finishing up the interludes, my hollowed palm monk is still fun desuthanks for reading my blog
HOLD
poop of excrement 2the turd edict
quin is fucking pausing every time he gets hitabsolute state of HCkeks
PAUSE>PAUSEPAUSE>PAUSEPAUSE>PAUSEPAUSE>PAUSEPAUSE>PAUSE
>>537452714baldfatshortand uh...forgot the other thing
poe2 good
dp you guys find no runes too?cant for my life find iron runes, had to buy at 2c each...
>>537452783Chris would approve. He once said the game was designed amd balanced around the ability to alt +f4.
>curse>orb of storm>frotsbomb>flame wall>spark spark spark>pick up infusions>firestorm>repeat AM I PRESSING ENOUGH BUTTONS, JONATHAN?
KEK
>>537452851Having to log is unironically more ethical than pausing, at least logging takes you completely out of the fight and newer bosses reset mechanics if you do so, with pause you can just spam it frame by frame to perfectly dodge everything lmao.
doubters?
POOPY..... STINKY!!!!!!
>Health moves>Screams like a sissy>Spams pauseWho watches this faggot lmao.
>>537452758the more things change, the more they stay the same>>537452953at that point just play softcore
>>537452990Why even pretend to play HC if you're just going to do this the whole time?
>>537452884>Lightning Rod x3>Lightning Arrow until dead
Solution for campaign/maps gating.Atlas 'endgame' needs to be a mode independent of the campaign and available from the start or very nearabouts, but designed in a way where it is gated and unlocks portions/elements as you progress campaign. You also cannot gain XP in the atlas until you beat the campaign.This way you don't overlevel in the atlas and then jump back to act1 and stampede it at a broken level.Say you decide you want to start mapping in Act1. The gear you find is only act1 appropriate gear, and the maps and modifiers you can run are limited but not a thing you need to farm for unlock, you treat it more as a roguelike where it's just fully random and you drop in, change it where each map has some giga chest in it somewhere always and you get loot from it.The point is to have procedural, player curated fun available immediately. Make the maps require ingredients or keys that you unlock as you progress the campaign, and running maps in act1 is just like a fun thing you do to farm for some currency or items that are suitable for that level, the maps themselves very Act1 thematically. You unlock all the tilesets and bosses of maps by playing through the campaign. At any point you can take a palette cleanse from campaign and go do some randomised procedural fun content of your choosing and get mazed for a while and then step back into campaign and resume when you found some sick unique item that will enable your build at that level or something.The concept of "endgame" is whats killing this game series. That you need to complete all the campaign content to start engaging with your own content, this is abhorrent.
>>537452990you apparently, faggot
>>537453167retard
>>537453167>Atlas 'endgame' needs to be a mode independent of the campaign and available from the start or very nearaboutsJonathan would literally rather kill himself rather than do this.
>>537453098as opposed to instantly dying and NOT trying to pause?
>>537453167>You also cannot gain XP in the atlas until you beat the campaign.So why the fuck would anyone play it during campaign?
how the fuck did quin beat the monkey fight, the fight with the walls and the fight where the tower guys buff the boss?The monkey even has a oneshot that can kill you if you dont understand. Did he google it?
How the fuck is the bug still in the game where you're perma slowed with no debuff until you zone or relog? It's season 3 now
I have the highest lvl tactician in SSF, AMA
I'm leveling a warrior, I just started act 2I'm not having fun
>>537453394are you having fun
>>537453401why not
>>537453370>The monkey even has a oneshot that can kill you if you dont understandHe paused and reset so many times until he managed to kill him without him ever using it.
>>537453359If you have ever paused or logged out in HC you should have just played SC. You're just pretending.
>>537453394I was playing tactician cannons with explosive grenade earlier. Pretty sure I'm supposed to use gas grenades instead, but they tank my framerate.How's your clear? My biggest issue wasnt dps, it was the long-ass lead time for placing 3 totems every time i want to kill anything.Also, how's the defense?
>>537453401leap slam boneshatter is still very viabletogether with sprint it has a very nice flowleap slam > roll > sprint is actually fast leveling and if you keep your wep up to date normal mobs get killed by just the leap
Why should I keep using crossbows instead of switching to bows? I will get a quiver, won't have to pay the reload tax and get more AS. I haven't abandoned them yet just because I want to LARP a bit in white maps.
>>537453568uhuh 2 bad the game autopauses when it SHITS THE BED and freezes for 40 seconds at a time after having ran for 1 hour
>>537453568>t. cant make it to act 3 in hc even with abusing pause
>>537453370>The monkey even has a oneshotThats the funny thing, people say Warrior is shit, but the Yama oneshot doesn't actually oneshot a tanky Warrior. The priest boss rock labyrinth doesn't oneshot a tanky Warrior either.
>>537453656this happened to me twice today, but for like 5s and ~30sno idea why, but it just paused everything
why the fuck is this chick just randomly in my base now?
>>537453683>>537453656Imagine if SSF players could go trade for a build enabling item and then go back and keep playing SSF. There is no difference between this and a man who has log out pedaled or paused in a fight. Spiritually, your character died. You are merely too much of a coward to accept it.
lower enemy move speed, attack speed, and damage. increase base player move speed and attack speed. raise effectiveness of armor, evade, and energy shield. increase rare loot drop rate. buff every build to be as strong or stronger than lightning arrow dead eye. there you go, game fixed and everyone showers it with praise.
>>537453882>doesnt deny that he couldnt get to act 3 in hcI accept your concession.
>>537453801she wants you to rape her
>>537453741they changed the way the game handles lag. old way predictive you would just be desynced and lockstep would do that fast forward shit, now when you desync from the server for more than x milliseconds it automatically pauses the game until the lag fucks off.
Comfy.
>>537453801Placeholder for when they add ToTa.
>>537453801Because ToTa is going to be the 3rd Trial, didn't you pay attention to the dialogue in the Karui spirit area? That whole area is just a level before you access 3rd Trial.Lorewise you can't access Tota right now because Utula is stirring up shit.
>>537453967
>>537453882im in act 3 HC on spark sorc, youre not anywhere on the radar
>>537453994hm okay, just panicked bec i thought the boss would smash me during the lag
>>537453701Health/armor defense is shit, because what you consider "tanky" now in act 4 is basically as good as it gets. Maybe 2x tankier in maps.Meanwhile, people run 10k ES are significantly better than you at physical max hits. But then they're also way way better at elemental maxhits with no extra investment, and then chaos as well despite ES being nominally weak vs chaos. Unless you're standing still in a pile of 10 level 40 bug enemies for 3 seconds, red hp is comparatively worse than blue hp across the board.
This poop STINKS
>>537453456Not really. Mortar cannon cluster grenade is OP (you effectively bypass CD by spawning totems), but the framerates are awful with constant yanking. Like 20 fps with 13700k and RTX 4070.>>537453601Haha, just saw this. See above. Clear is great with cluster. You can effectively adjust clear vs. single target with proj speed and fuse duration.
>>537454160Yeah but people are asking how did Quin survive the Yama oneshot? By Warriors being relatively tanky early on.
the async trade is really nice and i look forward to coming to poe1but POO2 STILL BIG STINK
>>537454160even with the new prism guard? on paper it seems nice
I don't really care about the viability of a build.I just want one that won't take the game's performance.Which skills have the least visual clutter and frame crushing particle effects?
>>537454083
>act 4 final boss literally murders most of his tribe for us to even use it for the final fight in act 6>gets a slap on the wrist for the genocide and is treated like sasuke>all while we team up with Dorian who is even more fucked upwhats with jonatroon having you team up with fucked up murdurous psychos?
Can all arrows from a dualstring bow hit a single target? Wondering if I need to switch to a different bow for bosses
>>537454381yeah im biggus dickusthats me theyre talking about
>>537454408Thats just Karui being weird about their leaders. Kaom murdered all 500 of his warriors and he's still considered a hero in ToTa. Utula may be a cannibal but at least he didn't treat his own fellow cultists like shit.
>>537453697You HAVE to spend your currency attempting to craft your gear during the campaign, spend your gold gambling, if you literally have currency orbs in your stash you're fucking up.It's the entire reason they added res penalties each act instead of delaying it to the mid and end of the campaign, to force you to constantly upgrade your gear. You need to change your mindset from PoE 1 where you can use a 3 link wand from Act 1 through to maps.
>>537453167Simpler solution, move the campaign to its own mode and turn it into an actual training wheels tutorial for new players. Leagues meanwhile start in maps at lvl 1.
>>537454376stack +skills like a retard and use basic attacks
>>537454408We need to get Malachai on our side next/
>>537454160>Health/armor defense is shit, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svw72M44A_8&t=
>>537454408Surely this approachable fellow is trustworthy, just look at him, he's smiling!
>>537454908>mouth breather cant make a point and has to stall for 50 minutesi shant watch
> I shouldn’t be going into act 4 with stuff from act 1Go buy an upgrade from the merchants mr retard.
>playing huntress for the first time>first companion has volatile plants as a modifier>now im always on edge and nervousPerfect preparation for maps I guess
>>537454908>40 minutes to say that stupid things work at tons of investment
>>537454253you are right, no argument here. Warrior unironically feels pretty good in campaign once it gets rolling. beautiful animations too, compared to bow shooting.>>537454285Unless they stealth buffed the formula, yea still pretty awful with even 100% armor to ele. Keep in mind the armor/ele nodes are spread out pretty far, if you want close to 100 it's a huge investment. But let's say you have.. idk, 15k armor and 4k hp. Im sure you can get bigger numbers but it's a reasonable base for mapping.Now let's say you get hit by a pretty light elemental blast, does 4k damage so just 1k after your 75% res. With 15k armor applied to ele, you will now take 27% less damage, or 730 instead of 1000. With larger hits, like if you actually want to take pinnacle boss attacks, the numbers plummet to approximately nothing.Now let's say you run 10k ES with CI. Instead of being 30% tankier vs phys/ele, you're... 300%. And instead of having no chance in hell of ever surviving a pinnacle boss flashy ele attack, you can literally stand still in the middle of the arena and refuse to dodge one of their gigahits then shake it off.there's no semblance of balance. They did not even try.
>>537455003i would tell you to go to 6 mins in where he has the "what this character is about" section but lets be real you are an adhd zoomer who cant hold their attention for more than 3 seconds anyways and you were never going to watch
is monk man good?
>>537455110correcting myself, I said no chance vs a flashy ele attack. Armor is, of course, also worse vs phys than every other defense type.
Can you use the same support gem on multiple skills now?
>>537455181too sloweach bookmark is 1 hour long
I got scammed so fucking hardjesus christ>playing witchhunter nade merc>great clear, survability kinda sucks but only because i didnt bother with it >really wanna see if someone solved galvanic shards>come across this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGuNWO0y5qk&t>oh nice someone is actually dealing damage with it>spend tons of gold respecing into it>IT DEALS 0 DAMAGE>AND HEAR ME OUT, HE SUGGEST TO SHOCK BOSSES BY USING PLASMA BOLT (stay still for 2 seconds) WITH OVERCHARGE (shocks you back for same amount)I was about to finish campaign, but i literally cant kill Twins bosses with this shitLIKE HOLY FUCK I AM MADWHY THE FUCK I LISTENED TO RANDOM RUSSIAN SHITTER, those cunts are shit at everything except dota and counter strike,fuck me.
>>537454906Malachai is like Yawgmoth from MTG, nobody can actually explain why being compleated/nightmared is bad.
