SC? Berserker for sure, for the DPS and because it allows you to facetank content with vaal pact.

I'm probably going Scorching Ray MoM Inquisitor, I saw build planning tools got updated this morning so will have to work something out tonight.

Weird, i thought I did mention SC. Sure, softcore, I have no clue about the game, so exploring it and doing content will be fun even there. Any nice tips for build and game overall?

Patch notes says they improved performance. Bullshit. With the lowest settings possible i have ~15 fps. Before, i had 20+. The game is unplayable for me. How can they optimise their game so damn poorly?

PS: I played fallout 4 on this laptop with medium setting and ~25 fps. How can PoE run so terribly?

Just killed Kitava. Have quite mixed feelings about the game, some comments:

Hilarious inventory. It's very small. On top of that, most of quest items are 3-4 boxes large for no reason.
Game is ugly. Monsters are repetetive and look awful. I was hoping this addon going to change it, but nope.
Ultra trash drops, I guess its all about farming currency orbs and crafting/trading with it. If it is true, this is pathetic.
New bosses look cool, if devs did put same amount of effort in regular mobs as they did in act bosses, game could be actually decent.
Labyrinth is cool. Sub class system is nice aswell.
This gem system is annoying. Can't upgrade anything, even if item has better stats, I pretty much cannot use it, due to the loss of my skills lol. There are currency orbs for managing sockets/colors/links, but they don't drop enough, so I'm running with items i found in a4-5. Feels great.
Bad balance of monsters, most of them are completely harmless, some just 2 shot me.

I definitely lack game knowledge, so probably some of those aspects are my own faulth. Questline seems to be joke, I did play all solo (excluded 6. act) and it wasn't hard, especially if you consider my disgusting gear and being melee.

Question is, what to do now? My res are trash, my hp is barely above 3k, my damage is low. I have like 20 alchs and 10 chaos orbs, what should I upgrade in first place and how?
