The wild references to Finland in Honkai Star Rail

Hello, in this post I'm going to go over the various references to Finland in Honkai Star Rail (Also touching a little on HI3) and explaining them the best I can so that non-finns can understand how hilariously delightful they are.

_

Starting with a funny one: Welt Yang.

The man is canonically 1/2 finnish, 1/4th chinese and 1/4th german according to sources I dont understand.

The way this is represented in Honkai Star Rail comes in one intentional form and one that may be an accident but I love it anyway:

1.

Welt's given name is Joachim Nokianvirtanen, a name that is utterly hilarious to a finn like me. Why? Well Nokianvirtanen is not a surname anyone here would ever have. Virtanen is a real surname, but for some reason Mihoyo decided slap Nokia in the front of it??

The name translates to "Nokia's rapids." Which adds to the funniness because yes Nokia is an actual place in Finland and not just the brand, but it is also very much the brand.

(Also Joachim is not a finnish name even if many finns are christian.)

This is the equivalant of naming an american character Jesus McDonaldslake.

2.

Welt's hair colour! A lot of people imagine blond and blue eyes when imagining a finn, but that's not actually accurate to the statistics. The most common hair colour here is in fact "Maantien harmaa." Translating to country road grey. Sometimes they leave out the word grey or replace it with blond. The colour is known as dirty blond or pale brown in english speaking countries 👍 This is less funny and just a cute detail.

_

Secondly we'll be going over Sampo Koski, a man many know to have a very finnish name.

BUT FIRST Fun backround info: I didn't know Sampo was in this game when I first started playing, so when he showed up and suddenly dropped finnish words at me I was utterly jumpscared.

Finland is very rarely referenced in media outside of our country, so most of us are NOT used to hearing anything about our home in media.

Furthermore there's actually a meme about this very thing that everyone in the country knows: Torilla Tavataan. This translates to "Lets meet at the marketplace" which is referring to the idea that when something massively cool happens we should gather together and celebrate.

The finns REALLY want to be acknowledged by the wider world lol

Anyway back to Sampo. His name is actually something I could totally see a real finn having, although his first name is a little out there.

Sampo is an item from finnish* mythology that was forged by a super capable smith with the help of his whole village. The item is golden with multiple spouts that produce valuable things like flour, gold and I believe... salt? You can find more about the item online.

Koski meanwhile means a river rapid. Uhm, lotsa water themed names here, huh!

Nothing that funny going on with his references to be honest. I can even say the voice actor did an amazing job pronouncing his name correctly.

_

Yunli's companion quest!

This is the newest batch of references I've ran into, but if I or anyone else finds more I'll be updating this list :]

In Yunli's companion quest we meet... Paavo. His name is Paavo--

This NPC introduces himself as a traveler from far away who's come to deliver a sword from his homeland back to the Xianzhou where it was originally forged. Here's why he made me giggle uncontrollably every moment he was on screen.

1.

Paavo is considered kind of a joke name, very comparable to naming someone Bob in america. The way NPC's referred to him sounded like "Mr. Bob" to me. It was so funny

2.

He is from the PLANET KALEVALA?? SAFlJ LJ ???

Kalevala is the national epic of Finland* and tells stories such as the one of Sampo's creation. The title does refer to setting of the story, but it is still weird to hear it as a name of a planet lol.

3.

Our food is really repetitive u right Mr. Paavo

4.

Paavo explains the sword he has come to deliver is called Miekka Kivessä. This is the finnish translations of "The sword in the stone." he proceeds to then explain the legend of the sword in the stone, which. It's not a finnish legend. We've never had a king, yet alone chosen them with a sword-- Not even in myths. Kalevala's highest ranking guy in the mortal realm is Väinämöinen who's an old wise man.

Also he says Miekka Kivessä wrong but that's to be expected, very funny, and also I admire the effort to at least try and make it sound natural.

5.

Finally, he later reveals his last name-- Which, why are we refering to him as Mr. Paavo if he has a last name...? Oh well! Mr. Paavo's last name is Kalastaja, which translates to Fisher. This is not a real last name in Finland. The english equivalent of this man's goddang name would be something like Mr. Bob Employee.

_

Since you've made it this far I assume you won't mind me rambling a bit more. I'm personally psyched to see Finland mentioned in non-finnish media and love the wonky but genuine attempts to include us!

I think considering how many weebs there are in Finland who've come up with illogical "Asian names" to sound cool online, it's only fair we got the same treatment back :P I hope they'll keep delivering and I'd love to visit planet Kalevala one day.