Map variety and layouts are so much better this patch.
So if I go deadeye I will have fun this league?
cold monk clear sucks ass until you get ice palm but damn it makes bosses so easy
>>537455419Yes, but if you want some variety you could later switch to Ice Shot Deadeye. It's pretty good too
>accidentally sprint for a micro second near the abyss>heavy stunned and swarmed to deathWhy did they tie sprint to the rollslop
are there no support gems that deal with enhancing empowered attacks like for infernal cry?
>>537455384>if someone solved galvanic shardsuhhh they solved it in 0.1
>>537454908>40 minute yap video with gameplay footage only in the campaignyeah im thinking this is based
>tfw missing 2 points
>>537455515nothing like conjoining the "ignore all damage" and "instantly die" button within 0.2 seconds of holding. truly jonathan has done it again
blood mage bleed spears
>>537455536Oh silly me, good thing they havent dramatically change anything about this skill in 030 like removing 5bolts from clip and increasing damage by 60%
Game is unplayable on melee on maps.
>>537455385Aside from Malachai causing the second Cataclysm and looking like Frollo from Disney's Notre Dame. Never liked the look comic books and the cards gave him, I always thought he would look like Sokrates because of the Tower entrance statue.
>>537454908see >>537455110For reference, the guy in your video has less than 10k armor. He has invested 23 points into armour at level 77.His max phys hit is now... 3000. And his max ele hit is 10k at 78% resist.u gotta remember what makes something "good" vs "bad" is not "Can this survive maps"It's "Can I accomplish similar results to other defenses, given a similar amount of investment?" And given a lich with 6 points in ES would be tankier than him, I'm gonna say no.
>>537422619>Faster movement = more funIf that's true why did they make you move slower in PoE2?
How should I build Stormweaver Spectres
>>537455306Nyes
>>537455820correcting myself again. His build, of course, will get oneshot by rares on red maps.
>>537455663I've seen this purple harlot in at least 5 different threads, I'm begging you to stop.
>>537453167This is the ultimate trvthnvke ARPGniggers have been too mazed to see for YEARS now. The idea that people unironically sit down every few months to play the exact same fucking campaign for the 100th time is insanity. Wanna raise a new character? Start running that campaign sissy. People, actual adult human beings, spend HOURS blitzing a campaign to level alts. Only to do it again next league!!! And the league after that!!!! Do you know how you engage with a new Fortnite season? Destiny 2? Hell ANY other live service slop? You boot the game up and press play. The ARPG that discovers this notion will be the true next evolution of the genre, akin to mankind developing agriculture and domesticating animals. Everyone will look around at trash like poo/poo2, Diablo, etc., and realize how goddamn lobotomized they were becoming playing the same shit every 4 months. It scares me deeply that some people out there are able to shut down their mental facilities just to play shit like this. I like the games too, but Jesus Christ have some shame. There isn’t a single game out there worth its salt that asks you to be a good boy and replay it for the thousandth time. Just brutal sweatshop factories, and people pull their bank accounts out like animals to piggy up for cosmetics.
>>537455384You lost the second you clicked on a video with an AI thumbnail.
>>537455110>Unless they stealth buffed the formula, yea still pretty awful with even 100% armor to ele. Keep in mind the armor/ele nodes are spread out pretty far, if you want close to 100 it's a huge investment.you can actually get 200% armor to ele pretty easily,
Do Path of Exile 2 bosses have too much hp or is 15 minutes(If you arent RMT'ing for OP items) a reasonable amount of time it should take to kill a boss in the first act of a game?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17at16Gccdc
Genuinely having more fun on Huntress than on my Witch
>>537454436Bros help...
>>537453167The reason people are hate the campaign is because it drops no loot. That's the actual reason. You are making near 0 div/h while doing the campaign and that's why people want to get it over with ASAP. Adding a shitty atlas mode that also gives you 0 div/h wouldn't do shit
>The average poogee'er is worse than Asmongold in 2025
>>537456071Define "pretty easily"Are you talking about blackbraid?
Please tell me I don't have to roll to play this game effectively, I got sick of that shit in dork souls, I don't want to play a necromancer that needs to roll around the dirt like a tard.
I was pretty excited when I see the gem that make you shoot projectile in circle, was thinking about using it with Permafrost Bolt. What a shit load of fuck that is cause it shoot 1(one) fragment in each direction with half the damage.Fuck you Jonathan
>>537456209Doesn't he actually play PoE a lot
>>537456247lol
>>537456090Buy an ad faggot
Controller is so comfy to me, its crazy to me how many people play with keyboard.
>>537456209retard
>>537455384saw a thumbnail making fun of these shitty videos but i cant find it
>>537456305he has 1 character he got to level 76 during .1 he doesnt play poe at all lol
>>537455110>armor only blocks 27% of damagelol wut
>>537456209What even is this? Hes getting hit by the lightning on purpose and not taking any damage?
>>537456209Anon its not skill to follow a build guide. Thorns is actually kinda busted with the new supports and headgear.
>>537456372i cant wait to use controller but i refuse until they allow hotswapping with mouse so i can do organizing and shit
>>537455861if you start with too much movement then you're closer to the maximum so you can't gain that much faster movementbut if you start with slow movement, then you can gain more faster movement so more fun
>>537456486looks like a crown of the pale king build
>>537456227goregirdle is an option
Which desecrated omen would I use to try to get +skill levels on my weapon? Is it worth it or is there too much useless shit in the pool with that mod type?
>>537456428yeah.... I really dont understand it. I think they just balanced while comparing 200 damage hits from act 3 mobs or smth, and then just assumed everything else would work out.
>>537456486Blocking now blocks all hits, only thing it doesn't block is AoE dot. So he's doing a Thorns build because he fell in love with massive shields in Elden Ring DLC.
>>537456209I watched Asmongold and decided to make a Warrior so i can afk beat bosses like him and my warrior takes like 5 skill casts to kill white mobs and i was getting 1 shot by gray spitter mob thingies.I deleted the warrior and went back on my deadeye.
>haven’t played since launch >rolled amazon cause new class i haven’t played yet >oh neat bleed everything and make them explode >do absolutely zero damage am i retarded or does this class suck
what are the best support gems for essence drain?
>>537456317I'm serious, I beat the first couple of bosses without doing it, but I can tell the game wants me to roll through all the shit it keeps throwing at me.
Erm, I thought that we're getting one merchant tab for free, why is my trade window empty
>>537456661>takes like 5 skill casts to kill white mobsJust basic attack them, jesus. The most bitch basic Warrior mob clear combo is Stun skill + Boneshatter.
How is Druid?
>>537456881
earnestposting, act 4 was really sweet and I loved the mini-adventures on each island
>>537456881really good, saved the league for me
>>537456881Currently tubbed
>>537456709You need to spec a lot of bleed magnitude node, which for some reason are mostly at the bottom of the passive tree
>>537456815Why would you think that?
>>537456881it's poggers
>>537456709Sorry you picked a class that was good last league so it has to suck in this one.
>>537456881marinating
>>537454035>>537454060>ToTa is going to be the 3rd TrialWHY? tota is literally one of the least fun mechanics, why the fuck are they trying to speed run this games death even faster next update?
>>537456063are you like actually retarded? arpgs have to be this way, if not you just login in patch day and delete the new boss in 2 seconds with your max level characters
When do I get a vendor in my hideout
How many deadeye got filtered by Azmadi
>>537456709Rake/Disengage/Spearfield is working fine for me
>>537453167>The concept of "endgame" is whats killing this game series.counter point: the endgame should be the campaign stuff similar to diablo 2.Different areas should have different types of challenges that different character builds can do more efficiently than others, so you can feel like your choices matter and you are one of the few guys who picked X class with Y spec so you can farm Z area better than everyone else and get these rare weapons and crafting mats more efficiently than anyone. as opposed to every class being judged by how well it can farm maps in general you will have characters that are just for bosses, just for large packs of monsters, just for certain types of monsters or areas. Hell you could even have characters who are just about sneaking/running by monsters avoiding attacks and environmental hazards and opening chests for a theif type playstyle.In order to limit power creep through the campaign the stat system should be more like D&D where characters attributes hover around 15-25 depending on what they specialize in. gear could be stat increases but rarely raw attributes. Level ups give perks or feats but rarely raw attributes. this would allow encounters to be more tightly designed around a baseline of health and damage coming from players while still allowing for progression and choices in character buildingbasically poe2 idea of bringing gameplay to poe2 could work but its not great with their stat system from poe1
>>537457087why can't we start at level 1 in maps? why are we still being forced through a diablo 2 campaign again and again after 25 years
wtf?! 3.0 didn't come with a new class or swords?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KyfcfndjdAlol the new essences + abyss crafting is completely broken
>>537457191what are your support gems
>>537456595https://www.craftofexile.com/?game=poe2
>>537456579wow thats actually fanastic. I havent seen that before. But still, same problem with bosses and chaos, and its still objectively worse than easier defenses at much higher investment.But you could shave almost half off 1000 damage ele hits. or like 25% if you just pick up prism guard, wear the belt, and hit 10k armor instead of going balls to the walls for 100% and 15k.point being, if we're trying to btfo jonathan and play armor on red maps I think it could work out. but you'll always be btfo by someone who just plays a real class with real defense.
>>537457082Your mistake is assuming it will be 1:1 with the PoE 1 league.They changed both Sanctum and Ultimatum.
>>537456937earnestposting, chloe was very sexy
>>537457082You think they made 20+ NPCs and hired individual voice actor for each just for shits and giggles? Hinekora was constantly spoiling PoE 2 lore during ToTa League as well and Kaom kept talking about "trial" all the time. It was obvious ToTa was going to be a trial.
that entire spiritual sequence in the afterlife was so fucking long and took fucking forever. Even if you speedrun it, theres like 7 spots where you are gated to beat a few waves of enemies to slow you down. Theres also a tough fight at the endact 4 wouldnt be too bad to replay if you could skip this but you have to fucking do this insanely long sequence just for max res and 2 skill points. I dont wanna do this quest every 4 fucking months what the fuck was jonatroon
Jonathan said they buff the armor, but he never say it will be good, got you again, anons
>>537453167just make it so you can actually progress stuff while campaigning. grim dawn does this by having reagents, reputation, multiple grades of MIs. diablo 2 does this by target farming good early game gear, and even farming some low, mid runes and pgems on the way to hell isn't bad, and there are a number of items that can be insanely good and obtained very early in the game.at some point, BFR went insane and decided that the campaign shouldn't drop shit making the whole experience a pointless slog waste of time. all they need to do is add in some target farming opportunities which would still be objectively worse than farming maps, but would still feel good for poorfags
>>537457213because then there's no real endgame, it's all a blurry slop, see d4 and 3
I'm not too far in but I'm enjoying the Witch herpes build (ED, Contagion, Swarm). This feels way nicer to play without the "only 1 support gem" rule.
