Skill tree help!

[xøx]

So i've just downloaded POE and i'm about to start playing, i've never played it before, but i've seen a few videos and live streams. What i need help with is the whole skill tree thing. to be honest i don't understand it, all i know is back when i played wow i always chose the wrong things, and ended up somewhat ruining my experience of the game. So, Any advice on what to do with my skill tree from the start would be much appreciated!

 

It's definitely quite a bit to take in all at once.

You could try just following a cookie cutter build until you get a grasp for the game and its mechanics. A great place to look for such builds is exilepro.

Thanks for the advice

I decided to go for a Marauder (not sure this is the best choice, but this is my preferred style).

I decided to follow this type of built for now:

Not sure if it's good or bad to be honest, i'm still pretty clueless. Hopefully, it'll turn out okay though

 

The start is pretty standard, but you're only showing half of the build, I'd need to see the rest and know what skills you'd be using to know if it's any good

Ohh I don't really know what to use, (gear & gems) but hopefully that won't make too much difference?

 

It does lol.

You can have the perfect build but if you're not using the right gear or skills it's useless.

Here is the full skill tree i've been following

I'm currently using Ground slam, Infernal blow and Heavy strike.

Any advice would be appreciated

 

It looks fairly well done, though I don't think you need all of the .4% regen nodes. I don't play a GS class though so it's hard to say. It could probably be optimized for sure though.