_

*It's worth noting Finland is a colonizer of the Sami people, and a lot of their culture has been annexed without any care or respect towards them.

Finland was also under colonialism itself for hundreds of years, and our myths have been largely lost to time with only some information left. It's super difficult to tell what is finnish mythology and whats the Sami people's mythology.

That's a fact that's deeply important to remember when discussing things like this, and I hope that the people reading this consider looking into how to help the indigenous people of the nordic region. Thank you.

[orphiclovers]

a bit of neat worldbuilding in the Player hides his past is that at first we get the MC's perspective with all the typical system manhwa words - they're "awakened as a player" and the people from the game are NPCs who can give quests. but. it's a total backround detail but the people from the game call themselves "arcanians" and the players "explorers" and they have their own opinions on what happened - they don't see it as "game became reality" but "worldview interference" - as well as the mages researching the "explorer's science" just as curious about it as the players are about magic.

idk it's an unexpected depth for a manhwa to pay attention to the language and cultural differences of the characters

[nomnomroko]

Hi, your art is really cool and I like all of your OCs, I’m curious about what Star Trek Legacy is!

Hi! thank you <3 I'm glad you like my work!

As for what the Legacy RP is, it's a 12 year old small RP group that originated on Deviantart, (it spawned from an star trek OC themed tournament back in 2010 when the reboot was popular) and is unrelated to the newly annouced Star Trek Legacy series. We've since moved to Discord and while we don't RP much anymore (responsible adult life is hard :') ), we still discuss headcanons and do creative work for it regularily. The RP itself is set in an Alternative Universe somewhere between the reboot and TOS in terms of technology and fits into the gap between TOS and the original movies (so 2273-2280ish), but is mostly disconnected from offical characters and events. It's about the USS-Legacy, an exploration vessel very low on Starfleet's priority list, and its missadventures and the crew's interpersonal dramas. Lev (the blond guy I draw a lot) is my main rp character and the chief medical officer aboard the ship. The other characters in my posts are largely my friends's rp characters (and a couple of backround "npcs" of mine). So yeah, basically it's a long running RP and it's brought me a lot of joy and comfort over the years and I like drawing for it a lot. I hope that kinda explains it!

(have a rough senior staff sketch from our season 5, I don't really have a good newer group shot :'( sorry)

[mod--soul]

Just finished The Mandalorian and I’m surprised it lived up to its hype. I’ve never watched any of the Star Wars movies, I know the important bits I think, but all in all I’m lacking lots of infos on people, places and easter eggs. Yet, I did still enjoy the show and there are still a lot of thoughts I need to process.

Mainly these three points

The Helmet

While I am in no way able to talk about the real life connotations do I see one thing that I cannot fathom.

There are people out there that accept that a fictional character chooses to keep covering his face due to his religious/cultural backround, yet at the same time would belittle real life women whose culture/religion leads them to make the very same choice.

Shouldn’t they learn from the (albeit vastly different) fictional example and adapt it to a real life situation? Educate themselves instead of being hypocrites?

The Tone

The show is - even though it’s a Disney-show - in no way a kids show, they do kill 20 to 50 beings minimun per episode. Yet, that does not change the fact that to me it has a “feelgood” feeling and from what I found a lot of people think so too.

But why and how is that possible?

I do believe it is mostly due to Pascal’s performance. Mando/Din is most of the time calm and collected in speech and demeanor and that carries a lot into the overall tone. Sure “Baby Yoda” and the interactions with him do their part, but I do believe - as seen in Season 2 Episode 7 - that it’s not just him.

The combination of the acting and the score carried the same tone as it did in every other episode.

Which basically leads me to point three:

The Genre

Favreau (and Filoni) call it a Space Western, and sure, you have the lone wolf thing going and the shootouts, still it doesn’t fell like a western to me.

It feels like a (MMO)RPG campaign in space.

Every episode Mando/Din has to fullfill a task before he gets the information/thingamabob he needs to accomplish is overall mission.

Did you notice that?

In addition does he seem to me like the pacifistic character that tries to negotiate or intimidate his way out of a fight before it’s starting, yet his allies - or sometimes the enemies - usually turn him/them into the “Murder Hobo/s” trope.

Because of this viewpoint, I do believe the mass murder aspect of the show becomes less obvious as to the viewer with a certain (MMO)RPG/Pen and Paper/Gaming background all those killed are mere NPCs with barely any personality to them. Cannon fodder so to speak.

