poo2 big shit
Doomers win again
We need poowun EOS more than ever.
>Imagine believing

40% more poo40% more stink
>>548979968>>548980002TRVKE
Atziri's ass...
Aris liked the reveal, therefore I liked the reveal
yeah i'm thinking pathfinder flame breath
ZERO POINT FIVE WAITING ROOM
The maximum I am prepared to use is two active skills, then I can have one on each weapon set and use left click / right click.
For me? It's rake titan
>>548979667I don't get it can someone explain this image to me, why are all those girls looking at urinals?
is there a copy of the new skill tree or full ascendancy nodes out there somewhere?
>>548979810>Combos only suck because there is no reason to do themIs it a problem now? I used Falling Thunder throughout the entire campaign in 0.2, and it took away a third of the bosses HP per hit. In 0.3 I played as a sorceress and I can't imagine dealing any damage with her without combos. Also the chronomancer is quite underrated and quite fun if you put in the effort. I think I'll try her again with new skills and nodes in this league.
>>548980089no joke watching poe1 streamer "veterans" play poe2 was fucking painful, i can only imagine how developers felt watching some streamer "try spears" and ONLY spam rake for like 3 acts not even putting disengage on their bars then complaining spears are shit.
>>548980352Just your usual shitter that is bad at the game and gravitates towards the popular one button builds.
I've played poe 2 for 300 hours and I really don't remember the skills, items, or supports.I'm just gonna go druid and be a bear
>>548979794DOG SHIT OF EXILE 2NO NEW ACTS OF EXILE 2NO SWORDS OF EXILE 2NO TOTA OF EXILE 2NO ENDGAME CHANGES OF EXILE 2NO CHALLENGES OF EXILE 2NO PALADlN OF EXILE 2
>Thunderstorm level 5>Cannot Drench enemies above level 32Ah yes, another weird, arbitrary restriction which does not actually make a skill more interesting and instead just gives it an arbitrary minimum cost restriction on top of having to cast it.
He won.
if you had the option to use generators/spenders and the option to use one button and both did the same damage not a single person would play generators/spenders.therefore it is bad design.
0.4 looking comfy
What you don't get is that we're using WASD so that 4 buttons just to move. I don't wanna need to use 5 skills as well, I haven't got enough fingers
>>548980281it is a mystery...
>>548980626Atziri should have a cock instead of a second pair of boobs desu
>>548980626>spear clips through her face twice
>>548980586>if you had the option to take the path of least resistance then you would always take it, therefore everything else is bad design.The PoE1 intellectual has spoken
>>548980767she has been corrupted so einsteinian physics dont apply
>here's that ferocious bestial shapeshifter I was telling you about
>>548980626>no mirror>no lightning arm>smaller tits>probably shorter toonot impressed
>>548980626>tiny mosquito bite nipples instead of big juicy mommy areolasleague ruined
>I hate combos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!no seriously why do you guys hate combos
>>548980626>giant nose ringWomen want to be respected but voluntarily brand themselves as cattle. How do you square that circle?
Is it just me or is Druid just more comboslop?
are monks still shit?
>>548980871i dont see the appeal in jumping through the same hoops over and over again to do damage instead of just doing damage
>>548980646>I don't wanna need to use 5 skills as well, I haven't got enough fingerslollmao
>>548980871Cos you're killing thousands of mobs. Maybe a combo for a tough pack or boss as a boost sometimes, but not every single fucking gang of white niggas
Are we going with Lily's build this league?
>>548980971>monks>shitLiterally one of the strongest classes.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA let me replace the auto attack with another skill gem
>>548980986>>548981006In previous versions any half-decent build has cleared white mobs with a trigger and a detonator, 2 skills, and only needed more for bosses and rares like you describe.
0.4 will be shit and we won’t get a update until mid february
>>548981220>but it's only a little bit obnoxious for no reasonokay?
