>new league in a few hourshow are we feeling about 0.5?
>>739817219They added all this shit but couldnt more weaponsI know they want to save them for le class reveal but come on im sick of maces and staves
>no new campaign additions, only endgame shitei sleep
>>739817219its literally the same game
>>739817535This. I want to beat the game and have fun boss encounters, don't care about farming 100 testicles of maganiga to craft golden key to open portal to garagala of zanzibar to defeat uber demon for a chance to drop 1% upgrade. Literally don't give a fuck what endgame is in this game.
>>739817497You should try something else.>NO! I'M GOING TO LIMIT MYSELF TO TWO WEAPONS!They added new classes though, one of which is a totally new play sty->NO! I ONLY PLAY CERTAIN WEAPONS AND I GET MAD WHEN MORE AREN'T ADDED
>>739817712the whole point is that you dont have to grind the 100 dildo splinters first now
>>739817219>no new campaign additions>no new classes>no new weaponsIt looks fine but I'm really not very interested in some endgame grind slop. I'll play through the campaign and then quit most likely
>>739817219not even gonna play it
>>739817756>New playstyle>Literally just another whirling assault monk but with more bells!wooaaah
>>739817219I likely won't play until tomorrow because I don't want to jostle in a queue for hours only to play for 5 minutes before falling asleep (9PM update time).Looking forward to playing though, make no mistake.
>>739817219oh yeah? Shame I'm busy this weekend
>use any weapon on any classBiggest mistake this game made, it's so fucking cringe to see people play monk minion builds and other crap just to metaslave
>>739817925I am referring to Spirit Walker, which combined with the tree changes should make companions viable including taming literal bosses. Seems pretty interesting to experiment with all the different kids of beasts and bosses.
>>739817925so play something elseare you seriously trying to say you lack the mental faculty to come up with anything else you could build around?>>739817991>it's so cringe to be see two things that probably work well together and do it
>New endgame>Reset everyones progress??????Are they retarded?
>>739818324Nigga do you know how long the game has been out?How many fucking mace and staves build do you think exist in this game?>Noooo you just need to think outside the box they stick you in!
>>739818393That is literally how ARPG seasons/leagues work, dude. Ladder resets have been a thing since D2. That is the most enjoyable part of the game.If you want to play without resets just play standard. It won't have league content, but gets whatever base update the game gets and you can play the same character forever.
>>739818318I fell for the companion shit before with wolf pack tactician which was ultra memed, not this time, this time someone else can step on that grenade. If it turns out to actually be good I'll just make it my second char.
>>739817925slamming bells was fun af tho, felt so damn chunky. now you get 2x the slams from 2x combo on that new ma node and 3x more active bells for free, plus the auto spawning ones that give perpetual combo and charges and staggering buff.
>>739818590>Don't want to have your progress reset? Just play without 90% of the new content ;)So stupid.
>>739818318I wouldnt even call spiritwalker a playstyle, everything is automated.
>>739818324>it's so cringe to be see two things that probably work well together and do itYes that is the metaslave argument, I understand why people do it. But I find it cringe as it completely erodes any sense of class identity and it's all just based around which weapon works best with witch passives. It's lame and gay
>>739817219I don't like dying in these gamesIn Daiblo 2 I went a full leech concentrate build with a barbI'm assuming only warrior is able to be tanky
>>739818456okay man you can choose to have no fun and enter threads for games you dont like to tell everyone about how much you dont even want to try to have fun all you want
>>739819101>Y-YOU CANT JUST CRITICISE A GAME, YOU MUST HATE IT!Holy fucking redditorGo back if you want a safespace
>>739818747do not waste time arguing with poeniggers, they have made poe their entire raison d'être and will defend it to the death
>>739818880>I'm assuming only warrior is able to be tankyThe tankiest characters are all the intelligence ones because they can stack Energy Shield (Which is basically blue HP) to way higher values than strength characters can.
I'm ready to rollAnd then roll some moreAnd then roll to sprint to roll some more to sprint to roll some more
>>739819248So I can rummon a minion witch with a high ES then
>>739819317Witch is strong and so is sorceress. Minions just got massive buffs this patch, but so did Chronomancer and other caster stuff. ES itself got nerfed somewhat but it is still better than Life.
>last league was 6 months agoso how many weapons or acts did they finally add?
>>739818879talking a lot like a metaslave yourself. never tried rubbing two neurons together to come up with some stupid build idea and try to make it work? or you just afraid of having fun?>>739819224already starting your "i'm an epic jaded 4channer" routine? just dump the wojak folder already nogames nigger
>>739819228>>739818747I mean there really isn't anything to say. People like resets. They play because of them. If PoE was just standard I'd never touch it. Other ARPGs like Titan Quest and Grim Dawn are more focused on the campaign and releasing expansions where you play the same character with new content, so I recommend those games.
>>739817219what changed since 0.2 (when i quit)
>>739818880>I'm assuming only warrior is able to be tankynew martial artist monk looks very strong for stacking es and ev. gets busted gloves with more global defense, node that reduces es recharge on combo use, and easy access to endurance charges via resonance and culling hollow focus bells which you can combine with charge regulation. i think they buffed deflect too, which monk benefits from.
>>739819429>Random schizo babble to save faceStay salty
>>739819437obviouslybut let's not pretend poe's issues boil down to seasonal resets
>>7398193840 weapons0 acts7 currencies
>>739819626this is the new helldivers 2should have switched the devs out for asian ones instead of western ones that take vacation every other week
>>739819429>talking a lot like a metaslave yourselfWhat the fuck are you talking about retard, I don't care about meta or what is good, I care that people run around using druid shapeshifts as a non druid class. I care that necromancers aren't the ones using minions and instead you have monks and other classes do it because their passives simply synergise better due to how things are tuned. It's an immersion argument you sub 60 IQ monkey.
>>739817219I can't wait to finally use swords
>>739818456Everyone wants to be Tarkov these days.
>>739817219>septum piercing
>>739819609PoE has problems but its update cadence is one of the best things about it to me, even with the downsides it comes with.
