A comprehensive introduction to all the classes in Path of Exile, as well as the differences and selection strategies of classes. The following content is mainly for the introduction of classes for new players. I hope everyone can get started quickly!

First, let’s take a look at the official introduction of each class. There are a total of 7 classes, namely Templar, Marauder, Witch, Range, Duelist, Shadow and a hidden class. After rescuing Scion not far from Act 3 final boss, you can choose the hidden class Scion.

Which Classes Are Comfortable To Use In Path Of Exile 1?

  • 1. Templar’s attributes are strength and wisdom. He is a class that is biased towards the elemental system. He can be an elemental magic system, an elemental attack system, or an elemental totem system.
  • 2. Marauder is a standard tank and output, which can crush the enemy like a tank. The disadvantage is naturally that the output is slightly insufficient. It is suitable for novices to fight monsters, and there is also a way to play using elemental totems.
  • 3. Witch is a traditional mage class. Although it has low HP, it has many AOE methods and high damage, which is more suitable for beginners.
  • 4. Ranger is an agile long-range DPS. Although it is easy to operate, it is not easy to use in practice because of low damage in the early stage, no range attack, and very low HP.
  • 5. Duelist is a semi-tank melee DPS, similar to the classes of swordsman and swordsman.
  • 6. Shadow is an agile and intelligent melee DPS. When using the charge skill to dodge, it also uses some trap skills. It is more suitable for players who like to deal with monsters and release debuffs on them.

This class introduction is only for beginners. You can play it however you want in the later stage. There is no fixed rule. However, as a beginner, you mainly need to kill monsters, level up and do tasks, so the first account should use the most conventional point method. It doesn’t matter if you play it badly. You can practice a character again very quickly.

The hidden class Scion can only be unlocked after reaching the third chapter and rescuing Scion at level 30 or above. This class is very comprehensive in all aspects and looks very good. After you unlock this class, I believe you have a deep understanding of various classes. Since Scion is a hidden class, it must be quite powerful. Players who like Scion should quickly clear the level and unlock it!

For POE 2, unlocking Ascendancy subclass is very necessary, because it can help your character gain more combat benefits, but the unlocking method is more troublesome and requires you to complete two more difficult trials.

In contrast, Ascendancy unlocking in the first game seems to be easy for you to ignore, but at the stage when 3.26 has not been released, if you still want to play Path of Exile, now is the best time for you to complete all Trials of Ascendancy in it - they can indeed bring you a power increase and should not be skipped. Based on this, I will introduce you to the locations of all Trials of Ascendancy in 10 acts of POE.Where Are Trial Of Ascendancy Locations In 10 Acts Of Path Of Exile?

What Is POE Trial Of Ascendancy?

You can think of Trial of Ascendancy in the first game as a minor puzzle. Although there are some dangerous elements in the process of completion, there is no boss, only regular enemies. After defeating them, you may randomly get POE Currency, and the difficulty is not high.

Where Can These Trials Be Found?

All trials in Path of Exile’s 10 acts can be divided into three levels: normal, cruel, and merciless. They are located in different acts according to their levels, as follows:

Normal Trials Of Ascendancy:

  • Act One: The Prison (Lower Level)
  • Act Two: The Crypt (Level One), The Chamber of Sins (Level Two)
  • Act Three: The Crematorium, The Catacombs, The Imperial Gardens

Cruel Trials Of Ascendancy:

  • Act Six: The Prison
  • Act Seven: The Crypt, The Chamber of Sins

Merciless Trials Of Ascendancy:

  • Act Eight: The Bath House
  • Act Nine: The Tunnel
  • Act Ten: The Ossuary

Eternal Labyrinth

As the final challenge, you need to unlock Eternal Labyrinth by offering sacrifices to the goddess after completing all trials. After completing this labyrinth for the first time, you will be able to unlock your Ascendancy class. Each starting class has three exclusive Ascendancy classes. For example, if your starting class is Witch, you will unlock Necromancer, Elementalist, and Occultist.

In order to fully utilize the power of these Ascendancy classes, it is recommended that you continue to complete other labyrinths to gain Ascendancy points, unlock new passive skills in your Ascendancy skill tree to enrich your combat skill selection.

If your Path of Exile character level is high enough and your gear is strong enough, then there is no time to lose, set out now to conquer these trials! Good luck!

How To Get Divination Cards In Path Of Exile?

As we all know, Path Of Exile is one of the most popular ARPG games. Here are some things you need to know.