Is this RPG-narrative combined with calm acting and the flimsy/playful, yet incredible score what makes this such a good show?

I don’t know, have to ponder that a while longer ...

[ifoundthisdndshit]

So ya'll get this. I'm playing a campaign, we just ended session 3 maybe 2 to 3 days ago, and my DM hits us with highly accurate meme depictions of our characters.

I am in love with these. They are gorgoues. It's a wild west campaign and holy shit these cowboys and girls are really getting me! Love when the DM does in depth backround and character creation 😭😭😭😍😍

Wildmount Monday Night 8pm (paid)

Game: D&D 5e Group preferred: Online (Roll20) Experience: All Levels Location/Timezone: Eastern Availability: Monday Night 8pm Preferred role: DM

Welcome one and all to Wildmount, this fantastically land is a wonderful sandbox for your D&D pleasure, brought to you by me DM Mystic. Our epic adventure begins on the not too far from the jewel of the Menagerie coast, Port Damali. For one reason or another, your character will find themselves in Palma Flora, whether it be to enjoy a peaceful retreat or the thrill of shark hunting, or whatever marvelous inventive reason your own design. All aboard! The waters looks calm, warm and inviting, but beneath the waves there is a mystery to unravel!

This is a truly open ended campaign, my plan is to bring you from 1 to level 20, if you aspire to be one like one of the Mighty Nein, shoot for the stars! Word of caution in your ambition though, I am not Matt Mercer, this will be YOUR adventure and I will be the DM to guide you, so let take a chance and roll some DICE!

Now that we have gone over the Hype and got you blood rushing a bit, lets go over some of the basics of how the game shall be run, there won't be any shockers, if you a good player, please feel free to skip the point below:

1) Cursing is allowed at my table, however in moderation. Should you design a fowl mouthed character by all mean RP that shit up all you like, but keep it relatively clean so as to not make other uncomfortable.

2) Be respectful of the time people spend in the spotlight, please try and keep talking over one another to a minimum. Granted we are all getting to know one another and over time we will develop a tempo that will nearly cut this down to non-existence.

3) Mic check, mi mi mi MIC CHECK! Lets all face it at one time or another we've all been in a game and heard tons of backround of another players Mic. This can and does diminish the fluidity of the game as well as people enjoyment. No one needs to hear you munching on cheetos between your round of combat!

4) This for the majority will run as rules as written, if you want to do something on the fly that kind of bends the rules but doesn't outright break them... Well let the RULE OF COOL Rule! Though it will be sparing, reserved for epic moments and not every session. I am fine with Rule lawyers, but once I made a call let it be and we can chat after the session as much as you like. 5) Be Cool and have FUN!!

What you can expect from me:

I am light-hearted, easy going and have a great sense of humor, I am here to have as much fun if not more than you guys! I really do strive to put you in that world, in that moment and help you fully realize in vivid description how cool and bad ass your character and your actions are. Conversely, actions do have consequences, so things can go real sideways if you murder hobo! This will of course vary with each person and each group I run, but I am for a 30% RP, 10-15% exploration and the rest combat. I will by no means will ever make you RP if you don't want to, but I do reward good RP and inventive thinking more than combat XP. I run a mix of XP and milestone type system, that account for attendance, so if you miss a whole bunch of games you might be a level or two behind the rest of the party, which is totally fine! Life happens, it is what it is, Now for the nitty Gritty:

I love providing an immersive experience, I will be using a soundboard through discord for background noise, ambient sounds, battle music and sound effects. I use a voice mod app to give each NPC there own sound, because I am not a voice actor! I am putting in a ton of effort to make this a memorable, please have a good headset so you can take full advantage of my efforts. There is a choice to be made right of the bat... Roll for stats OR take point buy once you've decided there's no going back until that character either gets written out or dies (which you can completely do the 1st session if you want). Next Variant human is okay and every other race that is within my compendium!

This is pay to play, for anyone interested in joining or have any question hit me up on discord:

Anyone else love being a backround NPC? like not a shopkeep or librarian that people interact with, but one who makes the city populated, one who adds easter egg gossip for main characters to eavesdrop on but ultimately affects nothing besides immersion?

