yes please, this is such perfect timing for me. just hit maps on my first non guide character and struggling so decided to go again on a new character and this will all be helpful. cant wait to see how different a real build is compared to my playthrough using scraps from the kitchen sink.
your energy is needed in the content creation side of poe. actually radiating positivity and are very clear def gonna apoint this vid to my new friends.
I freaking love this video. Your passion for the game just radiates from it, you seem so excited to just share your knowledge about the game and explain everything that you can.
talking and teaching for 3 hours is insane and so respectable. As a fellow PoE Starter myself i cannot thank you enough for this "follow along" guide. Thank you for your service Mr.Streamer o7
the game is completely free to play, there isnt much reason not to at least try it, personally I didnt spend money on the game until I hit around the 50-100 hr mark
Give it a try and if it hooks you wait for a stash tab sale weekend and alteast get a map, currency and atleast 1 premium tab or a premium quad and you should be golden.
I have tried playing this game since Launch (seriously, still have Razer footprint boots). Over 300 hours put into game (I used to come in, try, hit a wall around level 50 and quit). Kind of weird you have to earn a PhD to enjoy this game but I think it's worth it. Gonna watch the entire thing
I just picked this game up for the first time a couple of days ago and your tips have helped a ton to progress. I have been playing at a slow pace just enjoying what the game and campaign has to offer. I've completed almost every sidequest and just finished act 4 and I'm having a blast. I'm already excited to play another character and I haven't even reached "end game"
Hey Mr. streamer, thanks to your vid I got back to PoE (again, never started act 2, I'm trolling), grabbed a beginner guide (Detonate Dead Elementalist, seems fun), and I'm having a blast so far ! Your beginner guide and you bootcamp were all I needed to really get into the game, so thank you
First video that is pitched at exactly the right level for me, a newbie totally in over my head who started playing yesterday and reached level 3. 🙂 Thank you so much for this guide !
I know the vid would be way longer but would have liked to see the full 2nd half of acts to follow along. Would love extra help with the endgame. I'm on console so I can't easily use pob or awakened trade. I did just drop my first divine randomly in an unjuiced act 5, and promptly lost my shit.
I have watched many of these types, and this is the first time it finally sunk in, I think I'm starting to understand the early game progression and many of the mechanics of the game, great video
professional yapper (in the best way possible) loved this video and everything you described and talked about! i admire how u always have something to talk about AND its always worth listening to :)
I definitely need help with POE but I’d so much rather you show me how the hell you get so much energy lol. Even when I’m excited I’m at half your level. Great video by the way.
Although you talk a tad bit fast for me i really appreciate the way you lay things out and how you actually think if the person that doesnt know how to play from their point if view which in itself is amazing this is 2nd vid im watching my 1st was you explaining marauder side tree tier list and it was exemplorary it was an hour and i found it as informative as it was entertaining you are a well thought out gamer streamer and i appreciate your way thank you woolie man
As someone who is in red maps day 1, this is a very good guide. I may have missed it if he mentioned it but, my big recommendation(to people who are watching his vid no Woolie) is that you make two characters and go do the quicksilver flask quest twice before making your main. 3 flasks is basically 100% uptime and cuts down your time in the acts by about a third. Also if you're going to use skills that arent available to your main, you can use that time to make a class that the skill is a reward for and stash it.
I've been looking for a video that doesn't just show what but actually explains WHY. What is the thought process behind the what. Looking forward to watching this...
i have multiple level 90 characters in poe, my highest being level 95. ive never used path of building, im going to try it, + i havent played poe in 2+ years, im coming back for the league. getting a refresher from you lol! :)
Aight, came here after a video told me and learned something massive an hour in. The build guides tend to assume you know a certain amount coming in. I learned, that I don't have to level LS from 1 after I get it in act 3 is it? Meaning that when I switch over, I don't start over. Learning gems level on your off hand has saved me a bunch of mental gymnastics so I give this tutorial a 10/10. You have saved me.
All basically to save time skip most of the side quest unless they give you a skill point and it’s faster to exit to character screen the. Use a portal
1st time playing an ARPG and man... I didn't know I was signing up on alchemy, statistics, management classes when I decided to play this game. After watching whole video all I remember is to get life and resistances. XD
