Act 4 is too hard.
Okay guys, im really frustrated.

I tried 2 character so far, first one is full crit char. I super fast died on act4 boss and couldn't beat it. He just 1 shot me with his ice skill. Impossible to beat.

So I said to myself, okay i guess i failed at skills, i dying too easy cuz no resistance at all.
Lets try again!

Then i started to play Full tank marauder whole week, guess what happened?

%75 Ice, Fire, Lighting
%20 Chaos
-40 crit reduced
60 hp regen
2080 HP

with 3 unique item (ambu's charge, araku tiki, belt of the deceiver)

I just died with 4 hit an a f*cking yellow monster on act 4.

What the f*ck is going on? ''Act 4'' suppost to be that hard?
Or am i missing something?

Im not planning to play pvp or something guys, just trying finish this game. Thats all.

Most bosses have attacks that will oneshot you. Just learn bossfight and avoid them. Also, decoy totem might help.

You don't have enough DPS. Having a lot of HP useless if you cant kill anyone. Try to find balance between defence and offence.

Basically, act 1-10 is a prologue, that allows you to test a potential your builds. After Act 10 the real fun begins.

maxed resists and 2k hp in act 4 is way over par imo (i usually have resists somewhere in the 30s and 1-1.2k hp at this point). that means you are dying to either having zero damage so things have all day to kill you, having no sustain through leech or life on hit, or just trying to face tank bad attacks and not using your flasks well.

yeah research some high damage survivability builds you can try your own but if you are new you are better off starting with someone elses build

Your build is probably trash. You should follow a guide or something before you actually understand the game's mechanics properly. I also created terrible builds at the start because I was too stubborn to follow guides, but atleast I never got stuck at the campaign.

No defence flasks, no mobility. Blind and stun can reduce the difficulty by a lot if they support an aoe to hit a lot of mobs (flame totem+ lmp comes to mind).
Don't think that numbers alone can save you, you need to use everything the game has to offer.

you always have to cap your resistance to 75% (or at least near that value)....than its no problem.

Beside that invest points in life not only in DMG.

General rule in POE: life & restances > damage ....bcs a dead character do 0 damage. ;)

Beside that look for at least 4 links....with 4 linked skills you melt trough all acts.....dead monsters cant do damage to you.

A 6 link "tabula rasa" would be BIS to 1 hit everything but take care of ur stats bcs Tabula has no life or res nodes.

And dont forget to use your life flasks.
