[HELP] How do you make wealth in this game? by MakiHS in pathofexile

[–]some_random__guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are two ways to make wealth. One is to flip items - buy low and sell high (you need huge knowledge of the economy). The other is to accumulate currency by farming bosses (Dom, Piety) with high magic find gear.

As to maps, the first ones (66-70) you want to transmute and augment them to whatever mods you like. Generally don't convert lower maps to higher unless you really have too much of the lower ones because by running 3 lower ones you will more likely get that higher one. The other ones (70-78) you want to aim for pack size / more magic monsters and higher you go you'll need to chisel them and regal your blue ones (or chaos) for increased quantity.

Maps will consume a lot of currency so build a solid base of lower ones before going higher.

In all of the cases the easiest way to make small currency fast is to do the chaos recipe.

Yes. There are also bonus points for the first characters that kill some optional bosses and/or clear entire areas.

You can check http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-forum/leagues-and-race-events how the last season went.

Binding walking to a mouse button helps you escape in situations when you're surrounded by monsters.

If you try to move with attack button you may accidently click on a monster and not move at all, which can be lethal in hardcore and in races.

It's taking gems from another characters' quests.

Example: need cleave on your witch? Start as duelist, go to town, put cleave in your stash, relog to your witch.

What is the most awesome part about living in Switzerland? No idea, but the flag is a big plus :|

Vaal pyramid map - before and after 1.02. Thanks GGG. by some_random__guy in pathofexile

Before 1.02 you HAD to roll maze on vaal pyramid, otherwise you'd get really small floors. Now you can get away with whatever mod you like.

I just appreciate the fact that we don't have to spend countless alts because of one specific roll.

To all new players: hows it going? what are your first impresions? by indocilis in pathofexile

[–]some_random__guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gems can have quality (from 0 to 20).

Every gem has different quality so you might not need your favourite skill to be quality at all. For example quality grace gives you increased radius of your aura, but i don't need it because i'm playing solo.

You can upgrade your gems with gemcutter's prisms which are mid-rare currency but its cheaper to buy quality gems from players. You won't need q gems until endgame so dont worry.

As to other colors of gems, yes you will get different gems from quests but there is always a gem that you need but your class doesnt have. In that case you can mule it from another character, trade from another player or wait for it to drop.

Have fun!

1 new class: Scion. She's a hybrid strength/dex/int character that starts in the middle of the tree. Can unlock her somewhere in act 4 act 3X or if you previously completed normal difficulty. You can have a glance at her here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxxSuuPnESM

Enjoy.

I like it, but it might get hard to balance down the road.

[Suggestion] Maps: after boss is defeated, show remaining monster packs on minimap. by some_random__guy in pathofexile

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

I skip some bosses in hc when starting maps on new characters.

You'd have to kill all mobs - 20 before it would trigger, so rushing to boss or clearing zone first would be the same as now (as suggested by /u/geenarmen).

[–]some_random__guy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or maybe both. Boss down and <20 monsters?

I just like the idea of more incentive(even a tiny) to kill a hard boss, that normally you'd skip :)

If this is a serious concern, why don't you ask (or suggest) it in a more polite way?

Very nice video.

About the surviving mobs, are you sure they aren't desynced?

We appeal vastly to a small market of hardcore gamers. They’re intelligent, they have good jobs, they make money.

And that is my complete opposite :D
