That's what the PoB is for... do your homework before starting the character/league so that you know what you're doing ahead of time. Set up and understand your PoB and use it as a guide book.
And check to see if i can outsmart the build guide..by searching for better deeps in the pob at lvl 7 by picking up 5 atk spd instead of 10 int for my Lightning Golemancer Nade Spammer...or whatever ridiculous name someone comes up with next build...
Going through campaign listening to podcast *Podcast ends* "I .... I .... I don't know what to do!!!" Proceed to spend up to an hour trying to find something to listen to, getting distracted by something else on the internet, and forgetting entirely that the game is running in the background.
from my experience, by the time you get to the last episode of a podcast, you won't remember anything from the earlier ones, so just relisten the whole show.
just one thing about blood aqueducts, the little branches in the map that go to the outside are guaranteed to have blue packs so i usually always go down there
You don't level slower because of penalties when you are at or slightly above level. You level slower because you COULD be in a higher level zone (which awards more XP) without penalties.
@@Vherax yea but that is not really relvant here as even if you kill a lot of monsters you not gonna be 4+(level/16) levels above the zone normaly. and he was talking about being AT zonne level. The Diffrence is really kust the level increase of the monsters (1.02*Mob_Level^2.2 to be precise.)
I genuinely enjoy levelling tbh, thanks to tyty I can spend 4-6 hours levelling, and I enjoy that absolute living hell out of that. I love using the skills at their absolute raw stage and see how they go up, then finally hitting act 4 and using all the link before hitting Malachai. Just keep moving, hit monsters, level, +/-1 level per area, and never EVER sit in encampments or your hideout unless you're crafting resistances or taking a small break
I cannot begin to thank you for some of these tips. As a complete noob the speed mechanics& not killing everything alone helped me get through the game so much faster. I cannot thank you enough!
This is by far the best laid out video to help me as a beginner. So much jargon and fast explanations out there. First time I've been able to actually follow a POE video
Quick tip: smoke mine + flame dash combo is SUPER OP. You may lazy practicing that combo at first ( like me ), but after I can use it properly I addicted to it. Trust me you will feel way faster using that combo.
I tell myself every League that I won't stop to kill monsters and I get maybe 2-3 screens in Act 1 before I instantly fail miserably at that and just kill too much.
Thank you! I needed this so much since I just finished campaign yesterday after 19 hours played lol Ritual in every zone and my "oh look shiny!" ADHD made me spend way too much time getting campaign done...
That's a good quick guide on the basics of leveling. Figured it out through years on Diablo 2 and such.. Been speeding at times (doing some top rankings !) but now mostly enjoying taking my time and using non-optimized fun skills to kill what's on the path :) But some casual friends are complaining about the lenght of leveling phase, doing exactly that. Killing everything, taking 5min between quests to update all gear.. while I just go mostly naked ^^
I'm only 6 minutes in the video and already learned so much. Also note that i probably have 300 hours on my belt. But that was mostly mapping. I always dreaded creating new characters. I appreciate your hardwork for making this video. The editing, script, that test dummy character and more.
I have 10k+ hours (playing since alpha, many years before Steam release), I never needed any skipping or anything to reach end campaign day 1-2, this is just another vid for $, they make anything nowadays. You'll win maybe 30 minutes, for a normie with job, wife and great friends it doesn't matter, it's for ladder racers. Just enjoy the game, rush nothing. I never rush, not one season. The fact he says you can learn this in 5 minutes but the video takes 15 minutes you know this dude is bad at calculating anyway.
@@robertfiorito9888 Me too. But I don't regret it at all. I found a 5L chest for my character, several more 5L chests for other characters, a 6L chest for my character, a 6L 2H Karui Chopper which another character will use, another 6L chest for another character, and then a TON of excellent Talismans as well. Long story short: I got three 6L items in Ritual during the Acts. I've never been offered a 6L in Ritual during maps. To have 3x 6L by the time you kill Act 10 Kitava (an Axe, a Str chest and an Int chest) is a pretty darn handy start to a league. So I'm really glad I took the time to do it.
@@porous9 It was different at the beginning of the league, they've clearly slaughtered Ritual's reward like one week or two later, i've quickly find a corrupted lvl 4 enlighten for example, now it's not at all the case anymore and i mostly skip it, it's almost useless depending of your character's ability to clean a map. The irony is a slow cleaner might aswell slow down even more for Rituals, it won't change much things for him. Faster ones are just losing their time, i don't know why they've butchered rituals this way, should i be happy for being able to buy one Exalt in 500 rituals, while up to many exalts value drops are waiting for me on the rest of the map ?
thanks for the amazing video, new player here, and after watching a few videos on leveling honestly this has been the best one for me, how simple it is layed out, easy to follow, got me through the entire story no problems
I'm just a beginner, got a few pointers from guides like this, and am creating my own build (ikr?) and slowly figuring everything out. It's a blast learning how the stuff works and synergizes. Not sure why most people are so focused on doing everything as efficiently and quickly as possible. There can be fun just learning slowly and soaking everything in, too. Another really great guide, though!
Well that's because when you finish the campaign once then there is not really a reason you wouldn't want to not finish it fast again. The real Path of Exile gameplay is on maps not on prologue named "Campaign" Edit: sheesh, just saw that it's been a year ago lol
dweller of the deep and marooned mariner are the 2 skill point quests I'd say you don't skip, because they are on the way. marooned mariner, you don't need to give it right away, but if you find the entrance, rush through the zone, pick up the allflame and continue, then go back later to give it to fairgraves from the waypoint you definitely didn't forget to pick dweller, if you get to the entrance, drop a portal in front, then go in, kill the dweller and go back to character selection, then pick the portal in town, if you find the stairs going up, drop the portal in the bottom, go to the ledge waypoint, back in town and pick the portal. note that the 2nd one, you have to go fast enough to not have the portal despawn, but it's fairly easy as long as you follow the don't genocide rule. the part 2 god killing skill points (i.e. minor pantheon), do skip till you're high level though. another couple of great tips is finding the sorceress bandit, there are stones near the path leading to her. for the act 8, where you are running through the houses, the only ones you need to move through have a corpse in front, the other ones won't, so don't go inside the buildings without corpses. for the quay with the resurrect tolman quest, follow the water border, and look for a narrow passage, the ankh will be there, and it's a pita to get back to, so pick it up while going through the first time, if you find clarissa before the exit, you definitely want to do the quest, because it's also annoying to get back to and it's fairly easy.
Alright, I'll give it to you. The multiple MS boots recipe is something I didn't know. And I play since 3.4 :| ty Later edit: little tip if you can't stop yourself from killing mobs, try to kill only the blue and yellow pack mobs. They give way more xp and honestly, it's just so juicy to see your xp bar fil by a big chunk at a time.