>>739821554Literal sex!
>>739817219This league I look not for a challenge but for extremely overpowered build, what class should I go for experts?
>>739821554Yeah, not a fan but it would be acceptable if it was an extra item slot.
>>739822852pick your favorite meme streamer and follow his buildhttps://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/ice-shot-deadeye
So still no PoB update?
I'll play the free weekend, but that's it.
>>739825756https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding-PoE2/releases
>>739817219gonna try it on the free weekend. my first time ever playing path of exile.
Ahhhhhhhh I forgot about the league and haven't theorycrafted my own build! IT'S FUCKING OVERSOMEONE GIVE ME A MELEE BUILD THAT ISN'T MONK
>>739826558...Warrior?
>>739826558https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bG-tQQBNqmMi guess spear field is technically melee lol.
>>739817219who is she?
>>739828417atziri
>>739817535>no new campaign additions, only endgameReal shit. Best thing that GGG can do to the game is remove campaign entirely. I just want to grind maps and improve my janky builds. Campaign can go fuck itself.
>>739830518my desert wife mogs her
>>739818747The genre you are looking for is MMORPGs. Not ARPGs. Happy I could help.
>>739830887>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKG2DwK6wgwi want a slutty waifu pet. would actually get me to spend outside of tabs and shit, but it'll never happen in global for "reasons".
>>739817219Excited, got 2 of my friends to play with me for the weekend
>Start DL>Suddenly, my network decides to throttle my connection down to just 15 Mb/s (with highs of maybe 30)>Estimated time to completion: 5 hours>I go to work in 5 hoursBruhh
>>739817219nah i'm playing grim dawn, FoA in 2 months bros
Poop of Excrement 2
>>739831297ARPGs with MMORPG progress. So Nexon's new game. They are literally designing a new game for exactly what he is looking for. Closest thing to that is Lost Ark but its dead. Nexons new game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMqdSFFxL6U
>>739817219>BROOOOOOOO I CAN'T WAIT TO SPEND ANOTHER 4 HOURS RUNNING THROUGH THE SAME FUCKING BORING ASS CAMPAIGN I'VE DONE 50 TIMES ALREADY WITH THIS LEAGUE STARTER BUILD THAT SOMEONE MADE FOR ME THAT IS NOT FUN AT ALL TO PLAY BUT IT'S THE FASTEST, JUST SO I CAN GET TO THE """"""ENDGAME"""""" THAT CONSISTS OF A BUNCH OF UNFINISHED HALF-ASSED MECHANICS THAT I WILL IGNORE AND SPEND THE WHOLE TIME CRAFTING AND TRADING ON THE AUCTION HOUSE INSTEAD SO I CAN POST ON REDDIT HOW RICH I AM>AND THEN JUST DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN NEXT SEASONARPGs RULE
>>739836758It kills me that the gooks are the only ones that realized MMO-style progression is literally perfect for an ARPG framework, because they're too retarded to also not ruin it with P2W shit.
>>739838051poescatties do be like that>rush through campaign and maps first week>get everything the build needs as fast as possible>drop season 5 days in>"game is dead"
>>739838205to be fair, poe and poe 2 are p2w as well with stash tabs. anyone saying differently is coping. i think people just accept it because it's been that way from the very beginning like a decade ago and it's not severe p2w, but it's still p2w.
>>739838957more like buy to play. you buy the stash tabs once for 50$ and you "win" forever. in gook games, the more you spend, the more powerful you get
>>739822852based FROMchad
>>739838957It's a very malicious kind of p2w though where the devs create a problem by making a million different currencies that for some reason stack only to 5 or 10 per slot but you need 500 of each to do anything with them and then sell you the solution in the form of currency specific stash tabs that now magically allow you to put all those stacks into a single slot.
>Path of Excrement No thanks, I'll wait 2 months for Grim Dawn expac instead.
what skills does this game even have? when it first launched i tried to play ice shot pathfinder and couldnt make it past some boss, my character was level 41
>>739839250p2w to me means getting some kind of gameplay related advantage by paying money compared to someone who didn't. it's a sliding scale that goes from not bad to very bad. so on one end you got stash tabs which aren't too bad and on the other end, you got actual items and power locked behind p2w that can't be accessed any other way. regardless, stash tabs are p2w and you got what this guy was saying >>739839498 where ggg is adding a fuck ton of new runes and shit this league that's gonna "incentivize" people to get the augments tab.
Seems pretty Kino.Gonna try Vines Druin in SSF.
>>739840669Nexon will print money if they make this game not P2W. Absolutely print. But Koreans and non P2W is just not possible in this reality sadly. Even though some of the games they make are interesting. Chrono Odyssey is also starting to look awesome, but it will be P2W as well. I don't know why they keep making gook p2w games and send it to the west as westerners do not like P2W at all.
>>739841647>If nexon wasnt retarded then....Anon Nexon will always choose to be retardedThey cannot help it
What went wrong?
>>739817219Not that I'm really that bothered since I already got my money's worth but the early access situation around this game is so fucking stupid. It's an early access title on a seasonal release structutre instead of having regular patching. They're having an early access sale right now for a title that isn't out yet and will be free later after most of the playerbase has paid full price to test already. This is presumably the last league before full launch but they're still missing like a third of the classes so like either they're well along and holding shit they need to test as content or they're way behind and going to do the full launch incomplete.It's just so dumb to think about.
LET ME THE FUCK IIIIIIIIIIIIIIN
>>739842921stockholm died, you need to rejoin another, happened to me too :)

lol D4 mogged the shit out of itbut here's a complimentary bump
>>739847927play through the free weekend. if you like it, buy it. that $15 is $15 worth of in-game points that you're gonna have to buy anyway when it goes f2p for stash tabs.
aaand i quit the league after <2 hours againthe game is just fundamentally not fun to play from a raw gameplay perspectivei get so bored that my brain completely deactivates and i start feeling depressed
>>739836758>Nexon's new game>Nexon'sHAHAHAHAHHahahAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

https://natwarth.github.io/poe2-skilltree/changes between 0.4 and 0.5 tree.
