      @@udntknw001 tbh, there is no method, every person's process is going to look different. Which is why he broke it down the way he did. Because you need to know what works for you, and how to build up a solid foundation before jumping in. If anyone claims to have the best method for creating your own build, they're probably full of shit anyways.

  • @datboi_gee

    I'm in a weird spot where I don't have any shame with following a build, and I certainly don't fault those who do, but I haven't allowed myself to "follow" one so to speak. The furthest I've gone is looking up archetypes and seeing the fundamentals of how they're doing what they're doing. Which I think is crucial to understanding how to even get a custom build off the ground, even if it's bad.
    I've rolled a witch like 4 times now this league. I didn't get the first two out of campaign because I was running into a couple of issues that, while I could have spent points and chaos orbs to fix, I couldn't escape the feeling that I could have done significantly better. Plus, without even being to maps, it was simple enough for me to just re-roll. Every time I did, my build's performance shot up at least 100%. I went from taking some damage but not dying at Dominus to face-tanking him and burning him down in a blink of an eye with no threat to my life. And between the third and fourth iteration, I had the same feeling with act 9/10 and Kitava. I could handle tier 5 maps before it started feeling a bit rough. While that felt like a great improvement from where I started, glancing over at what other people are capable of, I wasn't even close. So I'm starting again and trying something radically different but building around the same skills.
    I'll be satisfied with 100% dps increase, and 500% effective hp when I get to maps. That might sound like a lot, but my last character's effective hp tapped out at 5k and my dps 350k. It shouldn't be hard to push those numbers way up if I make the proper considerations.
    Anyway, the reason I'm posting this is because I can't help but feel like this is just a miniature version of what the entirety of PoE's community has done over the years. Of course the newest builds are min-maxed to hell, because they're working off of thousands of iterations of troubleshooting and experimentation. And at least for now, experiencing this process on a personal level has felt super rewarding. Seeing the difference in performance between attempts is like a visual indicator of my growth as a player, and I love it.

    I appreciate the effort here, and I'm sure subtractem is a great teacher, but 55 minutes into the video and he's literally said nothing at this point. Like the other PoE university videos it's mostly a lot of editorializing and generalization without any specific details about anything, especially the process. A new player watching this will be just as informed about the process as before he/she watched the video. This isn't a "slight" on Ziz or any of the people involved here, you guys are all entertaining to watch, just some honest constructive criticism. Most videos from many of the biggest content creators who are trying to explain things about PoE end up doing this same thing. You are basically telling people who don't know anything that they need to find out the things they don't know. But that's why they watch these videos that end up not telling them anything, which is just a waste of time.

      Its not what most people will be looking for when they click this video. And I played to whole thing in 2x speed just to get to the important bits. But it does have some value.

    That five minute intro was enough to bore me to the point where I straight up left. Get to the point.

    I've been trying to make my own build with stormblast mines and i swear it is just another job just to make it work.
    I'm not looking up what other people do, since i want to do my own thing. But i think it's too much.
    The wiki's are missing items and some other things.
    But seriously, making a build in this game is the black desert online of this game, another job.

    Finally more boomers in the gaming spotlight. Experience is knowledge. Years lived is experience.