I´m the opposite of the video. I like levelling, watch my character grow, change equipment. Mapping is SOOOO boring, doing the same maps for almost no exp gain. I usually stop playing the char at level 87-90 max.
yeah, when I was a noob and didn't know how to properly do any build progression I would also stop at 90 coz i couldn't progress any further, everything was killing me, so I would re-roll, and try another build/char, and so on... and I also would convince myself "it is actually more fun this way" when in reality it wasn't, once you learn the ver end-game, you will see the fun is actually the epic battles vs elder, shaper, uber atziri/elder/shaper, sirus, conquerors, maven and invitations... not fucking campaign xD
That's it! This is exactly what I needed. Not some tytykiller 1h-ish video guide for racers. I'm no racer. I just want to go through levels faster. Specially at League Start. Thanks! A lot!
I didn't expect to learn anything from this video. Then you told me about how to use Smoke Mind, and it not only is a massive game changer for running through spaces, but it was exactly the moevement skill I needed for my league starter. I'm using elemental equilibrium, and it's SO much better than Dash!
Trip for altaholics that like having extra twink gear around. Use the extra reforge element crafts from harvest on some level 2-13 wands from the vendor in act 1 and you can get some pretty crazy +1 with other stat wands that you can use from act 1 to red maps often. You can do this with shields as well if you happen to prefer that. I also know that I maybe leveling a few toons each league and when I am IDing rares early in the league I save good life resis helm, gloves, boots, and rings that require level 40-50 since this is when you start the 2nd half and having something like a 40 life ring with 60-100 resis can be a game changer for living if your like me and know death running a boss is the faster way to do it but my pride makes me want to aim for story deathless. When I first started playing poe it was an average of 18 hours for the story now I can do it in 7 on league start and 4-5 with twink gear. Like all things the more you do it the faster you become and if you ever dislike a league maybe consider saying fuck the end game and do some build testing and alt leveling. I hated bestiary starting out because of the nets and spent the first month leveling 1-2 toons a week in the story and that more then cut my releveling him in half going forward.
I put mostly everything here into practice during a new league start. Except the spending time in town part. The single biggest thing that slows me down every time is managing sockets/links. It takes forever to find a 4L (with the correct base) from a vendor, and it's too early to have the currency to craft my own. Then I find something that's a huge upgrade overall, except I can't use it because it uncaps one resist by 30%, or it's in the same slot as my current 4L, or some other weird shit that I have to juggle. If I just ignore it and "keep moving" I never end up upgrading anything and the zone level power creep becomes apparent pretty quickly. I also never seem to have enough currency for resist/life from the crafting bench while leveling, even though I make sure to have a full inventory to sell whenever I get to the next town. What do?
Another added benefit of delaying the skill point quests is that free levels become more and more valuable as the amount of experience required to get to the next level increases
I still did league mechanic. Lots of chaos orbs. Got to about 60 before I even started doing the vendor recipe Also lots of 5 linked heard which I've been selling for chaos. I would say rituals are the only worthwhile mobs to kill
That's serious issue with campaign that encourages people to skip the content... Cant play like that. If I don't do all content then I feel like I'm missing on. Hence campaign takes me a week to go through
Thanks for stating at the start that this is not for HC players. As a HCSSF player myself, I kept giggling.. "use boots that ONLY have movement speed", "be underleveled", "skip passive skill point quests", "do labs as you find them".. I was like.... "oh that's how you can play this game?" :D
First time seeing your channel pop up. Just got my second character on my first league past campaign so this is super awesome I’ll remember this for the next character/league. I subscribed to show some love and appreciation for this video.
I'd just warn ppl not to overdo staying underleveled vs the zone you're currently in. If you fall -lower than those 3-4 levels (or more, depending on your level - check the experience formula on wiki) below the enemies in your current zone, you will actually take an experience penalty. I remember once rushing through the campaign, skipping most enemies. Was surprised to end up underleveled 10-12 levels by the time I reached act 4, just only because I didn't notice I went too fast and started loosing experience due to the level difference penalty.
The speed you can craft on boots is not limited to the item level of the boots. That said, 30% is the limit, and the character level required goes up as you craft higher movement speed.
Great video, thank you! I have also discovered that casters are good with Nomic's Storm boots because they give you 40% movement speed if you have full ES, more important they usually are much cheaper than even Wanderlust.
Thanks for the tips. I have around 1.4k+ hours in my poe and I still lack some speed to speedrun through campaign. Even tho i rush through areas, at some points i still kill some mobs to keep up with levels and do passive side guests :p ill save this video to my archives and try these next time
This is the video that I will link to all those Reddit posts about hating levelling. Before Maps the game is a running simulator. Don't go out of your way to kill things, don't even kill everything you run past(unless blue pack), try to use skills that kill as you keep running (orb of storms, ignites, poisons, minions, traps, totems). I'd even say to skip the trials unless you run into them or they are harder to get to later. Like if the closest waypoint is 2 zones from the trial (chamber of sin is one like that I think). Learn where the trials spawn. Like the one in tunnels will always be between the start of the zone and the waypoint, once you pass the waypoint don't look for it. Unless the ascendancy nodes are build enabling do Lab later. You will complete them faster and with less risk when you out level the Lab. Personally, I do all 3 labs just before Act 10 Kitava so my resistances aren't too bad in Lab. Builds these days are usually strong enough to brute force through campaign without ascendancy nodes. Learn where some skill point quests spawn so you can still do some as you level. Like the Daddy Crab, in the submerged passage there is a bridge that the zone narrows too, put a portal here because the daddy crab zone is to the left or right of that bridge. Go all the way to ledge waypoint, go to town, go to the portal and do daddy crab quest. Then you can resume from the ledge after the side quest is complete. Tip about Blood Aqueducts, you can start chaos recipe collection. Just grab, don't ID, put in a tab for later, and sell for 2c. It takes more time than just running through the zone but it gives you a nice buffer of currency to spend before maps to fix the gear that is bad from all the rushing. It's also a good place to farm for Humility cards (the get much less chance to drop once you are above 70 I think). You can even level in BA to 70 while farming chaos recipe and Humility, then start maps with a 6link and currency.
Yeah the campaign is always the biggest dampener to my motivation. Makes me regularly skip a League if it doesn't look interesting enough (which is a good thing, either way) - but I guess I'll try to be more focused this time around. Nice set of tips, especially with the Smoke Mine / left click Detonate :)
And here's the ONLY point where diablo 3 does better than PoE: you don't need to do the campaing after you've done it once... NEVER, even on a new season. You buy the game, play the campaing, enjoy the story, watch all those nice cutscenes, enrage against blizzard when they kill cain. Done? Okay, you get adventure mode, minor rifts, greater rifts... on all characters that you already have and any new character you make. Forever. "Oh, but in diablo 2"... yeap, in diablo 2 NOBODY plays the damn campaing. Here's how one level on diablo 2: Get lvl 6, save cain on your own, shouldn't take more than a few minutes. Trist runs to lvl 15. Finish A1, move to A2, rush trough it ignoring 90% of the content. Rush trough act 3 to get faster to meph. Tomb runs untill arround 22/23. Rush A4, don't do forge, don't do izual unless finding him midway. Kill Di, rush A5, get 24 before reaching ancys, do ancys, Baal... baal runs to lvl 45, rush trough nightmare, nm runs to arround 60. On 60 you should be able to at least get to the ancients on a rush without any problem. All this considering you'r starting a ladder. If it's mid ladder: make character, get grushed to a5. Level to 6, save cain. Trist runs to 15 - tomb runs to 24, ask someone to help with ancients, baal runs to 45, ask nm rush, baal runs to 60, ask for hell rush 4 forge, baal runs forever. PoE is just nor slower than grim dawn on that aspect, and even grim dawn give you the ability to use Crucible to level and gear a new character to get on a build! Here's how I think PoE should work: 1st character on league - play the damn campaing. It's good, it has a nice story, the devs lost a lot of time developing it. 2nd character - you don't need to repeat everything you just did. Go to yout HO, get "low level maps" from npc, those maps will be based on the areas a character should be doing by that time and arround those level on the campaing. Level by doing those maps, stop midway to get labs done. Got to lvl 60? Go do key skill and resists quests, kill kitava, get to end game mapping.