>>537457585>act 4 wouldnt be too bad to replay if you could skip this but you have to fucking do this insanely long sequence just for max res and 2 skill points. I dont wanna do this quest every 4 fucking monthsIts not just for the res and skill points. Right behind Hinekora the two doorways take you to 3rd Trial that they haven't finished yet.
Explain. Group play? https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/abyss/character/Sergei_Kamen-7940/Requiem_Zvezd?i=0&search=class%3DTactician%252CWitchhunter
>>537457658It'll be funny when 0.4 rolls around and Jonathan decides to nerf support gems entirely depending on how commonly they are used across skills.
Act 4 is somehow longer than Act 3
Weekend is coming to an end...Been a fucking blast. Got through the acts way quicker than I expected. Act 4 was kino, best act yet for sure. Getting through the map tiers was also comfy, think I was one of the first people who found a "Heart of the Well", when I got mine there were only 3 listed on trade. Already managed to kill t2 Xesht and the Abyss pinnacle (which was cool). New crafting and async trading make gearing more fun than ever. Literally didn't buy a single piece of gear yet. I've been farming t15 since mid-afternoon today. Didn't get to tower stacking yet, but so far the mapping experience feels far better than before. All the new maps really make a difference and Abyss is GIGAKINO, probably one of my favorite league mechanics yet. Loot levels feel really good. I barely started stacking IIR, but I still already drop enough currency for solid crating. Gear drops feel mostly meaningless unless they are t5 or white however.Underwhelmed by the new gems and lack of new uniques. Overall strong 9/10 for me.
>>537457636>at some point, BFR went insane and decided that the campaign shouldn't drop shit making the whole experience a pointless slog waste of time.Back in PoE 1 Betrayal League everyone was farming Betrayal in campaign because the rewards were good enough and it was safer and faster. If you give too much good stuff too early in Campaign, you run the risk of everyone just farming the campaign instead of maps.
These new nodes seem good, but they're all the way in Warrior. Is this really just for totems, or will supports/minion builds in the future path all the way over here for these? Its 72% ally damage in total.
I wonder if they actually have the capability to make the zones smaller or if they're deep in the spaghetti
>>537457305For campaign I usedRake: Momentum/Brutality/Close CombatDisengage: Brutality/Whatever utility shit I needed at the timeSpearfield: Brutality/RageHerald of Blood: Bleed/PoisonBlood Hunt just had Magnified AreaSpent the entire campaign mashing Spearfield or Rake into Disengage for bosses and watching shit blow up
>>537457792Because its your first time doing it dummy.
>>537457757The support gem drops have already been nerfed. This is the first time I've had support gem slots empty for multiple Acts.
>>537457696yeah but at least you can skip that and do the desert trial since doing 3 floors isnt hard. You do not need your 3rd ascendancy immediatelymeanwhile that spirit sequence before is a never ending hallway with multiple sections that stops you and you HAVE TO DO THAT
Whats the point of having 1000 different skill gems and 100 different classes if everyones going to play Lightning arrow? Skill gems are doomed to fail from the start
>>537457757I think they'll keep as is. The "unique supports" was an experiment that just doesn't work imo. This system is much better especially if they're expecting us to use lots of abilities.
>>537457885they are more than capable of making the zones smaller, they just dont want too
>>537457836God, you reminded me how people farmed the quarry from acts for harvest crafts by resetting the zone.
If I'm new should I just play lightning arrow that everyone else is playing just so I can get used to the game and get to endgame?
Poo2 has got to be a big leadership failure. Not a single nigga over there seems to be on the same page. And not a single nigga wants map clearing to be combo skill bullshit. Just save that shit for bosses god damnit by Allah the infidels at GGG must be smited inshallah.
The secret tech with this game is still to play the campaign once on warrior (only fun class) HCSSF and then quit when you reach maps.
>>537457850It's good cause it compensate for using melee, which is not good
>>537458013>meanwhile that spirit sequence before is a never ending hallway with multiple sections that stops you and you HAVE TO DO THATThose stops took like 20 seconds tops and I was playing Warrior. Only thing that took weirdly long to kill instead of exploding immediatly on spawn was the Kaom room giant beast.
Poo 2
>>537458105Im more of a fun of the "beat act 1 and quit" tech myself.
>>537458105Witch is the most fun class thoughbeit
>>537457939nah its definitely longer. The bosses are much tougher with more health, the spiritual sequence takes an entire act 1 just to complete since its an infinite hallway and the prison has a part that slows your movement. Act 4 is much longer
>>537458061If you're new, watch the gem videos and do what they say for combos. Keep your resists above 0.
>>537456209>tfw your build comes online
>only 4 builds are playablei mean it's same in poo1 for uber bosses and 17s but the main difference is that the shitty builds at least get to yellow maps before falling off not in fucking act 2
>>537458280>shieldHe didn't beat it
>>537457885Theres some obvious areas they can just merge together just like they did in PoE 1 back in the day. Manor multiple levels and Dreadnaught being 2 parts instead of 1 being most obvious examples. Lot of Act 4 areas won't get shorter because most islands are 2 unique areas with unique tilesets.
>>537458280assmonshit is gonna have full blown melties in act 4. He will probably beat it but hes gonna cry on stream at least once and take a “break”
Am I fucking retarded? What can you use the desecrated omens on? I've tried literally every piece of equipment
>>537458280>3 days to beat act 2
>>537458201Personally, I like to call it quits after entering the Rust King's domain. Just don't have it in me to find all three rust piles anymore. Maybe next patch.
>>537458359>Shields as mechanic gets a major overhaul.>Don't test new shields.Are you retarded?
im playing blood witch and got the node that makes base crit chance for spells 15%...but its still saying less than 10% on them? am i misunderstanding something? i thought itd start at 15% and calculate bonuses from there. also when i "compare" on the node it shows big dmg increase in sparks, but that damage isnt shown in skill screen after taking passive?
>>537458491Thats normal people pacing
>>537458582Shields are soi
>>537458582Thorns is a dishonest mechanic in all games. It rewards having no skill.
>chaos trial>soul cores>waiting for animation>waiting......waiting........>ok its done>soul core is no longer on my back>start walking to another>but wait...... why am I taking so much dot damage?>oh, it didn't actually FUCKING place the core, despite the visual disappearing off my characterchaos trials need to be nerfed about 5x this game sucks so much man
>>537458485Nah, tanky warriors actually survive the Yama and priest boss oneshots. The boss that is going to kill him is the mermaid boss because the bubbles are the river witch bubbles and the whole boss fight is you playing merry-go-round with the boss in a donut shaped arena.
>>537458604Are you looking at the base skill gem screen? You need to look at advanced for some stupid reason.
>>537458614asmon has thousands of hours in poo 1, says how much of a gamer he is and neets all day. Thats cope
Been having pretty fun time with Gemling cause I'm no longer at crawl speed when shooting people
>>537458690The only real skills in an ARPG are mercantilism, psychopathy, autism and tedium tolerance.
>>537458419Manor and dreadnaught are the most fun and iconic levels of their respective acts though. Luv bein in them.Really they should just lop 40% off the jungles, underwater utzaal, and some of the islands in act 4.
>>537458786Asmon has thousands of hours in a lot of games, but he's absolutely dogshit at them all and probably worse than your average casual
>>537458491poop2 isn't as easy as poe1, takes time to get shit done.
>>537458786I'm sure he play thousands of hour in a day
>>537458742ok yeah, thats really dumb, almost 30% crit chance though, sweet.
>>537458858>Manor and dreadnaught are the most fun and iconic levels of their respective acts though. Luv bein in them.Yeah but theres no reason why they're split in 2 parts because both areas look the same. Same thing actually goes for the new Karui village.
>>537458705The cores are pretty trivial with sprint now.
Is poison considered "chaos damage"? Do the chaos nodes buff it?
>>537452565QUIT HAVING FUN
>>537458947Hopefully theyll change it in the future, I dont wanna look at Advanced for the actual important details.
>>537459001yes
>>537459001Affirmative
>>537459001NO actually, DoT magnitude is not buffed by any of your increased damage.Chaos will increase your base hit and thus the poison, but it wont turn around and buff the poison itself. You need support gems or something explicit like Poison Magnitude/Ailment Magnitude for that.
My mom said the real slim shady is a fake.
Path of Exile 2 is the only good video game
>>537459262but yes it's technically chaos.
>>537459343It's not a video game though, it's a projection of our own insecurities reflected back on us.
>>537459262I see. Thanks.
>we'll make it Dark Souls, but with dogshit character controls and inability to roll in intended directionsNot feeling this. Glad it's a free weekend, I'm gonna pass
You could beat the entire God of War Trilogy, an actually fun roll-slop series wherein you get guaranteed good loot, in the time it takes you to do one (1) singular solitary playthrough of PoE2's campaign...youtube.com/watch?v=IwzB716C9j0
>>537452694Bro how fucking long are the interludes? I beat the karui asshole and just want to do maps. But now I'm back to act 1 and beat the twins.
Why did they even make three interludes instead of just making act 5?
>>537459556Not very long thanks fully, as long as you don't get filtered by the sand nigger
Magnitude deez nuts you homo.>>537459548Bro god of war was always shit. Are you gay?
>>537459615what would they have for the winter league then?
>>537459662>filtered by sand niggerI thought that was a joke, surely nobody is actually struggling with that
>>537459615because it's not fucking done yet? you fucking retarded ape bug dumb faggot IDIOT
>>537459662who
>>537459773Well I'm not but, friends who start with me are all stuck at him (all deadeye btw)
Im not lying when I say this. The witch is one of if not the most perfect video game female to ever exist and i wanna breed her, marry her and start a family with her
>>537459923Witch doesn't shave
>>537459556>Bro how fucking long are the interludes?They're like 4-5 areas each. Make sure to stop by the Ferryman, he sells Greater Runes for cheap.
>>537459541retard
>>537459923anon you can't breed her she has a cock
>>537460002He already said she's the most perfect female
>>537460080futanari have both sets of genitals so they can, in fact, be bred
i'm 20 fucking item levels behind on my weapon
>>537453167it's "palate" you simpleton
>>537459776The time spent on these 3 interludes must have been about as much as an act
>>537460267The interludes are pretty much entirely reused assets, what the fuck are you on
>>537460135I didn't say she was a "futa" you fucking retardI said she has a COCK
>level my hulking retard>finally get t13 gems>fixes glasses>all according to kaikaku>witness the power of my 5 billion iq brain>summon 20 skeletons>freeze them with frost skeleton>the time has come >hit the elemental sunder button for casual 20x1000% damage>nothing happensAnd THAT jonathan is why you are a fucking faggot homo who should get his dick whipped 24/7/365 by mr wang and mr wong you disabled fucking mongo.Get euthanized you retarded fat chink bitch. You retarded LA wanker. Get yourself fucked by 1000 dicks.
>>537460357Pretty sure he meant the lenght....
how do i access the trade interface from inside the game? i see how to sell shit but not to buy
>see cute female>imagine cocksWhat causes this?
interludes are overtuned, i dont even want to see maps anymore
>>537460414futanaris have cocks. do not blame me for your own imprecision. and she is a futa :).
>>537459923implants btw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KoVONyY0VwI dunno this just seems more fun. No 10 minute boss fights, no sweating being chased by 500 white mobs, actual feeling of character power without having to be at the top .001% of the game...
>>537460570Japanese
>>537458231yeah this shit is fucking long
POOPY POOP 2!
Is there a way to see your minions stats?
Is there a way to make wind dancer freeze people bros?

