Yep! I didn't pay attention to it at first, but once I heard the growling I put it together.

Thanks!

I just found out yesterday what Cruel mode is lol, so yeah I've got a bit more gaming to do. I'm all in for it though, the ascendancy trials are not my favorite, but everything else has been great so far.

Yeah that's what I went with. I don't care much for the click to move style. I might've said it wrong when I was reading it.

I'm going to get the resistance one. I wanted to read more about it before I got it, just to make sure I wasn't interpreting it wrong. I knew I was getting those two that I got anyways, so that's why I got them for now.

@Graez Yah no biggie, U definitely want to the 10% damage as lightning ur next ascendancy. The crit u could probably do last since ur crit chance wont be high early game. Also the lead me through Grace is a very good one as well. Since auras cost spirit, u don't have to worry about getting it on gear. U just equip an Evasion/Energy Shield body armour. The passive Protect me fron Harm is nice its the only way to get physical damage reduction. Yah u lose some Evasion, but if u take the Energy Shield/Evasion nodes and get Energy Shield/Evasion gear u will be okay. Also pretty ballsy going in blind dude.... Bad ass!!!!

@@Graez Oh yah 1 more I forgot to say. U can always respec ur ascendancy points if u want to test something out or decide u don't like the skills u chose. U can't change ur ascendancy class, but the points within ur class u can.

@@209Richsta Okay cool, I'll look into those skills as well, thanks for that. I didn't like the Spirit trade off skill initially because with my current evasion I would have had less spirit, but yeah going towards end game I guess it might be the opposite, and give me more spirit. I always like doing first playthroughs blind since it lets me make a build I enjoy without worrying about min-maxing or optimizing like crazy. I enjoy the added difficulty of it too I guess lol.

@Graez Yah eventually you will get more than enough Spirit with a good hybrid chest and u can roll a more useful affix instead. I have more than enough Spirit with my 750/300 Evasion/ES body armour.

Reading in this game is a lot more in depth than Souls games, but also, what are you referring too? I'm sure that any new player would struggle to pick up a lot of things in this game. I'm making my way through it though.

I don't think I said I wasn't interested in those two. If anything, those are ones I will be getting later on. I normally do first playthroughs blind, so I haven't looked into how others are doing builds and stuff.

Yeah, I am learning the game. I only make comparisons for the sake of having something relatable to talk about. Me making these videos and talking through my thoughts is how I'm getting myself into this genre.

@@Graez fair enough , should take it as a fresh experience though. Blaming the games mechanics for failings is a good way to get hard stuck. Find solutions not excuses Glhf and welcome to poe

@@kylekelley2778 Thanks for the welcome. I'm definitely taking it fresh, that's why I don't know so much of the tech in this game. It's pretty much a blind playthrough. No excuses either, I just like talking shit when I'm having a tough time. I'm not the biggest fan of the trials, but I am getting through them.

🤣

Thanks lol. Big damage is just fitting sometimes and you gotta say it 🤣

Yeah it was really good. I think my build helped with this fight a lot, but that AoE was a pain in phase 2.

@ I had less of a problem in phase 2. But yeah the massive aoe was insane. I died twice backing away into a tornado when he had like 10% left. So much on the screen I missed it 🥲

Yeah, I didn't pay much attention to the relics at first. I'll max it out on the next run though so I don't have to repeat it 4 times again 🤣

Oh yeah I forgot about that. Whichever class will be using daggers is what I'm most excited for!

Ahh okay, I didn't know the honor amount was affected by anything. I'll test that out once I get to the next trial, thanks.

@@Graez You will have 2 choices for next trial, just pick Trial of Chaos instead, its better for melee.

@@Powermongur Okay cool, I'll keep that in mind when I get there.

Okay cool, thanks for that. I just looked into that combo a bit, it does seem pretty good. I'll have to get rid of my buff, or find some armor with more spirit though. Having an actual path for the build now does make it feel a lot better too.

@WhoCaresAnymoreTho yeah, that would be sick. I haven't played a new Mario kart in ages. I found out about Double dash last year, and it's been a blast the few times I've played it.

It's pretty good so far. I've never been a fan of this style of game, but I'm enjoying it

Yeah, that's what it was. That was the first quest in the game to do that, so it had threw me off at first.

I appreciate that! How's your playthrough coming along?

@Graez Yeah enjoying it alot, sorceress is OP. I'm not much of an ARPG gamer so I'm progressing pretty slow. I think I'm gonna go monk next time. It looks alot more engaging

@@chrisbaldbudgie8623 Yeah, my first time with this kind of game too. I've seen a few clips of warrior being very strong too.

@@Graez oh really? I only saw Asmon play it and his warrior sucked lol

@@chrisbaldbudgie8623 It was probably a high level player I saw, so maybe not lol.