@@fuinharlz Diablo 3 is the most boring game once you unlock adventure mode. Grinding the same nephalem and greater rifts everyday is not fun. It has the worst endgame I have ever seen in a game.
@@danylo211 Have you ever played diablo 2 on the battle net? If not, here's how you play: get lvl 5 and save cain. Find "trist run" games, do then untill arround 14, 15. Get a rush to a5 before ancients. Tomb runs untill 24, do ancients, baal runs to 35, kill baal and go to nm, rush to baal, baal runs to 60, kill baal nm, go to hell, rush hell, baal runs rest your character life. What kills diablo III is not the "repetitive end game", we had that on diablo II and still play it to this day. WHat killed diablo 3 is the lack of purpose on the runs. Yeah, we know, there's a rank, wich nobody gives a damn... on diablo 2 there are some items so rare that just arround 10% of everyone who ever played diablo 2 found on a drop. On D3 you get the damn best itens on the game in hours. There's literally zero magic find hunt, no build diversity, nothing. The problem on PoE campaing is the same you'r talking about the end game on D3... it's repetitive, in a bad way. After you complete it in one character, you don't want to spend hours again to level another character to test a different build, a different mechanic. And doind all acts again is basically the same as repeating greater rifts over and over.
I usually take two Quicksilvers and alternate uses so they fill up at the same time. Go from some uptime to a lot of uptime. Helps if you have a pack drought, hate losing momentum.
Another tip: You don't need to talk to NPC's for the quests. You just talk to them when you want to get the rewards. Just go straight to where you should go. Saves a LOT of time. Pull up 'Badger's Leveling Guide' on reddit. It has an infographic type of the acts that would guide people where to go.
great video as usual! love that you are doing crackling lance/golem build since that is my league starter and it erases bosses and has decent clear speed
Even after 4k hours i can learn a few things. I did not know how to check which quest gives passive points, now i know. I usually just run straight to the boss, equip some boss killing spells or minions which i reskill later on after champaign and get back to sidequests after 2nd kitava.
Dweller of the deep: put a portal when you find the stairs go to ledge and teleport to town, take the waypoint and find the flooded depths to kill him. Learned that from tyty too.
Such a good vid. Sent this to a bunch of mates. Would love a list of what map to Go and when, log out and back in when? I have followed a guide but it tends to send me all over chasing the skill points.
this should really be directed to people that have years of experience with this game and have memorized maps, not to new players at all. just play at ur own paste the campaign is actually fun and what is boring is the endgame maps are one of the biggest hurtle, I think of it as Korean grind loading instances over and over again with a few different modifiers... but maybe im doing it wrong I plays this game 5 years ago and just got back to it. a lot has changed
@@Miley_00 FIrst time playing? Sadly PoE is a very hard game, and if you are new you won't have a good build, you will just hit a wall. That said is an important learing experience to fuck up on your first playtrough. Truth is, without a cohesive build, it's just impossible to advance. You can either make a build with your current character (You will need...a lot of regret orbs) or start over. Just google PoE builds and pick one that is not super expensive and good for beginners. I know it sucks to start over, but that's what it is. You will have to do this every league anyway. As a casual player that still has 400hs in the game (It's nothing compared to "real" players) I feel you. If you need anything I can help you to the best of my habilities.
(if you got something else on left click) I always put smoke mine on E. Then D to travel. I used to think the "throw" and "trigger" mechanic was super awkward, but after 5mins practice with E,D you realise its a single simple motion, press E, drag finger down over D, its like a little swipe on the keyboard rather than a press. ed ed ed ed ed ed ed eded ed ede edededed Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
@@janovmi2 how even, the xp penalty alone should make it nearly impossible to cross 70 or so unless you are repeating zones like farming blood aquas. Even then getting levels past 78 is gonna be insane.
I'm not a hardcore speed runner by any means but I can usually get through all 10 Acts in 8-9 hours with doing all the passive skill quests, all trials for labs (excluding map trials), no quicksilver flasks. I absolutely, whole heartedly agree with not doing the league mechanic. :P Of course this is just with a league starter character. With some currency and leveling gear it goes much faster. :P
The main thing that slows me down with my first char in a new league is....the league itself :> Acts 1-3 I'm usually figuring it out having fun. THEN I will party and power through untill I'm like 3-6 levels behind, farm and do league mechanic till I'm on par and contnue. Especially love doing aquaduct for league mechanics as it's straight forward very rarly will you miss the league mechanic if your just running through.
My first charter I think is in the 50s for lvl starting act 5. As went back to make a 2nd charter a scion. Which feel free to correct my thought on this build for my scion. A bow/minion build. Then sword and shield for alt weapon
wall im a kind of a player once i finish a campaign i stop playing a game because it just becoming repetitive like maps in this game how many can u do before u get bored from that grinding? 10, 20,100? I did 10 maps today and I'm like bleee let me play something else...
Here are some friendly tips and **step-by-step strategy:** 0. **Stop being in denial.** If you are taking 2+ days to get to maps then you are wasting SO much time. 1. KNOW your build BEFORE you start playing so you can Ctrl-Click nodes on the skill tree. e.g. Print it out 2. Turn in _multiple quests_ at once 3. Skip side quests 4. Use 3x flasks of Quicksilver 5. Change skill 1 to MOVE ONLY 6. Bind SPACEBAR to skill 1 (Move only). This will help prevent Carpal Tunnel in your right hand. 7. Use flame dash 8. Use smoke mine 9. Use/crafts boots with movement speed 10. ALWAYS keep moving towards the zone exit 11. Only kill to recharge flasks 12. Learn the zone layouts. 13. If you are spending more then 10 mins in a zone you are spending too long 14. Stop picking up crap. SKIP wisdom scrolls, portal scrolls, armor scraps, whetstones, white, blue, and yellow (until every 20 levels) 15. Use a stricter loot filter 16. Practice, Practice, Practice 17. Time yourself. See your play time with the built-in command: /played 18. /played even works on consoles 19. Play off a SSD (NVMe or M.2) 20. On PS4 upgrade the shitty 5200 RPM hard drive to an SSD. Takes 5 mins to swap the drive out. Plus (45 mins to backup and 45 mins to restore.) 21. Set _reasonable_ goals. Start with 24 hours (3 days of 8 hours.) Then aim for 16 hours. Then aim for 8 hours. 22. Know you're limits. If you have Carpal Tunnel you will never be as fast as others. 23. Ctrl click on waypoints to bring up the instance manager. i.e. Farm Blood Aquaducts for Humilty/Vanity divination cards for a Tabula Rasa. It _is_ possible to get to maps in 4 hrs. tyrykiller constantly showcases doing it. Realistically 6 to 8 hrs is a great time. Good luck!