I love when enemy shoot a big fuck you laser down the tiny ass corridor, very cool jonathan
Took my time and finished act 1 for all of the mtx, or I think I got all of it, then the game bugged out when I went to the stash in act 2, think I'm done.Not the worst game, but I do not prefer this to PoE1, and especially not Dark Souls/Elden Ring, the game it's trying to emulate.Perhaps when 1.0 rolls around, see ya frens.
>>537461139I'm pretty sure it's just shitposters. They used to use LE but that game bombed recently
>>537460909Melee works in Last Epoch.
>>537461374LE is doing fine
Tick tock, only a few hours left until the free weekend comes to an end. Hopesissies better get your diapers on.
>>537460975there's immense fun in not being mentally ill like poo2 tards

>None of the POE1 HC players are playing HC in POE2Uhhh
I feel bad for my friends who asked me to try again this league but this game still needs a lot more time in the oven. Someone DM me when its actually ready for launch.
>>537460917wc3 campaign is still the rts high water markshame they sloppified it

The campaign is so fucking bad bros I just wish I was playing Diablo 2 instead
>>537461996project diablo 2 mogs poe
>>537461876personally disagree but sc2 trilogy is the last good thing blizzard ever made
>>537461876Sc2 is brought down by some of the worst story blizzard has ever written, which is impressive given they also wrote every recent wow expansion

Who thought it was a good idea to make some rare abyss monster to teleport at you every 3 seconds and drop a pool of chaos degen that does massive damage?
What does Tier 2 mean on an item drop?
I see "skill issue" as a response to many difficulties surrounding these games, but which skill is it exactly I need to train?
Raxx is quitting at level 64 lol
If PoE is the Dark Souls of ARPGs......does that mean PoE2 is the Dark Souls 2 of ARPGs?
act 2 took me 13 hours
>"someone in the industery just messaged me, I'm not gonna say who">"Im clicking around on random streamers and it doesn't look like a single person is having fun"
So this just dropped as im playing a warriorShould I just stop everything and reroll as minions witch right now then? I think I'm almost at the end of act 1
Is LA the only skill that has damage this league?
anyone know if a 200$ beelink PC can play movies on the livingroom HDMI without screentears?

Sprint feels so much better on controller
>>537456531how does one make a thorns build?
>>537463407The entire game feels way better on a controller. ControllerCHADS run this game.

>>537463235Bro your Exile's Cloak?

>>537463780those are men
>>537463780>vtumors
I concede a lot of points to doomies but the quality of the campaign is not in contention, it's very good. It's only bad when viewed through the lens of having to do it dozens of times over the next couple of years
It takes like 3 times longer to do act 1-4 and the extra stuff than it did to do act 1-3 two times...
>>537463891The Act 3 zones need to be streamlined
So I ran out of flask charges with the concoction thingy against boss. Now what?
can they PLEASE fix interludes, no one is having any fun past level 60
Why does act 4 have so many bosses? Why are there so many one-shot mechanics?Is there anyone that actually likes this shit? Bosses is the worst part about the game.>play HCSSF>try a boss>"haha ZIKES you didn't know about this random one-shot mechanic? tough luck"
>>537463616What's that?
Is there even any hot women that play path of poop 1 and 2 regularly aside from that one poop 1 lore woman who disappeared?>inb4 lil-thats a man
>>537463891Redoing the campaign appeals to my autism. I think I did poe1 campaign over 20 times over the years.
>>537464169is why you have to play like the clown>ESC every other frame>ask yourself "am i going to die?">click respawn from checkpoint
>when you play poo2
>>537464169Bosses are actually the best part of the game
Where the FUCK is that fucking Mark gem that lets gems auto cast? I cant fucking find it anywhere. Its not in gems, its not in spirit gems, im not seeing it.
>>537463891im new, it needs to be presented better and try to make the player actually care about the lore. also the second half of act 3 is a fucking slog.
I can't beat Geonor
>>537464343Why does he wear the hood
ds_lily is a girl
>>537464490I melted him with my LA ranger
>>537463891even on a first playthrough the maps are too bigbut yeah it would be fine if it was the campaign to a standalone title and not a seasonal live-service game but here we are
>>537464490max literally beat it first try. Are you telling me you are worse than the chinger changer man?
>>537463780And GGG paid them millions to play their slop of a game
>>537452714this is what peak performance looks like
i fucking hate ascending in poe2 trial of the suck my dick
>>537463780the layout is horrific compared to poe1, and a huge majority of nodes are completely useless
>I see people praising act4 for the story/zones>I thought it was really uninteresting compared to all other acts so farAm I the only one? All you did was going to random islands and collecting stuff
>>537464127I love the campaign but I do agree with this. It's crazy how enormous the zones are.
>>537460426I'm still mad btw
>>537453994>they changed the way the game handles lag. >old way predictive you would just be desynced and lockstep would do that fast forward shit, now when you desync from the server for more than x milliseconds it automatically pauses the game until the lag fucks off.I've had it happen once and yeah it's pretty goodmuch better than the game happening sped up after the lag spike and you're suddenly dead
Does the first kill of a boss give extra loot? I like the game but lootfags have a point i think early game campaign stuff should drop more loot. The difference between finding a good weapon and having to use trash is huge
>>537464857Still preferable over the annoying life tax on poe1 tree.
>>537464863you're cringe
We'll be making a change to the Merchant Tab upgrade system where you will be able to upgrade Extra Stash Tab purchases that were converted to Premium Stash Tabs via an "Upgrade to Premium Stash Tab" purchase. We expect this to roll out sometime in the next week, pending testing and any issues that may arise. Thank you for your support and patience!
>>537453167This only works if you complete the campaign at like 80+
But seriously, what's going on with Johnathan's tub?
>>537462857>food analogy
>>537464490use frost resistance. Someone told me he did frost damage so i saved frost resist armor and rings and beat him first try. played through the game like 8 times and never died to him.
>>537465023life is life, its obviously desirable in all cases
I thought elemental expression would be poggers now.....but its still kinda assdoes more damage than arc though lol
>>537464490lol
The game might suck ass but god DAMN does it look good especially the Abyssal Depths shit looks amazing.

