KNEEL BEFORE FUBGOON

I love how angry people are about everything on this sub. “Gah! If only GGG would listen to us, the game would be great!!1!1”. Bruh, they do listen. Let’s look back at the past 8 months and see what I mean. Every single example I’m about to give, GGG originally pushed back on or minimized the problem, ONLY for them to fix them cause WE wanted it.

Maps used to be one death and done. You died from over tuned volatile plants? All your loot are belong to the game now. This change was SUPER resisted by the devs, as it was against “their vision”. But they listened and the game is at least 500% better because of it. Speaking of which VPs…

Volatile plants are no longer instadeath. Originally they thought they weren’t that bad from their own experience until they got a statistician to look at the numbers and went “oh shit yeah. 40% of deaths in maps are from VP. Thats not right”.

Trade is now asynchronous and the browser is in game now. For 13 years GGG hasn’t pulled the trigger on that and now it’s here and it’s glorious. I made 12c last night in my sleep and boy, for a guy that just got to end game and needs better gear, that’s gonna help a lot.

Loot got GIGA buffed. Remember when astramentis was 45,000 times rarer than a divine? They couldn’t figure out what the problem was. But we kept saying there was a problem so they kept looking and looking until they discover that a small change they had made to unique drop tables had FUCKED amulet and ring drops.

These are just the ones from the top of my head. I could throw it sprinting, and no more cruel, and scaling down the sizes and layouts of act three maps, and so, SO much more. Things that we wanted and they said “you know what, they have a point.”

Let them cook. They are doing an amazing job. I have never interacted with a gaming corporation that listens as much as GGG. We are in good hands.

I sat there staring at my atlas and saw that I had to path through 4 empty maps to reach a tower to scout if there's corruption nearby and I think I'm done with the league.
The thing is I'm not a hater I want to play more, thinking of leveling a warbringer to test the spirit totems once they fix them just the endgame is dogshit.
I don't even care about triple overlaps for maximum juice, I don't care about bad layouts just let me run the content I want man. Forcing you to path through bad nodes combo'd with waste-your-time kill all the rares on maps that obviously have boss arenas on top of hoping the coin falls where you want it with the tablets is fucking horrendous.

People said Ranger is meta now and I'm playing it, Act 2 with around 250 dps or so.
Forsen is also playing it and is using legendary crossbow shotgun build with similar dps.
This is.. trash compared to his original Mercenary crossbow build with the crazy ass good crossbow that had 1500 dps in act 2 and at the end of it 2000 before he died.
Merc is clearly way better but I suppose it's about finding that good crossbow luck..

Depends, if you stack evasion (most classes) or armour (if warrior) pretty high you're gonna be much harder to kill. Casters can have nice ES in the campaign too but you might need an unique or two to recover it better or have more buffer+use of convalescence.

>Also, why does the map reload when you die?
Who can say, guess they thought people throwing themselves at stuff and dying repeatedly shouldn't be encouraged.

Feels great to me, after a3 I stopped seeing what bosses do cuz I killed all of them too quickly. I don't know what any boss theme sounds like.
Mapping is pretty cool with new armour, I'm not invulnerable yet at ~25k but I'm tanking shit I would've never thought of tanking on other chars. The warrior/merc side of the tree also got some love, some very good shit like ignoring speed penalty from armour. My warrior is at 44% speed with shit gear which feels great.

What's the logic here? Only for bonecage would bleed probably be good, but it would not be worth the investment at all to even try and make it work.

doomtrannies just want the game to be easy. that's it. that's literally the only thing they want. if they enjoyed arpgs, they'd be playing them. they want easy clear, easy survivability, easy bossing, easy rewards, easy metacrafting, no gameplay, no worldbuilding, no challenge, no rng, no more than one button on their keyboards. they want the game to be so easy it's unfun for everyone who hasn't already chopped their balls off and put on a dress. then the doomtrannies will be the only ones playing, but they'll look at the steam charts and get so demoralized the game just dies. all they know how to do is seethe and spite others. total doomtranny death.

