The Path of Exile Survival Guide #20: Farming Vaal for GG Drops - Act 2 Cruel
Tips, Tricks
I was not happy with my explanation of the vaal fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0pSb1m1XL0 -- better look there! In part 20 of the Path of Exile survival guide we finish off Act 2 Cruel by doing a few farming runs of Vaal to try and score some sweet loot! It's generally quicker to just go and farm City of Sarn or Docks in Act 3 but it's pretty fun to try and take advantage of the increased drop rate bosses have.

I have noticed that your rhetorical skills are spectacular
-
Freaking ridiculous drops :0
-
lol vaal gg items? HOW ABOUT NO
maybe dominus, but aside of that, all gg drops are END GAME MAPS...not shitty quest line bosses -
It's very helpful to see the sets on leveling. Most videos I see are all end game.
-
awful slippers, good bow :3
-
thanks for the guides almost in merciless because of you :) loving infernal blow marauder made soome slight tweaks myself but its good.
-
What lighting mod is that?
-
Nice vid ZiggyD! I reached a1 merciless with my first nemesis character, but sadly i died while loading into a zone. Still man, keep up the nice videos! :)
-
Hey ZiggyD, how do you get the sockets to show up so big for items on the ground? I've noticed they seem bigger in your videos and I can't find a way to make that happen in-game.
-
for mapping would you indicate what build? your ek build or this one?

5 days for only a 17 minute episode :(

It must suck to be a YouTube personality, you can't directly combat the idiots making stupid comments due to the fact you need to uphold a happy upbeat personality. I myself on my actual channel cannot do that, I won't say my name cause that's kinda cruddy but just wanted to say I appreciate your videos, I'm an experienced Poe player but still find your videos amusing, keep up the good work! Oh and thanks for the in game advice for my sweep detonate dead build!
-
I feel you should have pre-recorded a bunch of these videos so you could release them faster. I don't think even the newest player could level while following this series as they would simply outlevel the videos.
-
Hey ziggy wanted to thank you for the advice on using alts on 2h weapons for the marauder build. Saved me quite a few chaos! Managed to acquire several exalts for some really good 5L gear.
-
Most novice deaths I see are to your first advice for the Vaal fight. You NEVER run directly away from him to exit melee range. That's exactly how you lose your character in a real league on merciless. Keep doing it and eventually you get shot back with lightning. You should always move diagonally away so you're exiting melee range and also avoiding any potential lightning shot.
-
Mate, do you really think should be showing videos where you play with strategy, situational awareness and reactions that poor? A lot of casual players look up to you and this sets a really bad example.
-
Ziggy, just a quick thanks for this series. I started PoE with your first survival guide episode and now have several chars farming maps. This series really made getting thru the early phase of learning the game quite a bit easier. Thanks!
-
lol i was just farming vaal i want that new unique belly of the beast
-
I'm playing this build in nemesis. I was following these guides, but now I'm way ahead of you. I'm stuck on merciless weaver, I can't thin the lightning resist adds fast enough and get overhwhelmed. Thinking of levelling an ice or fire shot just for this fight.

Ziggy Reply! If you could do a series for subscriber build reviews that would be great, also my characters need some improvement in dps. Would really help some noobs like me understand what to do to achieve a higher survivability. Just a thought...