[plathacademyhq-blog]

If someone wanted to make like a Plath fanfic, would that be allowed? Like, selecting a few characters to be the main ones, with others in the background and stuff? Because I have an idea for a story about like if maybe three or so of the characters were trying to get to the bottom of the whole "Creeper" thing and have to figure it out before the Creeper does anything severe, with other characters occasionally appearing in the backround, and stuff like that. Would that be allowed?

The fact that you’re so interested in the plot that you would want to do this is honestly the sweetest thing! But, there are a few reasons we have to say no. Firstly, the Creeper is an actual character in Plath, and not just a plot-based NPC. So, not only would writing anything having to do with them be god-modding, but writing other member’s characters into the story would be as well. And the future of the Creeper plot is all planned out very specifically, and to write something leading up to anything “severe” for them to do would end up being fairly un-loyal to the plot, since no one but us and the mun know what’s to come. Sorry, love. But again, your interest and excitement for the plot is so appreciated and we promise when more is delivered, you won’t be disappointed.

Route of Exile：General Tips for Racing

How to get started

In the character selection display screen, you'll find a box below your listing of characters displaying forthcoming racing events. Once the event is near to beginning, you'll be able to click 'Join' and create the character for the competition. You'll log in at the Twilight Strand (or other starting areas, depending on the type of event) and wait till the race begins.

Saving Time

Decision-making is an important aspect of racing, and learning to create choices quickly includes experience and exercise. This applies to many aspects of racing, including: inventory management, gem setup, skill woods decisions and equipment choices. It's better to start off with a strategy than to figure this out during a competition when under pressure.

Area Knowledge

Just like saving time, area knowledge is acquired with life experience. Some resources are available, but your ability to identify which layouts you’re confronted with is going to figure out how quickly you can progress through a zone.

Race Knowledge

If you are likely to spend an hour or even more playing the Buy Path Of Exile items  game, doing all of your research and reading through up about what you’re going to play is a great time investment. This can help avoid any unwanted surprises. Some of the races have mods designed to challenge experienced players and are likely to drastically change your experience from the original game.

Movement Speed

Because you’ll be spending a lot of time running through areas, you'll want to obtain as much movement speed as you can. This is the great layer of defence against creatures.

Wearing body armour or a shield slows down you down. You really an informed decision, very carefully considering the benefits and drawbacks of the gear you choose. As a general rule, prioritising evasion-based equipment is usually the way to go, as the penalty isn't because significant as with other body armours.

Within the earliest stage of the game, keeping an eye out for mysterious boots and examining in with the vendor can also be quite important, because 10% movement speed can accumulate a significant difference over time.

With 3. 0. 0 came level 1 support gems. The most known one for backrounds is Onslaught; you need to use that linked to your primary skill until you achieve a point where you obtain onslaught elsewhere (from either a flask or Ascendancy choices).

If you are a melee course, it is recommended that you skip the Mercy Objective quest, as your access to Leap Slam combined with a fair quantity of attack speed can make a Quicksilver Flask rapidly irrelevant. But spell casters nevertheless need to ensure they complete the Mercy Objective quest in order to get the Quicksilver Flask as soon as possible. If a second flask drops, it usually provides more power than any other kind of flask at this point hanging around. If you can afford this, use currency onto it to improve your flask mods. Having extra charges or cost recovery helps a lot in sustaining your movement speed potential.

Life and Mana Flasks

Life flasks keep you alive, therefore making sure you're using the highest tier flask for your level is necessary. Be aware of the specific limit levels (such because 1, 3, 6, 12, 18) to know when to look for all of them. You cannot afford the constant mana cost of your skills at level 20 with the preliminary small mana flask. As a melee player, this is exacerbated through their early use of leap slam. After killing Brutus, purchasing a large mana flask is preferable. They are available at the vendor with regard to scrolls of wisdom if you cannot find one. Additionally it is possible to update to the next tier if you have three of the exact same tier below electronic. g. 3 Large Life Flasks sama dengan 1 Greater Life Flask.

Socket Colors and Links

In addition to having an idea regarding which skills as well as support gems you’re going to use, having an appropriate item filter highlighting your requirements will save you a lot of trouble. Some item filters tend to be specifically designed for racing, but global types like NeverSink's product filter can be adequate. It's also good to be familiar with the Quest Benefits article for this purpose.

It is a matter of personal preference, but considering essential early links became with the addition of level 1 support gems, it might be worth checking that the item filter is actually appropriately displaying 3-4 link gear. If you aren’t familiar with the optimal gear you should be using at different amounts, your item filter should help a lot with this.

Useful Recipes

You can find some details about these here however later in this post we will detail these further, based on which personality archetype you're going for.