WOW Ive been playing for awhile & yes its so hard not to stop & kill stuff BUT I want to try this as it seems to take forever to get to Maps! Thanks BD
Everything in this video is some cool advice EXCEPT the passive points. don't skip them. You will hate having to go back to get them, do ALL of the passive point quest's AS you get to the zone's and as you're leveling. 1. You won't for get about them and 2. you won't EVER have to step foot back into the campaign after getting to maps. Always Always ALWAYS Do the passive's quests as you get to the zone's and as you're leveing. don't ever skip them that is the ONLY BAD/Terrible advice in this video, the Rest? Was almost spot on. just get the highest move speed boots you can/use skills that increase your movespeed and use your movement abilities. Always be moving and Always be using your movement skills as you can.
Well the thing is, I love to kill all the mobs. I love taking my time going through this game. I like walking my own path when creating a character. My Templar ended up being an aura and totem healer with a minion that does damage and heals on hit with his weapon, along with zombie minions. My Witch became a necromancer that has zombies, can summon skeletons, and raging skulls and her minions can summon phantasms when they hit enemies. She also uses Fire Wall which does more damage in a smaller area. My Shadow is being turned into WoW type hunter using zombies instead of a tamed pet. I'll probably turn a ranger into a rogue as I think it would do better as that. But you get the point. I follow my own path and just do what I want.
I love your content and glad I found the channel - will probably be doing one of your builds for league start next league, but... I will pick up every scroll I see and you can't stop me. No scroll left behind
It's a wonder GGG hasn't started selling skip Act 1-10 boosts yet since *everyone* (except me) hates to do the campaign and is always being called the 10 act tutorial. They should just start every character that boosted or finished the campaign once on an account to skip past it and begin at 75 with maps enabled*. Would that make you all happy?? :) *will only be honored on Standard League server.
I follow all that you are saying, but find as soon as I get to a boss, I find that I keep dying. I am following guides, good guides but just never get the equipment I need and find myself getting through the acts fast, but the stinken bosses, mostly the dungeon boss and the guard in act 3.
Honestly, they need to just add an alternate way of leveling. A pre-map system unlocked once you have one character through the campaign. Then have the quest rewards get handed out through various level points. Would make it quite a bit more fun.
@@siignova yeah. It was really fun the first time and replaying it after few years when getting back to game in delirium . But in heist. Was just going trough the motions. Campaign is fun, but the way content is done, if you are not getting dozens of chaos orbs per hour it seems like waste of time. Hence people are recommending to not engage the content until maps. Skip quests, don't figh monsters, just run to next area. Alternative way for players to get to end game grind would be preferable
@@Sammysapphira Easy sure, but time consuming. Remember, around 90% of players rarely even get to Red tier maps. The main issue for this is time and build choice. By having an alternate leveling method, that meant more to your character at end game, we could get more players in the end game. I am good with needing to hit maps with a character in your game mode to unlock this method, but lets be honest, the campaign is boring, so it also solves that problem.
I also struggle with damage early on. On a new build I’m not good at getting correct gems and links to help with the damage to quickly kill monsters… so it takes me 3-4 shots to kill magic monsters
When I tried to just keep moving and I used smoke mine and flame dash and avoided as many mobs as i could, I finished the campaign in 6 hours at level 47 with no gear for maps. 😳
Two trials of ascendancy I always skip are in the crypt (act 2) and in the catacombs (act 3), because they are out of my way. I wait after completing the first mission in act 4, then I come back, then I do the first Lab... way faster ;P Also press tab to check the lvl of the current area... If you are at the same lvl, skip most of the mobs and start killing the ones at the next area. And for God's sake, talk to the NPC in Act 3 AFTER getting the way point in Crematorium and get the way point in the Lab on the way out (you save A LOT of walking)
Great video, I love the way you explained something most players realise after throwing away 6-7 characters. To all those who say that skipping quests for passive points is a mistake, you are delusional, because you can turn back once you are done with the campaing and finish them all for less than an hour, also most maps endgame are the same as those in the campaign. The movement recepies were unknown to me, so thank you for that, also following your guidance and ofcourse tytykillers speedruns I managed to level a Ranger from act 1 to act 6 in 2 hours. I have to work. so the conclusion is no side quests, just rush it, no need for gear, nothing. Also, This is not helpful for hardcore players.
I know its necro but its funny that u take tips from tytykiller yet u assume that backtracking since a10 to redo the passive point quests is 'faster'. Speedrunners do them as they go same as trials for a reason. Not to mention some sidequests are amazing and dont take almost time at all, like den a2 for second quicksilver, some 4 links yellow gear if missing etc.
I think the most important one is stop killing everything and stop interacting with every mechanic (although I interact with new league mechanics to learn but this slows me down quite a bit). I consider finishing the campaign as having all skill points + lab. If I just rush to maps without those my brain will still feel like I'm not finished with the campaign.
Imma do all of this but then spend 20 minutes looking at my passive tree in town
and 30 minutes reading my skills
Not to mention reading up on/looking for gems.
That's what the PoB is for... do your homework before starting the character/league so that you know what you're doing ahead of time. Set up and understand your PoB and use it as a guide book.
Lolllll same
And check to see if i can outsmart the build guide..by searching for better deeps in the pob at lvl 7 by picking up 5 atk spd instead of 10 int for my Lightning Golemancer Nade Spammer...or whatever ridiculous name someone comes up with next build...

not playing at 2x speed? You really aren't making much of an effort to go faster, huh?
Maybe he meant 5 plus 10 minutes
Nah, he just repeats it 3 times!
You gotta skip through the video. Get that movement/watch speed up
@@TheCowboyCurtis do people not use that?
I go through the campaign with at least 3 quicksilver flasks, and only stop to kill mobs when i need flask charge, that helped me a lot.
Try hardcore
Good for you.
Going through campaign listening to podcast
*Podcast ends*
"I .... I .... I don't know what to do!!!"
Proceed to spend up to an hour trying to find something to listen to, getting distracted by something else on the internet, and forgetting entirely that the game is running in the background.
Ohh I feel that^^
sounds about right
Yea a bunch of my total time played is just sitting in town watching youtube videos
from my experience, by the time you get to the last episode of a podcast, you won't remember anything from the earlier ones, so just relisten the whole show.
just one thing about blood aqueducts, the little branches in the map that go to the outside are guaranteed to have blue packs so i usually always go down there

And a bonus, while farming BA, you can drop divinity cards for tabula rasa. Specially handy in the beginning of the league/SSF
You don't level slower because of penalties when you are at or slightly above level. You level slower because you COULD be in a higher level zone (which awards more XP) without penalties.
How to explain alternative cost for gamers! Brilliant!
Yes, but also there is an actual penalty when you're more than a few levels higher than the monsters you're killing. Those two effects add up.
