Apparently they are having some issue with someone who crashing the game.

Maybe a hacker trying to dupe or something?

I guess they figures it out and are going to patch it.

they have a twitter feed

They should have money for more servers ... last i checked they have pulled in over 2 million on beta starter packs.

That crash was hopefully the last one. The servers are now running the fixed version. Thanks for the feedback!

What classes is everyone playing?

I'm thinking about starting out as a Duelist.

Going for a 2h mace Marauder.

I realized that I better decide on what weapon to use now with this skill tree.

I'm pretty impressed with this skill tree. I already used 2 respec points and I think I messed up too. But I figure I'll just re-roll once I know whats up.

but ya, I messed up lol

I went for that lifesteal because thats whats hot on Diablo 3, lol. Stupid.

got the Act 1 boss on first try, on to Act 2!

Im ranger.

I made a Marauder too.

This is where I'm at so far... http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-s...XP567vDvcy-0U= I'm going 1her + shield. I need to start picking up some resists, though. The skeleton elementals in Act 2 are kicking my ass.

Lifesteal is trash early. It's based purely on how much damage you are doing and in the early stages you aren't doing shit.

Templar here.

Ya I died by those skeletons a few times then I found a new tactic, kill them before they kill me. So far it's working. :D

the skeleton casters are tricky. the best thing to do is load up on cold resist gear. cold doesn't do much damage to you but, if you get frozen the other casters will wipe you out. Watch out for the lightning bolts too. one isnt bad but it will put a shocked state on you. once you are shocked everything that hits you will do extra damage. the shocked state from lightning is multiplicative too. so if you get hit by lightning several times in succession, you're going to take double, triple, or quadruple damage. its best to just back off long enough for the shocked status to wear off or use a flask to remove it.

I have to go in, whack them a couple times, and then speed flask out.

The worst is when there's one of those guys that raise the dead and you have to dive into the middle of every skeleton to kill him.

Templar, Marauder, Duelist. I'm going to go 2H Templar with a balance of magic and str. See how that goes.

I use corpse explosion just so they can't be resurrected.

I just found that gem last night. Haven't socketed it yet because I don't have the right color.
