Optimized Group Play In 3.22 - How A Friend Plans To Make 10 Mirrors Week 1 - POE Path of Exile
#poe #pathofexile #ancestors
I've had a number of extensive chats with a player who has led groups that have made 10+ mirrors in the first week of leagues, as well as beaten Simulacrum wave 30 within 16 hours of leaguestart. Goan, unfortunately, doesn't want to make his own Youtube channel, but reached out to me to share his expertise.
This video is a summary of Goan's insights about what matters in optimized group play - and some things that surprisingly don't matter.
A quick clarification - get to 2 Voidstones and permanent altars first, then go for filling the atlas reasonably quickly sticking in high tier maps where possible
