Merry Christmas

People are baal running in 2017, pretty crazy. I'm looking forward to the D2 remaster myself and maintaining my leave from the all-time game until then.

3.0 launched and PoE has reached new levels of success and popularity.

Of the top list, Gary, MajorThor, and myself are on multiple days a week. Duped and NumbaOne will be back for 3.0 on Aug 4th.

Hi, I'm Don.

I've got a nice name bank on PoE that I might be able to share.

You could also check out the build of the week video series from the developer. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLt5SL2R19SuLFX61HjO-6jJw-iy42tFOR

One of the most noob friendly builds in the game is http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Flame_Totem Totems stay between you and the enemies, they auto target and fire flame projectiles at their targets. There is a skill similar to D2's Blizzard called Icestorm and a fire version of it, Firestorm. Almost all spells can be used as self cast or totems. There are many skill gems http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Active_skill_gem Almost all of them are viable end game options, look through the list and point out what peaks your interest.

There isn't much direct heal, but plenty of support style builds. Also plenty of caster DPS builds and hybrid versions of caster and support. Many options, let's narrow it down. How to deliver damage? Self cast, spell totem(s), traps (that you throw), or proc spells a on critical strike with an attack? Preferred spell style? Either projectiles released from you, totems, or traps, or area of effect skill targeting/channeling. Any preferred damage type? Fire burns, cold chills and freezes, lightning shocks (enemies take increased dmg when shocked), chaos is immune to reflect, or physical damage, which stuns? Hardcore or softcore? I play HC almost exclusively but would suggest that you play a SC temporary league to learn the game. I will guide you to a more HC style of build if you want.