No more cruel acts
Big one for me. I didn’t finish the campaign in Dawn of the Hunt strictly because once I beat the 3 acts I knew I had to do it all again and couldn’t get myself to do it.
2. Sprint!
Personally I think travel skills, especially in Poe2, are bad design. I want my skills to be skills that support how I’m playing, doing damage, buff/debuff, stuff like that. But Poe 2 was way too slow. I think the sprint has been a perfect solution. You can’t mindlessly use it, but it’s really easy to get out of a sprint before you get hit. I’m sprinting constantly and have only been stunned out of it twice.
3. The game feels less punishing
I have been able to have fun. Simple as that. I’m not exactly sure what was done but I’m playing an ice strike monk again and it feels sooooo much better. Things feel easier but I still have to pay attention to white Mobs which is one of the reasons I love this game. It’s not perfect yet (that’ll come with time and better balance) but it’s a lot better
4. Crafting changes
The crafting changes are nice! I also feel like I have waaay more crafting materials. I have plenty of Alchemy Orbs, Regals, whitestones, you name it I have plenty of it. It’s a very nice change.
5. Stacking league mechanics
I know the wisps aren’t a “league mechanic” but those with the abyss mechanic has made the campaign so much fun. I’ve had several moments where I’m chasing a wisp and then I’m in the middle of an Abyss and I have to deal with both. It just adds variety to what was a pretty stale campaign experience. Not to mention the abyss mechanic on its own is just fantastic.
6. Act 4
I really like act 4! The environments, the story, the characters, it’s all been really good!
I know there’s a lot of negativity, and a lot of it is completely fair, but man I am having so much fun this league.
Great job GGG!! Keep going in this direction and this game will be the best arpg out there. It’s already becoming one of my favorites!

PoE 2 should be the successor to Diablo 2 that PoE 1 was supposed to be before it committed to the support gem system and mapping system. PoE got a lot of great content later but it started from a weak foundation.

And almost every problem with PoE 2 right now comes down to not just getting rid of (replacing) those systems. PoE 1 was at least designed around them, making the best of them. Everything about PoE 2's design is fighting against them.
PoE 2's skills are too complex for supports to serve any purpose but theorycraft min-max. Meanwhile there's no system to take advantage of the design space that its skills actually have.
And PoE 2's open world mapping system can't do any of the things that overworlds are good at when map reward and difficulty is mostly player-determined.

>>
Why are slurpers so dishonest? No one is asking to make the game easy. By far the biggest complaint is that the character is too slow. Casuals tolerate it because they only have to run each map once in the campaign. When you have to start running maps dozens and hundreds of times to progress that's when you really start getting bothered by your character who is moving like he's in a tiny boss room and not a massive map.

Telling people to stop complaining about the mud slog speed of characters just outs you losers as campaign-and-quit casuals who never bothered playing the actual game

I love how angry people are about everything on this gen. “Gah! If only GGG would listen to us, the game would be great!!1!1”. Bruh, they do listen. Let’s look back at the past 8 months and see what I mean. Every single example I’m about to give, GGG originally pushed back on or minimized the problem, ONLY for them to fix them cause WE wanted it.

Maps used to be one death and done. You died from over tuned volatile plants? All your loot are belong to the game now. This change was SUPER resisted by the devs, as it was against “their vision”. But they listened and the game is at least 500% better because of it. Speaking of which VPs…

Volatile plants are no longer instadeath. Originally they thought they weren’t that bad from their own experience until they got a statistician to look at the numbers and went “oh shit yeah. 40% of deaths in maps are from VP. Thats not right”.

Trade is now asynchronous and the browser is in game now. For 13 years GGG hasn’t pulled the trigger on that and now it’s here and it’s glorious. I made 12c last night in my sleep and boy, for a guy that just got to end game and needs better gear, that’s gonna help a lot.

Loot got GIGA buffed. Remember when astramentis was 45,000 times rarer than a divine? They couldn’t figure out what the problem was. But we kept saying there was a problem so they kept looking and looking until they discover that a small change they had made to unique drop tables had FUCKED amulet and ring drops.