Buying Items

Each of the NPCs can provide you with equipment, for example: base products you need, magic products, jewelry, flasks or specific gems. Some magic items can cost two Scrolls of Wisdom, which makes all of them a very good purchase in very early amounts (depending on their mods).

Prioritizing experience more than progression

As a global rule when it comes to killing monsters, outside of a good area-per-area guide (which would include the level penalty - you really want to avoid being a lot more than 6 level beneath the area), the size of the pack and also the onslaught uptime should be the main factors whenever deciding whether it is worth killing.

Develop planning

When planning for any longer race, unless of course you’re willing to use a fair number of repent orbs, you’ll have to find an appropriate middle ground between a good optimal racing build, and how you’re planning your character (that is, if you’re interested in going quick and competing for the first hours of the new league).

Vendoring Items

Selecting what you need to pick up from monster drops is one of the most important components of racing. Vendoring unidentified rare or magic items will give you transmutation shards. Once they're identified however , selling to the vendor will result in alteration shards. Those are both currencies that you will need in order to buy jewelry (granting attributes) or gems at the vendor. Picking up white items that take up minimal area in your inventory can also be a good way to farm Scrolls of Wisdom.

Archetype Specific Recommendations for Race

Melee Racing -- Gearing up

Metal Rings are a very important part of your harm. At a low level they have a huge effect on your damage outcome. While it can make your character vulnerable within other ways, reaching particular thresholds of being able to kill monsters within 1-2 hits is actually where you want to be in case you aim to go quick and compete. They are able to also be used in later levels within vendor recipes with regard to elemental resistance rings.

Magic gloves as well as jewelry are an additional potential source of extra damage.

Belts -- Since most of your damage is physical or scaled through physical, a Rustic Sash belt can provide a fair amount of harm (up to 24% increased). You can also use them for upgrading your weapons through a vendor recipe. Using an Orb of Alchemy in early stages can provide very useful mods, for example additional strength, and can be used within vendor recipes later on. It's a good investment. In this case, keep an extra to avoid running around beltless.

Dual Wielding may be the optimal option with regards to speed. You may be using skills focusing on the main hand (Sunder, Ancestral Warchief), however the attack speed bonus supplied by dual wielding cannot be overlooked.

Beware of the actual stat requirements of the items or gemstones you intend to use. Each class has different requirements, and there are no guarantees which you’ll have possibly the currency to purchase an item, or that this specific type you want is available at the vendor.

Melee recommended abilities (Marauder, Duelist, Ranger, Scion):

Cleave linked with Onslaught, chance to lose blood (to be switched later)

Ancestral Guard linked with Maim, chance to bleed (if your primary skill isn’t using it)

Molten Hit can push your single target somewhat higher, but Cleave can be enough.

Sunder to use instead of Cleave once level twelve, can be used as single target too.

It can recommended that you use either axes or swords when using Cleave. Ensure that you pick up higher base types while you go, as they really are a significant upgrade. When you get Sunder, maces are an option.

Engage packs of enemies with Cleave. You can summon your totem if the size/rarity of the pack justifies this. With Sunder, you have significant kiting abilities. Monsters trailing a person tend to line up -- going forward and engaging several packs at the same time is optimal. Ancestral Protector isn't always relevant by then, however against magic packs or bosses it is advisable to a good tool to have available.

Once you achieve level 10 (and after you've killed Brutus), you will also gain access to Jump Slam, which is a helpful movement skill.

Ranged recommended skills:

Shrapnel Shot linked with Onslaught, chance to bleed (to be switched later).

Siege Ballista linked with Maim, chance to lose blood (if your main ability isn’t using it)

Ranged recommendations cannot be as clear reduce as the above classes, because of varying preference in playstyle. Both Lightning Arrow as well as Rain of Arrows are good Area of Effect skills but vary significantly in gameplay. Lining up creatures benefits both of your main skills: Shrapnel Shot and Siege Ballista. While you have the ability to fight monsters through afar, engaging all of them in close range to group all of them in clusters enables you to clear them effectively, especially as obtaining the Keystone Point Blank helps pushing your damage early game.

Lightning Antelope has to be used with the actual Lesser Multiple Projectiles Support gem to be able to have a decent Section of Effect, whereas Rainfall of Arrows can work by itself but features a delay between the use and the hit. They are both viable options - it simply depends which choice works best for your scenario.

