Well honestly the game is a million times more fun when you're playing it through for the first time and have no idea what can kill you. I'd personally suggest going hardcore legacy, but failing that, legacy. Standard is the most basic version of the game and contains none of the newly added content. Most people I know only play standard to test out some endgame stuff every now and then.

I think its worth a restart to do hardcore since im still early into the game, right?

Standard. I sort of started regretting it as I played since I wasn't close to dying for the most part until I accidentally stood still looking at my items on top of those blade traps inside a crypt/dungeon type thing lol
Was just having a little read through the forums for it. Should be a really solid build for you to get started with, and I think only expensive item is going to be soul taker, but at this point in any of the leagues you can probably get that very cheap. Which league are you playing?
I definitely enjoy it, its just one of those games that I play for 1-3 hours at a time. Just been wondering since the gladiator block build i've been trying to get requires uniques and ill need to buy them eventually
So Poe.trade is split into 4 leagues: hardcore/standard, then rhe relative temporary leagues.
You do a search for what you want, how many sockets/links/pseudo resists etc, then whisper the person with the item and trade.
The currency itself, well, if you're only level 20 then chances are you're not going to have much to trade with, unless you've been lucky and gotten a chaos orb/exalted orb/orb of alchemy. They have ratios against each other, but it's league dependant, and time of league dependant.
For example, start of new hc league, chaos will act as a dollar, exalted is basically 20 bux, but can rise to 100 bill. It's quite complicated and if you enjoy the game I could give you a bit more of an elaborate tutorial for stuff I guess.

Hello. How does currency work on this game? I know there's poe.trade and stuff like that but I don't know how to go around actually purchasing things