These are just the ones from the top of my head. I could throw it sprinting, and no more cruel, and scaling down the sizes and layouts of act three maps, and so, SO much more. Things that we wanted and they said “you know what, they have a point.”

Let them cook. They are doing an amazing job. I have never interacted with a gaming corporation that listens as much as GGG. We are in good hands.

If you ever wonder why bad skills that don't work well for ARPG gameplay make it into ARPGs, it's me, they're all for me.
I swear I'm not intentionally being contrarian or hipster, but I've realized over years of playing PoE and a slew of other ARPGs that I've got a sickness in me, where I get instantly bored with efficient, effective skills that work right and love skills that are, to some extent, at odds with my goals of killing everything at breakneck speeds in an ARPG.
Channeled spells you actually have to aim a bit like Storm Burst in PoE or Arcane Torrent in Diablo 3.
Melee skills that lock you down because they're slow or channeled, like Flurry in Last Epoch or Blade Flurry or Cleave in PoE or that bone spike melee thing in Grim Dawn--but not GOOD channeled melee, like Cyclone, because it's too effective and cuz I think melee spinning looks very silly.
Just plain awkward weird stuff like Charged Dash.

I think the closest thing I've ever enjoyed to an efficient or effective build in any ARPG was running a Curse-based Harvest build in Last Epoch (where I cosplayed melee while curses cleared everything but bosses) and a attack-really-slow-but-instantly-gib-everything Sunder build in PoE, and both of those were just 'decent', not great or outstanding.
So, you know, those skills aren't worthless! There are literally DOZENS OF US out there enjoying them. That's worth it, right?

you can sprint with mouse on keyboard controls too. begin the sprint, let go of wasd, but keep holding down the sprint button. you'll follow the cursor. took me a couple maps to get used to but it feels really natural now.
>>
Unpopular opinion here, but poe2 campaign is too short. Now that we have sprint I want more unique locations to visit in campaign. I want more side content. We need a blood raven and a tower location in act 1 to get skill gems, runes, and some side quests that give + attributes as a reward. Or hp or mana or Armour as a reward. Little stuff that makes the campaign have more variety, and helps you minmax, but stuff that would pass off the minmax vaultists because anything that delays them gooning out to colored flashing lights while mapping is seen as a detriment to their experience.

Jon if you are in here, you are on the right track. The vaultists are scrambling, the russian rmt cartels are ddosing because their money is going down the drain. The physicality in the game is a good thing. Sprint is excellent in that it hard counters clear speed spergs. We need more. More nerfs. Don't stop. Don't. Stop.

After playing the Flooded Prison of Act 4, I finally understand why GGG doesn't really listen to this gen or most fan on most things. How can anyone play this level and not understand the absolute masterpiece that's being created in front of us.

Not only they're managing to make a campaign so good you actually want to play it because it's a REAL part of the game and not some rock in my shoe before I have fun, but the sheer spectacle of it is so cool. I'm not just playing an excel game with cool graphics, I'm actually playing a fun video game trying to make fun build while enjoying the amazing scenery.

Sure the game isn't perfect, early game needs some smoothing out and skills could use more variety in how they're played. But let's remember one thing : the game isn't really "out". We're talking about an Early Access game that's only becoming better and better with every patch.

This gen can be so toxic and so jaded that I sometimes don't understand what some of you want or if you're ever going to be happy with the game. POE1 still exist, and POE2 doesn't need to be POE1, and I'm glad GGG is sticking to its gun.

Can't wait to play more and see what's next.

Edit: I didn't say we shouldn't criticize GGG when needed, but it should be done in another way or form, the doom posting about how the game will die because GGG doesn't understand what it wants is dumb, that's not how to do it. And again, sorry to all the POE1 fan that have 10.000 hours (I have my good share of hours on it too) but POE2 is trying something different, and you can't really compare a game that's been updated for more than 10 years to a game that's been "out" for less than one.