After killing Brutus and reaching level 10, you get access to Blink Arrow. As it has a cooldown, make sure that you use it to the greatest of your abilities.

Caster Racing - Gearing Up

Your harm is based in the subsequent weapon types: Wands, Sceptres and Daggers. The affixes having the most impact tend to be +1 to socketed skill gem degree of the appropriate elemental type, and flat spell damage of any elemental type.

There are a vendor recipe to address the +1 to socketed skill gemstones, but it doesn't work upon daggers. You also cannot dual wield the sceptre and a wand. For the flat spell damage, pick up the relevant weapon type, looking to get the highest ones feasible. Having an idea which ones spawn at which level is one way to optimize your gear choices for casters.

Unlike Assault based players, you can pick the jewelry for his or her survival aspects: Coral formations Rings or Elemental Resistance rings. You can keep Iron Rings for their recipe use.

Be aware of the stat requirements of the products or gems you would like to use. Each course has different requirements, and there’s no guarantee you’ll possess either the currency to buy an item, or that the specific type that you want is at the vendor.

Staves are a poor option for racing, so you're best dual wielding. A shield can be considered, however doesn't provide just as much damage as a weapon. It will also slow a person down.

Caster suggested skills (Witch, Templar and Shadow):

Getting stuck pulse linked with Onslaught and Arcane Surge.

Fire Trap linked with Elemental Proliferation, additional lightning damage.

(Templar doesn’t have access to Fire Trap, so it is suggested to mule the Shadow to pick up Fire trap and Onslaught, also necessary upon witch for Onslaught. Worth using this necessary step to check suppliers as well)

Spark has a stronger single target component, however requires specific placing.

Firestorm / Flame surge become available at level twelve, however Shadow has to rely on Lightning Trap.

Keep your Arcane Surge at level 1, it will come in handy later on once linked to your movement skill.

Orb of Storms as well as Flame Totem may both be used, however their damage outcome is fairly low. While you have the ability to fight creatures from afar, engaging them in near range, and moving them into grouped groups allows you to clear more efficiently. Use Fire Trap to engage creatures and Freezing Heartbeat to pick off resistant targets. Freezing pulse also has a survival aspect due to the cool or freeze element.

At level twelve, you get access to Firestorm. You can use it as a main skill or to optimise your personality, use it combined with the facilitates Trap and Multitrap for very good protection. Use Flame Surge for single focuses on.

Flame Dash is a decent movement ability, but has a short range and restricted use with a cooldown (similar to traps). However , it can be used to kill monsters using its base damage, and also the trail of burning ground left behind could be combined with Flame Surge.

General Gem Recommendations:

Level 16 gemstones:

· Herald of Ash if you are attack-based.

· Blood Rage is a must.

· Herald of Thunder and Herald of Ice if you are spell-based, if you can afford this both in currency, hyperlinks and stat requirements.

Level 18 gemstones:

· Faster Assaults needs to go with your Leap Slam.

· Depending on your weapon, different support gemstones can be used with Sunder.

· Controlled Destruction or Concentrated Effect as a spell caster, especially when combined with Firestorm.

· Faster Casting to go with Flame Dash

Level twenty four gems:

· Hatred if you are attack dependent, but you won’t become using it as early due the constant mana consumption from Jump Slam

· Wrath if you deal lightning damage (Shadows involving Lightning Trap advantage most from this, although other classes may use it as well)

· A Problem is an option to pick up to use against bosses.

Level 28 gemstones:

· Ancestral Warchief

· Flameblast (combined with spell totem)

Area Guide

The Twilight Strand: Run straight to Hillock. Don't bother killing extra monsters on the way, however opening up chests can sometimes give you a crucial extra item.

The Coastline:

Another area where killing monsters isn't very rewarding enough for the time you spend, however contains many chests. Make sure to grab the actual waypoint if you are planning to kill Hailrake.

The Tidal Island:

With regard to spellcasters only

The very first challenging fight, not to be taken lightly. Run straight to Hailrake as well as engage him carefully. Kiting is encouraged as you can quickly become confused or targeted through Hailrake's spell. After you've killed him you can log out to return to town more quickly. Be sure to pick up the Swallow Flask from Nessa. It's usually a good time to check the vendor for the early gear (rings, miracle wands/sceptres or three links gear).

The Mud Flats:

Be familiar with charging Rhoas. Get the three required mission glyphs as rapidly as you can without spending a lot of time killing monsters.