NICE 5% exp boon poe2tards
I want new Abyss in PoE1 next league. Get on it NOW.
>>537456063Campaign is the good part though. If you want to spam meaningless procedurally generated zones then maybe some indie roguelite trash is a better fit for you. "Endgame" in every single diablolike has always been trash. The good part is the journey. >>537457202>poe2 could work but its not great with their stat system from poe1I don't necessarily think you're right about how you'd want the stat system to be but you're right about PoE1 stat system not fitting PoE2. They need to redo the whole damn thing. Itemization is basically exactly the same as it was in PoE1. A good rare looks about the same in both games. It doesn't work for PoE2.

>>537466614>streamer who cant make his own builds without royally fucking up says that the solved game with hundreds of free build guides is bettershocking news
huh ok so the passive that gives a chance to generate aftershocks on attacks doesn't retain the brink property from the skill causing the aftershocks. i guess that makes sense, gotta refund this passive.
>>537459923This but unironically
surely they mistyped "more" damage?
Listening to quin play defence for a game he hates is always entertaining because his entire future's wrapped up in them not fucking up every league
Is elemental armament 2 a strict upgrade over elemental armament 1 or am I missing something obvious
>>537463420level one character to maps, farm some exalts, reroll thorns and buy top tier thorns rares for every new tier of thorns rolls on every slot that has themoh and buy the couple uniques, crown of the pale king and I think some boots and maybe something elset. did this in 0.2
>>537467157Probably yeah. It seems like 1-2 are just straight upgrades and then 3 sometimes has drawbacks. Or upgrades in some cases.
>>5374671572's are straight upgrades 3's are some gay shit.
I just realized we're going to have to deal with you retarded doomers for the next ten years
>>537467157for support gems 2 is an upgrade over 1. 3 is a side grade that only some builds will want.
>>537467382doomoids have failed at every aspect
>>537467382>2 player only just now looks up from his desk
>>537467382I said this ten years ago btw
>>537467382I would hope the game improves in the next 10 years. Although it seems like the opposite is more likely.
why is one of the abyss enemies just randomly invulnerable for the first 20 seconds of fighting them
>>537467382retard
>>537467382>thinks the game won't improve in 10 yearsInside every hopesister is a doomy that understands the situation
>>537466126Why do you gotta do it 3 times in a single league? Diablo 2 was fun every time you went through it. Even PoE1 campaign is fun when you approach it differently. Of course it's miserable when you think of it as a chore to get to maps. They should add a skip campaign option to PoE1 so folks like you can go back there and stop trying to ruin PoE2.
Archmage "viable" with the buffs? Im currently running around with comets as chronomacner and it works ok. But I always enjoy some good old fashioned mana stacking. Just dont want to do it if its like an F tier dogshit skill.

Are curses relevant before mapping?

>monday in nz>still no postsWhere's that fucking mongoloid who said it wasn't a long weekend for them
>>537468208I mean its still running, but a game isnt 'alive' just because the servers are on.
Why are they so obsessed with one-shot mechanics?
huh? since when??
>Heading into Act 4 with body armor I picked up in The Grelwood
Why are so many poe1 cucks saying that the game is so bad and poe1 is much better... while they are playing poe2?
>>537468301Its the vision
>Quinns retarded build works>other streamers are fucking crying and dying.I know this shit has issues, but lots of this big PoE1 streamers and "vets" are showing how much they fucking suck and cant adapt.
>>537468361Imagine posting here and not even watching the video hyping the update
i heard that new poe2 league is a dumpsterfire, did they seriously fuck up again?
Invoker or Chaluya as Hollow Palm Monk?
>>537468491>watching marketing hypeslop
>>537468301If they see someone tank a mechanic they feel they've failed as a designer rather than understand that someone wants to play the game that wayOr they just get off on people dying
>>537468441do you fucking not use your currency, or trade? The former being the big one if you dont trade.
>>537468626Trading gear is unethical
>>537468490>>Quinns retarded build works>takes him a minute to kill a rare on warrior
>>537463235It alone isn't enough to carry you on your minion journey. If you want to play a minion build look for items with +minion skill levels on them. Sceptres, hats and amulets. You need those added levels for minions to not feel like shit while leveling.
>>537468626I'm a SSFbtw
ok when does Hollow Palm stop kicking ass? im in tier 7 maps
>>537468301Stop getting hit.
>>537464989it should but I'm pretty sure they took away the boss kill bonuses they added in 0.1they also took away the general currency drop bonuses they added in 0.1never acknowledged it though
>>537468626Neglected to respond to the currency remark. I haven't found a base good enough to work from nor have I been checking the shop. Also currency has not been plentiful. I've been melting everything up to this point so I hope Act 4 doesn't punish me too bad
>>537467746people bitched about diablo 2 campaign all the time. particularly act 2 and 3. If you played online it was expected a lvl 90 character would open a portal to dural/mephisto and kill the boss for you so you could skip the whole act. then blizzard had to add a patch that forced you to do the quests but people meta gamed it to figure the absolute bear minimum to have done for them and still payed higher levels to rush them through it.
All these nodes with one-handed damage with sword shape are mocking me...
Are there any youtubers that focus on minion guides? I feel like the ingame descriptions kinda suck.
>>537467382>I just realized we're going to have to deal with you retarded doomers for the next ten yearsDoomchads have already been here for a decade. We had some absolutely fucking awful poe1 leagues we feasted on. Expedition was the ultimate doomchad victory. Nothing so far in poe2 is even close to as doomful as a few of the early-mid poe1 leagues
how much do you wanna bet that doomsissies' /played looks eerily similar?
>>537469298Expedition league was kino thoever
>>537468978People like bitching. They still play the game. Maggot Lair and early Act 3 were the worst parts of the D2 campaign so people would bitch about them. That doesn't make the campaign bad. Worst parts of a great thing doesn't mean thing bad or that the worst parts are even that bad. People just really like bitching. You see it here too.
Boon on map show wrong stats ? or i miss something ?
Did they nerf rune droprate?
>>537468780Do you have a nice guide for unarmed Monk?
>>537469463Sure doesn't seem like it when its autoskipped content for 99% of players
Are they gonna add genderswaps? I want to play a male Wizard.
>sprint>stopped by small rock>sprint>stucked by door edge>sprint>can't turn fast enough in cramp corridor
>>537469463The league was, the patch wasn't. I don't think we'll ever get something so bad half the player base leaves after the 1st day. League mechanic wise talisman or bestiary were worse. Some people might say synthesis league was bad but the memory map thing could've been good with some changes
Newbie to poe 2Why does my regular ass default attack do more damage than my skills?Isn't the point of skills in an arpg to deal damage? This seems pretty fucking counter intuitive to the genre
I still have no idea how the breach, expedition and all that kind of systems work and what the fuck I am suppose to do with all the currency that drops from them.
>>537469720The only thing I dislike about sprint is the massive endlag. They could honestly reduce it by half imo.
this is so unfun
>>537466971i grabbed that node and i'm deleting contentsounds like skill/build issue desu
>>537469935If they are intend to make you move between fight faster I feel like they could just do out of combat speed buff
>>537469935Faster to just always end your sprints with another roll. Also just start anothe roll when you start to clip on terrain or need to change direction
why are these numbers different
>>537470105GGG is literally incapable of buffing anything meaningfully
uh doom bros... i'm starting to have fun...
>>537469962Then leave doomtroon

How does this work? Does it just replace my "character" model with this skin?Why can't I preview it? Will armor and such show with it?Can I play a male character and use it?

>>537470963>kalandra isn't can- ACK!!!
Is there an easy way to get lower level Trial of Sekhemas items so I can farm up honor resist relics?
>>537469720works on my machine
>>537470928It replace your armor
>>537471074Nyes, you farm exalt and buy the relic
if you're still having problems with sprint after day 1 you are legit retarded
>>537471215ben died to sprinting so sprinting is bad
>>537471215rhoa mount doesn't have that problem
>>537459001increased chaos does not increase your poison damage unless the base hit is chaos. physical damage can poison as well, so it depends on what you're using to poison if increased chaos/physical will increase your poison damage.
>>537470105Since theres a fight every 3 fucking steps thatd be kinda dumb.
>>537470928It replaces your default model under your armor.It adds the tribal mud tattoo stuff to every character.
>>537470832>everything is her fault>league was supremely shit tooI piss in your lake bitch
>>537471094>>537471635So if I use it on a male character I become female?