>Feeling like shit as Monk all the way through Act 1, considering rerolling because Draven took nearly five full minutes of thwacking with M1 and it was never like this with Sorc, Witch, Warrior or Druid>Pick up Hollow Palm, damage instantly triples, suddenly Herald of Ice is clearing entire packs and bosses are dying in seconds to ice detonationAnd this is the nerfed version?
>>739856053>And this is the nerfed version?it got better early game due to faster base attack speed but the scaling off of ev got worse, so it's kinda shit late game.
>>739857065I suppose that's fair enough. It works perfectly for early game/poverty endgame, but if it was outright better than quarterstaff in all situations nobody would ever use them.
>>739819445Same here. Waiting to see is something really changes
>>739819445>>739858656>One new class (Druid)>A few new ascendancies>One new act (it's the best so far)>A couple of league mechanics for endgame (as expected)>Multiple revamps of endgame, the one they just released today is pretty much the final version and adds a lot of narrative and guidance to help people get into itYou're probably better off just waiting for 1.0 which will have the remaining two acts, new classes, a complete balance pass and so on.
I played a little PoE 2 when it first hit steam, but didn't really stick with it.Going to give it a good amount of time this time around. Was gonna last week but waited when I saw this update was coming.I want to try something that I don't usually go for, so what is a unique class to focus on?Not necessarily something "good" just something that is rather unique or fun to try out.I usually like fast/aggressive/close range type of characters, but I am open to something slower paced if it gives a unique gameplay feeling.
seeing how incredibly slow ggg's EA development has been it's really obvious they won't have 1.0 Feature Complete ready by their December deadline. they're only on 0.5 after a year and...a half? noway those lazy kiwi bums work harder and faster in the next 5 months than they've done in the past 15
>>739860117https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuDrHBZP2R8https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/grim-key-9npusx/builds/c3b0c6b6-6198-4a4c-bc4a-429ed103ce53monk got a new ascendancy, try something like that.
>>739819437>people likelow vibrational idiots who fall for FOMO
will it be fun just making up my own build as I play? no trading
>>739817219Let me know when the campaign is playable
>>739852121NOOOOO IT WAS SUPPOSED TO FLOP! DIABLO 4 WAS SUPPOSED TO WIN!
Blizsaars, don't look...
>>739863724if by fun you mean suffering, then yes
>>739820221You are wasting your time sadly.I've been complaining about that shit since release and it is simply beyond the comprehension of Poe retards.
>>739851164No he is right and you are simply retarded and probably autistic/brain damaged.You have my sympathies anon and I hope you overcome your mental problems.
>>739864821See you in a week path of poop guy.Also, nobody plays blizz games through steam.
>>739863724It will probably be more fun to flog yourself.I mean if you are gonna torture yourself, at least do it right.
>take a look at build sites to get a build idea>minions minions minions minions>spinner spinner spinnerJesus this is awful
>>739869753What kinda build you lookin' to make?
can't be assed when the campaign puts me to sleep, let us skip it already
Is deadeye Ice Shot easy to play?
>>739817219gameplay is still dogshit so no fuck off
>>739870831Why are you fucking retards always complaining about this? None of the big ARPGs allow this on league start. Why is it that it's only a problem when talking about PoE2 specifically.
>>739817219path of sneedile
>>739868814more like nobody plays them, period
>>739817219GGG managed to turn an ARPG into pure rollslopimpressive
>>7398542761.0 is confirmed to be 250gb
Played for three hours then went back to grim dawn and played that for three hours fuck FoA release date finally and its end of july just end it all
>>739872761Because PoE2 is the only one that's shameless enough to purposefully make a dogshit campaign and revel in the fact it can't be skipped.
bro wtf is she holding is that a mace or staff?
>>739874118Imagine trying to paint that as a bad thing when the alternative was PoE1 style where you are brainlessly lawnmowing enemies in an economic grinding simulator, clearing entire maps within second.I'd like to think it's better than 90% of the ARPG:s in the market
>>739874243Pretty sure its a wand. Maybe a bone wand? Doesn't really make any sense though because I'm pretty sure she uses melee during the campaign.. Is this fanart?
>>739874318maybe it's AI trying to discredit Jonatan
>>739874243did you post the wrong image because she's clearly holding a sword in that
>>739874450what's a sword
>>739830518i'd bend her over and press my face between her ass cheeks and then i would start slobbing her pussy and asshole with my fat moist tongue untill she trembles
sword? that's clearly a mace. warriors only wield maces.

>>739817219I think an extra pair of breasts would be an improvement on this character.And arms to match, obviously.
D4 won.
just reached act 4, they said they shortened some of the longer areas but didn't feel like it at all, also you have to backtrack for the rune league quest shit that happen to be completely hidden
>>739886772Endgame is too much grind for everything. Should be more streamlined.
Are all of these concept art are real design in game and not just coombaiting?
>>739817219I want to play as a cool knight with a sword. Why can’t I play as a cool knight with a sword in a fantasy RPG?
>>739817219I have it on PlayStation 5, but I haven't played for about a year at this point. I just downloaded it on my new PC and it's a very different experience, regular PlayStation 5 really isn't capable of running it to an adequate degree and it just runs like shit in the later stages of maps where you can barely see what's going on most of the time and it's like a slideshow in terms of framerate.I don't really know if I want to buy it again, I feel like a game that's eventually going to be free to play that I already dumped money into for stashes etc should give anyone who already bought it platform wide access.The game ate a shitload of my time and ultimately was quite unrewarding.