The Submerged Passage:

Zombies and Spawns tend to be easy targets with regard to gaining experience as well as flask charges. Look out for the bridge leading up to The Ledge, it is almost always populated by a rare monster. If you find The Flooded Depths, a person went the wrong way. The skill point mission isn't worth performing in short races, and in longer ones as this is usually the point hanging around where you are the slowest, it is advised to skip it. If you really want to go for it as soon as possible while remaining efficient, you can use a city portal at the bridge, and go back there once you’ve received the Ledge waypoint.

The Ledge:

You need to kill most of the creatures in this area, just don’t bother with the separated ones. If you returned to town and are hesitant about which direction to take, check the waypoint. They have stones that reveal the direction towards the Climb. It is recommended that you skip Kuduku.

The Climb:

Goatmen tend to be harder monsters to fight, and the casters are dangerous to melee players because of the Molten Shell. Battling the ranged creatures in this area is more efficient and less risky. The boss in this area represents a real threat, skip it if you feel vulnerable.

While it is not worth picking up Navali in a short competition, you might as well do it in a new league.

The Prison Level 1:

This rewards you with your level 8 support gem. It's also an opportunity to purchase an attribute amulet if you've picked up enough unidentified items with regard to currency. Checking with regard to 3 link equipment is advised.

The Prison Level 2:

Don't spend too much time fighting the monsters until you are sure to level upward while you're there. Between revive and the enfeeble curse, it can become very inefficient. In the warden's quarter, you can the actual blood trails on the ground to avoid a small lifeless end.

Brutus -- Use your totem or utility skills. If you aren't confident in your ability to manage him, buying a Large Life Flask should assist you to mitigate the amount of harm he can deal. Prioritising evasion gear as well as dual wielding also helps.

Once you've killed him you can log out to return to city. You are awarded the actual Prisoner's Gate waypoint automatically after killing Brutus.

Prisoner's Gate:

Two bosses populate this zone. Both should be skipped if possible. The Burning Menace can be hard to cope with and you can run away from the the Guardian of the Mound easily.

The Ship Graveyard:

Monsters are a bit thinning in this area. Picking up the actual waypoint is advised because completing the Marooned mariner is separated from the progression and you also might as well go back there once your personality is faster.

The Cavern of Wrath:

This is where you are rewarded with your level twelve skill gem (Firestorm or Lightning Trap for casters. Sunder for melee. ). Unless you've overfarmed, you won't be level 12 by the time you reach Merveil. It is possible to buy a sapphire ring or check the vendor again. Using your movement skills to cross gaps can help you save a lot of time. It is preferable to not go back to city until you’ve killed merveil, and log out once you’ve killed her to deal with anything vendor associated.

The Cavern of Anger:

Be aware of the actual exploding monsters, don't let them reach a person.

Merveil - Most of the damage she deals is cold therefore having some chilly resistance at this point will make the fight much easier. Use your totem or utility skills. Take note of her using her teleport when achieving specific amounts of life, and react rapidly to her barrage of Ice Spears. The second form should be easier to deal with as long as you don't stand in the geysers. If you go out of mana, using a portal to fill up your flasks is an option.

If you have not picked up your gem reward, you can log out after you've killed her to get this and take the opportunity to vendor your loot. You are awarded with the Southern Forest waypoint automatically on kill.

The Southern Forest:

Reaching level twelve and socketing your previously acquired ability gem will help cope with the density of monsters in this area. Don't spend too much time chasing after those fleeing monkeys!

The Riverways:

Follow the road. Use your movement skill to get over the bridges. Grab the actual waypoint. From the waypoint, you can see a cobblestone road indicating the place of the Wetlands. You don't have to go there however, but it's great to take note of for later.

The Western Forest:

Follow the road. Grab the actual waypoint. The greyed out part of the minimap/forest indicates where the Weaver's Chamber is. In the same way to how the Wetlands are indicated, the path to Alira is visible. From the the road there exists a torch that signifies where this path begins. It is not worth killing the blackguard soldiers for the skillpoint in a short competition. Be aware of the exploding monsters - don't let them reach a person. Once you’ve received the waypoint, return to town and progress to the other side of the Forest Encampment.

The Old Fields:

Follow the road, skip the actual boss, try to gather multiple packs of monkeys at once with regard to efficiency.

The Crossroads:

Grab the waypoint, then head left towards the Chamber of Sins.