I know this is autistic but hear me out. Are there any builds that do any of the following well:>Level entirely by spamming one magic AoE skill from ranged, preferably a circular or ground AoE spell>Can level almost entirely relying on totems for damage and it be efficient
>>537472098>spamming one AoE skill from rangedye->magicno
>>537472170Is the only option bows?
>remember melee sucking in 0.1, barely functional, barely able to reach let alone do maps, it's significantly slower and more sluggish while somehow having LESS survivability than any ranged build>other playstyles don't interest me so i dropped the game around tier 10>had no interest in 0.2>0.3 patch notes drop, friend shills and hypes it for me, check it out, wow they might actually be fixing shit>give it a try on launch>melee starts struggling and becoming gear dependant an hour into the game now>needs to have at minimum the highest level rare weapon available to you at all times to not make even fighting single white small enemies a slog>shield, armor, blocking etc barely functions again, why bother to invest in it when you're expected to rollslop>meanwhile ranged can still just casually walk away from enemies and spam with zero investment or risk of dying in most situations>melee again does pathetic dps, can't survive being hit for two seconds and is boring>uninstall
>>537472098>>Can level almost entirely relying on totems for damageNo maybe when they unbug the ancestral totems and buff mortar totems / lower the restriction on grenades with them Currently totems require you to either create a fissure for shockwave to do damage or require shots to supplement grenade damage
>>537472098Yeah, there are a few->totemsThere are none? I think? Idk.
>Sulphite mentioned in A4Delve soon?

So has any thorn shitter reach Azmadi, and can they survive getting clap in the face
>>537467891>tee hee just fixing my glasses bro
Whats the most braindead ways to speed through the campaign EXCEPT for LA?
>>537472241The fundamental problem with this shit fucking game is that it's designed for you to play it in one specific way per class, only as the developers intend for you to play it.You get very gimped very fast if you try to experiment or do anything fun with your build.You are EXPECTED to follow build guides.
>>537472340God I wish. I hecking love Delve. Also bring back Blight and Heist. Harvest can stay gone tho.
>>537472460my frost mage just nuked his teleporting ass
>>537470105Just add like 5-10% more movespeed baseline so that we move a bit faster by default and everything that increases it is a bit more effectiveSprint is nice for backtracking when you went the wrong way but rarely useful otherwise because of the danger if puts you in
>>537472465ED/C
>>537472518I don't know if you are being sarcastic but I would love all of these
>big chance skins mtx won't ever transfer to PoE1Now that is lame.
>>537472463>*places tongue in cheek*
>>537472561ED/C is high IQ build actually
>>537470105>>537472556Or they could just add movement skills and blinks back in. Who could have thought that removing them would make the game worse...
>Thoughts?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkfHvJ9_6dg
>>537472713>it's just jeff from rivalswhy is ggg unoriginal
>melee build fantasy>move slowly, do slow but big earth shaking hits, generally sacrifice dps but the gain should be massively increased survivability, you should be able to shrug off attacks that oneshot other builds if you fully invest into defenses>melee build reality>move slowly, do slow but small hits with little impact, you do low dps no matter what and are forced into taking damage to do damage, and you aren't even slightly tankier than any other builds, even if you use a shield and cap all defense stats and have thousands of hp you will be oneshot by random white enemies with no buffs running up to you and poking you instantly
>>537472450Fuck why can't they just add real character "skins" so you don't have to play as a Ni-
>>537472991You can type nigger here reddit-san
I never should have specced out of ED/C
Why are there like 2 millions energy shield node but so little armour
>play totem build>they don't scale with your gear at all>there are only two passive clusters that increase totem damage>they're strong and versatile initially but halfway through act 3 their damage starts dropping off significantly with zero options to make them useful againnow what
>>537473206Early access game please understand
Just did a massive PoE2
>>537473206Because there is literally 1 class on the left side of the tree, they haven't tested that area for shit.
>>537473284Reroll
>>537472465Twink gear. The right leveling setup lets you zoom through the game no problems, but for a league start the intentionally designed starter skills like la and ed/cont are your best bets.With gear and runes your options drastically open up.
>try melee>lose half hp before the skill finishes its animationnice game
>>537473284Totems scale off attack and melee nodes lil broThey just use their own weapon
>>537473364It's a shame. I'm not a faggot so I have no interest in playing any of the female classes which is like everything but the warrior and mercenary. Mercenary is mediocre.
>>537463235Is it possible to minion without being witch?
>>537473546No the game tells you to uninstall if you cut a gem into a minion gem

>>537473719I'm too straight to allow myself to be represented by a weak and frail femoid. I completely unironically assume that everyone that plays a female character is a homosexual man.

>>537472713This isn't time limited is it? Do pets ever go on sale like stashes do?
>>537473541I used to think this way when I was a teenager, then I saw how hot female characters were, and I took the stick out of my assMan up chud
>>537472098The closest you get is the new mortar cannon and you still wanna run explosive shot to detonate the grenades faster.As far as spells go they kinda suck. I tried twinking the shit out of Living Bomb in 0.1 max +spell level gear and got carried to full 8 points ascendancy in act 2 and it still didn't deal enough damage to comfortably clear while leveling. Now Living Bomb got changed so you can't even play it like that anymore. Tried the same with Bone Cage thinking you could turn it into a damage skill with shrinking it down but they coded it retarded and the spikes also get smaller not just the area so it's fucking inconsistent where it hits. Also does not do enough damage even if you max twink gear it. Ice Nova does half the damage of BC so that's a no go.One thing that MIGHT work is Orb of Storms with Living Lightning. I don't know if you can squeeze damage out of it but it would make for a smooth playstyle if you can.
If I pick the physical damage node, will the ability that covert physical dmg to elemental also benefit from it?
>>537473885they do go on sale but not as frequently as tabs. as for the time, if it's in the shop as a standalone mtx it will be there forever. if it's part of a mystry box it will be exclusive to the box until the league ends then it will move to the shop, if it's in a supporter pack or core pack then it will be gone when the league ends for the supporter pack or the year rolls over for the core pack.

>>537472471That is a problem with the limited skill pool and most of them sucking. This big rebalance they did for 0.3 is a joke.
Is Mercenary a red class or is it green cringe?
>>537472645If you expected to get PoE2 mtx in PoE1 you're retarded.
>>537474175No, on PoE 2 the bonus is exclusive to physical, on PoE 1 if you get physical nodes it benefits both physical and the convertion, thats what we call "double dipping".
i'm so frustrated with the state of minions i'm about to go unironically keep leveling my quarterstaff witchhow does jonathan fuck up gameplay that diablo 2 got right, 25 years ago?
>>537472706no you see adding movement skills poo1 style turns the game into poo1 style zoomzoom slopyou already have poo1 for that go play that if you want that experience
How are you supposed to play melee when every update they fill the screen with 100000 monsters that swarm you and oneshot you as soon as you come near?
>>537474427Whats piercing supposed to do against bosses?

Every fucking retard in this thread told me ed/cont was bad during all of initial early access release and it wouldn't be good even with a chaos ascendancy. I did arbiter with it on chunk, posted videos, and was still told it was bait. Now that the streamers who tell you idiots how to think have said it's good, we're at the stage of arguing if it's braindead? Hope you enjoy following guides and never experimenting with anything you absolute wastes of air.
>>537472241>>shield, armor, blocking etc barely functions againblocking is basically OP now. lmao. im convinced you retards dont play the game or something. we had a guy earlier saying it will be hard to get over 100% armor applies to elements.

>>537476209Anon the balance of the game massively shifts every league
>>537476315I accept your concession.

is warrior actually good now or is it just people in campaign jumping the gun without seeing the endgame performance?

>>537477265>free perma 10% PDR>free blockniggeryretard
>>537474839This. The order of actions is different. If I'm not mistaken conversion is like the first step that happens in the damage calculation pipeline in PoE2.
I have proof that Jonathan and his friends have been gang stalking me for years because I was the first to call him out on his lying. This is the biggest reason why the game doesn't get updates because he is bitter about it and wastes most of his time trying to hunt me down. Just the other day while I was out late at night on my weekly grocery trip I heard a car backfire and when I jerked around in surprise at the noise all I saw was a fat man laughing and holding up 2 fingers. I ran inside the store and told the security guard about it but he just ignored me and said if I didn't leave him alone they were going to ban me from the store and I can't let that happen because it's the only one in walking distance of my apartment.
>>537461139If you go in literally any thread on this board it will be full of retards calling the general's game shit and how great an adjacent game is. It's some kind of shitposting mental illness.
>>537477583What build? I can't tell any difference, crossbow still feels just as janky to me.
>>537474331If not a fresh start: In act 1 get the unique crossbow with +2 chain, twink your jewelry and gloves with flat damage and use basic shot to onetap packs.In act 2 the unique crossbow's damage starts to fall behind at which point you buy a rare and play this >>537474427

>>537474876What are you talking about? Minions feel great. You're no longer forced to use SRS to level. Druid summons sucked in D2 and Skelemancer was one of the slowest clearers and only considered good because of how easy it was to play.
I am NOT playing deadeye lightning>but everythnig else iss shit... autocasting marks thats cool...NO I WILL NOT
>>537478103Voice actors are not that highly paid or costly, also it's possible that the "Interludes" are a introduction to mapping in 1.0, like a way to introduce the mechanics early on, also usually they discard dialogues (i.e all heist lore discarded).

>>537476923"I think his worst attack is the instant dash. it's practically impossible to dodge in close combat and it's always a hit kill. If they removed that, the fight would be 100000% easier in melee.
>>537478197To be fair, 2 of the 3 didn't say they dislike it, they just...stopped playing.

Can't wait till they add a swordsman. Fuck druid, they should add that first
its genuinely sad to see all these mindbroken poe1 players who just refuse to adapt to playing a different game. the game's already a ton of fun and has so much more room to grow, and they flip the table over and scream about not having a 1 button build or the fucking wolves in act 1 running too fast. yeah we get it dude, this isnt poe 1. thats the entire fucking point
>>537478861a very very bad holy shit lol
>>537477528Retards at GGG locked it behind a quest in act 4.

