Cleaning up my room and house in prep, got my snacks ready. Poisonous concoction and then eventually full time heist. Only really have today to play hard but I wanna be set up so my free time for the next week or so can be spent getting them wonderful dopamine hits finding loot.
There is something very wrong with me
Yeah it's absurdly complex at this point. When I started I managed to get through the storyline of the game just abusing minions and some spell, but it's really best to find whatever builds are likely going to be meta to start with and copy someone else.
It doesn't help that you need a publicly maintained program on the side to reference for builds (Path of Building). Once you get to the endgame though you just spend time learning stuff until you get it. I still don't have a great grasp on crafting, myself, despite playing for years.