The Slot provided of Sins Level 1:

The waypoint’s position is now showing the direction to follow along with to reach level 2 . You want to try to find this as soon as possible. Killing the wonder packs at the divisions is not really worth it for the longer term, unless you have been in dire need of experience.

The Slot provided of Sins Level 2:

Having some lightning resistance will help here. Fidelitas is a hard-hitting boss. Engage him with your totem or utility abilities that you have available. Eliminating the pack of monsters accompanying him first is safer. Having a Greater Life Flask at this point is advised. Once he is killed, make sure to pick up the actual Baleful Gem before logging out to return to town. In town you'll be rewarded with your selection of Herald Skill Gem and blood trend if you are Melee.

The Weaver's Chamber:

This area has rewarding monster density. At this stage if you don't have a Greater Life Flask you may start struggling with the incoming damage. The boss is a hard-hitter and has a pack of magic spiders enhancing his abilities through frenzy charges. Try to get him right down to 50% quickly to have some breathing room. Once killed, pick up Maligaro's Spike and then log out. You might be rewarded with level 18 support gemstones.

Kill The Bandits:

This is usually your next stop after killing The Weaver. You should be sufficiently geared at this point to allow them to not be too much trouble. Use the Crossroads' waypoint to reach Kraityn in The Broken Bridge. You can find Alira in the Western Forest. Make use of the Riverways’ waypoint to commence Oak in the Wetlands. Killing/helping will depend on your build and choices.

The Wetlands:

Embrace left for a bit to verify in case you don’t get the early waypoint, if it does not happen quickly you should go back towards the middle to find Oak (whose camp’s orientation lets you know where the exit is).

The Vaal Wrecks:

This area has good density even though snakes can become inefficient to kill because of the behaviour. Don't get strike by the Vaal Fallen. Their elemental-status-on-hit ability makes them very dangerous. This region has the hardest design in the game, it will take a person time to decipher this.

The Northern Forest:

This area is actually linear so you can basically run in one direction from the entrance towards the exit at the other end. Skip the actual devourers. The spiders and snakes should be easy to kill.

The Caverns:

Skip bears unless you have higher damage output. Additionally there is a boss to avoid in this area.

The Ancient Pyramid:

Be aware of the necessary damage in this area. Having at least a lightning resistance ring is advised for killing Vaal Oversoul. Getting familiar with his mechanics ought to make him easier to deal with. The stairs should be on the opposite side from where you started a level.

Once you’ve killed Vaal Oversoul and picked up loot, you can log out to avoid the 20 seconds long computer animation of the door opening: the waypoint to City of Sarn is granted upon kill. It’s also preferable to do your inventory management at this stage.

The City of Sarn:

Linear layout, kill on your way to Clarissa, prioritise the guard group once you’re there to save time on her behalf animation. Talk to her then head towards act 3 city.

Once in town, head straight for The Slums.

The Slums:

This isn’t a straightforward region, but it’s very Cheap Path Of Exile items unlikely to get lost in it. Avoiding Perpetus in this area is advised, although he’s not the actual threat he was previously.

The Crematorium:

Most of the monsters in the area offer fire damage whereas Piety’s damage is actually lightning-based. The size of Piety’s room should allow it to be easy to identify in case you walk near this. Picking up Tolman’s bracelet will reward you with your level 24 ability, which can be a 50% reservation aura. Generally, it’s better to wait until you are higher level since combined a good herald and a good aura will make mana management too difficult.

The Sewers:

Do not forget to pick up the actual waypoint, and be conscious of the high threat from the dischargers: try to keep a safe distance between them and you. While it is possible to pick up the actual busts for the ability reward as you go, the layout won’t always allow this.

The Marketplace:

The monster density is pretty poor, and statues aren’t easy to kill. The less time you spend in that area, the greater.

The Battlefront:

Head straight for the mission item, but skip the boss: he’s likely to be distracted through ribbons anyway and it is barely dropping any items. You can then go towards Docks, however use a portal scroll near the entry. Completing the solaris temples or wats first is optimal, especially as this is actually where you are likely to be somewhat underleveled.

The Solaris Temple:

Now an easy area with good density and easy monster types, kill while you go.

Once you get to the waypoint, return to town to use your town portal to pick up the quest product from the Docks.

The Docks:

If you are driving in level, you can spend some extra amount of time in this area to catch up.

The Ebony Barracks:

Killing general Gravicius will reward you with your level 28 gems, that is where ending this particular area guide feels appropriate. If you’ve made it this much, reading a small passage per area won’t really help you.
