What do now?

[humpers]

I just finished the campaign for the first time at level 73. What am I supposed to do next?

Continue the story line. After defeating Kitava you should have a quest to travel somewhere. Eventually it will lead you to your first map.

I did a map already. So is this minigame the end game? Is there any point to do the mining minigame or the heist one? Am I supposed to level up to 100 this way or something?

The epilogue will show you how to run maps, which is one of the possible endgame activities. Maps will drop higher tier maps, so you can run those higher tier maps to get even higher tier maps. There is a bit of lore/story in there, but it's far more sparse than in the campaign. Make sure to run maps with the bonus objective (so magic maps for a start), that'll unlock points for the atlas passive tree to focus on specific activities in maps (and to better sustain maps).

As you've just lost another 30% allres, make sure to get back to the maximum, run the 3rd lab if you haven't already.

You could also try Heist instead (contracts) or the going deeper in the Delve mine (azurite/sulphite). Heist you can get contracts from other people to sustain, delving requires sulphite which you get from maps, so it requires some mapping.

It all really depends what you want to do, but mapping fuels all the other "minigames" as you call them. They are league mechanics from previous leagues and you can choose to them or ignore them if you want.

Your primary goal for post- campaign is making your way through the mapping system progressing further through the epilogue. It's going to get tougher the farther you go.

Kill Uber bosses. Get 1-3% achievements. Brag about it online like Zizzaran does.

Depending what you really want to do, like defeat all Pinnacle Bosses, once you finish campaign there will be a quest that lead you to map and according your process there will be more quests leading you to bosses. If you're not a fun of boss killer, then you can focus to farm currency to build meta builds or fun builds in that league. But the first thing is mapping to t16 or at least t14

The real endgame is different for everyone, but if we stay close to the basics, then make your character as strong as possible, well if you want that, then you need 10-15+ mirror, depends on your build. If you make 10 div/hour, then you only need to farm 855 hours which is 85 day if you play daily 10 hours, but with ♥♥♥♥ gear and no poe experience you not going to farm 10div/hour, ofc you can make more money with crafting and magic find, but those 2 require more knowladge, especially crafting, crafting is equals PHD in real life and i'm not joking. Magic find need understanding the game, the mechanics (what map is best to farm, what is the most efficient way to do that, how can i maximize profit etc etc) and ofc you need a pretty good gear, HH (around 100-120 div) or MB(around 260-320 div) (these are the best belts in the game) and a very good character and very good mental, because mf is = dying a lot, sometimes you die 6 times in a map etc etc.
So what to do? Learn the game, the mechanics, the boss fights etc there are huge amount of mechanics in the game, heist, delve, legion, betrayel, alva temple, abyss, breach, etc etc
and huge amount of bosses, if you want to compare, then Diablo 4 hardest boss is equals to a POE normal map boss, and any poe real boss 1000x times harder than any normal map boss, especially in uber mod.

Nice farm, if new guy get more than 2 divines then it will be miracle. Im playing 15k hours and never drop more than 5. This league 3. Rest is gamble and waste time for trade with bots insead playing game.

I'd suggest you find a mechanic you like and focus on that. Delve is quite fun, and can be quite profitable, most I have seen recommend to push to 200 to 300 level areas if you're just looking for drops and currency.
Though there are caveats, you're build has to be durable enough for close quarters.. Because things spawn on top of you with most nodes, with little room. If you plan on exploring in the darkness, you're going to want to ensure you have strong regeneration as well.. I would not use a build for instance, that relies on leech for delve most times.
Then of course there is completing the Atlas, getting all the voidstones.
building currency will allow you also to try other characters and builds that most wouldn't recommend starting out due to the requirement of a specific item or other conditional.

This isn't a one and done game. This game is designed to be played forever and never running out of things to learn. It's more about the mechanics than the campaign really.

[cybercybercybercyber4]

in a nutshell:
reach around kirac mission tier 10, then make a new character because you noticed that you messed up and creating a new character is faster and more interesting than collecting those orbs of regret. At that point, kirac 10, you should have encountered all the little instant death sources that are waiting for you, so you know what bases to cover.

of course, looking up guides is for the weak, so dont do that.

You can fix your resist back to 75% but it won't matter much because there are some many other things that will one-shot you and you may not know why. Oh, You have armor as well, that won't help either because it only mitigates a portion of the damage as well. The boss can hit many times that mitigation and can one-shot you. Plus the monsters will debuff you and your defenses. They will steal you life and mana. They can regen their life faster then your damage if your damage is too low. If there is a defense in the game, you pretty much have to use it. If you're 73 start looking for better gear but the chances of finding anything worth while is pretty slim if you don't play A LOT.

This game was enjoyable to me but over the years, I've come to really hate this game on so many levels. It started when they sold out to a tencent and it just changed. They've made it less enjoyable for casual players who can't spend hours upon hours playing every week.
