Tried snowshoeing for the first time about 3 years ago.. safe to say it was worth it!

Sharing my most hype moments throughout the league! Despite all the bugs and all, honestly this was the best league for me so far. Coming from when I started in 0.3. League started as monke, it was so much fun collecting all the different beasts and for the perfect 4 mod Zekoa. It has also been my luckiest(mirror drop, voices etc.) and unluckiest(failed gambas worth 3 mirrors), all at the same time - league by far. Then after that I played/respecced like 20 builds across 3 classes. Ending the league with a Shaman where I started as grim pillars and then switched to spark when I had more currency. Got all 4 boons. My first ever mirrored item (thanks settler's shop!) And some of my favorite yolo crafts.
I played PoE 1 years ago for several leagues (starting in 2018) and stopped around early 2021, and quit gaming for a bit basically. It has been very nice to find something that I enjoy playing as much as I did old school games I played when I was younger. All in all hats off to GGG!

Lastly, sadly didnt hit a lock.. that would've completed my pilfer ring collection! Still I might try to hit 100 before 1.0, but going out of town for almost a month so gonna be taking a break from now.

Sadly didnt record it coz Im lagging hella. But it dropped on grand expedition chest mob. Cannot believe it lol. Played PoE1 years ago for a few years on and off and now PoE 2 since 0.3.. first mirror dropped ever!

Took me about a week or so just farming expeditions soley to find these things. Was lucky enough to get Uhtred's and Vorana's from rerolling with liquid verisium so that sped up the farm. Now the new goal is to find the two 9 rune and the 10 rune currency recipe that's already feeling like it's not possible lol.

For mana stack spell totem, which is better for defenses? I can run both but with blasphemy I have to either sacrifice 200 mana and get 5% spirit reservation from bonded rune modifiers or use dialla's desire and have enough to run everything else or just run arctic armour, run it as is and call it a day?

Good league to be a totem enjoyer.. Imagine when Templar comes?

Left: Ritualist Mana Stack - https://pobb.in/FoVAhhx31sS9
Stack as much mana for dmg and tankiness basically. Shaman probably pushes this more but I repurposed my companion build and too lazy to level.

Right: Gemling Arc Totem Non-crit - https://pobb.in/-SFxmSz247d_
Clear feels amazing, off-screen, looks visually pleasing, zaps! We're stacking lots of defenses through auras/mana, running 6 totems, non crit and going for 80% chance lightning dmg to be lucky

Overall I invested way less on Ritualist since I went broke from gambling and it feels tankier and just as good dps, crafted my own gear except boots and helm. Jewels are super easy now with all the new crafting methods.
So in hindsight I wouldn't have spent this much on gemling/arc.

Bro has had enough of the rakiata's farming

Tried many setups but finally feel like I'm in a spot I like, with multiple companions. Honestly cant go wrong with monkeh no matter what build you go for since he's that broken but wanted to run multiple companions. Just gotta figure out the tree/build to have better survivability.
0.5 was really worth the wait for me.

After several 2/5 streak broken on my Psyker almost wanted to put the game down for a bit. I switched to a choir fatmangus zealot and finally got it. It was rough ngl on quickplay and started cheesing it and leaving when the game was lost after learning it doesn't reset the streak.

Still lots to learn but got my first Auric Maelstrom completion!! This game is hella addicting lol. Switched to Psyker recently after erasing my progress with Zealot and I'm glad I did coz I'm having a blast. Admittedly died twice to poxbursters so I gotta be faster at reacting. Luckily the melee psyker was insane and clutched it for us. Also still waiting on some Psyker drip!
Also may need to tinker around optimization settings coz the stutters are real bad for me sometimes.

HELP. I realized after logging in just now that I absentmindedly deleted my main character Zealot, I tried to delete the lvl 1 Veteran I made when I first launched the game.. Zealot had max built in relic blade, shredder autopistol and 3 curios. I also bought a 2900 costume bundle, cant recall the name right now. Had a gas mask for headgear. Is there a way to undo my mistake? Or am I fucked..