>>548980871Because the enemies aren't. They walk up, maybe shit some tar on you, then proceed to kill you with incredible speed. Whereas we have to assemble Exodia just to do a quarter of their HP.
they should just skip the February poo1 league and do a mid league update to PoE2
>>548980089why are POO1 players like this?
JONATROON
>>548980871>why do you guys hate having to manage charges, cooldowns, timing windows every single pack for no extra payoff?nobody knows...
>>548981362are we gonna have to break out the build diversity stats and passive tree heatmaps again lil gup
>>548981491sure, make sure you compare 0.4 in POO1 with 0.4 in POO2 though :)
>>548981362https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ffqre27h_0c
>>548981220This is my ideal kinda build example right - use armor piercing shots and that enough on its own most of the time, then occasionally blam a nigga with high velocity. Thats it. Maybe throw in some grenades every now and again to clear a bit faster.
REMOVE KINGSMARCH GACHASLOPYOU FAT FUCKING TROON
>>548981585>but it'll be good in 10 yearsthe old poop2 classic
>>548981647I accept your concession
REMOVE ASYNC RETENTIONKILLER
im more upset that i got hyped in the first place than the fact the update is badi should have just known better by now
What builds should I play now? Shield wall was going to ve my goto but the DR upon boss spawn could easily ruin the fun for me.
>>548981736cant wait to play the real poop2 in the year 2035
>>548981140Yes
I have note played since 0.1, is now a good time to start or is the game still slow dark souls slop and not a arpg where I have to click 10 buttons to kill a pack of white mobs? Any speed boosts? Any tower changes? Maybe reduce map size?
>>548981632I think that's reasonable. I don't feel like most builds go very far beyond that. They have a bread and butter means of dealing damage with some additional layers that they can add if they need more punch.
ice strike invoker
SPOILER: WITH TROONATHAN AT THE HELM POO 2 WILL STILL BE SHIT IN 10 YEARS
>>548981834finally, you'll have your bing bing wahoo screen vomit by then
OH SHITOH SHIT OH SHITI FINALLY FOUND ONE OF THE 5 WHITE MONSTERS IN THIS MAP*generates 5 transformation charges**builds up combo**transforms into debuff + curse form on weapon swap* *slowly walks backwards to let the monsters damage reduction dissipate*IT IS TIME... TO STRIKE!HAAAAAA YAAAAHOLY SHIT THE MONSTER DROPPED A PERFECT WISDOM SCROLL! THIS IS KINO
>>548981427>manage charges, cooldowns, timing windowssounds like playing a game
>>548981885it's like the speed of light, the ideal version of poo2 is always 10 years away
POO 2HUGE STINK
POO2 SHITTERS GOT BTFO
>>548981953it's about pack density....not amount of packs. Why are POO1 players illiterate? is it third worlditis are simply retardation?
>>548981959sounds like a waste of time when I can just hit the hotkey for my lightning skill and not have to deal with a bunch of bullshit nobody asked for in an arpg.
The decision to tie shapeshifting to a weapon type seems extremely fucking braindead. So many of my problems with POE 2 seem to all come back to GGG's decision to lock certain skills to weapon types. It's just such a restrictive design choice that really takes a lot of the fun out of the game and build crafting.
>>548981953yep sounds kino. better than>heh, check out this build diversity. did you know that if I press this button the entire map explodes, but in a different color? now it's purple and green as opposed to my last build, blue and red
So now that bear druid gets spell totems for FREE, are we thinking about supporting the totem, or are we thinking about the totem supporting the bear?
>dude heh... ill just play deadeye again, it's going to be so OPit's legitimately insane how many people play Path of Exile and do zero thinking for themselves. LA Deadeye is fucking dead. You can't frontload the damage with rods, tailwind got a 33% nerf, rhoa got a nerf. I am extremely confident about that (screenshot this). This will be equivalent to slam or boneshatter meta in PoE where you want high survivability and single large AoE hits to kill high monster effectiveness rares and clear Vaal Temple rooms.
are any other new starting classes or ascendencies getting added or is it all just druid stuff? I’m in the car and I can’t get a definitive answer on google.
