Dealing with Death Frustration

A go-to game might help when frustrated. Mine is World of Tanks, RNG is there too but you get to put all your saltiness to blowing up tanks and get the luxury to blame others (even if it's my fault) when losing ^^. But seriously, get out of PoE and do something else and remember that the game is set to make it hard for everyone to reach 100 so quitting is a real option.

poe is "play all day or gtfo", there is no real fun in only playing some hours per day, world of tanks allows you to quickly buy a overpowered tank and mess around.

while i don't like the pay to win aspect of WoT i wish poe had more diminishing returns when it comes to playtime/rewards, so short time players don't look that bad.

True you can buy overpowered tanks, but it doesn't mean you'll win right away because you still need to know your tank, positioning, and overall awareness to even get a good win rate. The quick resolution of battles and instant chance to redeem yourself is just the right mix for me as opposed to the grinding nature of PoE. I get to shake off crushing xp loss playing a solid PvP and "real" multiplayer game and then go back on the PoE saddle sometime later.

I feel like I would die no matter how much defense I have. I've learned my lesson so now I'm primarily focused on making glass cannons.