POE2 = BAD
>>739887164D4 = GOOD
>>739817219>playing sorc>trying to stay away while doing my flame wall+spark combo>monster just completely ignore my hits, rush in and start damaging meit's hard taking this game seriously when a single breeze is going to o knock you to the floor for 5 seconds while running but monsters won't even flinch with a fireball to the face
>>739887402its an arpg not an immersive sim what do you expectbut it's true their whole "slower, meaningful le combo combat" idea goes straight through the window when you start to encounter packs that zoomzoom straight in to your face in 0,1 seconds later in the game
>>739887770you don't need to be an immersive sim to do this shit right, I remember playing torchlight 1 and it didn't felt THIS bad playing a mage early on (I know I'll be nuking whole screens by late act 3). Will kinda wish this game would've been more like lost ark with the combat.
is this game still slow dogshit where it feels like you are walking through syrup the whole time?ngl diablo4 is a better poe2 than poe2
>>739888352theres sprint now but you get stunned for multiple seconds if you get hit while doing it
>>739886809The shortening was entirely from removing dead ends with no rewards. The maps are just as long if you know what you're doing.
Has anyone seen a decent werewolf build?
>>739889124>ice element cc>minionswerewolf is dead in the water, go with bear instead
>Game wants you to combo and set up skills>Enemies bumrush you so setting up feels like shit
The start of this season so far is pretty eh. The previous seasons felt more novel with the temple of atziri and the abyss stuff. Runes so far feel very tacked on.
>>739817219What's the most noob friendly class? This is my first time playing pretty much any arpg.
Hollow form sounded cool but its really boring to useThanks for baiting me ggg, see you when act 6 is out
>>739889441Yeah you and enemies don't really have mechanics. I was expecting more kinds of mechanic interaction if that was to be the point of making unique builds.
>>739889631ranger I think. Sorc with freezing shards + sparks for brainlessly clearing hordes.
>>739889784Ok will try those thanks.
>>739817219Isn't she suppose to be red skinned and have 4 arms?
>>739888660The animation is actually comical. It's legit like handsome squidward falling. Your big manly warrior guy that's killed demigods trips on a pebble for daring to go 10% faster while crackhead enemies swarm and auto-attack you to death. What a tonal disconnect of a concept.
>>739890032Either a design retcon or the 4-armed form is after she lores around with the lore and gets corrupted.
>>739889292Say it ain't so. I wanted to wolf out
>>739890032This is before she did the ritualThey real annoying part of the retcon is the entire reason the Vaal ritual failed and their race went extinct is that the PoE2 protagonist travelled back in time and interfered with it. It's like the Elderslayers of PoE1 but even worse.
>>739888660lmaoooo so can you even use it? other than backtracking an empty zone?
>>739890249bro, it was always going to be a disaster
Finally woke up today and am about to download this shit and play itHow big is it and how long does it take to download?
Is it true the Steam overlay affects the performance of the game? Would it be better to run it off Steam? How many people play on standalone vs playing on Steam?
>>739890249>and their race went extinctRegardless of if the Exile went back in time or not, Atziri communing killed them all.Even in PoE1, Atziri's map is in another world, sealed off from our own. Everything outside of her temple in that world was obliterated in much the same way.
>>739890792...Just turn off the Overlay.
>>739890850What's the point of playing on Steam then?
I just uninstalled, the game is still really boring and I don't want to do the campaign again and washed out after act 4.It's weird because I played PoE 1 for 10 years and did the campaign hundreds of times, especially when the game was only up to Dominus/Piety
>>739890910Modern PoE1 is slogsville from an endless stream of nerfs piling up on top of each other, weighing skills down while mobs move at insane speeds and do obscene damage.Even in acts, many skills perform so poorly that it just becomes miserable.
>>739891004You might be right, while I did play PoE since beta I have not really played like I used to in the last 2 years. I pack it in a day or two into the league but unlike PoE 2 I actually get to maps still.
>>739890897so you can be tracked on steamcharts and inflate the numbers>>739864821
>>739864821nobody plays D4 on Steam, retardbro. It wasn't even an option when D4 came out and you would have to buy it again.Meanwhile 95% of people are on Steam for Poop 2 and it lost 100k players in less than 24 hours as everyone realizes the 'biggest expansion ever' is just the same boring bullshit as alwaysYou lost, Jonatroon
>>739891221This is genuinely mentally retarded cultist behavior. I'm downloading the launcher instead.
>>739891116PoE1 was forced into a shitty mould (and then that idea was dropped, but the principles of the matter still apply) to prepare it for 2 campaigns 1 endgame years ago (the Expedition patch permanently fucked the game).And they kept shoving it in weird-ass directions because they could. Ruthless was designed to be a soft test for various aspect of PoE2 and was majority canned, but that didn't stop them.Then PoE2 comes out and it's Ruthless, but with new systems. Some good, many horrible.>>739891371Yeah, that's fine. Also, that's not cultist behavior, that's shitposting behavior. Nobody actually thinks like that.
>>739891371enjoy your errors you fucking retard HAHA
>>739891329>Meanwhile 95% of people are on SteamWrong thoughIt's more like 45%Most people play with the standalone patcher and launcher because it patches faster is more reliable and performs better.Tell me one reason why you play one Steam that has nothing to do with player counts or friends lists (which are also in game already).
>>739891428Haven't had an error since I started. Also yesterday during peak times of league launch, the standalone launcher downloaded the entire patch in less than 10 minutes while Steam got throttled into people waiting over 3 hours.Why are you so adamant on defending Steam for a game that not only doesn't need it but performs better without it?
>>739891419>that's shitposting behavior. Nobody actually thinks like that.Could have fooled me.
>>739891457>It's more like 45%MMMM MMMMM I love when they cope! >no GGG themselves are wrong waaaaah boo booo booo lmao
>>739891623The more convincing the act, the more likely you are to reply.It's all about attentionwhoring. If someone seems to be spewing shit, there's a very, very high chance they're just trying to get a (You).Anyway, back to leveling my Shaman.
This game is on sale, I thought it was free?They went away from the FtP model?
Uhhh, hopesisters...? How did we lose this badly?
>>739891656You're such a retarded faggot moron. It's an objective fact that the launcher is better. Are you also an idiot who thinks people play League or something off steam?Not every game must be played on Steam you disingenuous cultist.
