You’ll be need to spend about 60 bucks to get all the premium tabs you need to be efficient and have a good quality of life.

So basically the cost of any mainstay game.

The big bonus is that you’ll be able to see how you feel about the game before you put any money into it.

PoE is a great game and I only read a little in this thread and in my opinion it’s very telling the people having negative feedback on the game are in these sub forums talking about it.

Usually if a game is bad you set it down and forget about it.

I’ve spent a couple hundred dollars total on supporter packs in the 4 years I’ve been playing. I support the leagues I like but I also play the game a lot. ~500 hours a league probably.

It’s hard to get a neutral opinion/assessment on a game like this because I love it and although it has its problems it’s basically the only ARPG that’s engaging.

The people that dislike it have their reasons but some of them haven’t played in so long that there opinion isn’t relevant anymore. Or their opinion doesn’t represent the current state of the game.

TLDR:

Great game for me, can be a great game for you.

If you love complex games give it a shot.

Just thought I'd give my opinion on this ongoing debate

The most important thing is to just try the game

If you run into a wall or get frustrated, then reach out to players in-game or the jsp commmunity to receive feedback/advice
If after receiving feedback/advice and you still are running into problems and getting frustrated, then the game isn't for you

I do understand that asking for reviews/insight from past and current players can and will affect your opinion of the game and whether you want to 5ry or not, but all those reviews/insight is thrown out the window once you experience it yourself
One's experience does not dictate how the rest will experience it
You could give the exact same chicken to two different people and one might love it whereas the other will hate it

An easy analogy would be how most likely at least once in your life therr was a food/dish that you've never tried (possibly due to negative reviews from peers)
Later on in the future, you end up trying that dish and find it to be the most delicious thing you've ever had and now you're regretting all those years where you refused to eat the dish (or take this situation and flip it where you hear great reviews, try it and end up hating it)

TLDR: You're an adult and your own person. Go experience it and judge for yourself

PoE has a high learning curve for the average new player because there's a massive amount of content. There are many different viable builds, various different mechanics, the in-game currency/economy, etc.

Trading: I would use poe.trade for all your trading needs. I may be wrong, but GGG seems to be really cracking down on players that receive massive amounts of in-game currency in a single trade. (I'd avoid d2jsp for that type of trade)
Sell junk for chaos orbs, then buy exalted orbs. Once you feel very comfortable about item values, start looking for cheap items and flip them for profit. You'll learn economics over time.
Drops:I would use a loot filter such as filterblade.xyz
Builds: I would use a skill tree program called PoE Building Community Edition. The skill tree is huge (It's similar to FF10, but more in-depth) and variety of items is ridiculous. The I would also research starter builds on YouTube. Then move on to advanced builds once you have a decent number of exalted orbs built up.
Price checks: Find a unique or item you're unsure about? Use Poe.Ninja
Stash Tabs: I would strongly recommend buying one of each special tab if you end up really liking the game. It's a massive boost to your quality of life. I wouldn't recommend buying the special tabs until you understand what they are and you really like the game. You'll quickly learn why when you run out of room.

If I could say anything about PoE, I would say it's much better experience with a dedicated team of 5 players.

Sure make a list of what you need, almost anything from invasion and back, alt art, Demi item, legacy item (kaom heart not for trade) but got shavronne 247es 6L is the highest, 3-4 230-240es 6os, legacy iq rings amulet can craft 3 mod now or whatever all item are on hc btw

Edit and I will check I could make a list but to many

Only thing not for trade are light sabers, et, kaoms heart, Demi amulet will never trade

Every person who loves Diablo II should give PoE a try atleast!

It feels SOOOO much more like the true successor of D2 than D3 ever did.

Just try it and either be hooked or not... No need to spend any money on first few days of play time either... from a certain point on you will have to spend money on tabs thou.

poe is fantastic, it's biggest issue is lack of real pvp


and for new players well.. complexity

but still worth playing
