[Acid Plays] Path of Exile - Hardcore Witch - Another day, another Hardcore Death

As I was looking for another class to try out in Hardcore mode I went for the witch, leveled it up to 15 before I decided to start recording the gameplay again. I didn't make it far until the next death occurred, ironically it was against normal monsters right after a difficult boss that almost got me. Oh well, that's the life of the hardcore newbie players, onto another class that's maybe a bit more tanky.

Recommendations appreciated on what class I should try next.

Ranger, death at level 25.
Witch, death at level 16.