Mannn that was BS lol. The whole ending chapter was one laser gun after another.

Yeah, it's been good so far! All the classes look really fun. With the magic that I have, it feels like a sorceress with a quarterstaff lol.

It felt like one though...

Okay cool, I'll add it to the list. I'm close to the 20 hour mark myself.

@@Graez and of course if you havent played the original games play those too. It will help with like story context in anomaly lol Anomaly kinda just plops you into the world and there are quests that kinda follow the paths of the 3 main games Also the world set up is completely different. For example in anomaly the red forest on on the eastern part of the map and in stalker 2 its on the western part. And there are others too. Also like the 3 main games its not exactly open world it's more like metro exodus with the massive open maps. Overall I think it's a really fun game and it's completely free and it's pretty easy to install

@@butteater8748 Okay sick, thanks for that. I got this whole series on my list, so I'll keep them in mind. PoE 2 is about to come out, so I'm finishing this game up in preparation for that lol.

Thanks! I'm gonna try to do a playthrough of World before this as well.

Yep lol! At the very start of the next video that's the first thing I talked about 🤣

Snorks don't gaf they leap up onto bus shelters to get you :D And I find most mutants run away and hide if they can't reach you

Is that another Stalker game? I actually didn't know about this series until this one came out.

​@@Graezif you liked the second one try the og trilogy. Shadow of chernobyl , clear sky (you might want to skip this one ) and call of pripyat. Then there's mods that combine the maps of all three games and you can create your own stalker like call of chernobyl, anomaly( and gamma) and of course misery.

@@arnasgrismanauskas9071 Okay cool, thanks for that! Whenever I'm not playing a new game I like to check out some older ones, so I'll add those to the list.

@@arnasgrismanauskas9071 Call of Chernobyl is GOAT for me in terms of the originals. I find Gamma and Anomaly add too much fussing around

I wouldn't be surprised if it had 🤣 I've had a handful of bugs so far. Nothing gamebreaking though.

I'd recommend it, especially if you like Bethesda feeling games. It does have it's fair share of bugs and glitches though.

Yeah, I can already imagine that this one will be modded heavily.

It's pretty good so far. Kind of feels like Fallout.

@starzariaguy5151 Okay cool! I did enjoy the insect glaive a lot.

@janskia yep! It's crazy how, even today those games can still be as fun to play. I'm actually planning to do a full Goldeneye playthrough tonight. Should be on the RUclips within a few days.

GGs

Thanks! I appreciate that.

Thanks! I'll probably do a playthrough of Rise or World before this comes out as well. Seems like most people are recommending World.

@ it’s the one I started with so I’m going to have a bias to it but I’ve heard the balance between weapons is better in world

@@Graez World gameplay is closer to wilds but also a bit slower and more methodical. Rise is a lot faster with flashier moves. Still a good game, though not for everyone and most weapons are quite a bit different to world or wilds.

@@ShadeScarecrow Yeah, I'd like to check them both out beforehand if possible. Somewhere around New Years I'll be getting started on that.

@@Mr_Wallace97 yeah! I had bought Rise a while back, but it seems like most people recommend World over that. I'm gonna check it out.

Thanks, I'm looking forward to it! Gonna start a playthrough of Rise soon.

@Graez I would recommend world more rise is ok I been playing since two and rise is ok it's just weird

@@redlyons9982 Okay cool, I'll try to check them both out. I picked Rise up on sale a while back, I'll keep a lookout for World too.

Thanks, I appreciate that! I enjoyed the beta a ton! It took 2 or 3 sessions, but I think I get the basics of most of the mechanics now. I bought Rise recently, and plan to do a playthrough of it within the next couple weeks.

That is great to hear, that was also the game i started with, its a bit easier than mh world so you should be able to learn everything in a relatively short amount of time

@paranoidfox8682 Yeah it threw me off when he started talking 🤣

It's pretty good so far. Up there as one of the longest campaigns in the series too.

Same fam. Same

Yeah, Phasmophobia is more for you to talk to the ghost, instead of it listening to you. I haven't played it in a while, but that's how it was the last time.

Thanks, I appreciate it! Yeah, I was familiar with the Revenge Counter and Perception, but the Super Counter is the one that was giving me trouble (Up + Attack). The timing is difficult with it, but it'll be good to learn since it works when you're getting attacked from behind as well. All the names are still confusing to remember 🤣

Yeah, it's a weird naming convention since the other mode is "Story mode". All it does is make the enemies have less health. It should just be "Normal" and "Easy" lol.

@@Graez haha yes I agree. Very odd

Yeah I was reading about that earlier. I'll be doing that on the next playthrough.

Thanks, I appreciate that!

Yeah i don't usually do any farming in this kind of game.