Also, I don't understand why some of you can play the campaign of D2 for hours and hours just trying new stuff, but for some reason you can't do that in POE2? The campaign IS the game, that's why I think GGG has nailed it out of the park with this campaign...

there is no reason to play hardcore in poe 1, or 2 for that matter.
years ago it was fun because the endgame wasn't fleshed out, you rip and fuck it, it took a few hours to get back to where you were.
most people who play hc now are casuals who go until they rip and then quit the league.

>>537662768
sprint is ok, but much like rollslop it becomes irrelevant if you're playing an actual good build, and you can get 60% movespeed boots this league.
async has already done a lot of damage to the item economy, though shitters love it because the bots are out of sight out of mind and they don't feel the effects while trading pennies for their mid-campaign rares.

I am going to be honest. Only once since December I have filled my Atlas shit.
Increases are so little and endgame is so undercooked that it feel absolutely pointless to even level it.

Am I retarded or do hybrid armour/evasion helmets where evasion>armour do not exist in this game? Poison immunity does work with pure ES helm, but wtf am I supposed to do if I want to go hybrid and keep it.
>>
So you break my defences.
You break my energy shield recover on my best character.
You break my evasion on my second character.
You remove the chaos resistance reward on the side quest, almost breaking my entire build because now i had to change my gear to compensate.

And after that you force me to do a boss I hate because part of the new content and something that is now important to me is behind said boss.
And to pile up, the thing i need its not even guaranteed.

15 boss fights of pure garbage loot. GARBAGE. Nothing else.
The amount of currency I spent to make my character to just get garbage in return.

And all that to know that in the end you will come for me to **** my character again. As you been doing season after season.

Some times I think I'm an idiot for keep playing something that seems to hate me.

Yeah this game is trash. 40% of player base playing 1 ascendancy and this is technically season 3. Balance is a joke, the game got so slowed down its like playing Ruthless. Drops suck, gem socket currency is still non-existent, and you have streamers selling every drop on the auction vendor instantly for insane prices which destroyed the economy in 2 days. The average player doesn't have the currency to buy anything.

GGG is so disconnected from the "not a streamer" player base it's sad. And they hype up the reveal to all ends with false claims but in reality its the same boring game with same garbage drops. If I wanted to play Ruthless I'd play it in PoE1.

Some of the "New bosses" are way overturned, also the seasonal activity is i don't think anyone in GGG even played it in maps to determine how overly tuned it is, and good effin luck playing Melee with 80% of monsters are range shooting at you from every effin corner with thousands of BS's

GGG devs do not play this game nor do I think they play POE 1 either...its obvious they don't play their own crap coding...New Act 4 is a glitchy mess, 3 bosses so far I have notice are glitched out, "The Prisoner" reset to full HP 4 times on me...The First new "trial" I can't even do damage to the 1st boss, its HP Regen is so high or its resetting its HP does not list REGEN as a modifier, Chaos damage does nothing to it, actually no damage at all. Doesn't matter if I am ranged or stand on the thing, the only damage that is then healed/regen instantly is when it hits me and Artic Armor goes off...Melee Mace is still garbage and there is only 1 viable build per class to play, casters Lightning damaged is still the only viable build...

I tried minions in an earlier patch and they just died in 1 hit to white mobs. I heard they're better now so I'll give minions a shot in 0.4.

I really don't get the hype of this game. The combat is worse than any other ARPG I've ever played. But half a million people are playing it so it can't be bad. I turn on streams and I don't see anyone enjoying themselves either. This is either some social phenomenon like Labubus or I just don't understand how to have fun in ARPGs anymore I guess.

So how is season 3?

Let me give you an example of a little bit of this said "balance" breaking other stuff that I doubt they took into consideration.

Imagine this... I have a monk, right?
Now Imagine this monk its using energy shield.
Now imagine that this monk its using the passive that grants spirit by the energy shield you have on armor.

If you read the passive, you will notice that by using that, you can only get your spirit from there, you can't get spirit from any other gear.

Now imagine that my armour have a certain amount of energy shield that I set up to give me just the right amount to keep my gems.

And here comes THE BALANCE that nerfed the amount of energy shield/defenses given by the Iron Rune.

