New Players

Hello everyone just started playing POE with our entire family. Any suggestions for group dynamics for classes?

Currently we have a Witch, Ranger, Templar and Duelist.

Also any good sites to look over gear and compare also gems.

We will be streaming as a family on Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/fam4gamers

Feel free drop by when are on we are still new to the game so feel free to drop any tips.

Any suggestions on character creation or recommendation on builds will be great.

Thanks Fam4

First Stream Test with the Family... My Duelist seems a little weak I say need to do some research.

No viewers so talk is light....

i just watched your clip :D

you reminded me how i first started poe :D

picking up every white/blue item from the ground :D

Lol not enough bag space ... any recommendations do I stick to the gem colors I’m using. Tough to compare gear.

items in a nutshell

Whites - memorized by "RGB" instead
Blues - Use and throw
Rares - too few or too many, not enough IDs scrolls on my bag.
Brown - hording or stares and stares and stares...

Any sites or third party tools for item comparison or just look at you character sheet and see the affects on the character from swapping the items.

POE has some crazy amount of stats which is awesome for Min-Maxing a character. Trying to help the family understand it a bit better so they can make choices and what to use.

Thanks starsg

Same here...

I like to pick every item and bring them to town...

Sometimes if i wanna go faster, i will leave out those big items with 8 squares, unless they are interesting to pick up.

Then if i wanna go even faster, i will leave out the six squares items...

If the mood for the day is that i wanna clear the act fast, then i will mainly pick up currencies and the four squares items, plus other items which i think is interesting to pick up.

So you folks are on tonight then.

It says 6pm.

Is that 6pm EST, CST, MST, PST.

Or another time zone.

I shall stop by when I can.

Unless it is European time and we have missed you already.

The classic videos to watch for new players are:

Engineering Eternity: Beginner's Guide Series

For the Labyrinth you should watch:

Path of Exile: The Labyrinth Guide

Also a good source of PoE information for new players is:

The Twilight Strand

Beyond these there are many other PoE "how-to" videos for various aspects of play. You should also download and use Path of Building (PoB) as most video guides have a Pastebin link for use in PoB to see the build in all it's details.