>>739891457>Tell me one reason why you play one Steam1. Linux2. Not having 500 different launchers
>>739891723No, they're trying to milk every last god-forsaken penny out of people they can.Early Access is $30 ($15 if you buy now!!!), full release (December) is F2P.
>>739891754>argues against a bunch of shit he made up to make the strawman he is arguing against have sayso anyways back to what I actually said, most people do not play on the launcher as per GGG themselvesLOL!
>>739891823>>739891723Skill issueI got the game for free and never paid a penny
>>739891823>Early Access is $30 ($15 if you buy now!!!), full release (December) is F2P.What the fuck? How does this even makes sense?This is literally the meme about EA but true, you're paying for being QA for a free game. Do they give you something on PoE1, at least?
>>739891957Well I do because playing on Steam was making my fans go on overdrive and heated my laptop up to over 98 degrees. Playing on the launcher actually changed that so I never went back to Steam. It's just objectively better.
>>739892049If you buy the key, you get $30 worth of points too. And many people emphasize how pivotal stash tabs are in this game, which do (mostly) carry over to PoE1 as well.There's been numerous free cosmetics doled out for just finishing Act 1 the past few patches too.
Has anyone managed to redeem the arbiter of ash waypoint? My twitch account says I already claimed it but it's not appearing in my poe2 account in game.
>>739892170Or just get it for free if you don't suck at life
>>739892170Ohhh this actually changes my mind, you basically buying the coins when the game come out but get to play early. Ok.Wait, even if you buy for $15 now you get $30 worth of currency?
>>739892361Y-...No.You get $15 worth.I went and checked the Steam page and the current pack on-sale is base game (just base game, same as the future F2P release) and also a new "special" pack they released specifically for this sale, lmao.Instead of 300 points, this "special" pack has 150 points.That is actually fucking hilarious.
>>739817219should I buy it?t. played poe 1 for like an hour years ago
>>739892682It's F2P for the weekend, go try it out and decide for yourself.
>>739892610the 50% off means you get early access to poe 2 for cheaper but points wise, it's as if you were paying for 150 instead of 300.
>>739892610Haa, that's interesting indeed.Thank you for your effort and time, anon, I think I will get this now, either way.
Sex with my Huntress.
>>739892682alright how retarded would I be to just play and finish campaign in poe 1 to get the story and lore and then play poe 2?
>>739893486The 2 are inter-related and if you're a big lore-head, you'd be fine doing so. But overall.. meh.
>>739817219already made it to t16 maps and killed two of the new 'pinnacle' bosses, heres where we are at>not even 24 hours in>new league mechanic can be ignored till maps>multiple dc/crash/lag instances till now>three mf/exploit tactics fucked trade economy>new companion ascendancy is 50% bugged>most companion bosses have bugged supports>next to no balance changes means meta is mostly same as last updateall that and still missing four class starts, still missing so many ascendancies, campaign still incomplete, missing weapon types, 300+ currency items instead of just putting in a crafting bench, white mobs taking more then two actions to kill, many missing QoL ui/ux that is already in poe1, and game is still slow as fuck.ya im out till 1.0, if at all
>>739894085>still missing so many ascendanciesWe're missing 2.Like literally only 2, for classes that are in the game, that being Druid's 3rd and Ranger's 3rd (supposedly Arcane Archer).
>141gbJesus fucking ChristIs Druid fun at least?
>>739894732no
is the game not in beta? why are they doing seasons or whatever at this point? I usually don't buy early access games. what is the state of this game currently?
poop2 is (still) bad.
D4 won bigly
>>739894732bog standard ice wolf is probably the smoothest melee experience they made so far.
>>739894732Depends on what ya wanna do.Oracle is a good caster. Shaman can become almost unkillable AND can get almost AFK gameplay.
>>739894913exactly fucking right, but you are not thinking deep enough. its labeled as early access but changes are slow and done in large batches, the oppsite of what EA should be. but wait theres more, the real fucking question is why the fuck are MTX and bundles being pushed ONTOP of charging for entry in a god damn early access game. i miss the days where f&f alphas and closed betas were used to actually test and implement changes
>>739894406Are you retarded ? There will be 4 more classes with at least 3 ascendancies each plus the 2 we are already missing.
Doomsissys got so rapedIt's only lost 30k in 24 hoursUnprecedented numbersNumbers that poe1 will never, ever see
>>739895329The implication of a class is 3 sub-classes.The implication of "we're missing 4 classes and a bunch of sub-classes" is that we're missing 4 classes + their sub-classes and then a BUNCH MORE on top of that.Your syntax is shit, my dude.
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't half the reason we got a new league is for the new mechanic? Why does it fucking suck so much and giving shit for rewards all the way to and even in maps?
>>739817219Did they retcon the mayan/aztec themes out of the game because it was "culturally insensitive" or some shit?>also still early access>still not F2PI remember when they said this was gonna go F2P in a couple of months, whatever happened there?>>739895085Blizzshit is pozzed cancer thobeitever, blizzjeet.
>>739895925It's called a "poverty" League.League mechanics come in many flavors.But they fall into several basic categories:>BlastingThe League mechanic either has lots of monsters or lots of ways to empower mobs to shit out lots of loot>CraftingThe League mechanic has some big crafting system that enables new methods of making good gear. Technically Runes of Aldur is this, but the way it delivers those prizes is so abysmal and so in-line with everything else already in the game that it may as well not exist.>BubblegumThe mechanic is rewarding, but only for low-tier loot. Things like Transmutes and Exalts/Chaos/leveling Uniques, rather than Divines and other high-end rare things.>PovertyThe League mechanic is mediocre and doesn't offer anything interest that sets it apart from just doing Maps normally. It can still have interesting things and even good rewards, but due to some quirk (bad drop rates, how often the mechanic spawns, etc.), it's just not good overall.
>>739896226>It's called a "poverty" League.So its shit, got it, welp Im out till release then
>>739896021Blizjeets can actually program instant controller and keyboard swap in a 26 year old game ALTHOUGHBEIT while GGGeets can't in a brand new game in 2026 (still not released after 2 years of early access lol) Sorry!