@@Vherax yea but that is not really relvant here as even if you kill a lot of monsters you not gonna be 4+(level/16) levels above the zone normaly. and he was talking about being AT zonne level.
The Diffrence is really kust the level increase of the monsters (1.02*Mob_Level^2.2 to be precise.)

Sir, where does obsessively stopping at every vendor looking for good links fit in here?
Dont forget to check all the vendors everytime you level up!
Yea, and browse the market and waste resources on stuff you dont really need.
Lmao, I just started playing the game today and I go around all of the locations and kill all the enemies, it’s fun :)
I genuinely enjoy levelling tbh, thanks to tyty I can spend 4-6 hours levelling, and I enjoy that absolute living hell out of that.
I love using the skills at their absolute raw stage and see how they go up, then finally hitting act 4 and using all the link before hitting Malachai.
Just keep moving, hit monsters, level, +/-1 level per area, and never EVER sit in encampments or your hideout unless you're crafting resistances or taking a small break
I cannot begin to thank you for some of these tips. As a complete noob the speed mechanics& not killing everything alone helped me get through the game so much faster. I cannot thank you enough!

This is by far the best laid out video to help me as a beginner. So much jargon and fast explanations out there. First time I've been able to actually follow a POE video
Quick tip: smoke mine + flame dash combo is SUPER OP. You may lazy practicing that combo at first ( like me ), but after I can use it properly I addicted to it. Trust me you will feel way faster using that combo.
First 30 seconds..
I like this guy already.
I tell myself every League that I won't stop to kill monsters and I get maybe 2-3 screens in Act 1 before I instantly fail miserably at that and just kill too much.
Thank you! I needed this so much since I just finished campaign yesterday after 19 hours played lol
Ritual in every zone and my "oh look shiny!" ADHD made me spend way too much time getting campaign done...
Sweet, even for people with experience this still help alot
That's a good quick guide on the basics of leveling.
Figured it out through years on Diablo 2 and such.. Been speeding at times (doing some top rankings !) but now mostly enjoying taking my time and using non-optimized fun skills to kill what's on the path :)
But some casual friends are complaining about the lenght of leveling phase, doing exactly that. Killing everything, taking 5min between quests to update all gear.. while I just go mostly naked ^^
I'm only 6 minutes in the video and already learned so much. Also note that i probably have 300 hours on my belt. But that was mostly mapping.
I always dreaded creating new characters.
I appreciate your hardwork for making this video.
The editing, script, that test dummy character and more.
I have 10k+ hours (playing since alpha, many years before Steam release), I never needed any skipping or anything to reach end campaign day 1-2, this is just another vid for $, they make anything nowadays. You'll win maybe 30 minutes, for a normie with job, wife and great friends it doesn't matter, it's for ladder racers. Just enjoy the game, rush nothing. I never rush, not one season. The fact he says you can learn this in 5 minutes but the video takes 15 minutes you know this dude is bad at calculating anyway.
@@KiffJRockka not like hes making alot of money anyway. if he does this for a living he hast to make some money somehow.

My problem was FOMO ritual interactions because of the crazy stuff I saw on Reddit.
Took me days to get through the acts because of that
@@robertfiorito9888 Me too. But I don't regret it at all. I found a 5L chest for my character, several more 5L chests for other characters, a 6L chest for my character, a 6L 2H Karui Chopper which another character will use, another 6L chest for another character, and then a TON of excellent Talismans as well. Long story short: I got three 6L items in Ritual during the Acts. I've never been offered a 6L in Ritual during maps. To have 3x 6L by the time you kill Act 10 Kitava (an Axe, a Str chest and an Int chest) is a pretty darn handy start to a league. So I'm really glad I took the time to do it.
@@porous9 WOW. I found somew good stuff but not that good.
I'd rather be in maps in 7 hours. The league mechanics are generally more rewarding in maps. If you just push through maps fast you'll make money
@@porous9 It was different at the beginning of the league, they've clearly slaughtered Ritual's reward like one week or two later, i've quickly find a corrupted lvl 4 enlighten for example, now it's not at all the case anymore and i mostly skip it, it's almost useless depending of your character's ability to clean a map. The irony is a slow cleaner might aswell slow down even more for Rituals, it won't change much things for him. Faster ones are just losing their time, i don't know why they've butchered rituals this way, should i be happy for being able to buy one Exalt in 500 rituals, while up to many exalts value drops are waiting for me on the rest of the map ?
thanks for the amazing video, new player here, and after watching a few videos on leveling honestly this has been the best one for me, how simple it is layed out, easy to follow, got me through the entire story no problems
instructions unclear, threw my computer through the window
I'm just a beginner, got a few pointers from guides like this, and am creating my own build (ikr?) and slowly figuring everything out. It's a blast learning how the stuff works and synergizes. Not sure why most people are so focused on doing everything as efficiently and quickly as possible. There can be fun just learning slowly and soaking everything in, too.
Another really great guide, though!
Well that's because when you finish the campaign once then there is not really a reason you wouldn't want to not finish it fast again. The real Path of Exile gameplay is on maps not on prologue named "Campaign"
Edit: sheesh, just saw that it's been a year ago lol
dweller of the deep and marooned mariner are the 2 skill point quests I'd say you don't skip, because they are on the way.
marooned mariner, you don't need to give it right away, but if you find the entrance, rush through the zone, pick up the allflame and continue, then go back later to give it to fairgraves from the waypoint you definitely didn't forget to pick
dweller, if you get to the entrance, drop a portal in front, then go in, kill the dweller and go back to character selection, then pick the portal in town, if you find the stairs going up, drop the portal in the bottom, go to the ledge waypoint, back in town and pick the portal.
note that the 2nd one, you have to go fast enough to not have the portal despawn, but it's fairly easy as long as you follow the don't genocide rule.
the part 2 god killing skill points (i.e. minor pantheon), do skip till you're high level though.
another couple of great tips is finding the sorceress bandit, there are stones near the path leading to her. for the act 8, where you are running through the houses, the only ones you need to move through have a corpse in front, the other ones won't, so don't go inside the buildings without corpses.
for the quay with the resurrect tolman quest, follow the water border, and look for a narrow passage, the ankh will be there, and it's a pita to get back to, so pick it up while going through the first time, if you find clarissa before the exit, you definitely want to do the quest, because it's also annoying to get back to and it's fairly easy.
Alright, I'll give it to you. The multiple MS boots recipe is something I didn't know. And I play since 3.4 :| ty
Later edit: little tip if you can't stop yourself from killing mobs, try to kill only the blue and yellow pack mobs. They give way more xp and honestly, it's just so juicy to see your xp bar fil by a big chunk at a time.
I´m the opposite of the video. I like levelling, watch my character grow, change equipment. Mapping is SOOOO boring, doing the same maps for almost no exp gain. I usually stop playing the char at level 87-90 max.
yeah, when I was a noob and didn't know how to properly do any build progression I would also stop at 90 coz i couldn't progress any further, everything was killing me, so I would re-roll, and try another build/char, and so on... and I also would convince myself "it is actually more fun this way" when in reality it wasn't, once you learn the ver end-game, you will see the fun is actually the epic battles vs elder, shaper, uber atziri/elder/shaper, sirus, conquerors, maven and invitations... not fucking campaign xD

@@MrKinir He's talking about the laughable death in Softcore. Oh, no my exp...
