I could not beat the last 2 act 3 bosses with the witch, just didn't have the DPS needed for single target battles so the fights drug on too long. Ended up asking general chat for a hand to push through those 2 fights, 90+ characters helped me each time. Boss basically dead before I could blink.

Walked through act 1 cruel with very little difficulty. The count stalled me a little but remembering to put an ice charm back on helped a lot.
I had the same issue I had to level up my witch allot now my witch is in cruel and well I have to do the same thing she is way too squishy against the first boss in act 2

He took me 3-4 tries and they were frustrating dieing when he had 5% health left, I just about died to the ambush after taking him out though. The next boss in the bottom of the mine with the flame skills kinda walked over that one.

Because of the DoTs there have been a few fights were I have died at the same time as the bosses, thankfully that still registers

What also weird is some of the unique drops I have gotten that are clearly low level items (some without even minimum levels on them and poor stats to match) from act 3+

And loosing the loot on a synced death is definitely a pain.

I'm still working my way through my first run, and of course am running a warrior as I've never really been a fan of ranged builds. Currently low 30s lvl, and sticking pretty much to the area levels.

I'm thinking I need to figure out some farming for rare item leveling "charms" (whatever they're actually called.... :) ).

Have I mentioned I really like the Monk :) Some melee, some ranged.

its funny I first tryed warrior and well it didnt work out for me I got frustrated and deleted it , so I switched and have tried out other toons the only one tha thas made it to endgame was a icestrike monk , then I went to a hybred witch but in order to level quicker I used a staff with icestrike ( like my monk build) but she seemed very slow on attacks so I went and started a new warrior played it for hours but then had a work post for a few days, today I jumped back on my witch and she seems fast on her attacks I think its because playing warrior with its slow windup attacks makes the the ice strike that I am using for leveling my witch seem fast lol the otehr reason why I am usaing myu icestrike build on m ywitch is becasue I am trying a build I watched that a witch uses detonate dead but itsd a bloodwitch so that means I need to do the ascendancies but dont put any points in until I get high enough level like around level 59-60 so that the life mana thing doesn't kill me when I use detonate dead lol. I tried this before but I put in the ascendancy points and well my witch kept dieing and when a person uses those ascendancy points you cannot remove them this is also why I am following a build for this witch

You can respec ascendancy points to the best of my knowledge. You just can choose a new ascendancy.

what I never knew that I heard that ascendancy point s once set are done and have no idea how to do that I am going to see if Icanm find out if it can be done and how to do it .
So I spent 150 points on quad tabs only to find out that it is only one tab not multiple tabs lol
ther is a rumour that the next patch they are bringing in the acts 3-5 but its a rumour not confirmed

I've confirmed that you can refund and reapply ascendancy points just like any other passives. However, you can not change your ascendancy.
