Something that really helped me when I was a new poe player years ago was a friend of mine who asked me if I knew why certain support gems or passive skill tree points I was taking were being taken and how they helped me and I couldn't answer. I was just following a cookie cutter and not understanding how the build went together. So if you're new it's a good thing to follow a build guide absolutely. But if you're doing that, try to ask yourself why you're taking certain points in your passive tree or how a support gem you add helps you etc. It will help you learn how things scale in this game and a lot about how the game works overall.
Tip: do not sleep on the town building mechanic! Go to boats as soon as possible because you get rares from early shipments. Almost all my gear rn is from there.
Yeah, my leveling gear right now is better than I've ever had at act 7, I'm nearly res-capped just from shipping drops, and I'm just handing stuff out to my buddies that are just starting the league
Don’t forget you can also get randomized gear from the guy in town. And gamble certain item types. If you give crops to the place you send your ship you can get lots of currency!
I just fired up POE for the first time in a couple years. I think Ive only ever completed all the acts at any time. Im going to try and play this one fully. Wish me luck
Thx for the vid..... I've watched a few of yours now. I know you may be keeping it vague or watered down for new folks due to the fact PoE has SO much in it. I would, however, really like it if you did a bit more of a deep dive into things. Like, 1/2 the vid I didn't know enough about. Thx again for your work & the vids! 🙂
There is also a browser plug in that sends you to the right wiki if you click the wrong one. There ALSO is a browser plugin that automatically adds the tilde on the trade website
playing for almost 10 years now, 95% witch or templar builds and i pretty much always start with a summoner/zoo build. aka passive zombies, spectres and a golem, with skeletons as an active spell. you can make use of almost every support gem you find on your league start. doesnt matter if its melee or spell support, it fits in somewhere. as soon as you hit level 14, you can have the 2 minion life reg perks + the major perk "sacrifice", combine this with a vitality aura, and NON of your minions will ever die throughout the campaign. you damage is WAY enough for a league starter without gear, you can play through the campaign without ever stopping. and even after the campaign, you can easily farm t1-t5 without any problems, which is good enough to farm some base currency to get whatever witch or templar build you wanna play.
thanks for video, i haven't played in a few years and holy is campaign grind slower then i ever remembered, it took me 2 hours to get through act one, it's insanely slow now and one of big reasons i stopped playing POE and waiting for POE2 is I am so sick and tired of playing campaign over and over just to get to the fun part of the game, for us casuals i won't be at end game for like a couple weeks!!
If you just run past white mobs, kill blue mobs for XP, skip tanky rares, don't do side quests, and don't hang out in town messing with your gear, you can easily get through one act per hour. Get a good movement skill as soon as you can (or two or three), use frostblink or flame dash for skipping over gaps and ledges. Upgrade your gear no more than once per act. This is only my third league and I can get through the campaign in under 8 hours without trying too hard. The pros can do it in a couple of hours, speedrunners can do it in an hour with a lot of planning.
@@parkerault2607 3 hours friday and like 12 hours Saturday and i'm in act 5. lol. I have 2 quick silver, a movement skill, and 25% movement boots now and hoping last 5 acts are much quicker. it's so annoying though spending a whole weekend just getting campaign down. I hate campaign with a passion and only enjoy game once i hit maps but it's like 2nd weekend when i can play maps
When you were talking about spam running what we enjoy to make money, I instantly thought about all the people that have the Stockholm syndrome with Ritual. They run it, run it, then they keep running it until they decide to respec cuz they are fed up with it but have no money to do so, so they keep running ritual. rip
Could you make a guide for adventurous people about choosing passives and making their own builds that can finish the campaign and some mappings? Maybe include target def / dodge / block / damage (?) / survival stuff / and maybe how auras mesh together? Ok maybe this'll turn to a 5 hour long video.... 😂
I am pretty sure there are older guides about how scaling damage and defense works. So this could be a way to understand building, even though things change quite often but it is still the same logic. Then it is just understanding how a skill gains damage and how to get tanky.
20:00 "people might get some really good gems" This is more literal for me haha. I had made my first few early divines by running lab for popular gems, especially the corrupted variants for whatever was popular. Vaal LS is popular, and quality version can add a lot value, especially after the recipe change for skill variants being removed. I sold 3 or 4, tried to get them to at least level 18, and each sold for 1.5 div. definitely rng based, but still an option
its always the resistances that get me as i head to act 8 or 9, thats when i spend much more time looking for useful gear i can use for a few lvls until i get better.
I wish I had waited to start my slayer. The lacerate bleed build you made at start I was following. Till you changed it. I was already lvl22. But I’m running shield crush and charge bleed and may need help
This video was amazing, I wanted to ask if you use any price checking addons, things like Awakened Poe or Poe overlay? something i've never been good with is the value of an item, or even where to search for "meta / useable"items, so i've relied on things like Awakened Poe, I was wondering if you had any other tool / advice.
Can anyone explain why POE players tell you, you suck if you're not killing things fast enough. They say its a skill issue rather than idk a build or gear issue.....anyone know why? What skill do i need to ya know point and click? I just don't quite understand?
I had no idea you could brick the atlas, that's something I did not know about. thanks for the tips! I never really tried going for specific divination cards before.
Flash back to 3.23 doing League challenges with double possessed, double wildwood, 5 essence monster that took all my map portals and still didn't kill.
something he didn't cover in this video but can someone recommend a good loot filter? I am playing archmage ice nova so maybe something oriented for that?
It’s gonna be hard to find something that tailored Almost everyone just uses FilterBlade, and if they need to customize a few things for themselves, you do that on the website. If you know what you’re doing Otherwise just download the first 5 strictnesses of filters off filterblade
Could you point me to a video that maybe explains what to focus on or get good at if you do bow builds? I've been playing this game for over a year now and no matter how much I learn I'm lost. Every bow build I look for is like people using a ranger and doing melee or tinctures or some other bs that's a whole other thing. It's just frustrating.
league starters are on the youtube, you could also check out his Twitch channel type in !commands and that should tell you what builds he has ready for the new league (or ! whatever is on title = !builds. gl hf :D
POE has far too many recipes for the casual player, I love playing but i simply cannot keep up with what does what and what combinations to build/vendor etc... I wish there was a simple game mode to help with crafting/vendoring/selling
You don' really need any. Elemental resistance rings for easier campaign (but most of the time you can also buy them from vendors), chromatic orb recipe for a lil bit of currency early and thats all you need for campaign. After campaign there is jewellers orb recipe, eveyrthing else is irrelevant or drops too little so dont bother. If the game is too complicated you need to make it simpler by focusing only on whats most relevant/important and ignoring the rest
POE 2 can't come soon enough. this shit is just way too complicated, complex and almost unplayable without running a third party app and have 2 chrome tabs opened.
Sorry, I want to watch this, but I also enjoy complaining to my friends every season about how there is already somebody lvl 60 by the time I get the medicine chest.
12+ years of patches and they still force you through that horrible campaign with 50% of the maps there that qualify for "worst random maps generated in the history of ARPGs". Good lord. GGG clearly loves their players.