Ngl death pretty irrelivant until post 70 lul u get ur exp back first pack of blue mobs

That's it! This is exactly what I needed. Not some tytykiller 1h-ish video guide for racers. I'm no racer. I just want to go through levels faster. Specially at League Start. Thanks! A lot!
I didn't expect to learn anything from this video. Then you told me about how to use Smoke Mind, and it not only is a massive game changer for running through spaces, but it was exactly the moevement skill I needed for my league starter. I'm using elemental equilibrium, and it's SO much better than Dash!
Trip for altaholics that like having extra twink gear around. Use the extra reforge element crafts from harvest on some level 2-13 wands from the vendor in act 1 and you can get some pretty crazy +1 with other stat wands that you can use from act 1 to red maps often. You can do this with shields as well if you happen to prefer that. I also know that I maybe leveling a few toons each league and when I am IDing rares early in the league I save good life resis helm, gloves, boots, and rings that require level 40-50 since this is when you start the 2nd half and having something like a 40 life ring with 60-100 resis can be a game changer for living if your like me and know death running a boss is the faster way to do it but my pride makes me want to aim for story deathless.
When I first started playing poe it was an average of 18 hours for the story now I can do it in 7 on league start and 4-5 with twink gear. Like all things the more you do it the faster you become and if you ever dislike a league maybe consider saying fuck the end game and do some build testing and alt leveling. I hated bestiary starting out because of the nets and spent the first month leveling 1-2 toons a week in the story and that more then cut my releveling him in half going forward.
I put mostly everything here into practice during a new league start. Except the spending time in town part. The single biggest thing that slows me down every time is managing sockets/links. It takes forever to find a 4L (with the correct base) from a vendor, and it's too early to have the currency to craft my own. Then I find something that's a huge upgrade overall, except I can't use it because it uncaps one resist by 30%, or it's in the same slot as my current 4L, or some other weird shit that I have to juggle. If I just ignore it and "keep moving" I never end up upgrading anything and the zone level power creep becomes apparent pretty quickly. I also never seem to have enough currency for resist/life from the crafting bench while leveling, even though I make sure to have a full inventory to sell whenever I get to the next town. What do?
Another added benefit of delaying the skill point quests is that free levels become more and more valuable as the amount of experience required to get to the next level increases
Learned:
Be underlevelled
The speed boots recipe
Don't do league mechanic.....
I feel liek an absolute noob right now
make sense when u wanna play a game but you have to skip 3/4 of it
I still did league mechanic. Lots of chaos orbs. Got to about 60 before I even started doing the vendor recipe
Also lots of 5 linked heard which I've been selling for chaos. I would say rituals are the only worthwhile mobs to kill
That's serious issue with campaign that encourages people to skip the content...
Cant play like that. If I don't do all content then I feel like I'm missing on.
Hence campaign takes me a week to go through
i learned about smoke mine... it sucked when i tried it, since never knew how it actually worked >< it is amazing!!!
Thanks for stating at the start that this is not for HC players.
As a HCSSF player myself, I kept giggling.. "use boots that ONLY have movement speed", "be underleveled", "skip passive skill point quests", "do labs as you find them"..
I was like.... "oh that's how you can play this game?" :D
First time seeing your channel pop up. Just got my second character on my first league past campaign so this is super awesome I’ll remember this for the next character/league. I subscribed to show some love and appreciation for this video.
Finally a super well round explain leveling guide! awsome congratz BD
I'd just warn ppl not to overdo staying underleveled vs the zone you're currently in. If you fall -lower than those 3-4 levels (or more, depending on your level - check the experience formula on wiki) below the enemies in your current zone, you will actually take an experience penalty.
I remember once rushing through the campaign, skipping most enemies. Was surprised to end up underleveled 10-12 levels by the time I reached act 4, just only because I didn't notice I went too fast and started loosing experience due to the level difference penalty.
Ctrl+click on tree page confirms the point (no need to accept the allocated points)
The speed you can craft on boots is not limited to the item level of the boots. That said, 30% is the limit, and the character level required goes up as you craft higher movement speed.
Great video, thank you! I have also discovered that casters are good with Nomic's Storm boots because they give you 40% movement speed if you have full ES, more important they usually are much cheaper than even Wanderlust.
Thanks for the tips. I have around 1.4k+ hours in my poe and I still lack some speed to speedrun through campaign. Even tho i rush through areas, at some points i still kill some mobs to keep up with levels and do passive side guests :p ill save this video to my archives and try these next time
I played one of your builds for first time so noob friendly thanks!
This is the video that I will link to all those Reddit posts about hating levelling. Before Maps the game is a running simulator. Don't go out of your way to kill things, don't even kill everything you run past(unless blue pack), try to use skills that kill as you keep running (orb of storms, ignites, poisons, minions, traps, totems).
I'd even say to skip the trials unless you run into them or they are harder to get to later. Like if the closest waypoint is 2 zones from the trial (chamber of sin is one like that I think). Learn where the trials spawn. Like the one in tunnels will always be between the start of the zone and the waypoint, once you pass the waypoint don't look for it. Unless the ascendancy nodes are build enabling do Lab later. You will complete them faster and with less risk when you out level the Lab. Personally, I do all 3 labs just before Act 10 Kitava so my resistances aren't too bad in Lab. Builds these days are usually strong enough to brute force through campaign without ascendancy nodes.
Learn where some skill point quests spawn so you can still do some as you level. Like the Daddy Crab, in the submerged passage there is a bridge that the zone narrows too, put a portal here because the daddy crab zone is to the left or right of that bridge. Go all the way to ledge waypoint, go to town, go to the portal and do daddy crab quest. Then you can resume from the ledge after the side quest is complete.
Tip about Blood Aqueducts, you can start chaos recipe collection. Just grab, don't ID, put in a tab for later, and sell for 2c. It takes more time than just running through the zone but it gives you a nice buffer of currency to spend before maps to fix the gear that is bad from all the rushing. It's also a good place to farm for Humility cards (the get much less chance to drop once you are above 70 I think). You can even level in BA to 70 while farming chaos recipe and Humility, then start maps with a 6link and currency.
Yeah the campaign is always the biggest dampener to my motivation. Makes me regularly skip a League if it doesn't look interesting enough (which is a good thing, either way) - but I guess I'll try to be more focused this time around. Nice set of tips, especially with the Smoke Mine / left click Detonate :)
And here's the ONLY point where diablo 3 does better than PoE: you don't need to do the campaing after you've done it once... NEVER, even on a new season. You buy the game, play the campaing, enjoy the story, watch all those nice cutscenes, enrage against blizzard when they kill cain. Done? Okay, you get adventure mode, minor rifts, greater rifts... on all characters that you already have and any new character you make. Forever.
"Oh, but in diablo 2"... yeap, in diablo 2 NOBODY plays the damn campaing. Here's how one level on diablo 2:
Get lvl 6, save cain on your own, shouldn't take more than a few minutes.