1:40:59 This has been changed, you now need to do this quest, it provides a skill point. killing all bandits now only provides one skill point making your points the same but, this quest is now needed.
Love the content man, been watching u since the risk of rain days. I just got poe for the first time and was wondering if you could make a vid about a flicker strike build
I’ve been playing for 2 days and this has filled in so many holes, thanks! Question: so there is no point in running duel wield unless an ability which needs it? I ask because I’m playing a shadow and daggers seem ass.
correct - very few skills ACTUALLY utilize dual wielding efficiently (namely, the skill Dual Strike.) you are much better off having a single good 1H weapon + a shield for more defense
@3:00:00,, 8m having a real difficult time unlocking modifiers. Many 9f them are undiscovered. Also, I haven't encountered a beast to capture since like act 2. So my question is,, how can I unlock those modifiers in the bench?
there are recipes scattered across the various zones during the campaign - hover over a locked modifier (in grey, below your available mods) to see its location. otherwise, you'll start running into a ton of options once you reach Jun in Act 9 and begin unveiling equipment from her mechanic (Betrayal)
Oh my god, been playing poe off my own brain on my maurader and I’m level 35, Ibe managed to make my way over to dexterity and intelligence already on the skill tree, for sure gonna make a new character😂 also want to add I managed to get the vaal smite gem really early and seemed pretty strong so built around that for my armour etc and support gems but my skill tree is beyond fixable hahahaha
i think alot of people are confused at the beginning wether or not this is a guide to make your own build. When he says "plan out" your passive tree, this does Not mean you plan out your own build. This is very important
YO Woolie i hope you see this but I've been trying to follow your video as closely as I can and do the same build but the problem is I don't have the POB so its really hard to know what you do sometimes I'm pretty new to the game and correct me if I'm blind but there is no POB in the description or anywhere but I watched the video and you said there would be one so I'm wondering do you have the POB for the build I'm too deep in and all the other splitting steel builds are completely diffrent especially the skill tree part thank you in advance if you are reading this
Really wanted to start getting invested this league but my gaming laptop has fallen too far 😔Even running on lower graphics/fps the game just freezes so much for me. Going to be upgrading my old desktop with a 40 series super so hopefully I can fully get into the game then 👍
I'd like to know more end-game stuff, i get hard stuck beyond tier 16 maps, once i try to push beyond that i find that i just get crushed by the special bosses like minotaur. i have no clue how you are meant to progress gear-wise
I was having so much fun then in act 9 (necropolis) my first league i kept getting one shot over and over again i gave up. I’m not opposed to difficult content but that was so unfun im hoping poe2 is better I was following a build guide
Very relatable. The truth for better or worse is, when we look at players that always generate tons of money and crazy builds league after league, it becomes about knowing the niche items' value. Everyone knows a Divine Orb is big. But those who can discern which rare items are one or two crafts away from 1000x their current value are those who can rise. Personally, I just enjoy the journey of each league getting closer to that level of understanding. When it becomes too much, take a break, come back next league, but always try to do better than last time 😊
You talk to quickly and swap gems/items to quickly ;) sometimes hard to understand to a newbie player whats going on. I tried to follow but sadly starting from end of Act 4 maps keeps crashing and even when using some ways around it using portal(teleporting back to city and back to the map) issue still persists later in Act 5, so I gave up as currently game seems to be broken after recent update :(
I played 25h I liked the complexity but still only pressed 1! Button the whole time 😅 Then i stopped because it was boring for me to just pimp 1 spell I was Inquisitor i think. Should i give it another chance?
@@Woolie Yeah I wasn't sure. I was able to select the banner for Necropolis while keeping Ruthless unchecked to start my first play through. I asked global chat, and according to them, Solo Self Found only becomes available after Act 3.
@@Woolie yeah, Tab, flet pretty dumb when I found it. To be fair there's nothing in game that tells you that and Google is no help at all, thanks for answering me though!
My god POE devs were like how the fuck can we possibly make it so you have to have a Harvard degree to get into our game. Good god the game looks incredible but wow they went hard on the systems.
let me know if you want another vid of this style but covering the endgame
Almost To The Endgame Myself. A Video Would Be MUCH Appreciated On What To Expect 😊

