Path of Exile

[Phred]

Does the kiwi do damage or is it merely a cosmetic pet?

The devs have stated there will be no buying advantages. Other than bank slots and character slots and  people can mule gear anyway so bank tabs are just a convenience.

[Mrbloodworth]

Drop some names in here for grouping.

Trucegore ( 6 or so ) and Grimst ( 20+ ). Both normal, default league.

[Mrbloodworth]

Ha, that's cool:

[Threash]

What do you get if you don't help him?

[Mrbloodworth]

We wen't to kill him at the request of a towns folk. Haven't found out yet, we need to get to the other two. I have a feeling they have offers too.

[Quinton]

Does difficulty scale with party size?  I've played to level 14 or 15 as a Ranger in Normal mode and found the game to be not horribly challenging -- not always a walk in the park, but usually not too scary.

[Mrbloodworth]

There is a lot more crap that's for sure.

[Phred]

Bigger party gets more mobs with more hp who hit harder. The hp is a bit much atm so it takes a while to wear them down from what I found. I only duoed with a Marauder though so no idea what a good party can do.

I'm mostly on Faydra, my 43 witch, got a 20 mara too though named Feyde

Zzelle - Ranger lv16 - Act 2
Soracia - Witch lv12 - Act 1

[Mrbloodworth]

Huh, seems to add by account. Handy.

[Phred]

Ya that is cool

[Mrbloodworth]

[Phred]

Hint. There's 4 difficulty levels

[Rendakor]

Dropped $10 for the beta, installing now.

[jakonovski]

Paid beta isn't, but all the same this seems like a game worth supporting.

[Rendakor]

Wow, I'm a huge fan of this game. It's everything I wanted from a sequel to D2.

[Phred]

I think I figured out the random zone thing. I think the game saves the layouts for a certain time longer than the 15 minutes it takes to reset the area. If you want a new layout ctl-click on the zone from the teleport map and reset it that way. From what I've seen that will definately change the layout.

[Ssath]

I have a couple of beta keys for this, if anyone is interested.

[Draegan]

I'd like to try it out.  Draegan@rerollz.com

[Ssath]

Check your PM's.


Edit: Both keys are gone.

[Tyrnan]

I have a key I totally forgot about as well if anyone else needs one. I gave it to a friend but they said they never used it, so it should still be valid.

[Ssath]

If it was given to the account that you are using to play, it shows all of your keys, and whether or not they have been used.

[Tyrnan]

Ah ok, well it doesn't say it's used on my account page so I guess it's still good then.

Edit: Pagz, check your PM's

[Pagz]

If anyone feels like giving away a beta key, I'll be only more then happy to take if off your hands  . Had a lot of fun on the free beta weekend, can't wait to see how traps and totems play out when they release the last class.

[Kageru]

Likewise... though hopefully release is not too far away as it sounds like the game is quite playable.

[Logain]

I'd appreciate a key if someone has a spare 

[ezrast]

I ponied up ten bucks and have been playing an absolutely embarrassing amount of this. Currently mostly playing Fye, level 20-something melee witch.

If you dont mind the lack of an Act2 boss or an Act 3 at all it is. Dev estimate is currently July

Tried to get into this, but I cant help shake the feeling that the endgame is nothing more than looking at excel spreadsheets trying to figure out the best order to sell items in, and the best order to upgrade items in. Seems just ridiculously complex...

[Draegan]

This game was odd.  I didn't play for very long though.

I guess some people liked the cube recipes from diablo and this is an extension. I agree that itemization could use some work though. I end up leaving 99% of it on the ground now, only looking for tri-color linked socket items.

[FieryBalrog]

Fun game. Really digging the graphics, apart from the odd saran wrap bloom effect they have in places. Game runs great, too.

Wish there was more monster variety. I've been killing beach hobos and the occasional sand critter for the entire 40 minutes I put into it.

[Mrbloodworth]

They change, of course. usually in a zone or two.

[Cadaverine]

Got two spare beta keys if anyone wants one.  Just shoot me an IM.

Keys are all gone.

[ghost]

What the hell.     I'll take one, if you have an extra.