What killed the hype? Are you really not going to play the league? Anon will commit suicide when we don't break 500k.
>>548982330You forgot the part where they're doing the same thing you do with skills but with flasks instead.
>>548982438>are any other new starting classes or ascendencies getting added or is it all just druid stuff? just druid and two druid ascendancies
>>548981875Thats an acceptable combo because its like you got one thing for general use and another for a boss. Thats ok. On the other hand, an example that annoys me is permafrost + frag rounds. its ok for clearing but then you're better off using armor+HVR for bosses, which feels like two different builds. If you have two main skills you can avoid ammo swtiching by using weapon swap, but if you have multiple skills then you have to faff about ammo switching, but I guess thats juts a crossbow specific pain in the ass
>>548982438Literally just the two Druid ascendancies. Nothing new added for any other classes. Gonna be 2028 before this game has all classes and ascendancies.
>>548979794What happened to the game of the year post?
>>548982580thanks for the reply anon. wtf tho, druid was supposed to be in 0.3, I was coping that the delay meant that we were still getting something else new in 0.4 along with it.
>>548982470I'm playing because I finally built a computer after 12 years and can play the game for the first time. But I'm pretty sad my first impression is going to be on a weak league like this. Was really hoping they would deliver that endgame and some fun challenges to work through but oh well. I'll probably just play the campaign once to see what it's like, do a few maps and then wait for the next patch.
>>548982408You can tell all these people are just parroting streamers too. There is a weird doubletalk where they insist that no matter what GGG does, you can always just play a one button build and ignore all the incentives to play combos but if combos are actually better than one button builds, these same people seethe about being forced to do them.
>>548982369you need charges to place spell totems. it's DOA
>>548981000SMN didn't deserve the lobotomy it got in EW and I'm still annoyed that was the price we had to pay in order for a summoner to actually use summons
>>548982741You get them for free by spending your rage that druid gets for free
>>548982694i think they were focusing all of their effort on an end game overhaul for this patch but then that got "out of scope" or whatever so now it's in the next patch. they probably did like a weeks worth of time on the druid. got that playable. spent three months on the thing they arent going to release and then just went hey here you go
WHOLELEAGUESKIPPED
>>548982856>>548982619>>548981853I don't get it. This is obviously a man right?
>>548982856whats crazy is that I look like that
>>548980703who says she doesn't? also it's probably horse cock shaped
>>548982959>use totem by spending charges after spending rage you generated on a tuesday when saturn is in retrograde
>>548982856Why are you so obsessed with this man, he literally has a penis.
>>548982470I'm going to check out Wyvern and if it sucks, I'm going to be pissed and probably quit. 40% less packsize with abyssal crafting probably being stealthnerfed sounds like a poverty-league in the making.
>>548983261>>548983334trannyminds
@548982959retarded nigger faggot
This is an ssf league
>>548982408yeah real gamers are going pf xbow
uh oh melty!
What's this 3 charges shit they're doing with all totems? Why the fuck are they making playing with totems dogshit?
>>548980948it is in fact more combo slop
>>548980089I'm sure they have internal numbers about this but why is the PoE 2 hc scene almost strictly PoE 1 players?
Can't wait to play yiff or exile 2, have to main wolf form because he's literally me
Need a list of all viable builds that aren't stupid combo horse shit no one wants. The only fun build every league is fucking deadeye. That's going to get old eventually. wtf are they doing
Charge those totems up lil karui
having a sissysquirt right now
>>548983753>>548983515
>>548983515Sell me on this
>anti-burst boss shieldskek
im glad that GGG is no longer catering to one button sloppies
>>548983589because jonathan is an inbred fat bitch. totems were already a divisive playstyle and now you have the added clunk of fucking around with charges to use them? even people that enjoy totems ain't going to want to deal with that.
