Welcome to the dArK sOuLs mentality where every criticism of the game is instantly met with 'git gud'.

To be fair, I have seen so many complaints about difficulty from people whose builds were beyond just bad, it puts a dent into any criticism to PoE endgame systems they may contribute.

When the solution to the problem is literally just an experience issue, then "git gud" is a valid response as long as it is followed by advice on how to improve.

Not saying that some forumers take that stuff too far, or just say "git gud" without offering advice / help, but lets not play pretend here. ^^
The opposite of knowledge is not illiteracy, but the illusion of knowledge.
It is not about "git gud". But if somebody struggles in content which is normally easy manageable in the beginning, than its a clear that there's a major issue. A lot of people tried to help the thread creator. But its clearly not the games fault at this point.
I'm kinda in the same spot as OP (even worse) - I'm not complaining because I've been in this spot many times, and know that I will 'make it out' in some hours of farming. Feel free to check my character IndesLietus

- Followed a build guide
- Only found 4c during the campaign
- No passive points missing
- Two labs missing (can't do them yet).
- Picking up gear with life rolls + resistances but not finding a lot with good rolls.
- 2.5 HP, capped resistances, Purity of Elements, Grace, Immortal Call + Automation.
- Can't do T1 maps. Forced to farm Aqueduct. Could maybe open some chests in Heists, but I'm definitely not taking away reward with this build to sustain Markers.

So what can I do at this point to be able to run at least T1 unrolled maps?
What actually helped me a lot - farming Desecrated Chambers for a while to get gear and levels :) Its a nice zone to catch up

I'll try that for fun today instead of the usual Aqueducts. Maybe drops will be a bit better :)

Go to trade site, put in filter for a non-unique bow with +2 to bow levels, 1.6 attacks per second and +damage over time multiplier and a 4c price limit. There's a one for 4 chaos that has 6 sockets, a 4 link and a 2 link. I'd recommend buying that bow with your 4c. That will get you pretty far.

So dont go spending C on a + bow. Ive pushed 4 voidstones with quil rain on a 4 link playing TR. You need to start identifying items because all the stuff you have on is just horrific.


You need to learn to use scrolls of wisdom and just basic gear off the ground because its just.... what is happening with this setup of yours.


Your belt looks like its from act II
Gloves have no life
Rings have no life
Unique ammy has no life
Boots have no life
Chest has barely any life

Your flasks are more advanced than your entire gear.

What. Am. I. Looking. At?

You dont need c to fix this. You need to just, pick things up and identify them.


Looking at your other characters it looks like there is an entirely different person using this account. Or your post is 100% bait.

Believe it or not, but that's what I'm doing - the rolls simply haven't been too kind to me yet. I'll admit that I don't want to ID jewelry, because at this point I'll value some C from the recipe more.

Well, surely - you comparing characters with some currency invested vs a character at a league start that can't run T1s. I promise, I'll get there once I'll actually be able to run T1s. But for now I can't, and also can't drop or buy any upgrades which is exactly my point.

Are you doing boat shipments? I got so much good gear from my boats during the campaign. You can also gamble using your gold for specific items you want to replace. It's never been easier to get entry level gear with those 2 things. And stop worrying about the chaos recipe. You'll make way more chaos if you fix your gear and break into maps vs running campaign zones over and over.