>>739896347Chinks didn't give GGG enough shekels while blizzcucks have been slurping poohs tiny dong for two decades nonstop.

As a new player am I supposed to be already following build guides? I don't know if I can reset my tree to just fuck around.I saw a video ranking builds and this sorceress one looks cool https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/ds_lily/builds/varashta-djinn-sorceress-leveling-guideIs it a good build for noobs?
I liked rise of the abyssals league and mechanicsAll these other leagues seem to add too much bloat and not fun like the abyssals did
>>739897296>supposed to beYou're never supposed to be.PoE1 has become so horrifically bloated that everyone sees it as a must-have. In PoE2, it's not quite that bad yet and it's fun discovering shit even if it means a 50+ hour campaign.That being said, if you just wanna get to endgame and blast from there, yeah, that build's fine. Not super fleshed out, but you can look up another later.Disciple is extremely strong this League thanks to a number of coinciding changes.>I don't know if I can reset my tree to just fuck aroundAbout 1/3 of the way through Act 1, you get the ability to respec your Tree for Gold.You can vendor trash loot for Gold and spend that Gold resetting your tree if ya mess up.
>>739896916Why lie on the internet blizzjeet?
>>739895792Are you an esl or just brain damaged ?Your reading comprehension is shit just like your logic.Tell me what your native language is so I can translate it. Maybe you can understand what you are reading then. Because most certainly you can't read English.Also that is not an argument. You are a bad shill. Almost half the game is missing and you are arguing about bullshit.
>>739897720Why are EOP mixed-race israel-worshipping mutts so fixated on whether someone speaks more languages than them or not? Is it some sort of inferiority complex due to the fact their inbred parents chose to homeschool them because of the crippling fear of having their child murdered by a school shooter (somehow a weekly occurrence in the United States of Race Mixing)?
>>739898095Why are you replying to yourself?
>>739897048Too many modes to farm. Feels like a fucking gacha with 10 different dungeons for every other resource.
>>739898095Lol seems I hit a nerve. I am neither a goycattle american nor a subhuman Jew, pajeet or any other non human races that frequent this board and that you clearly belong to.You should not throw stones from glass houses.
Decided to try a metashitter leveling method for this League and wow.ED/C, Bonestorm/(any spell that does Lightning damage to proc Living Lightning) demolishes everything.
>>739898298Who are you trying to baiting my esl, retarded friend ?I have nothing to do with this subhuman mongrel who clearly got triggered.
>End of Act 4>First Mate betrays you>Gets killed by his chieftain because the only way to atone for treachery is death>Literally the very next room, the chieftain betrays you, steals an eldritch relic, and kills 90% of his tribe>"I know I've made some mistakes, spare me and make sure I atone properly"
>trying to baitingAnd so the guise is lifted.Now start talking about the game, quadruple retard.
>>739898720Because you're misunderstanding intent.One betrayed the Karui for purely selfish means to get ahead in life.The other betrayed an outsider (and he was never nice to us from the beginning, so it's not surprising) for the good of the Karui (with no understanding of what he's really doing).

Chinks have never made a good game.
>>739897263Would like to remind people when they sees grim yawn sissy to remember how small their clitty is
>>739897296never played sorc before but i know that ascendancy is extremely strong in general, especially for ssf.>https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/runesofaldurhcssftop leveled characters in hc ssf are almost all varashta bitches. you can just peek their skill setup and tree and follow something similar.
>>739898982>need to pay $50 for a costume>need>costumeuh huh

When you put on the Thaumaturge mtx armour on a girl char you get to see their nipples flash for a short moment. Fucking pay to win
>>739898982kek, retards harping on the cosmetics, conveniently ignoring the other, important complaintspaid shills or actual retards, who can tell these days?
>50%Should I buy it or wait until it goes free? At least i'll get 150 coins from buying it.
>>739898915I mean, I know why he forgives himself, I just find it funny how our character just goes along with it, especially since the only characters somewhat sympathetic to the Karui are the Sorceress and Warrior.
I mostly use the free to obtain challenge sets
>>739899579They wouldn't be jewish enough to paywall undressing your character fully nude, would they?
>>739899545Seriously why are they so expensive?
>>739899931qrd? I didn't know there were free sets and definitely wasn't expecting them to look like your pic, that looks sick and better than everything I saw in the shop.
>>739899959Holdover from the days of "small indie company pls understand."Because they got away with it then, they get away with it now.
>>739900004You complete challengers and get armour (usually sometimes get other things like wep and portals) and ye a lot of them do mog the paid stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eE8D-N7JDcY&t=1shere is this leagues one the first poe 2 challenge set
>>739900004Every League in PoE1, there is a set of 40 Challenges and if you complete 36 of them, you get a bunch of cosmetics (doled out at certain thresholds, but the last is always 36).Some of them are great, some of them are hideous. For a long time, many weren't armor sets. Here's the Keepers League one for example.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vDziZNrL2s
>>739900127the keepers one looks a lot better in poe 2
>>739900127So it's based on the league currently going on? Meaning I can't get the one in >>739899931 anymore?Also how hard are those "36 challenges"? Something a new player can do within reasonable time and commitment?
>>739900351Correct.That one's from Mercenaries League which was almost a year ago.36 is doable over a few months for a newish player if you stick to a decent build guide.You'll have to farm a lot of content this late in the League, cause prices of Challenge stuff rise exorbitantly, but it's doable.The grind is shitty, but there's been worse than current League.Here's the current League set for both PoE1 and 2 if you're interested.PoE1 (available for another 3 months): https://youtu.be/60p4WENX9igPoE2 (available for 6 months): https://youtu.be/eE8D-N7JDcY
>>739900351If you're a blitzer than knows exactly how to play and is willing to pay other people for challenge completion for challenges you can't do by tagging along with them, you can get it done in 40-50 hours. If you don't know what you're doing and want do do it by yourself, you're looking at several hundred hours for 36 challenges.