And now, my armour lost a certain amount of energy shield therefore losing spirit and now my character is broken because I can't use all the gems I had.

Solution? In my **** making me spend another unholy amount of currency to buy a even better body armour to replace another that was already expensive.

See the problem with these balances?

Never happening. LA + Lightning Rod is the core of the problem and GGG refuses to touch it out of fear of bowsissies trooning out en masse and committing mass shootings over nerfs.

still amazed that you have to play through all the acts on something that isn't your intended build while still putting passives in things you can't use at the moment because of the new skill gem system arbitrarily gatekeeping you until level 50+

Its strong once you can actually trigger it with a single kill but until then you're fumbling around with a swarm of random trash mobs bumping into eachother all around the screen then twiddling your thumbs waiting for either ED to finish assuming you can hit the damn thing in the first place or spam some other skill just to get a corpse going, and by then contagion has spread and you likely no longer even need corpse explosion or the other corpse-based attacks (everything worthwhile)

crossbows are already higher DPS than bows as a weapon type. the only reason bows are meta is lightning arrow + lightning rod remove those abilities and crossbows are vastly better. bow dominance has nothing to do with quivers or rhoa mount it is literally just those two abilities.

So essence drain? Contagion is an enable, it does nothing on its own. So it's judgment needs to be based in its' function, not the function of the skill it enables. As a spreading agent, contagion is clunk like that anon says, because it's hard to hit more than one target and hard to aim at what it hits in a game with 100s of enemies. If contagion could hit in an aoe, then it'd be strong. But it's function as a spreader is hampered by this downside. It's mid. There's a reason people swap out of it in high end content

Didn't expect PoE 2 endgame to turn into full blown Serious Sam game, the entire screen is just monsters. The main issue is the fact it tanks the framerate to 30 fps too. My rig can handle Abysses and Corrupted monsters but apparently not both at the same time.

D4 and 'poch are both better ARPGs. That's for sure.

>>537670683
biggest changes are that extremely rare mods like Merciless are much easier to craft fractured bases for thanks to perfect trans/augs. 1/360 white bows can be made into a fractured Merciless crafting base. Those are worth a ton of divs by themselves.
Omen of Light + Omen of Whittling makes whittling strategies far less expensive because the defiling mod can be used as a blocker to reduce the mod pool
Also new in 0.3, omen of homogenising coronation and exaltation (homo omens) with perfect regals make going for armor bases with double res way better. It's like an essence but you can get T1 rolls.

I get what you're trying to argue for here and I agree in spirit, but my answer would be I would be happy to stand shoulder to shoulder with them against the oligarchy. That doesn't mean that social progressives need to suddenly support abortion bans just to court the religious poor, but rather than abortion needs to be left alone as an issue. But this is tough to do when we can't just stop and focus on class warfare while the current oligarchs in charge slowly destroy reproductive rights, because fighting the rich is going to take time. Time we don't have if they destroy our lives before we can win.

This is just one example issue, but it's true across the board, including for some progressive issues.

What we can't have is the extremists on either side using the false promise of unity against the rich to ram through their social demands.

So yes, I'm happy to stand side by side with people with very different viewpoints, if we're actually focused on the real enemy. But if they just use that as a bargaining chip, we're fucked.

I got to red maps and finished my third ascendancy, my meme Doryani's Prototype Tactician Minion build is officially online. I have 10 Living Lightnings and 22 Bone Constructs all benefitting from my main hand damage while clearing maps, and for single target all that strength means Death From Above hits like a truck and Storm Mages nuke bosses with -100% resists.
>but anon, how do you deal with lightning and chaos damage in abysses?
by being in another fucking zip code. with alpha's howl my """presence""" extends off-screen, I go jerk off in a corner aiming ball lightning in their vague direction and wait for the golden skulls to disappear and the abyss trove icon to pop up before waltzing over to collect my loot.

at least 50 of these are from abysses grinding the game to a halt and even sometimes crashing shaders and giving the mid-map loadscreen gears where pause stops working and enemies kill you while the game isn't even rendered.

