Hello again, Steemit. :)

Maude, the Marauder, is back again. This time, he fights through the third Act of Path of Exile. He lives on in hardcore mode, nary a challenge to his health pool.

In this latest recap, there's a few harrowing scenarios that he encounters, and a bit of swearing. I don't want this man to no longer be a hardcore character. I want him to thrive in a risk-heavy environment.

He's doing that. Through expanding the <a href="https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAABAEAAAHnFCAaPhpVJScoKjH7NuhXDVqfXUlfP2a2Z5toZW6XeTl7jH7if-OCB4VSi0-XeZtqns2nMNIh2WHkUenV7dfvDvIv8kHynPOb974=?accountName=holoz0r&characterName=STEEMYMAUDE">skill tree</a> he has obtained more strength. Also, he is working toward enhancing his abilities with axes. 

There's been some work done on loot mechanics, with a new loot filter implemented via GitHub. I don't expect to play Tetris for much longer.

These most recent play sessions are leading a moment of conflict. I'll soon be back to the fateful location where the Witch met her demise.

I can only hope, that Friday, when I face this section, it won't happen to Maude as well. 

Thanks for reading and watching, as always. I'm very much looking forward to the competition run by @mattclarke and @ratticus - it should be a good time!