>>548983753I'm gonna play Druid minions. I think it's still a 0-button build.
Stormweaver always creating an extra infusion is a nice change. Living bomb got a sizable damage buff (drops fire infusion).I wonder if any druid spells are infusion consumers
>>548983641>>548980948Has Jonathan posted any footage of him using the shitty 10-step spear combos in a juiced end-game map yet? He loves to talk up his beloved combos and yet literally NO ONE uses them outside of maybe the campaign.
Who watering they plants
they will not let go of the whole combo concept i have no idea why you niggers act suprised everytime, poe1 gameplay is not coming back why the fuck do you even bother
Combo my balls
>>548984162Because every league we have found builds that completely ignore the combo slop anyway, and jonathan has been powerless to stop it.
whats the new crafting
Sex with bears, wolves, and dragons
>>548984162cope.
>>548984162niGGGer said they would never do async trading but here we are. just gotta wait a little over a decade for them to remove combos
How come in the trailer the player is always at less then 50% health? Like in every fight they're almost dead
Witch should get 4 boobs desu
The Vaal were described as being covered in gems and glittering. Yet only one glittering gem could be found on Atziri's body and it was in her butt. Is this a unique drop?
>poe1 1 week beforeeveryone practicing>poo2 1 week beforeeveryone playing pd2 or poe1XDD

>>548984586>>Last Lament untouchedIt incurred a "movement speed while firing" penalty in the form of movespeed while firing values on tree getting reduced and spread out more.

Mark should take over. I don't think he gives a shit about this combo retardation.
OMEN CRAFTING GUTTEDNO ENDGAME CHANGESDOGSHIT LEAGUE MECHANICUSELESS NEW CLASS-40% PACK SIZE
Wait I have to spend money to play poe 2?
I just want a skill to be effective by itself. I don't mind using one skill for crowd clearing and another for single targets. Some things are kinda cool like igniting oil or something. But some skills are literally useless by themselves in any situation. Look what they did to rapid shots for fuck sake. You can't use that except as a combo. It is literally a forced combo skill. Thats fucking GAY
>>548984147I'm watering the plants
FAT FUCKING TROON BADHAIR FUCKING GENIUS GOOD
As far as I can tell, Dark Pact isn't in the game yet. Are there any spells that sacrifice your own life? I'm trying to theorycraft explodey totems
>>548984547Project Dark 2...?
>>548984604>>548984951they're going to prep you with a dry fisting first anyway
>exalt slam rare tablet>increased gold bricks your fucking tabletNice change GGG
>Raise Zombie: Empowered Zombie now deals 122-253% more damage with Hits at Gem levels 5-20 (previously 100%).How do you go an entire FUCKING YEAR and not realize people aren't using your shit skill because there's no consistent way to generate charges? These patch notes are fucking retarded
>>548983589>>548984053It's literally only for Spell Totem Support you retards, extant totem skills are unchanged
just delete the entire summoner archetype, whiniest fucking faggots in all of arpgs in every single game
>>548985384you WILL dodgeroll to trigger lingering illusion, wait for it to die, and then run into the power charge on the ground so you can use your abilties
TWO GAMESZERO ENDGAMES
>>548985384Man changes are there to pad it out and make it look bigger than it is.
so when people inevitably start blasting the endgame with one button builds, getting more loot than they did in 0.3, am I just supposed to forget all of you retards bitching?
Isn't the framerate only higher in 0.4 because they reduced the amount of mobs by 40%
>>548985638yeshad the exact same whining in 0.3 and 0.2 and 0.1 btw
>>548985638The only thing people are consistent at is being inconsistent.
>>548985638if theres no 1 button builds and no loot, doomers win because the game will be shit and retention terribleif there are 1 button builds and lots of loot, doomers win because jonathan failed to enforce his vision and embarassed himself againkneel
>>548985659delet this
The campaign is genuinely stealing resources away from the endgame.If you think otherwise you're stupid
>>548980626Where's the clip of her ass?
