Same thing for me, but I am also too lazy to try speedrunning. Anyway most players will never achieve 3.30 timing to start mapping. I tried one run with your new setup and it was 33min 20sec, i think pretty good. Maybe in Heist i can end acts in ~5-6 hours what will be great.

Maybe it's possible to go faster if skipping some more stuff. I target the levelling guide for newer players and usually they spend more time in Acts. And that's fine! Why not enjoy the journey :)

For Harvest, I kept falling asleep during league start. I didn't get much sleep because preparing guide etc. I had to go back to sleep because I couldn't stay awake haha

my feedback is not so much about speedrunning as it is about optimum run, making use of everything you encounter:
Smoothing the progression (movespeed boots, essences, less backtracking)
Smoothing the build (passives, links to look for, gems)
Smoothing the bossing.

I am not a speedrunner myself, 8h acts is comfortable for me, but by the end of acts i am rescapped and have a decent HP pool and DPS, my base setup is finished a few zones before kitava, and IMO, this is what a walkthrough guilde should focus on - a smooth experience that makes the most out of acts.

I see what you mean. I try to improve those things too, but always forget something. Or even I have it in old guide, but forgot about it when making video guide. Main problem is video takes a long time and I can only record once. Actually I realised I missed some things after upload and it's already too late.

Are you guys thinking hammer nerf are comming to Sentrys?

I don't think so. The big change from 3.10 -> 3.11 is easy "mirror tier" crafting with Harvest. Almost builds are super strong with Harvest crafting. I saw on reddit someone did 2 seconds Sirus A8 kill with Chain Hook. Most people can't get so high level gear though, so for them Sentry isn't OP.

Maybe GGG disagree and kills Sentry? It doesn't matter because there are many more spectres.

But i will have "mirror" tier gear from harvest since I dont play temp leagues! Let's pray that you're right Kay =D

Act 2 is now on my youtube :)

PoE - Spectre Summoner Levelling Guide - Act 2

Let me know what you think :)

Looks nice, but the socket pressure seems huge to me, 13 sockets!
1) I would reduce the setup dropping Desecrate and flesh offering they are not that useful, you don't even use flesh offering in A2 so keep em in secondary weapon slots. This will allow to run without a body armor, giving that extra bit of speed or you will not have to worry about 1 extra B and G socket.
2) In Chamber of Sins trial you don't really have to use the switches, just jump over the blades with frostblink
3) I would recommend swapping a sapphire ring for a topaz before going to chamber of sins
4) in the ancient pyramid, the stairs on the floors after first are on the opposite-diagonal corner.

Overall, the run was nice and smooth, and i did not have a lot to say about it.
btw, you don't have to speak with NPC for quest progress :D

I thought that too! But in my practice run I got to Apex and couldn't click to start fight. I didn't understand why. But quest was still at 'show apex to yeena'. I had to portal to town and talk to NPC and come back.

Hello all,
I finally "completed" my build (items), but now I need a help with skill tree adjustment. I will prefer LIFE version of the build, because of my body. Can you help me to create a good skill tree, please (and also gem links)? All items are linked bellow:

So this shield actually was super easy to craft, except for the Gain mod. Assuming I use this for Sentries and Spiders, the Gain Phys would be better unless I had loads of cold damage correct?
