Path of Exile, the actual Diablo III

[Radament]

with the --nosound option added to the client , the game runs smooth without freezes at all.
i tried all the possible workarounds but this is a temp fix till i get an ssd.
anyway playing with no sound is either dangerous and ugly .

i saw some fix about sound on last patch cant rly remember about what exaclty, it was like today's patch.
i dont have a nasa pc and the game work fine for me why would you need ssd to play it ?
have you tried to change the settings in your sound card , like change from 16 bits to 24bits
or the 44 khz to 22 khz

if u get some desync just use /oos to resync manualy with server.

yes , patch says they fixed stuttering but it's a lie

anyway i played a bit with the Xonar software , removed GX option (the Asus version of EAX) and the game seems running smooth now. only 1 time my game froze but before got freezes evry 5 minutes.
maybe playing around with khz will do the trick.

desynch is not a problem cause i'm used to it but when you screen freezes in the middle of Beyond mobs you sit your pants and smash 123 buttons like a monkey.

Too bad it's such an easy game. Well the mobs are at least... it's just too cheap to spam AoE attacks to clear whole map (just as in D3). Although the bosses are just superhard. Hopefully someday Blizzard will make a proper old school diablo just for PC where they don't have to make every single attack an AoE because of the shitty controls of consoles. In D2 it was easy to die when surrounded by mobs and doorways were actually usefull... today's games just encourage gathering all enemies around you and then press some button to nuke them all (even with melee classes ffs)...

Tru. I was just casually playing, not doing any minmaxing or anything and even so i was doing mass AoE with a melee class all the time against everything. Gets old somewhat quick.

Just to keep you guys entertained: I RIP'ed another char. This time was a dual knockback flame totem templar, summoning raging spirits. I was Lvl 67 farming marciless vaal Most people don't even dare to try that untill they are way past lvl 70 So I could say my build was working pretty well... until Vaal lazorbeamed me to death 

And Sinnistra/Korppis and PTX, how far have you gotten in the game? Normal and Cruel difficulties are pretty much a run-through part of the game if you're not playing hardcore, and most players try to spend as little time doing those as possible. You're not supposed to get rekt in the "tutorial" part of the game after all

Uh wat, you do know you can increase difficulty in Diablo? If I went Torment 6 with my ~Torment 2 char I'd die in 2-3 hits. I don't know what else you expect from difficulty settings. And ARPGs have always been about spamming AoE, considering there's millions of monsters coming at you. Needless to say, you're free to spec for single target damage as well.

Lennu what passive build did you use? Got a link or already deleted the character?

Busted my lvl 55 Iceshot Ranger yesterday and tears were shed.

With 90% increased skill effect duration + increased duration on the summon raging spirits, they lasted for almost 9 sec, and without spell echo I was able to summon 13 of the them at a time. With spell echo it would have probably been way over 20 spirits + the flame totems doing way over 2k dps each While the temporal chains I used was also effected by that 90% increased duration. Pretty nice synergy with all the skills. But you gotta run with a sceptre(they give increased elem damage to totems anyway) instead of a wand, cause you need to use leap slam to move around in tight spots -> Lighting warp gets fucked because it also takes 90% longer to work with that passive build 

[Andswaru]

Lennu your build is empty (well actually it says incorrect url)

But a 9 second raging spirits summon time is preety awesome thats like insta gib anything time.

[Lennu]

Meh, there's something wrong with the hyperlinks, can't get it do load that long link properly. Anyway, I just took the templar elem damage nodes. All life I could grab, the dual totem ring, and that big ring of life near scion + the 2 places where you can get the increased skill duration.

[Moncho]

Just click the link and add == at the end, for some reason the hyperlink omits it

[Andswaru]

Thanks Moncho that worked.

Also I see lennu, will give it a try and see how badly i do in it