>>548985638there's obviously going to be 1 button builds they didnt nerf a bunch of them lmao
>>548985928most poe2 players are only in it for the campaign
>>548985928Honestly I kind of don't feel like playing at all until we get act 5
>>548985876i fuarking kneel
I know this is a stupid question buthow do i reach lycia for the bloodline
>>548986130Do a full sanctum and kill her
>Dogshit slow combo ablilitiesCool druid bros
>>548986130Sanctum. She's the Final Boss.
>>548985980I chuckled when Jonathan said "because Lightning Spear needed more AOE".
>muh combos>muh slow movement>muh builder spenderyou niggers had the exact same "complaints" about huntress and it proceeded to be a one button (two for bossing) screenclear machine for the entire leagueall in on druid stocks
>remove anointing which is a guaranteed buff because its too tedious>put in more rng with tablets instead which is even more tedious to get what you wantI don't understand these fucking devs
>I can finally yiff in PoE2Yea im now playing your game
>>548985996how many players are campaign-only whalesnot many i presume
>>548986331im pretty sure volcano/rolling magma is going to blast aslong as the numbers aren't ass
did they delete some of the trathus gems I feel like there were a lot more interesting ones than bladefall
>>548986203>>548986228will any i83 one work? i've literally never done sanctum
>>548985593I don't think so, jonathan!>plays different game

>>548986518prepare your anus
Reminder that Ancestral Warrior Totems were so easy to generate charges for that they had to limit it to just 10 totems instead of endless amounts of them
0.7 will fix it

1.0 will fix itin 2029
I don't think I'll be playing poe2 this league. poe1 already left a bad taste in my mouth. what game should I play for the next 2-4 months instead?
Tablets should vary in effectiveness and uses.Keep the current tablets but then a tablet with one use should have some insane numbers and everything inbetweenEvery tablet lasting 10 maps only serves to make mapping more monotonous
>>548986927witchhunter armor stacker
Surprised no one has mentioned that having 40% less monsters will absolutely fuck some builds which relies on constant kills for stacks. Even the monster nerf in the middle of 0.3 kind of messed with some buffs.
>>548986927im going to try werewolf on gemling or something and if it sucks then im just going to quit the league and play a good game instead
>>548987289Russian roulette
SEVEN YEARSONE DOG SHIT GAMESTILL IN EAHUMILIATED BY GOTY
why did they nerf hollow palm at end game when it is rubbish versus staff anyway?is chonk good now?
>>548987324what if faGGGot increases the base duration of stacks/charges/etc. for skills that require them?
>>548980871Why can't I just cast the spell I want and have it be good
>there are people unironically excited for 0.4wtf
>>548987324it's also a survivability buff to everybody who wasn't ES leeching with like 20k ES; enemies are being reduced by 40% but health and loot increased by 40% to compensate, but that still means there's 40% fewer attacks and projectiles damaging you
I keep dying in PD2 hardcore should I make yet another HC Barbarian or go softcore?
>>548987402I'm not russian though...
>>548980626TSAA vomit
>>548987530Hollow palm absolutely destroyed staff builds for single target and AOE with good gear in 0.3. I don't know what shit gear you had. It was completely overturned.
>>548986927mite try wind chonk
It's actually kinda cute that Jonathan is going through the very same cycle that made Chris absolutely hate modern Path of Exile. Synthesis and Heist were also Chris Wilson's babies that he loved developing. He talked about how he was inspired by the board games he played when making Synthesis and how he would work on it afterhours, just like Jonathan talking about Fate of the Vaal.When the playerbase ultimately hates it because it's not killing monsters in a circle, he'll start to hate that GGG had cultivated a playerbase full of bingbingwahoolootexplosion retards.

