Path of Exile Solo Self Found (SSF) Guide

You can find the guide here: http://www.requnix.com/path-exile-solo-self-found-ssf-guide

Lots of good info... but many of your opinions are being stated as facts. You are also biased by the "best-or-gtfo" bug. Most new players don't have this yet, and it can really harm a new player's feel for the game. You've got to remember that you were new once too, and not try to drag people up to your level too quickly or they'll simply not enjoy themselves and quit. A good beginner's guide needs to know this.

Using terms like "pizzablaster" can be very off-putting to a new player.

You need to channel your inner noob a bit more, while still retaining the knowledge that you have and want to transmit.

Good effort. I just skimmed through, not sure if you mentioned:

1.) Check all the vendors every level up, for 6S, tricolor, 5L items and hammers
2.) Pick all the hammers while you level, you'll need them badly later for chisel recipe

Both are mentioned in the article.


I read most of it; overall a pretty good job, it does have some information that isn't necessarily true / lacking but it's solid work.


e.g. 1 - "tri-colored + linked" items = chrome


e.g. 2 - I seriously doubt ED has a brick wall at t10 without Consuming dark; T10 is too low for brick walls.


e.g. 3 - "All builds run into a brick wall without the right gear. Whether it’s due to lack of uniques, jewels, DPS or armor. This brick wall can prevent lab runs, boss completions and getting stuck in the atlas. Be prepared for this. If a brick wall is hit, one of the best things you can do is create another character. PoE was built for this. Embrace it."


That's not true, either; Exaggeration! ALL builds and advice is to make another char, not farm cards / craft items? :P

I didn't know what is it and when I've figured it out I snorted loudly :D

Interesting read, nice work. :)

Excellent work, must read for any new ssf players. Did you have a link to crafting recipes (e.g. +spell level Wands)?

P.

Moog - you only talk about selling yellows for alts- do you think the chaos recipe will be useful for ssf?

Well its about the only way you are going to get a decent amount of chaos in ssf. Its not like it really takes long to do either.
