Bleed is what is killing you so often?

It sounds like you have a bleed flask already and just aren't reacting fast enough to use it?

Now its probably 1 of 2 things.

1) Actual bleed. Get soul of ralakesh and get a bloodgrip amulet. Honestly though, your better long term approach is to get used to who causes bleed, learn to listen to that noise, stop moving asap, pop bleed flask.

2) 'Corrupting blood' - This isn't actually bleeding, though its functionally similar. Soul of ralakesh still helps here. But what you actually need to do is whenever you see a purple mob, slow the hell down and read the mod first.

Your bleed flask, is it a life flask or a utility flask? If its a life flask, move that to a utility flask so the immunity actually stays (life flasks will only give you immunity while you are healing. Once at full life, the effect ends).

Hope that helps. You hit a wall every now and then but just move down a couple map tiers, invest in more life etc and you should be ok.

I play games for fun, but I get more depress playing than fun. I am going out for some fresh air.

My last 20 death is literally all DoT from blood line blood. I did every migigation I can, Never rolled nemisis mod, never roll reflect, & play only safe maps & never even engage in bossed.

I just want to level to 90, then done with the lab & call it work done for my starter char, but its not happening, despite willing to do the most unfun thing in the game, playing like a sissy.

Still there will be instance these show up.

When it hits, I have only 1/2 sec to react to a flask. Thats a very short window, & I often failed, & died.

I can acept dying to a strong mob being undergear. But dying to be reflect damage take the toll.

Today I started at 25%, down from 36% due to you guessed it, death from bleeding at 35% yesterday. SO I play a few maps, got to almost 36%, which is where I want to end, & got hit by DoT.

But I persisted. Lets do it again, be more carful. So I atatcked more maps, to finally reached 36%, only to be killed again by a bloodline mob. I admit I panicked, & tried to outleech it instaed of spamming the flask, & well died. Now I am at 26%, square 1.

Very depressing. Its not like I can trying to be agressive & play contents well beyond me.

I guess the game is taking a toll on me, feeling worst than watching news.

I probably continue to play, but on my other char, & destiney 2 looks like dope. But I think I need to get off PoE & play something else. Going oit for some cycling down for the last few days of summer.

Is this rent thread, maybe, but I feel better letting off some steam ( I am not angry, just sad) I need an avenue to get off a bit of the depressing feeling.