>>548987772what do you mean, no one was playing hollow palm at end game because +skills on weapon is so essential to doing anything, staff was crushing it in dam
>>548987949God I hope he spergs out and gets killed by Tencent
>>548982697The league mechanic looks sick. The base game is still fine. It's just if you've been playing for a year, you probably wanted the endgame updates
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKYOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
lol poo2 shitters in shambles after getting BTFO at the live stream, get fucked
>>548988159The patternsThey are dark
Gamer dads love it.
>>548987971its hilarious that ggg is incapable of understanding why people want combos like lightning arrow+lightning rod or galvanic shards+shockburst rounds which are natural complements to each other as basic clear+single target setups and instead keeps trying to brute force the most dogshit mmo rotation shit imaginable on top of running around like a headless chicken picking up remnants for every skill and is just baffled when people simply DON'T do that.Seriously, somebody sit jonathan down and make him stream five hours of gameplay as galvanic+shockburst and then switch to a garbage earth shatter fissure build or 0.3 infusion gameplay and seriously ask if he can tell the difference or not
>>548987253They actually said during the live stream that they didn't include all the notes because they didn't want backlash. Get the fuck ready
>he isn't playing SorceressExplain yourself.
>>548987772in white maps maybeit's godly for leveling and falls off hard past that
>>548988017By the time I quit my attack speed, crit, and damage was so high that I could just use a single shattering palm spam to wipe the entire screen and zoom around the map with it. I could also completely overkill Uber arbiter only 3 seconds after he spawned too with falling thunder. There was no way it was staying like this for 0.4
Surely the druid is going to have a ascendancy relevant to shapeshifting?
wasnt the ccu pretty low for the huntress update?
>>548988287nice bot reply
>>548986927Witchhunter cold bow/snipe or the wolf druid depending on numbers/ascendancies
>>548988287Yeah like gas cloud and igniting it is fun. Jon's version of combos is tedium and unfun.

>>548986927So if I play a Druid, Shaman specifically for the node to take all damage as a form of elemental damage, then I beeline it for all the charm nodes I end up with.15 charm generated per second, 136% increased charges gained, -18% used, 20% chance to not use charges, 20% chance to use another charm for free. Breath of the Mountain grants a power charge on hit with the elemental damage conversion ascendancy, and low ball 10% fewer charge sused for -28%. 20 of 40 charges per use, reduced by 38%, so 13 of 40 charges per use. We will generate .34 charges per second. So 1 charge per 3 seconds, or 13x3 a power charge per 39 seconds. 39 seconds x 3 charges needed will be 117 seconds without either of the 2x 20% free procs going off. After this I path to the right of charms for all charge duration and through monk for power charge duration to maintain duration time. So roughly every 2 minutes I then drop a totem which with my lack of damage scaling on the tree will probably require about an hour per rare and 1.5+ hours per boss. This is Jonathan's Vision. His game. We just live in it and I will live accordingly.
LMP Rolling Magma + Volcano is obviously going to be the build of the league. For some reason selfcast spellcasting build with no scaling gimmicks will be considered bad for some reason even though people have been begging for that in PoE 1
>>548988601Find me "totem" anywhere on the tacticianOh whait...Retard
what warrior ascendancy for going bear modeleaning towards smith
>>548965460Everyone's treating this as if there's 40% less mob density.It's not 40% less density, they're witholding 40% extra density from some baseline. That means there's ~29% less density in T16s.
how does shapeshitting even scales, like if i will get giant blood will i be able to use two handed mace for bigger dmg and slower swings while having talisman off hand or no? giant blood lol they havent even implamented proper melee yet i wonder what combo mechanic will cyclone/lacerate/dual swing have how can you complicate something so simple
Jonathan will not be happy until it's just one white mob every screen and you're rolling around prepping you combos timed well with your 12 other charge spenders hopefully you collected on the last white mob.