Sin's memory loss is referring to his mortal life. It's heavily implied he was a Precursor and was possibly involved with the creation of the Seed but can't remember since it was before godhood. Kalandra told him where to go find the Seed after it was made and hidden away.

Serious post please listen, thank you.

So everyone here is a larper right? None of you have ACTUALLY beaten Jamenrah. I've been playing since 0.1 and not one of my characters has taken the cunt down yet. I even leveled one of them (a ranger) to level 46 and I still couldn't do it. I have 8 characters who made it that far and several others besides, but it's usually a 50/50 shot on whether I can get past Rathbreaker. Hundreds of hours put into this game. Needless to say, I'm quite knowledgeable when it comes to Path of Exile 2 and well aware of the vision. So I know what I'm talking about, and none of you have ever beaten Jamonrah. You're all liars.

pob isn't updated with the new patch gems or skills (and even when they are added, they're often done wrong, pob said my 0.2 companion build should have done 5k dps when it was melting t15 map bosses in seconds) but here's the current tree I'm working with.
https://pobb.in/L9tbfFTiX4tL
There is so much pathing from tactician to the minion area of the tree you really don't have much room to deviate. Part of why I went doryani's was realizing I wouldn't have enough points to properly invest in defenses so I might as well go glass cannon. Your defensive layers are blasphemy temp chains using tactician's fancy 50% discount, 22% damage taken from mana before life, and literally 40 minions between you and the enemies.

I actually think it's better than quicksilver for what they are going for. The only problem is needing to dodge in and out of it. More things should cancel it and it should turn better, but I agree with the philosophy that players should slow down to engage packs. It prevents them from making monsters too op.

All these green monsters, dropping green puddles and green balls that explode is so insanely tiring. The game needs to take a step back (IMO) on the on screen clutter because frankly I do not understand how this is supposed to amount to meaningful combat. The melee experience currently is to spam space and *constantly* be in motion or you will risk being one shot by a mechanic you'd have to rewatch 5 times to see.

I understand they want meaningful combat, but I dont really feel like playing melee like I have icy-hot on my balls as the proper way to play. Constantly attacking and dodge rolling thru mobs because standing still is often death with the amount of martyrdom, ground puddles and (almost) un-seeable bombs. This often dis-proportionally effect melee too because casters are singing payphone from 40 yards while all this shit is happening.

Jokes aside I never understood why cyclone fucks with your movement speed or has such low base damage.
I guess GGG have always been retards when it comes to skill balance.

>>537682090
yeah it's dead
i really need to take some other standard eu server

I'm fine to get back to the actual conversation whenever you're done with the tantrum

Do thr new nodes that make minions gigantic work with temp minions?

>>537682135
I'm thinking they're hesitant to make Cyclone too good at "base" since it'd just buff CoC builds that are already good on their own and they can't just kneecap those since it's a popular build.
>>
HOPESTERS? NOT LIKE THIS!?

I can’t handle listening to the guy for more than 5 minutes. I’m sorry, I know he can't control it, but holy shit is it awful.

Cyclone will be a builder spender skill
Something you use once then wait 12 seconds then use again
It's never ever gonna be "press spin to win" ever
OR

The mana costs will be insanely high

Sir, can you do multiplication? This solves all your problems with identifying poo2 balance issues
>>
>>537682202
whats the 'conversation' this is like the 20th time some poe 1 streamer had a meltdown over some random shit.
poe 1 essence drain
>Deals (12-926) to (18-1389) Chaos Damage
poe 1 fireball
>Deals (9-1640) to (14-2460) Fire Damage
how is that fair? lets have a meltdown over different numbers.

>>537682534
>If poe2's balance is so bad then why does poe1 do this

you might actually be handicapped

yes, I tested it myself by going into a map, using unearth, and then allocating the passive point to see before and after tooltip damage change. it also buffs Supporting Fire, the reservation increase is a downside but it's not required for it to work; you're basically getting a 7th link and having Hulking Minions applies to all your Minion skills, even those that can't normally support it. Putting the gem on them likewise does nothing since it's a keyword, it's like if there was a node to ancestrally boost stuff you normally can't.