"Campaign Tricks" - talks about maps
New to poe, subbed and hopefully one day I'll understand what you're talking about. Lol
Same here
I’m also new, I’m really liking this game so far, I’m on act 7
Bro I’m so confused and I played prob 200 hours like 7 years ago. I’m completely lost listening to him
I’m new too ! Chap 8 atm I wish I was playing this game years ago!
perfect timing. video 21min long, league start in 23min!!
Bro I be doing the exact same thing every time 😂
Lmaooo thought the same thing while I was browsing to kill time
plus 21min queue times lol
Ziz knows whats up
85000th in quee 💪🏻
Im about to play POE with my brother for pretty much the first time. will be following your build ty Ziz
First time playing poe this league and its only possible thanks to one of your maxroll guides. Thank you
I just fired up POE for the first time in a couple years. I think Ive only ever completed all the acts at any time. Im going to try and play this one fully. Wish me luck
This video was incredibly off topic for what the title was
That's a typical ziz video I have come to learn lol
I was not aware of map isolating :O that's an absolute banger tip for me when i've decided what div card i wanna get early!
As soemone who just came back since Harbinger, perfect video to hop back into PoE!
exile leveling is also a great side for a fast campain!
Oh man... that tip on the maps... After a decade of playing this game I did not know that combining different 3 maps will give different maps *.*
sameee, also pressing alt to see if they are complete, i always look at the atlas lol
Why didn't you just watch one few minutes long video about mapping in those 10+ years ? To say it's crazy is a massive understatement.
@@DoctorStrange01 Sometimes you're unaware of what you don't know.
Path of Que has returned, must watch more videos.
only 20k left...
Probably tips with Atlas maps part was very useful for me. Thanks
Perfect timing, 72k in que ahead of me
You are the best! Thank you for these videos! You are a live saver for me, a new poe player that gets overwhelmed easily @_@

i totslly planned on playing melee, was dead set on it. then i got scared and started templar last second lol. gking to try your arch mage build.
Thanks Ziz!
its always the resistances that get me as i head to act 8 or 9, thats when i spend much more time looking for useful gear i can use for a few lvls until i get better.
you can do the 15% elemental resistance from the bandits in act2, also crafting bench helps a lot
This is intimidating but that’s why there are videos like this
Just stuck in queue watching this
The best time to get through the acts was day 1, there were like 20-30 public levelling parties that would just rush the campaign
Nominal = tier en français, maybe. The absolute number doesn't change (re: the boots recipe).
I wish I had waited to start my slayer. The lacerate bleed build you made at start I was following. Till you changed it. I was already lvl22. But I’m running shield crush and charge bleed and may need help

Man I wish they would just make the campaign not feel so repetitive
They literally did that this league, by adding a lot og stuff in campaign zones and new random stuff to do
@@Merkinezz and then it'll be boring next league, it should be more evergreen random like maps
I wish it would be no campaign, like on d4

The fact that you can “brick” your atlas in a game that’s all about the end game is just wild to me.
Calling it "bricking" might be a little too severe. More like you are progressing past the point of a niche exploit of the drop pool.
You can’t brick it, you can always ride the struggle bus and respec it.