Trist runs to lvl 15. Finish A1, move to A2, rush trough it ignoring 90% of the content. Rush trough act 3 to get faster to meph. Tomb runs untill arround 22/23. Rush A4, don't do forge, don't do izual unless finding him midway. Kill Di, rush A5, get 24 before reaching ancys, do ancys, Baal... baal runs to lvl 45, rush trough nightmare, nm runs to arround 60. On 60 you should be able to at least get to the ancients on a rush without any problem.
All this considering you'r starting a ladder. If it's mid ladder: make character, get grushed to a5. Level to 6, save cain. Trist runs to 15 - tomb runs to 24, ask someone to help with ancients, baal runs to 45, ask nm rush, baal runs to 60, ask for hell rush 4 forge, baal runs forever.
PoE is just nor slower than grim dawn on that aspect, and even grim dawn give you the ability to use Crucible to level and gear a new character to get on a build!
Here's how I think PoE should work:
1st character on league - play the damn campaing. It's good, it has a nice story, the devs lost a lot of time developing it.
2nd character - you don't need to repeat everything you just did. Go to yout HO, get "low level maps" from npc, those maps will be based on the areas a character should be doing by that time and arround those level on the campaing. Level by doing those maps, stop midway to get labs done. Got to lvl 60? Go do key skill and resists quests, kill kitava, get to end game mapping.
@@fuinharlz Diablo 3 is the most boring game once you unlock adventure mode. Grinding the same nephalem and greater rifts everyday is not fun. It has the worst endgame I have ever seen in a game.
@@danylo211 Have you ever played diablo 2 on the battle net? If not, here's how you play:
get lvl 5 and save cain. Find "trist run" games, do then untill arround 14, 15. Get a rush to a5 before ancients. Tomb runs untill 24, do ancients, baal runs to 35, kill baal and go to nm, rush to baal, baal runs to 60, kill baal nm, go to hell, rush hell, baal runs rest your character life.
What kills diablo III is not the "repetitive end game", we had that on diablo II and still play it to this day. WHat killed diablo 3 is the lack of purpose on the runs. Yeah, we know, there's a rank, wich nobody gives a damn... on diablo 2 there are some items so rare that just arround 10% of everyone who ever played diablo 2 found on a drop. On D3 you get the damn best itens on the game in hours. There's literally zero magic find hunt, no build diversity, nothing.
The problem on PoE campaing is the same you'r talking about the end game on D3... it's repetitive, in a bad way. After you complete it in one character, you don't want to spend hours again to level another character to test a different build, a different mechanic. And doind all acts again is basically the same as repeating greater rifts over and over.
@@fuinharlz Oh yeah, I agree. I should have elaborated on my previous message. Diablo 3 is repetitive with no purpose.
I usually take two Quicksilvers and alternate uses so they fill up at the same time. Go from some uptime to a lot of uptime. Helps if you have a pack drought, hate losing momentum.
sounds about right. that advice is very similar to so many other game guides and yet we get distracted. so funny.
my strat is get flame dash asap and focus on story quests then do quests for passives at end. maybe not fastest method but it works for me.
Another tip: You don't need to talk to NPC's for the quests. You just talk to them when you want to get the rewards. Just go straight to where you should go. Saves a LOT of time.
Pull up 'Badger's Leveling Guide' on reddit. It has an infographic type of the acts that would guide people where to go.
great video as usual! love that you are doing crackling lance/golem build since that is my league starter and it erases bosses and has decent clear speed
Great video. I'll definately use this to level next time. Never thought about passing any passives to get them later.
Even after 4k hours i can learn a few things. I did not know how to check which quest gives passive points, now i know.
I usually just run straight to the boss, equip some boss killing spells or minions which i reskill later on after champaign and get back to sidequests after 2nd kitava.
Dweller of the deep: put a portal when you find the stairs go to ledge and teleport to town, take the waypoint and find the flooded depths to kill him. Learned that from tyty too.
What's the cutoff for getting 100 percent experience within a zone? I read it was something around +/-3 levels.
No idea, i was super overleveled from the start.
IT depends, when Ur lvl 5 its Like 2 Levels for 100% but when Ur lvl 50 its more like 4-5 Zone levels. There are nice graphs online

this should really be directed to people that have years of experience with this game and have memorized maps, not to new players at all. just play at ur own paste the campaign is actually fun and what is boring is the endgame maps are one of the biggest hurtle, I think of it as Korean grind loading instances over and over again with a few different modifiers... but maybe im doing it wrong I plays this game 5 years ago and just got back to it. a lot has changed

@@Miley_00 FIrst time playing? Sadly PoE is a very hard game, and if you are new you won't have a good build, you will just hit a wall. That said is an important learing experience to fuck up on your first playtrough.
Truth is, without a cohesive build, it's just impossible to advance.
You can either make a build with your current character (You will need...a lot of regret orbs) or start over. Just google PoE builds and pick one that is not super expensive and good for beginners.
I know it sucks to start over, but that's what it is. You will have to do this every league anyway. As a casual player that still has 400hs in the game (It's nothing compared to "real" players) I feel you.

(if you got something else on left click) I always put smoke mine on E. Then D to travel.

I absolutely, whole heartedly agree with not doing the league mechanic. :P Of course this is just with a league starter character. With some currency and leveling gear it goes much faster. :P
The main thing that slows me down with my first char in a new league is....the league itself :> Acts 1-3 I'm usually figuring it out having fun. THEN I will party and power through untill I'm like 3-6 levels behind, farm and do league mechanic till I'm on par and contnue. Especially love doing aquaduct for league mechanics as it's straight forward very rarly will you miss the league mechanic if your just running through.
ive been playing PoE since Beta and this opened my eyes
Same. I still kill all of the monsters.
My first charter I think is in the 50s for lvl starting act 5. As went back to make a 2nd charter a scion. Which feel free to correct my thought on this build for my scion. A bow/minion build. Then sword and shield for alt weapon
what if I enjoy campaign more than anything after that? :D

Here are some friendly tips and **step-by-step strategy:**
0. **Stop being in denial.** If you are taking 2+ days to get to maps then you are wasting SO much time.
1. KNOW your build BEFORE you start playing so you can Ctrl-Click nodes on the skill tree. e.g. Print it out
2. Turn in _multiple quests_ at once
3. Skip side quests
4. Use 3x flasks of Quicksilver
5. Change skill 1 to MOVE ONLY
6. Bind SPACEBAR to skill 1 (Move only). This will help prevent Carpal Tunnel in your right hand.
7. Use flame dash
8. Use smoke mine
9. Use/crafts boots with movement speed
10. ALWAYS keep moving towards the zone exit
11. Only kill to recharge flasks
12. Learn the zone layouts.
13. If you are spending more then 10 mins in a zone you are spending too long
14. Stop picking up crap. SKIP wisdom scrolls, portal scrolls, armor scraps, whetstones, white, blue, and yellow (until every 20 levels)
15. Use a stricter loot filter
16. Practice, Practice, Practice
17. Time yourself. See your play time with the built-in command: /played
18. /played even works on consoles
19. Play off a SSD (NVMe or M.2)
20. On PS4 upgrade the shitty 5200 RPM hard drive to an SSD. Takes 5 mins to swap the drive out. Plus (45 mins to backup and 45 mins to restore.)