I do love this content.

I agree, im trying to play on my own and learn while playing, so far its all good, im in act 6 but if i need help im coming to this channel
I freaking love this video. Your passion for the game just radiates from it, you seem so excited to just share your knowledge about the game and explain everything that you can.
i am amazed by how you kept the same energy this long , never took a break for 3 hours , my adhd thanks you
There is a thing called a pause button. I would guess he pause the recording and took some breaks.
talking and teaching for 3 hours is insane and so respectable. As a fellow PoE Starter myself i cannot thank you enough for this "follow along" guide. Thank you for your service Mr.Streamer o7
Thanks for making all this stuff Woolie. Got into PoE thanks to your guide, it has been fantastic.
Finally tried it out after years of looking. Almost to act 3, and its starting to get addicting.
you got me back into path of exile woolie 😭 I love it so much and am so glad my fave ROR2 Mr Streamer also plays other games i play
You are the only reason why i'm thinking about playing this game and i'm RIIIIGHT on the fence, I'm really close to caving lmao

Awesome to see this from you! Will be using this to get friends acclimated. Cheers!

Best video on Path of Exile ever. You are extremely underrated my man, you've earned a loyal subscriber for as long as I continue playing this game.
When i want to get my homies into this game, im showing them this video. Great energy all throughout. Awesome job man, keep it up.
Dude you got me into this game I watched the vod of this and the beginner guide and this game is so fun
Playing poe for the first time, started this week, very excited, let’s goooo ! Súper useful guide btw.
Hey Mr. streamer, thanks to your vid I got back to PoE (again, never started act 2, I'm trolling), grabbed a beginner guide (Detonate Dead Elementalist, seems fun), and I'm having a blast so far ! Your beginner guide and you bootcamp were all I needed to really get into the game, so thank you

Nevermind your beginner guide! (sorry I know that was alot of effort but) *this* video is the PERFECT beginner guide!
WOOLIE hype. My fav PoE creator. Excited to see this narrated guide :)
Although you talk a tad bit fast for me i really appreciate the way you lay things out and how you actually think if the person that doesnt know how to play from their point if view which in itself is amazing this is 2nd vid im watching my 1st was you explaining marauder side tree tier list and it was exemplorary it was an hour and i found it as informative as it was entertaining you are a well thought out gamer streamer and i appreciate your way thank you woolie man
Amazing guide, new sub for sure and pretty new to PoE and I found this extremely helpful. Really enjoying this season hope yours is going well

This playthrough is fantastic for new players. I have in just over 200 hours and I think I'm starting to understand the basics
@@IronManX329 glad to hear it!
Thank you. I have forgot many of the little things you went over.
I've been looking for a video that doesn't just show what but actually explains WHY. What is the thought process behind the what. Looking forward to watching this...
Bro you helped me a ton in risk of rain 2. Guess i get to watch more of your content on poe!
i have multiple level 90 characters in poe, my highest being level 95.
ive never used path of building, im going to try it, + i havent played poe in 2+ years, im coming back for the league. getting a refresher from you lol! :)
have fun bruther
Ive been lost alot in this game but this really really helped! Thx for the vid!
Aight, came here after a video told me and learned something massive an hour in. The build guides tend to assume you know a certain amount coming in. I learned, that I don't have to level LS from 1 after I get it in act 3 is it? Meaning that when I switch over, I don't start over. Learning gems level on your off hand has saved me a bunch of mental gymnastics so I give this tutorial a 10/10. You have saved me.
Amazing! Perfect Second video to watch after couple h in the game
Nicely done woolie keep the good work up.
First time playing took almost 100 hours to get to maps lol
Great video man!
This game is self explanatory who needs a guide
why have I not known about /hideout command even after 400hrs of gameplay? 💀💀
All basically to save time skip most of the side quest unless they give you a skill point and it’s faster to exit to character screen the. Use a portal
1st time playing an ARPG and man... I didn't know I was signing up on alchemy, statistics, management classes when I decided to play this game. After watching whole video all I remember is to get life and resistances. XD

3 hour maintenance break, 3 hour video, perfect.
I'm on act 3 right now with witch class and i love fire and minions ( just got summon reaper gem)
Hey man! There many other smaller creators that you can copy in the next few video! Keep it up.
What? He copied someone? Who?
Love the content man, been watching u since the risk of rain days. I just got poe for the first time and was wondering if you could make a vid about a flicker strike build
This is great! I'm not new, just watching for entertainment lol.
I’ve been playing for 2 days and this has filled in so many holes, thanks!

correct - very few skills ACTUALLY utilize dual wielding efficiently (namely, the skill Dual Strike.) you are much better off having a single good 1H weapon + a shield for more defense
I really want some good content on defensive layers for each class that way I can build my own char
Oh man I'm 40 mins in and now I can't stop laughing. Woolie trying to make a beginner guide walkthrough and chat is just spamming farts 😂
@3:00:00,, 8m having a real difficult time unlocking modifiers. Many 9f them are undiscovered. Also, I haven't encountered a beast to capture since like act 2. So my question is,, how can I unlock those modifiers in the bench?

Woolie, do you have a build guide of the character you did here?
i think alot of people are confused at the beginning wether or not this is a guide to make your own build.

Great Video , for those thinking he speaks to fast , he probably does , but if you cant follow this , PoE probably isnt for you xD
Awsome dude,you really good man,i'd love to see you doing this for LastEpoch :)!!!
any shot there would be a pob for this build? i want to run splitting steel so bad but i dont trust myself to cook up a passive tree for it lol
imagine getting to act 7 with less than 40% in each resist...
that couldnt possibly be me needing to ressurect about 3 times for each boss i faced
I was having so much fun then in act 9 (necropolis) my first league i kept getting one shot over and over again i gave up. I’m not opposed to difficult content but that was so unfun im hoping poe2 is better
I was following a build guide
getting currency is always my biggest issue early on. excuse me i mean always.
i enver get drops of high currency or good uniques

So uh how often is it for people in global chat to just trade gear for a build you’re going for after partying up for like 2 hours
This is on 1.5 times or dude snorted an adderal before the video but still much needed info loo thank you
