Hi Everyone,

So I've just started PoE and am so far really enjoying it.

As most people recommend, I am following a build guide for my first character - that build is "Demi's PURE STRENGTH Righteous Fire Chieftain! SUPER BUDGET, UBER LAB/Atziri/T16 VIABLE". http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1729087/page/1

In the build under the leveling section it recommends the following:
Suggested Uniques: Goldrim, Wanderlust, Tabula Rasa, Axiom Perpetums/Lifesprings

My question is whether I need to be looking for certain stats on these items or for certain links and socket colours?

I am looking to level up quickly and am going to use some fg to get an advantage.

At the moment I am using sunder as a melee, but I am hoping to do what the guide suggests and go for a 4 link with Scorching Ray, Cast When Channeling, Firestorm, and Fire Penetration.

Am I taking on too much going a build like this?

Thanks for any help!

Just put those 4 gems in tabula.
There are multiple ways to level so you can do as you like. Just try to follow the tree so you have less to respec later.

Awesome thanks for that.