21. Set _reasonable_ goals. Start with 24 hours (3 days of 8 hours.) Then aim for 16 hours. Then aim for 8 hours.
22. Know you're limits. If you have Carpal Tunnel you will never be as fast as others.
23. Ctrl click on waypoints to bring up the instance manager. i.e. Farm Blood Aquaducts for Humilty/Vanity divination cards for a Tabula Rasa.
It _is_ possible to get to maps in 4 hrs. tyrykiller constantly showcases doing it.
Realistically 6 to 8 hrs is a great time.
Good luck!
I felt so stuck until you told me to run through everything. Best advice i have gotten so far!
Before I keep watching this video: Fucking hell this intro was hilarious. The youtube thumbnail diss was on point man. literally made my day
What build is that with Crackling Lance? The Tree looks similar to my Elementalist build.
Nice breakdown. Basically it's the explanation for all the things tytykiller does when he does his
you can run aqueducts back and forth, no reason to run to portal every time, just ctrl+click on that area you just came from and make a new instance
Always great content man. Been playing for a while and still learnt a lot of stuff. Thanks! X
Big Ducks absolutly underrated poe content creater. support this guy he is awesome.
Always quality content. Props, brother.
Goddamn your video rocks man, +1 sub.
WOW Ive been playing for awhile & yes its so hard not to stop & kill stuff BUT I want to try this as it seems to take forever to get to Maps! Thanks BD
Good tips dude, thanks 😊👍👍
Everything in this video is some cool advice EXCEPT the passive points. don't skip them. You will hate having to go back to get them, do ALL of the passive point quest's AS you get to the zone's and as you're leveling. 1. You won't for get about them and 2. you won't EVER have to step foot back into the campaign after getting to maps. Always Always ALWAYS Do the passive's quests as you get to the zone's and as you're leveing. don't ever skip them that is the ONLY BAD/Terrible advice in this video, the Rest? Was almost spot on. just get the highest move speed boots you can/use skills that increase your movespeed and use your movement abilities. Always be moving and Always be using your movement skills as you can.
Well the thing is, I love to kill all the mobs. I love taking my time going through this game. I like walking my own path when creating a character. My Templar ended up being an aura and totem healer with a minion that does damage and heals on hit with his weapon, along with zombie minions. My Witch became a necromancer that has zombies, can summon skeletons, and raging skulls and her minions can summon phantasms when they hit enemies. She also uses Fire Wall which does more damage in a smaller area. My Shadow is being turned into WoW type hunter using zombies instead of a tamed pet. I'll probably turn a ranger into a rogue as I think it would do better as that. But you get the point. I follow my own path and just do what I want.
Sounds cool, but can they do the end-game bosses? 😞
@@anonguy7599 Don't know yet. My Witch is level 56 and my Templar is 47. I guess I'll have to wait and see.
I love your content and glad I found the channel - will probably be doing one of your builds for league start next league, but... I will pick up every scroll I see and you can't stop me.
No scroll left behind
So by the time you hit maps, you will be counting Scrolls instead of Exalteds as many people, good strat bro :D KEKW
Hi BigDucks, thanks for the video, do you have a guide for the crackling lance, golem elementals you are using in this video?
It's a wonder GGG hasn't started selling skip Act 1-10 boosts yet since *everyone* (except me) hates to do the campaign and is always being called the 10 act tutorial. They should just start every character that boosted or finished the campaign once on an account to skip past it and begin at 75 with maps enabled*. Would that make you all happy?? :) *will only be honored on Standard League server.
great video and nice starting tips to get to the fun part of the game. Good job!
I follow all that you are saying, but find as soon as I get to a boss, I find that I keep dying. I am following guides, good guides but just never get the equipment I need and find myself getting through the acts fast, but the stinken bosses, mostly the dungeon boss and the guard in act 3.
Honestly, they need to just add an alternate way of leveling. A pre-map system unlocked once you have one character through the campaign. Then have the quest rewards get handed out through various level points. Would make it quite a bit more fun.
Why? Leveling is easy enough already.
@@Sammysapphira
It still takes like 8 hours doing the same content
@@dreed100 That's what makes me feel unmotivated to play again. I'm able to have fun only 8 hours after creating the character. Hate this campaign.
@@siignova yeah.
It was really fun the first time and replaying it after few years when getting back to game in delirium .
But in heist. Was just going trough the motions.
Campaign is fun, but the way content is done, if you are not getting dozens of chaos orbs per hour it seems like waste of time.
Hence people are recommending to not engage the content until maps.
Skip quests, don't figh monsters, just run to next area.
Alternative way for players to get to end game grind would be preferable
@@Sammysapphira Easy sure, but time consuming. Remember, around 90% of players rarely even get to Red tier maps.
The main issue for this is time and build choice. By having an alternate leveling method, that meant more to your character at end game, we could get more players in the end game.
I am good with needing to hit maps with a character in your game mode to unlock this method, but lets be honest, the campaign is boring, so it also solves that problem.
I also struggle with damage early on. On a new build I’m not good at getting correct gems and links to help with the damage to quickly kill monsters… so it takes me 3-4 shots to kill magic monsters
Do u intend to make a build guide for Crackling Lance?
When I tried to just keep moving and I used smoke mine and flame dash and avoided as many mobs as i could, I finished the campaign in 6 hours at level 47 with no gear for maps. 😳
Two trials of ascendancy I always skip are in the crypt (act 2) and in the catacombs (act 3), because they are out of my way. I wait after completing the first mission in act 4, then I come back, then I do the first Lab... way faster ;P Also press tab to check the lvl of the current area... If you are at the same lvl, skip most of the mobs and start killing the ones at the next area. And for God's sake, talk to the NPC in Act 3 AFTER getting the way point in Crematorium and get the way point in the Lab on the way out (you save A LOT of walking)
Thanks dude actually helps
ty big ducks very informative video!
Great video, I love the way you explained something most players realise after throwing away 6-7 characters. To all those who say that skipping quests for passive points is a mistake, you are delusional, because you can turn back once you are done with the campaing and finish them all for less than an hour, also most maps endgame are the same as those in the campaign.
The movement recepies were unknown to me, so thank you for that, also following your guidance and ofcourse tytykillers speedruns I managed to level a Ranger from act 1 to act 6 in 2 hours. I have to work. so the conclusion is no side quests, just rush it, no need for gear, nothing. Also, This is not helpful for hardcore players.
I know its necro but its funny that u take tips from tytykiller yet u assume that backtracking since a10 to redo the passive point quests is 'faster'. Speedrunners do them as they go same as trials for a reason. Not to mention some sidequests are amazing and dont take almost time at all, like den a2 for second quicksilver, some 4 links yellow gear if missing etc.
I think the most important one is stop killing everything and stop interacting with every mechanic (although I interact with new league mechanics to learn but this slows me down quite a bit).
I consider finishing the campaign as having all skill points + lab. If I just rush to maps without those my brain will still feel like I'm not finished with the campaign.
Yeah that's a thing I do too. I clear full maps while going thru campaign. Takes a lot of time. Wasted time