There are many mechanics to keep track of in the game, as well as some limited-time mechanics that are part of seasonal leagues that happen every few months in the game. The mechanic that I recommend the most is called Divination Cards, which I will introduce to you and how to get them.

What Is It?

Divination Cards are very similar to Tarot cards. There are up to 446 Divination Cards in the game, which can be stacked to form multiple sets.

Different sets require different numbers of cards, and the number of each set can be seen on the left side of the card. For example, Rain of Chaos set requires eight cards, so you need to collect enough cards to get it.

How To Get Divination Cards In Path Of Exile?

Uses

When you have a complete set of Divination Cards, you can exchange them for the items listed in the item list. This is random, and if you’re lucky, you can get a weapon or POE Currency, but you may also just get something of lower value.

For example, Emperor’s Luck Divination card shown above requires you to get five cards to make up a set. Once you have the set, you can trade them in for 5x currency, which is drawn from the in-game currency pool. You might get something rare.

How To Get It?

Divination Cards drop much like other items in the game. You have a chance to get one when you kill an enemy or loot a container. So, the best way to get Divination Cards is to play in different map areas.

This means you need items that open portals to unique map locations. For example, Swamp map will take you to a swamp area, where you can find four types of Divination Cards.

As a little trick, if you farm Divination Cards on a map, you can use Maven’s Chisel of Divination to improve the quality of Divination Cards you find. But before that, you need to defeat Maven-witnessed bosses or complete Maven’s Invitation quest to obtain Maven’s Chisel of Divination.

I believe you have a general understanding of Divination Cards and how to obtain them. I hope it will be helpful for your game journey.

How Does Maw Of Mischief Scavenger Build Perform In POE Legacy Of Phrecia Event?

After the release of Path Of Exile 2 in early access, POE 1’s league updates were paralyzed for a time. In order to retain these original fans, GGG finally launched Legacy of Phrecia event to remedy the situation. In this event, you can use 19 new Ascendancy classes, which make many powerful builds appear in front of players again.

Here, we will introduce a powerful build that has been hotly discussed recently. It has a very bright performance in both mapping and boss battles. This is Maw of Mischief Scavenger! Whether you are looking for crazy clearing speed or huge single-target DPS, this build has both, and no Cluster Jewel is required! This means that you only need a very low investment in POE Currency to complete this build and have no obstacles in Legacy of Phrecia event! With 300k+ Spectre Life, 20m+ DoT DPS, and 90% effective block chance, this build has a very comfortable playstyle.

How Does Maw Of Mischief Scavenger Build Perform In POE Legacy Of Phrecia Event?

Build Overview

Now, the key to this build is Maw of Mischief Bone Helmet and Dark Marionette specters. Maw of Mischief gives us Death Wish skill. With this skill, we can detonate our minions to deal damage, and the amount of damage depends on the health of the exploded minion.

However, we use Dark Marionette specters for maximum damage, as they have very high health and automatically re-summon after the explosion.

In addition, the explosion will cause Ignite, which is also one of our main sources of damage. This Ignite then spreads to other enemies thanks to Berek’s Respite Unique Ring. The range of this spread is very large, and it can clear multiple screens of enemies at once!

Defense

Defense-wise, we have Svalinn Shield backing us up, with Lucky Block granting us a 90% chance to block attacks and spells. On top of that, we also get health from Hired Killer notable passive, which is essential for crazy life support during mapping. But be careful with Chaos DoTs, which is this build’s biggest weakness!

Tattoos

Also, this build makes use of Supreme Ostentation Keystone, which lets us use Tattoos to our heart’s content. We have a total of 30 Tattoos in this build, but you can equip more if you have enough Divine Orbs.

Ascendancy Class

For this build, we used Scavenger Ascendancy, which gives us a lot of unique item options. For example, we can use Blunderbore to get Shrine effect, Sinvicta’s Mettle to get Rampage, and Death Rush to get Adrenaline.

Upgrading The Helmet

Now, for this build to work, we do need Maw of Mischief Bone Helmet, and it can’t just be a low-level unique helmet, so we have to upgrade it with something else. For upgrades in this event, I recommend using Hexblast Scavenger Sanctum Farmer, which you can use and collect enough currency to re-enter Maw of Mischief.

As long as you follow this guide to build this build, I believe it will be absolutely amazing! I wish you gain everything you want from Legacy of Phrecia event!