>no skele buffs>spectres in mystery limbo while the one guy who hates summoner fucks things up even more
>play cws>want to fight map boss>have to press penance mark to create small mobs that i have to kill by triggering skills off of cast when stunned to hit those small mobs and proc a 5% explosion to ignite the boss then have to refresh the ignite by getting hit to trigger punishment to force the refresh with defiled forceswhy is poowan full of so many forced combo interactions?
>>548989223>Cyclone0.5 seconds channel time per frenzy charged consumed to use the skill, please understand
if you aren't playing Titan you are literally retarded
>>548989135going from 14 guys down to 10 per pack will still feel ass
>>548989135id take more loot from less mobs than more mobs for the same loot and performance boost
Wish I knew wtf an adaptation is and what the max stacks is. Avatar of Evolution, Rat Cage, Fireflower and any ignite allows you to hit yourself infinite times for infinite adaptations for X * 8% less elemental damage
>>548989135we literally got a mob count hit in 0.3 because of dad gamer shitters. even a -29% was not needed
>>548986927gardener druid into wolfpack summoner into pin tactician when those are inevitably shit
>>548989021???????totem isn't even a weapon type niggerlord but here you go
>>548987949the player base might be more receptive to non "killing-monsters-in-a-circle" slop if the juice was worth the squeeze. if I have to do X, Y, and Z in one league to get the same amount of rewards as the league where I only have to do X then of course I'm going to prefer the latter league.And the thing is arpgs are supposed to be for bingbingwahoo retards. that's the reason you're here even if you don't want to admit it and it's the reason I'm here. If I want intricate gameplay mechanics I'll go play something like dwarf fortress, if I wanna do timed combos I'll go play street fighter, etc. If I wanna blow shit up and see numbers going up I'll play an arpg. if you think niGGGer wants to cultivate a field of carrots they need to stop planting corn seeds.
>>548989354shut up frognigger
>>548989572This. I'm here to get loot to make my build better and better. I'm not interested in playing Tekken while doing that.
>>548989551So you proved my point retard lmao>Shapeshifting>weapon typelmao
This will be my first time playing poe2 instead of poe1, what am I in for?
>>548987949when sanctum was a league in poe1 people by and large really liked it; the problem with poo2 is that sekhemas is 100x worse than sanctum and melee is ridiculously cucked compared to poe1 making it extra bullshit. add on no life on the tree and one shots galore for anyone not at 30k es and it's just ultra frustrating. sanctum had one of the best retention rates of any poe league ever. the problem is not "REE I WANNA KILL SHIT IN A CIRCLE" the problem is poo2 just sucks and has no endgame and even the fun parts get changed or nerfed from poe1
hollow palm techniquetalismen bear formice strikekung fu pandamake it happen ggg
People compare PoE 2 to Bloodborne and Sekiro as an INSULT, that should tell you what this playerbase is like
>>548986927Chaos Chrono, it somehow went completely unnerfed so I'm going to turn t3 simu into an infinite money hack again
I wanna be a wolf but I don't wanna summon shit ass baby wolfs like a minion cuck why can't this game just be made gooder. Stop designing builds for me and just let me play whatever
>>548989854people hate Sanctum now and even when it shat out currency, people hated that they were 'forced' to do it
>>548987949people fucking love the lord's labyrinth in poe1 and they decided to replace it with trial of chaos for ascending in poo2, literally a "kill shit in a circle" mechanic with the added dogshit of not even being able to properly weigh risk:reward for trial rounds like in poe1, since you have to complete the whole thing to ascend and get rewards anyways, you just go until you die and try again, the loot sucks and there's no reason to weigh "just one more" vs leaving with what you already earned.
>>548989813You'll have a great time
>>548990032>people fucking love the lord's labyrinth in poe1lmao what
>>548989894You can't ice strike as a bear
ngl chat i think this one's a little underwhelming, druid has nice animations but looks like it's gonna suck, incursion is ok, no atlas rework though really? please just fucking kill poe1 already, EOS that shit, stop wasting so much time and money on it. poe2 is the future
Didnt look at the trailerIs wolf/bear stuff skill gems or not?
