Keep dying in T1 maps
|
Hi everyone,
I am a complete noob in poe, I levelled my character to level 70 a few days ago and was excited to try maps. Unfortunately, I keep dying to some mobs instantly no matter what I do. I was originally not following a guide given it was my first playthrough but once I felt my progression was blocked I started searching for builds that used the same skills I was using and ended up trying to shift towards this https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3205729/page/1 However, because it is my first playthrough I am missing the resources to obtain the gear needed so it may have been a mistake. In any case, I can clear content with ease with the exception of certain mob types that, if spawn, will cause me to die multiple times. My resistances are all above the cap with the exception of chaos, is this the root cause of the issue? You can see my build here https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Bacms/characters Edit: Hopefully you can now see my character, sorry for not releasing I hadn't made it public Last edited by Bacms#5108 on Jul 29, 2022, 3:01:57 AM Last bumped on Jul 29, 2022, 4:29:36 PM

You should make your character public https://www.pathofexile.com/my-account/privacy

Yo, just had a quck glance at your char in PoB, and you seem to have only 25% lightning resistance, so thats probably the reason you die to specific mobs (those which deal lightning damage obviously.. :)

I was playing with gear yesterday as I swapped to a tabula rasa and it seems I haven't fixed my lightning damage in the process. But I certainly had at 79% before the swap and was still dying so I don't think that was the problem.
The resistance shown by the UI is already with the 60% penalty applied right? I don't need to be 60% above the 75% cap? |

Yea, the penalty is factored into the display.
Well, hard to tell what kills you then if its related to specific mobs, unless you can give more detail about that mob. There are some nasty archnemesis effects that might be the cause. Could be your low chaosres and pretty low overall health as well if you run into chaosdmg-mobs though "Glattes Eis, ein Paradeis, für den, der gut zu tanzen weiß" - F.

" Yes. Get good hp rolls on all items, get all resistances (except chaos) to 75%, craft flasks with anti-bleed/freeze/shock mods. Remove the jewel cluster, try to find % hp and 1-2 useful mods on other jewels. Change your second weapon to a shield and gain block chance. And find another build guide, look for a newbie guide or a league starter. And take away the heralds and turn on the determination aura Last edited by seaman#4993 on Jul 29, 2022, 8:11:46 AM

I have just run a map to try and get the same situation and I managed to capture a screenshot. I was running a purity of elements just to get all the resistance above the cap

On the last screen Corrupted Blood debuff (physical damage over time). Like I said, craft a flask for immune to Corrupted Blood/Bleeding.

Thank you, seems like I need to get my head around flasks. When you say find a new guide at this point I am guessing it means start a new character?

No, try looking for a build with your class and skills.
I'm afraid that without a build it will be difficult for you to make a character. Your skill tree is bad and you don't even seem to know that many passive groups have "mastery" selections. Last edited by seaman#4993 on Jul 29, 2022, 9:17:01 AM