Just finished a 5 hour sesh on PoE1 after uninstalling PoE2. Truly astounding just how much better of a game it is compared to this poopoo.
>>537479093>it's bow only just to make sure no one thought about casting any fucking spells this league
>>537478964its not a matter of le 1 button build I almost never used 1 button builds, its the fact 90% of the abilities are ass even if you combo shit. The other issue is, if you are suppose to be slower, clear slower, etc. the gear needs to drop at a higher rate. if it takes me 10 minutes to clear a map, and I get 1 usable base that ends up being shit.
>>>537479309>my homemade nades build is shit>go to poe ninja and select the first korean guy playing witchhunter i see>copy his tree/skills>cruise to level 75Really good damage/clear if you don't mind pressing 10 buttons
>>537479093Fucking fire the guy who works on bows
>>537479264Its more of a soulslike now
>>537479309
>>537479426>I just finished mashing 1 button for 5 hoursGrats.
>>537478747Crossbows are crossbows, except now everything around you automatically has voltaic mark on it
>>537464169>Why does act 4 have so many bosses?Act 4 serves to prepare you for the maps. The gameplay is more like the maps, the speed and density too. >play HCSSF>try a boss>"haha ZIKES you didn't know about this random one-shot mechanic? tough luck"Yeah you kind of need to know the entire game inside out to play HC, that's the point. You fucking retard.
>>537479524this is a self-report and a skill issue. there is direct evidence publicly available that contradicts everything you're implying
>>537479147CDs ON EVERY SORC SPELL
>>537464169why are you playing HC before knowing what can and cant kill you, you can't even do that in poe1
What happens when the free weekend ends?
>>537479916You kill yourself, hopefully.
>>537479093what the fuck>>537479258>still playing ctm
if you know what bosses do ahead of time then you're not really playing hardcore sorry
>>537478964what annoys me is when ggg tried to get poe 1 ready for the update everyone threw a bitch fit to the point of ggg saying fuck it and broke poe 2 off into its own game.then they added half a dozen mechanics to the basegame giving people exactly what they wanted, but that wasn't good enough.
what's the point?click to craft your own item?
>>537479426>he got filteredlmao
>>537479793Show me proof that 90% of skills are not complete ass.
>>537479630Which is an arpg.
>>537479729i press more buttons in poe1, they're just not all a part of an MMO rotation
>>537479983PoE2 being broken off into its own game was one of the few good decisions they've made in the last 5+ years. They looked at what PoE1 had become and realized they didn't want to make PoE2 into that. It's just that they keep slipping and taking ideas from PoE1 and trying to put them into PoE2 and it doesn't work. PoE1 is holding PoE2 back.
>loading MTX armor no longer shows witch tittiesbiggest nerf of the patch
>>537480060The point is having an item with 6 desecrated mods.
>>537480098just go look at the ladder and figure out what other people are doing, retard. is it mostly deadeye? yes. is it "complete ass" if you're over level 90 in the first weekend instead of whining on 4chan? no
poe mmo soon????
>>537479916THSD
sorry guys im not strong enough, my warrior sucks and i cant beat azmadi. he won i kneel.
>>537477470dont bother asking here. look at this guy>>537455110>Keep in mind the armor/ele nodes are spread out pretty far, if you want close to 100 it's a huge investment.meanwhile warriors get easy access to 60% armour applies to all elements beside their starting point. the "spread out" part is for specific elements, which you dont need to get every one because of pic related. Its a stat you find on gear now, it can go over 30% for each armor piece. You also have unique which help. This sort of gear here drops early in the campaign, not only is it obvious that some of these doom posters dont play the class they doompost about but its suspect if they have even played the game since the latest patch.And when you show them they are wrong about soemthing in campaign they move the goalposts and say it wont work in maps, or if it works its slower than another build. They developed a complex around doom posting.
>>537479630kill yourself soulsnigger
>>537479087>its not really an action role playing game anymore because it has action based game mechanics now.
is anyone actually playing more 1 build on this game?just the idea of completing the acts again makes me want to quit
How do I reroll my ascendancy?
>>537480504armour applies to ele is just weaker than max res, which is harder for warriors to get now. if it applies after resistance and/or the armour formula were buffed, it would be a different story. but they decided to implement half a buff that equals out to a nerf.
I'm in Act 4 after 20 hours and I still don't understand anything about the game. Running a Witch Hunter Merc on Galvanic Shards + Herald of Ice with the unique Ring that converts all Lightning dmg to Ice and it's going ok I guess. I really want to swap to a poison grenade build but it seems like a hassle.
GAME IS DEADEYE
>>537479093Are they outsourcing bow balancing cause what the fuck is up with the gap
Reminder there are 19 missing acendancies yet to add
>>537479093AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
There's just one question for all Poo2ers to ask themselves.Are you willing to cooperate with the Woodful Vision?Then here is your lightning arrow, sir.Or are you one of those uppity naggers, and you're going to go against the Vision?Then be prepared to feel its weight.
>>537480693>just the idea of completing the acts again makes me want to quitthen this game isn't for you
why are people going chaos fireball instead of just normal fireball?
>>537481336it looks cool
>>537479093>bows guaranteed +1 proj rune, +1 proj bow>spells 25% chance to cast 2 additional projectiles on top of the extra proj nodes on tree that end up being like 9 points
>>537481336Chaos res on monsters is lower in most cases
>>537481336conversion scaling with all the chaos nodes around witch, and chaos res is favorable. double dam to es mobs
>>537481336its new and one of the only things we saw before the patch so people planned on using it.
>>537474839That's not what double dipping is.
>>537479093Can you put 2 of these?So you get +2 from runes, +1 from explicit, +1 from suffix, +1 from deadeye ascendancy
>>537481650"Double dipping" is when you're fucking anon's mom and you go ass to mouth.
the reason so many people don't like the league is because they fell for the lightning arrow deadeye meme. that build feels like shit to play and isn't nearly as strong as retards claim. IF you get a really good bow it is really good, but not like the only good build in the season. I had a significantly easier time leveling hollow palm invoker than I did lightning arrow and it was a lot more fun.
>>537481890can't you get fuckin 4 of them? an exceptional bow with +1 socket that's been corrupted to have 4
>>537479753IS that good or bad I dont know crossbows
Just finished campaign on the free weekend.>Dodge rolling is kinda cool haha dodged that attack>Nevermind dodge rolling sucks, the entier fucking game is just spamming this button and every boss is insanely aggressive to the point this is your only mode of defenseSomeone beat them in the head and tell them not every games needs try and be a soulsborne clone>Theres a "revive your party member" mechanic if one of them dies>The timer resets if you take damage while reviving them>Bosses are so insanely aggressive its basically not possible to revive them outside of phase changes where they stop attacking briefly
also where do you see the current usage stats of classes
>Tune campaign so high that only a couple of dev approved builds can cruise through it stressless every season. Why?
>>537481998I skipped 0.2 kek so I don't know about the max amount of sockets right now. I don't know how>exceptional bow with +1 socketworks>just used trade search and found 2 bows with 4 socketsOh kek
>finally get blink so I can dodge shit>trying to run is super awkward and has a cooldown with blink
>>537482124if the boss aggression is your problem then that is literally a skill issue, they all have plenty of breaks to res teammates and fire off your combo rotation. desu the bosses are the only times im ever really using roll purposefully and not just spamming it because im surrounded by mobs.
>>537482124campaign is tutorial mode in terms of bossesmap abyss rares are the true bosses
>>537482026Point I think I'm making is that crossbow will generally be the same on whatever class you use them on, but yea on a deadeye there are some things that will help you with them maybe more so than the intended merc class
>>537482214retard
doomgods finna be feasting today
>>537482280It doesn't solve every boss being designed around shartroll.No amount of armor or padding is going to stop the funny hee hoo mechanic that's faster than your movement from 1 shotting you.This entire game is going to be cuckrolling from start to finish.
>look at endgame super geared LA deadeye gameplay>looks worse than a poe1 LA deadeye that just made it to white maps
Act 4 is high quality contentI'm not talking about endgame, haven't got there yet, but today, I played an awesome single player action rpg game, with rich lore, many Voice Acting, plot twists, dialog humor (playing Witch), nice visuals, rich details, high quality world design and I forgot I was playing a Path of Exile game. It looked just like a nice and top notch a single player rpg.I don't know if this is because I wasnt expecting such nice quality or what, but I really enjoyed it.In comparison, just Act 4 alone, with this amount of content, quality, details and lore, would easily be a $30 USD expansion in Blizzard hands.... And on GGG hands, it is just 1 of 6 acts.So I'm really looking forward for the next 2 acts and I can't wait to see what they will cook next.Congratulations for all GGG, it is a nice piece of work.
>>537482518path of exile 1 became a parody of itself, it isn't relevant any longer.
I want more classes and ascendancies to try diff stufff on. Thats the replayability for me, not some wisps to follow or some green zones added to every area
I called in sick to play poe today
>>5374825871 of 6what about the other 3 that he already did
What do you do if you run out of maps and money to buy new ones?Not saying I did that, just curious
i called in sick after doing a big poe today
>>537481336chaos damage just better than fire
nice game you got there, retards
>>537482587this looks reddit but I can't prove it...
>>537482762Bud you are eternally seething over 1 and it's looking really weird considering you could be playing 2 right now
>>537457087If this is your conclusion, then maybe it was simply never worth it.
>>537482817you’re truly pathetic
>>537482587retard
>>537483259sorry...
>>537482817Based
Proj and insane clear has always been popular on league start on PoE. I played proj well before ascendancies even came out in PoE1... LA, ice shot, TS have always been ridiculous. It's just a POE thing.Strong league starts are always what everyone flocks to if they're playing hard early and want to collect an advantage. It's to collect currency with minimal investment to clear quickly in order to invest in something fun you want to play later. A day 1 headhunter is insanely cheap so that's what I bought last night.. but doesn't mean you'll never get a headhunter if you don't hop on the gravy train early.Yes, some classes need work, some classes need figuring out, some things literally don't work but don't get upset and stop trying to figure something out because everyone flocked to a meta and you think you're missing out.In 0.1 I played off-meta to carry sekhema, 0.2 again, and 0.3 we have tactician and weird warrior in the squad. If you let FOMO dictate how you have fun on the game, which I constantly see due to the content creator cycle, you will kill your ability to find the fun. Living bomb was fun in 0.1, blood mage was fun in 0.1/2... I loved my earthshatter titan in 0.1 which was "unplayable" as I was carrying everyone's 4-floor sekhema and rolling in divs.The campaign is awesome, yet everyone wants to skip it because they are feeling the FOMO of not mapping early. Even though our squad rushed the campaign areas we've done before, we did the new area very slow, clicked every readable, listened to every voice line.. And we still have day 1 chase items and are mapping. This campaign is amazing. Why does an ARPG not need a campaign?This thread wants PoE2 to be Torchlight Infinite, and although that game has its merits and can be fun, PoE2 does something no other ARPG, even PoE1, does and I love it.Focus on the fun, focus on figuring out the characters, and if something literally doesn't work that's what reports are for.
>>537483167i am playing 2 right now and i have 40/40. not that that changes the veracity of my statement.
good luck doomsissies
>>537482817Good.
um yeah just go back
>>537483436bros literally just trying to squash the competition and he's a filthy fucking groupplayer too
>>537481969>>537482815Right, I just wanna play new stuff.Currently running a str stacking corrupted cry warbringer. i will never have enough dps to kill pinnacle bosses in a reasonable amount of time, yet I'm still having fun.
>1 MILLION IS GUUARANTEED ONCE THE GAME IS FRE -AAAAACCCK!!!lmao, the free weekend isn't even over and it already almost dipped under 100k in 2 days. kekaroo
>>537483967Wow...so how's poo1, which is eternally free, doing?
>>537483967A reminder that the free weekend is STILL going24 hours?<99k
>>537484359
>>537483967Jesus, poor hope sissies got their dreams crushed this early in the game's life. Bet 1.0 will only get half a million across all platforms plus China on release at best, and then never again.
I was expecting Hollow Palm to be shit tier but apparently people are having fun with it, when does it really fall off?
>>537484604yeah i wonder how the chinks made out with their new server.
>>537484667It is literally always having the issue of being decent or shit due to the way it scales only when you level up kek go watch mathil's video
They should make skill gems buyable for goldLike support gems 1k for level 1 5k for level 5. Just make them level with you. Like at level 60 you can buy tier 5s. Do the same with skill gems, just make buyable cap at 16 or something at level 80.
this kinda sucks? i'm 43 and not sure when to upgrade my bow or how even
>snakepit is 14dwell fuck me i guess
>>537485020I dont really like poo1, but I do miss gem exp.
>new assetsDELVE IS REAL!
>oh cool abyssal depths>instantly one tapped off screen by giga laser mobs>oops haha one life only :^)What is this retard's obsession with one life only nonsense?
what to expect
>>537485398Small rooms with constant on-death effects, degens and AoE attacks.
>>537485398
>>537485386>>537485398perfect
>he didn't even get to movewho says minions are bad
>>537485398>We heard you didn't quite like on death effects, body blocking, fight corridors and the bunch of of mobs gang banging you in melee and range? Here all of this as the main league mechanic.
>>537485398i literally just skipped my last one, its not worth it
>>537485398rape
wow this interlude makes me wanna blow my fucking brains out are they serious with these mobs
>Strength's only defense is armor>Enemy breaks your armor>Now take 900% more damage>Die instantlyWho thought giving enemies armor break was a good ideaWhere's the debuff that sets your ES or evasion to 0
worst league for mepicked a wrong buildshould have played deadeye or monk, but can't start a new char now, because campaign took me 14 hrsplayed 42 hours total, have barely slept at alllvl 82, can barely do blue t14failed a unique boss in abyss twice, second time it was 1k hp left and he killed medestroyed my old keyboard, wanted to smash the monitor with it too for a moment2 divines and 3 exalted orbsno one buys anything from meit's like i am blacklistedi feel absolutely fucking terribleeven 0.2 wasn't so fucking bad
that was complete utter dogshitevery rare in that place had temporal on it and did a million fucking damage I just left after running into 3 of these fuckers back to back temporal bubbles
>>537486164They should cut the price of respeccing by like 1/4th.
>>537486326They should make the first full respec of a day frre.
>>537486164uhhh wow have you considered sleeping? try sleeping maybe.
>>537486164>lvl 82>barely slept>played all week endno wonder you feel like shitgo fucking sleep, go outside and touch some grass.
What level / life should I be around when getting my 2nd and 3rd ascendancy?
>>537486318holy blur filter
>all the fissure builds jerking off bonesplitter>drop it for forge hammer for fun>it blasts out massive spirals with totem nonstop>fat burst just like bonesplitteri dont get it why are the "pros" seeing bonesplitter as better
are SSF and nonSSF in the same globals? LE got my brain all fucky
>>537486318run past them to the end. you have to kill the rare guarding the chests though
I don't know where to put my shit...
>need to buy a critical piece gear>can't use trade cause no Ange yet>can't progress without it>the one i need is on async>can't contact the seller in any wayfuck this retard system
cringe
>>537485963GGG hates melee and armor
Having a blasst with Galvanic Shards Deaedeye, got a 500 PDPS crossbow now I can push to red T16 easily.
>>537485963>evasionthat's called literally every telegraphed attack>ESActually surprised at how little chaos damage there is, something like chaos innoc feels borderline worthless right now
>>537486760why are you trying to buy shit before act 4 lil gupneed twink gear that bad hmmm?
can someone help me kill jamanra? inv peethreepeeoh :)
>+15% action speed on the tree>+30% action speed on ascendancy>+45% movement speed on boots>+15% movement speed on rhoa mount>+ SPRINTYeah, GGG wants us to believe that they want this game to be ZOOOM ZOOOM but its ever better than Poop 1 zoom zoom.
>>537487149>now I can push to red T16 easily.Nice fellow deadeye the only issue i have is that the game is a bit too easy. Bosses just dies instantly
>>537479093>4 sockets>+1>+1>+1HahahahahahahaWhoever is balancing Bow needs to be Balancing the rest of the game.
yup, i can feel another respec coming on....
Anyone know how long archon form lasts and what the recoup period is?
Bros... is armor actually... fixed?
Most combo abilities feel shit because doesn't feel good to actually combo, if they all felt like essence drain contagion or even something like poe1 LC+Orb of storms, most people wouldn't have a problem with two button abilities guaranteed.Why are infusion abilities on a cooldown or delayed for example, it just makes using them feel like utter dog shit.
>>537486584no
>>537487914see >>537488007 >>537485963
>>537487863Alt hover and click the archon thing or open poe2db
if i dont have point to invest in the side nodes, i shouldn't take smith's masterowrk, right? or does it just make whites insane as is
>>537483967You Just Know the retards at GGG budgeted for 650k peaks. Pooeee1's trend at the end of its life was to gain around 15-20% higher peaks every league. To not even come close to their day 1 peak on a fucking free weekend is probably a disaster.
DEADEYE NERF INCOMINGLMAO
>browns are steamchart posting again
>>537488097Ah wasnt showing in game, just the beneficial stuff. For anyone curious. Buff lasts 10 seconds, recovery is 20 seconds. Tree has duration +98% (i might have missed 2% somewhere) and recovery 45% So I guess 20 second uptime 10 second downtime.
if jonathans nerfs deadeye he might legit be retardedevery other class needs a gigantic buff