>>739900351>Something a new player can doIf you follow a guild and play trade sure>reasonable time and commitment?not really unless you pay some one in game currency to carry you
>>739900586>>739900614>>739900638That sounds a bit too brutal, I'll keep playing at my own pace since both sets don't look appealing to me at all... Thanks for the info frens.
The only talking armour in the game was a challenge set that most people don't have or know about. I got it
>>739899839>wait until it goes freeAt this rate it will never go F2P, same way RAM sticks will never get cheaper.
>>739817219More like Path of SEXile.
>>739900848We are pleased
>free weekend>ok ill give it a try>141gbIs it worth that much space?
>>739897361>not fun like the abyssals did
>>739901784>141gbWhy can't modern devs learn to optimize their fucking games for fuck sake, I bet they force you to download all the language packs like a bunch of retards.
>>739901784Personally I think so, I didn't play PoE1 (bought PoE2 at EA launch) and this already feels like my forever-game that I'll keep installed for the next decade or more. It's definitely not for everyone though.
>>739901880We no longer have the technology for optimisation and compression.
>>739901880There is only English audioI don't have any questions about why it's so big (there's just an absurd amount of assets), but they definitely need to optimise it because they still need to update the game on a regular basis.
Now that the dust has settled, good league? Haven't played since they added spears
>>739902913Give it at least a week. Most people haven't even got to the endgame yet, which makes up the bulk of the update.New monk ascendancy is just insane I guess. Way of Stonefist is just a ridiculous thing to have in the game.
>>739899839you're going to have to buy tabs regardless, whether you wait now or later when it goes f2p. there's also no difference points wise. it comes down to whether you like poe 2 or not.
>>739903640Can you buy enough tabs with the 150 points? How should you ideally spend them?
>>739904095>Can you buy enough tabs with the 150 points?nope
>>739904174You can buy a single fucking tab with it? How many tabs are "good enough"?
>>739904174Map tab isn't even that good in PoE2.>>739904238In PoE2, it's Currency, Frag, and Augment.Ya also gotta have 1 Merchant tab if you wanna reliably trade with other players.Prices on sale:>Currency, 60>Frag, 55>Augment, 40>Merchant, 30>Total: 185 ($18.50 USD)
>>739904491And a breakdown of why they're useful:>CurrencyProvides a single page for you to store all* your crafting currency.Has extra slots for currency not found there, which includes a wide variety of things. Can store up to 5k of each item (instead of like 10, 20, or 40 per-slot in a normal tab).*Lots of shit that is technically currency, but part of another tab, cause Jews lol.Currency is the main thing all players hoard and you'll get a lot of it, playing into maps without it is a hell of making alt characters.>FragSame general idea, but on a smaller scale. There's lot of Fragment items (map modifiers, fragment of endgame boss fights, Trials, etc. which you'll get quite a few of and having them in 1 tab is very convenient, not as good as the one in PoE1, but still very good. Also worth noting that if a Tab exists in both games, buying it in one grants it in both games.>Augment5 pages with dozens of Socketable currencies. Prior to this patch, I wouldn't really care much about it, but nowadays, there's so fucking many. And they aren't going away either.>MerchantIn this game, there are 4 ways to list and trade for items.>On the fucking forumSuper old-school, but nobody does it except the hilariously poor/money-grubby type people.>In Trade chatDon't, you will be ripped off.>Automatically in a Premium tabThe de-facto until a few patches ago, you price stuff, people message you to come buy it, and you manually sell it to them. This has rapidly fallen out of favor cause of the last method.>Automatically in a Merchant tab (or the Currency Exchange, but you get full access to that without any purchases)When you list something in a Merchant tab, it is listed on the trade index automatically and any player can come to your Hideout and buy it instantly with no further input on your part. The only catch is it costs some Gold (in-game currency, not tied to any real-world money).
>>739904238This is one of the more expensive tabs. You’ll need at least 300 coins to buy all the essential tabs.>>739904491You can play without maps tab but it’s sucks. The truth is that Poe is $60 game pretending to be f2p. You have to pay for all the tabs in order to enjoy the game.
>>739905035>You can play without maps tabIt's not that bad anymore since we have universal map tablets in PoE1.Once you hit T16s, you never go back down. And you don't need each specific Map, you just have generic T16s for everything.
>>739905154Maps themselves aren’t a problem, but they become a problem when combined with all the other rubbish you don’t have tabs for.Imagine trying to organise maps, oils, essences, catalysts and new expedition items across a few standard tabs. I love PoE, but its entire monetisation scheme is designed to annoy players until they pay
>>739817219I haven't played since launch, what's the state of the game? I think melee were fucked early on, is it better now?
>>739905881Maces are still bad.Quarterstaves are still good.Overall, things aren't good, but it could be way worse too.
>>739817219>Bought it a year ago, hey why not try the new league>150gbwhat the FUCK is wrong with this shit
>>739906131Normgroids ate oversized, unoptimized and uncompressed slop for years so now this is the result, also modern vidya devs are lazy retards.
150GB AAAAAAAAAHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIII THAT ALL ME MEMORY! I
>>739899042most po2 "players" are bots
>>739904095The only two tabs I'd say are mandatory are Currency (seriously, it is criminal that the game doesn't come with this by default, you can only hold 20 ex in a slot without one and you'll be shifting them around in the hundreds) and a Market tab (to participate in the economy, nobody buys from Premium tabs any more), which come to 90 points. I would spend the remainder on an Augment tab and hold the rest in case you want to add another thirty bucks and get a Quad, Map and Fragment tab or something. As an aside the tabs go on sale every three weeks like clockwork and you should NEVER buy them for full price or else what the fuck are you complaining about the cost for?
poop2? Bad.
>>739817219So, a day later, is it good?What's a good non-Lich (because i wanna do minions later) league starter anyway?
>>739910721uh oh pooie haha peepee hahaha poo poo pee pee haha
>>739910721homie really went and said poo lmao!
