this reminds me. Do support gems only support the linked adjacent skills, or the entire chain?

The entire chain. Rather all the active skill gems in the chain.

Played a few hours this weekend.
Definitely a fun game, and I love how casual it feels at
the beginning. I'm following a build with the one skill
that made me try out this game back when it was released;

Spectral Throw :sohappy:

Still amazed at how cool it looks to throw your weapon in
triplets :P

Starting off sc because noob :sohappy:

Want to get a bit familiar with the game again first.
Is HC league also harder, or is it just that you are not
supposed to die?

You're punished hard for dying. Character gets transferred to the standard league, that is the actual Standard league and not the Harbinger Standard temporary league.

What's your IGN? Don't have you on my friends list in game.

I'm pretty sure my IGN right now is Cinisi, but I'll get
back to you on that. Will be making a Scion once I unlock it.

Ol3n is on man mode HC Harbinger. I'm on casual mode SC Harbinger.

No problem at all man. Would be fun if others would join too.
I'm lvl 33 now I think, almost done with the first acts to get Scion.
Then I'll see if I reroll, but will probably just explore the next acts a bit on this Marauder.
Really enjoying myself, and wishing I had more time to play lol :P

And @dom, those are some nice resistances :O

And guys, one quick question, is Crafting something to do after a certain level, or is it worth playing around with on low levels? I got some orbs (lowbie orbs, not the cool ones) laying around, but don't really want to waste anything..

The low value orbs you're free to use if you need to. So the Transmutes, Augmentations, Alterations as well as the Whetstones and Scraps are mostly free to use unless you're spamming hundreds of them of course. I'd be a bit careful with using the Alchemy, Fusing, Chromatic, Chance and Jeweller orbs. They're worth a bit more.

Nice @dom.

Got another question;
I'm running out of stash space (filled with noob items, i know, but I want to keep some of it for when I roll another char).
Would you guys recommend getting the 6 stash tab expansion, or a quad tab, or premium tabs, or whatever?
And if so, is there any benefit in taking a $30 donator pack and getting some cool shine on a weapon? lol

If you need stash space then I would highly recommend getting the normal tabs but getting at least one premium tab. The premium tabs can be used for trading so having one is very useful and a major quality of life improvement.

The supporter packs are just to get some extra flair but otherwise have no additional benefit.

Thanks for the tip, got the premium tabs pack.
Also got the pack with the harbringer tiger, because why not..

Sooooo I'm finally stuck-ish at a boss for the first time.
I'm a bit too blunt a player to deal with mechanics so will have to pay attention at this one..
Still having a ton of fun, but I'm probably doing things wrong.
Like, I'm using only 3 or 4 skillgems at lvl 44.
While my guide states I need to use like 10+.

I did however make my brother play as well so I guess that's positive :sohappy:

Soooooo I made a scion ranger and got pretty much geared up, lvl 69 now I think.
However, I got me a Kaoms heart because it was recommended, but I had to stick a lot of points in added STR to be able to wear it.
And now I kinda feel bad because the kaom obviously doesn't have sockets and I'm wondering if I made the right choice...
Is it worth sticking random passive points in the +30 STR's, or should I have just kept on going dex and gone for a different chest?

Also, which plugin do you guys use for current prices.. All I found was the copypaste thing online.. I'm using neversink for loot filter, but haven't found a good price checker plugin..

Getting the +30 Strength nodes is fine as long as they're just 1 point to get. Kaom's Heart is a really good chest piece so you're fine.

The only thing I use to check prices is www.Poe.Trade

Alright, thanks for that. Will keep the Kaom's :)
Now just need to work on the right links on my other gear..
Bow has 4green2red linked, but I was using 6greens...
Ah well. Will see how it goes :sohappy:

Decided to play a "ranged" character for once this league so having fun with some mirror arrow.

Oh, and a shameless plug, I decided to start streaming on twitch again so if anyone feels like tuning in or hanging out in chat I'll be over at http://www.twitch.tv/PinkPenguinTV. Been like 3 years since I last streamed :P

I'll see if I can find some time to watch your streams some time :)

I have a question;
Usually in games I've played where crafting was a thing, there would be some quests to introduce us to crafting. I haven't found such quests in PoE. Do they exist, or is it just a matter of finding some guide on the forums and then a ton of trial and error?

The latter, I believe there is a "help" section that probably has some good entries on crafting.

You have any personal experience with crafting @0l3n, or you usually grind, save and buy?