im quitting my stormweaver at t1, shit is unplayable
>>537488756bwo your fire resist?
>EDC wall reached>not enough money to ball out with regen stack infernalistis it minions time
they nerfed the black prince lol
>>537488592This should not be surprising. It's how GGG have balanced for the past 13 years.
>>537488740It's the number at the end. It ignores everything before it.https://x.com/pathofexile/status/1958258042732220582
>>537488592Deadeye should never have survived 0.1 but they just ignore it 90% of the time
uhhhhwhere are the buffs
Why is it ALWAYS>announce giga buffs for everything>actually its super duper nerfs for 99% of the game>*start buffing stuff here and there*>community starts praising gggEvery single league in poe1 has been like thisEvery single new poe2 release has been like thisA fucking toxic relationship this is
>>537488968They already buffed every class bro, now its time for the nerfs.
owari da
>>537488740https://x.com/pathofexile/status/1892233437513228554
These mini acts are kino and should be part of the main game, even if they have to be optional.
I'm having fun in the interim acts and I kind of don't want to get to maps because I don't like the poe 2 atlas.
>>537489020>>537488943Cheers lil bro, but, i ain't clickin this shit anymore now
>>537489006Because people have recency bias
>>537488947because they know if they nerf bow builds without having an otherwise healthy meta (which they're not even remotely close to at this point) that 80% of their playerbase will simply quit and never come back.
>looking through all the data mined shit to see if I can find any cool interractions for my warrior>notice a that gives Bows ANOTHER projectile>this means they can get 3 using an average bow>4 using a decent bow>5 from a good bow>and 6 from an incredible bow>Deadeyes can basically just keep increasing their power exponentially>meanwhile I'm basically hardcapped so far at t12's with Corrupting Cry because str scaling on goes so farWhat the fuck is this bullshit

>>537488614Thanks, I bought him myself.
>>537485060Weapon bases improve as you progress. find a white bow that is a better base then add a blue orb and hope you get lucky with a decent mod, if you do then keep adding orbs. Or check vendors. This is how i got like 90% of my upgrades. If you are in trade league then just buy a better one for an exalted orb.
