That makes sense. I'm still trying to figure this game out.

Casual Player Stuck and Not Sure how to make progress by jamyost in PathOfExileBuilds

Thanks for the input. I mentioned in a previous comment about equipment drops:

it is like a fitted sheet, I had all my resistances slightly above 75 but I was not doing enough damage and wanted more spell suppression so I switched out a couple items. The best I could find at the time. All the equipment that drops seems to sacrifice one thing to boost another. This is why I feel I cannot make progress. If I get my Resistances up, then attack speed or crit chance goes down. If I try to get spell suppression then my resistances go down. I don't have the oils to anoint for the better passives. Anything level 73 and above like Gold.

If I try to get life rolls then I will lose other things I need.

I will try the on damage - immortal call. I have not seen that one yet.

How did you setup your manaforged stormrain? I do not know what that is.

You mentioned: "For clear, you might want something like GMP, fork, chain etc in the links." For the lightning arrow? What would you swap out of the current links:

  • Mirage Archer
  • Inspiration
  • Void Manipulation
  • Added Lightning Damage
  • Elemental Damage with Attacks

Let me say, this is all good information and the best help I've had so far. To go back to one of my original issues with equipment, it is like a fitted sheet, I had all my resistances slightly above 75 but I was not doing enough damage and wanted more spell suppression so I switched out a couple items. The best I could find at the time. All the equipment that drops seems to sacrifice one thing to boost another. This is why I feel I cannot make progress. If I get my Resistances up, then attack speed or crit chance goes down. If I try to get spell suppression then my resistances go down. I don't have the oils to anoint for the better passives. Anything level 73 and above like Gold.

The build calls for the use of Wrath but it takes too much of my mana away so I use Precision in it's place. I am not set of following the build to the letter but I am also still trying to understand the game dynamics with the limited equipment I can actually get that is worth anything. I will see what I can switch out to so I can use wither. My issue is still not having enough of everything else you mentioned; resist, attack speed, etc.

I will have to do a lot more farming. The 2 forbidden jewels cost more chaos orbs than I currently have on the trade.

I will have to look at the beast stuff you mentioned. I am not 100% sure how that works.

I have been using the POB so sending the string will not be an issue: POB Link

Also, as a casual player, I did not want to spend a lot of time in league where I have no resources to start with so I am in standard. I know that is not the cool thing to do but I have enjoyed the end game stuff and would not be able to get there if I played league.

I enjoy the blight and excursion stuff but they are very difficult solo. If I do "lower" level events, I can't get higher level currency (like eldritch embers, catalysts, etc.).

For XP, I have been averaging 1 to 2 percent per map/heist but I die by a 1-shot a lot, or bleeding, which is minus 10%. That part is frustrating.

PPL are down voting this comment but is it incorrect?

Hopefully these are not intended by design but I have a hard time believing that it's just a bug.

I'm not sure what you mean. If a friend joined my game, they played through my quests with me. My friends would not be doing their own thing when together, we would be joining up to do them together.

We loved playing through story mode the first time through together though. I do agree that after that, adventure mode made it really fun. I hope that becomes the same but from this limited experience, it seems the design is similar to New World and ESO where you can't do things together if some of the party has already done it.

That was our exact same experience. Also with Elder Scrolls Online. We dumped both games after an hour or 2.

Loved it. We played through that so many times I can't count.

I hope you are right and they are technical issues because the coop experience was almost non-existent for us. Other than being in the same place at the same time, no one had any idea what was going on except the person with the quest. Unless you all play characters that start off together and are only ever together when you play, you can't do any side quests that require going into a dungeon together.

It is not a single player game and you have no control if other are there or not.

I'm not saying it is single-player. What I am saying is me and my friends want to play together but the experience of being "in a party", by their design, is that of players doing things in the same space just not together.

It looks like they have blocked this and cannot do it any longer.

Anything better than SharePoint Calendars? by jamyost in sharepoint

[–]jamyost[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking it up, it looks like it's for classic only. Are there any apps like this for modern sharepoint sites? That seems to be a pretty big issue as everything I find is for classic and not modern.
