Melee?

I'm so desperate I show off my 100% pve build in a pvp discussion thread, and I'm so delusional I argue for days that I'm right when every knowledgeable melee player disagrees with me.

fixed for you

Hide behind your precious PoB code all you want, we're both killing shaper in <3 seconds. PoB could say you do 30M damage, but all that matters is what it really does in game.

Oh and I'm melee too because I'm standing right next to him! :)

the difference is, i never complain about pathfinder, wise oak, or vinktar or whatever,

but you do.

what i do and what i say has some kind of equilibrium you know.

markusz, enjoy wikipedia meta

Why don't you complain about Pathfinder or any of that other stuff?

In this thread we are not complaining, several of us are denying the legitimacy of your claim "Melee is not Dead" by giving you concrete reasons why.

We are not attacking your build - quite the contrary. I actually complemented your damage the very first thing I said in this thread, but then we continue to give you legit reasons why we all think a certain way. Instead of having a conversation about it, you choose to go on the defensive and start attacking everyone else that disagrees with you while desperately trying to change the subject. i.e. "you call ray a scammer! you advertise for doe! that ~1yr old shaper kill of yours is so slowwww!!!" lol

And just to be clear, we're not the ones suffering. You must know your behavior makes you look a certain way. If you ONLY take us giving you concrete reasons why this build cannot claim "Melee is not dead" as complaining, then that just solidifies what everyone already thinks about you. If you refuse to see that, then that will only act to your detriment.

To be fair shaper kill is nothing to brag about, it's no challenge at all.

Just make an elementalist golem build with a couple of the golem regen jewels, suicide, and wait for the immortal golems to slowly do the job. Then just respawn and grab the loot.

EZ life.

Depends on the circumstances I would say. It's not worth a brag, but I wouldn't say it can't be a challenge. On softcore nothing is a challenge to be honest. On hardcore though, it can be quite a thrilling experience especially if you aren't using the best possible shaper killer build.

Personally I had a lot of fun farming him last league right up until he smashed me to standard. You get the same feeling of "danger" that you used to get even in high maps a long time ago.

Well PoE HC is an entirely different game especially for veteran players.