>>739910721>>739910817

ABSOLUTE CINEMA
>>739910942>Fire scaling>Not ColdIt is admittedly quite fun lookin'
>SSF werewolf>damage is ass>fighting geonor for literally 15 minutes>kills me with 1 pixel of healthbar remainingReally reinforces that damage output is the most important thing, by far- but by GOD the drops had been shit up to then.
>>739910996fire and lightning should have their own shatter-like mechaniccall it something like "explosion" for fire and "thunderstruck" for lightning
Wow for how long were you able to specter the pillar monkey? Or is that even a specter?Is it any good?
>>739910942>Game already has a problem with having dozens of interesting skills tied to particular uniques instead of being accessible to everyone>Devs decide to design and code a skill tied to a particular unique but only if you're ALSO using a particular ascension>And this isn't even the only one (we already know Thunderfist FoS gives a new skill called Gelid Palm)Absolute madmen. I gotta respect the hustle.
>>739912052It’s just a passive skill
>>739912032>Is it any good?It monkey slams bosses and pretty muck one shots them.
>>739912536mind you not all monkeys are equal you need a monkey with good mods. Kinda like pokemon
>>739889441Trying to make this game something more than it is at its core was always fucking retarded. It isn't Dark Souls, it was never going to play like Dark Souls and 90% of the key mechanics are completely different to Dark Souls.PoE is about farming infinite loot in the hopes of getting upgrades so you can farm infinite loot faster until the season resets and you start all over again.
>Runs into huge back>Gets stun raped What how could the be happening to me
>>739912052I hate how much they're tying skills to ascendencies.Like why do I have to play a w*man to use the boss companion thing?They literally just went "hm we want to add something actually fun, we better make it an ascendancy so we can market it it"
>pillar monkey>not pillar gorillar
They need to remove boss checkpoints
>>739913016Your wish is granted.Bosses have also been removed.
>>739912032you're basically creating custom spells with the enemy. They're permanent even if they die
>>739862742>spams one attack covering the whole screen shooting dozens of projectiles per second making everything explode, just lawnmowing through trash mobs and killing the boss within secondsthis whole genre is a joke
>>739913016>le dark souls of arpgs experiencemeanwhile build guide chads like me roll the bosses so hard, I don't even notice the checkpoints
I'm already playing a different game so be honest with me /v/... is this thing worth downloading during the free weekend?
>still can't skip the campaign >no new classes added>just more boring endgame grind slop
For me it's Blackflame Bloodmage and having a purple disco ballmake a slam skill that doesnt need talismans/maces already so i can make purple volcano work GGG reeeeeee
how is this different from 1 exactly?
>>739914129Dark Souls combat
>>739914018>>still can't skip the campaigneLol Get out. Its not for you. Get out. Leave
>>739914129a lot slower. Crafting is really basic so you need to pick up bases. Very ssf friendly. you have to press more then 1 button.
>>739914264good morning
>>739913984Don't ask 4chan ARPG fags about if you should do something or not. They are very very autistic. Like speed runner level autistic.
>>739914129Campaign is more cinematic, while people did find 1 button builds, the game is centered more around combo autism, esecially around using each other classes skills.You have two weapon sets, where a good chunk of your skill points can be swapped around letting you do abuse skills locked being two different weapon archetypes, or switching to a different ailment briefly thats maxed out in set 2 to then switch back.All the speedrunners take a druid talisman in set 2 so they can use the druid pounce which is best mobility in game for example
>>739913984If you're not sure, just wait for the December release. You really can't get a proper feel for the game in just two days
>>739914339No really. ARPG is not for you. You just don't get it and that fine. You are looking for a RPG or a MMORPG. No joke, you don't like ARPGs. Half the fun is the progress of the build. You want to skip that
>>739817219Having my Chimera absolutely wreck all the bosses in the campaign is the funniest shit I've experienced in the game since it launched. Can't wait to find an amulet/armor with some extra spirit so I can make him an extra big boy and laugh at him being larger than all the corridors.
>>739914232>>739914330>>739914461so it's actually more like an action game instead of a press 1 button to kill everything on screen?
>>739817219When is 1.0 release?
>>739914486and peace be upon you too
>>739914461Weapon sets have been around since Diablo 2, but no one ever actually used them.>>739914516You can use one-button builds, but most skills are designed to be used in different combos.
>>739817497Well you'd have basically no skills to use with then since all the skills are weapon specific in the piece of shit game. Fucking retarded decision.
>>739914516Early game yesYou can build it so win via action + combo autism, or you can be an extreme minmaxxer of damage and build to roomclear everything in a nanosecond
same shit same toilet
>>73981753590% of the zones were reworked. The campaign is far less cancer now.
>>739914556boring. Post your hand
>>739838051Outside of builds that literally can't, I've always levelled as my final build concept ever since PoE1 was in closed beta. Using a levelling build and swapping is just boring. That said, levelling as animate weapon when it first came out was a cancer I never want to do again.
So if I run down and pick up Giants Blood to go two-hander plus shield, the weapons themselves still count as two-handers for the purposes of bonuses and shit, i.e Overwhelm, right? Or do they go wonky and use one-handed? Or both or some shit?
what a fuckin clunky pile of shit this game is i swear ive seen mobile games looking like thatbut what do you expect if you have a dev who doesnt even play those games
>>739895925>Why does it fucking suck so much and giving shit for rewards all the way to and even in maps?What? It showers you in currency and new skills/supports. Are these posts just fucking bots or something?
>>739877037Huge schlong, no w8 that's the leg in the background
>>739817219Are there any viable unarmed witch builds yet or is the game still trash
>>739918078>unarmed witchNoAll unarmed stuff is literally at the other end of the tree.
>>739918078The Dark Souls of PoE...
>>739911660Fire has a support for that and they both also have harbinger.
>>739918078>PoE 2 isn't slow rollsl-
>>739912920Ascendancies are the only permanent specialization, I guess?
>>739912920>Like why do I have to play a w*man to use the boss companion thing?Because it's animals bosses
plantnigga here, just found this bad boy. eatin' well.
A dry crusty turdWasting away in the windThats POE2
>>739918078this is like watching the jorno play cup head then saying cup head is shit lol
