well, of course the game is going to be hard, that is the entire draw of the game is that is difficult and getting perfect gear is a massive grind, but you see regular progress in gear and levels. That said this build was not very tanky at all and the items they were using was only about average for a life build nothing super good or expensive. That is nowhere near a GG 5link, it was average gear for someone at that level doing maps. The build was actually a bit less tanky than most people would build because it has so much travel so the build would not really be very good until you're level 80 so that could be a bit of it as well.

not gg items?
ring: triple resist + dual dmg mods + high hp
5L armor: 100hp, dual resist, good armor and es.
5L weapon: 349 p dps
boots: 30 ms, hp, dual resists + main stats

i can go on but i'll stop here. all his items are way above what a player with 4h of POE a day will have at lvl 75 starting a new league. and this guy has trouble with 66 maps. are you kidding me?

The person you replied to is right from my point of view. There were no uniques equipped and just about all the gear he had on can be attained if you really wanted it.

I really don't get all the bitching about life as it relates to this video.

Few things:
1. Lowest HP he went to was still over 1500, how is that almost dying?
2. Even when he hit that, he still had plenty of flask usage after recovering.
3. He didn't use the quicksilver flask or leap slam to get away, which he could have.
4. The map mods on the Museum map where that happened weren't shown.

Just enjoy the video, see what release plays like, stop whining. Damn.
