ok this makes more sense now about the ascendancy trials
I would have had 8 points instead of only 6 ... I had piggybacked into a carry and the solo-guy won right as everyone got wiped. Would have killed it quicker if it had half the HP

I didn't get started on this league until later in the evening. But I didn't have a single issue with it. I was reading that some people were having issues with crashing, but I never saw anything of the like.

I played an infernalist minion build last time. This time I went with a lightning arrow deadeye. It's definitely a massive difference in playstyle. I'm not used to being so 'active' in the action. Most content is straightforward and hasn't been an issue... Then I hit the headsman boss last night and I died 3 times before deciding I was way late for my bed. Being squishy means heavy hitting melee bosses can nearly one shot me. 😑

when I was able to play I die a few times right out of town lol
with my crashes I am wondering if it is a AMD video card issues I remember something similar happening when Ark Survivor Ascended's Aberration map came out I sometimes could load game and when I could it would crash in seconds in the POE2 new patch if I can load into game it would happen when I would enter a new area or I think opening my stash . I am sure they both are using the same engines ? in any case it took months before AMD figured out how to fix it I hope tha tit isnt going to be the same thing this time. at least with POE this is pretty much Beta testing but in Ark Survivor Ascended they put the game out as finished which at best it shouldnt have been released as even beta yet

ok cool POE2 is running smooth again little patch I think fixed it , funny thing I started a new character on the new patch played for a few hours was dieing a fair amount barely made it into act two to it took a long time. So I started the same type new character huntress\ Amazon set up exactly the same as the new patch, but I made her not on the new current season didnt use anything no money or any thing actually used the first speak r and it was I guesstimate 20% easier and well I am nto sure why its the exact same build played the exact same way but I got int oact two probably with in an hour maybe slightly more but the new season toon took me hours and again I didnt use anything not even mioney for the older season character . the other funny thing is the new season I want to call my character an Amazon she found a decent low level unique spear I think 20-40 damage with crits and a many other things added in, when compared to my none seaon spears which is I think 10-16 damage no crits just slightly faster attack speed its funny how easier it is to play on last seasons but everything else seems the same its almost like easy mode lol

The initial run of this season was brutal. But they patched it and it's been much better since.

After my minion build last season, I wanted something different. So I went with a ranger for a more engaged play style. And holy man is it different. Survivability is nowhere near the minion witch, but my play speed is crazy. I have limitless DPS and am flying through content. I got lucky with some gear crafting and I've been solid for DPS from about lvl 30. I'm now 82 and running T12 maps. I can rip through them, but one mistake gets me killed as I can't take a hit.

I started out with a Amazon got to act two and started to not do so good so I started a a warrior just because last season I couldnt do will with it and so far I am doing pretty good having issues with again act two end boss because the perfect strike is missing als oI keep missing the potion button to heal myself but this warrior seems much more tanky he is slow and even with crap armour he is more tanky and when I am hitting I can see the health pool of boss still going down after a hit whch for me ias a first so I am thinking I am going to stick with him. its funny I am all oevr the place with his points I think I will have to go back and change it all up so it doesn't look like some psycho is making this build
I am wondering is everyone actually is doing the season starting fresh or are you still having access to all the pre season stuff like moneys and other things. I was watching many people on youtube talking about season starters but they are not actually starting fresh they all have access to all the goodies like being able just add in more sockets to add in even more support gems like level 2 or three to me this is not actually season it to me is cheating lol then the other thing where I tried the preseason, and it actually feels easier than new season I mean I made two exact builds but the preseason on with even crappier equipment was able to get through much easier than this new season