>>548989756>>Shapeshifting>>weapon typeYes? Animal forms are an innate property of Talismans as a weapon type you mongoloid
>>548989330idk the summoner lore at ggg but automatically agree with whoever hates summoner.Spectres are a ridiculously complicated and time consuming development that have to be maintained for the rest of the game's life. In exchange, you get 1 neat skill for a niche playstyle. Everyone will just pick whatever's strongest and move on with their lives anyway, so what's the point?They could've made a new cool and viable skill for every weapon in the game, spent more time each league on balance, and given summoners an ant spell and 99.5% of players would not notice the loss.
>>548990094did I fucking stutter?izaro and lab ascending is positively beloved compared to poo2; every single league I look forward to my campaign lab runs meanwhile I fucking dread sekhemas in poe2 and buy honor resist relics asap to get it over with before selling them right after
>>548990151No you just have to equip a talisman in your weapon slot, and then you can choose if you want it to turn you into a bear, a wolf, or a wyvern.
>>548990125thats why i said make it happen
>>548990141>2 Games, 1 Campaign Failed>2 Games, 2 Campaigns is DyingIt's time for 1 Game, 2 Campaigns
>>548990242>equip a talisman in your weapon slotSo... how do you gain based damage? From the talisman?
>>548990226lol no everyone hated lab and was cheering when they said it was going to be in poe2 before we learned the alternative
Yet another league where I'm playing bow because I don't want to deal with this combo bullshit
>>548990032>>5489900941 players have this massive doublethink where they believe liking izaro = liking lab when lab is probably top 5 shittiest mechanics between both gamesA lot of it is from retards in 0.1 who got traumatized by dying to Rattlecage or losing honor because they can't walk around traps
>>548990371lightning rod+lightning arrow is a combo
It's been a year and I've literally never unlocked my final two ascendancy points because Sekhemas and Ultimatum are such dogshit
>>548990337Talisman is 2H martial weapon so yeah probly skills based on weapon damage but you do a bear move
>>548990337Yeah
>17
seems like nuke wave unarmed karate monk is gonna be the easiest non-LA build. if tornado Druid is good (or even a thing) I may try that.
>>548990457For me?Its the fucking terrible voice acting from the ghost.It sucks so fucking hard."Another challenge over cummed"
>>548990525I've only dont third one a couple of times, never fourth.
>>548990525you can just buy the frags for ultimatum for the fourth point and it only takes 1 runsekhemas for the third point is the most vile dogshit
>>548990592>doom kneel
Any of you faggots/niggers wanna criticize PoE 2 you gotta go through me first FUCK YOU
>>548990592Well thats fucking gay
>>548990525>>548990680>these are the people who think they can comment on "endgame balance"lol
>>548990735>sekhemas for the third point is the most vile dogshitAre you disabled?
>>548990592Is that a flower? Is he hitting enemies with a flower?
>>548990850Its just too shit to do, I can endgame without it
Somone post the druid ascendancys
>>548990457>when lab is probably top 5 shittiest mechanics between both gamesthe only people who think like this are total shitters dying to traps because they can't slot a mobility skill or bleed immune flask
>>548990937t3 maps aren't "endgame" m8
>>548990890yeah i meant fourth point my bad
>>548990961>dying to trapsNobody has died to traps in lab in years, you can facetank them on almost any build and some don't even need a life flask
gonna go ssf, question is do i go hc too? never done in it poe but i like to play xcom ironman and rimworld permadeath
>>548990976I've done all endgame shit M8, without all ascendancy points. You probably got a carry anyway you faget
>>548990912Nah the Primal Talisman is the one on the left there, the flower is this. Technically you don't hit with the talismans either, the default attack for them is the claw attack for the form you have it set on.
>>548991095Embarrassing post
>>548991071you'd never remotely think lab was "top 5 shittiest mechanics between BOTH games" unless you were a shitter dying to traps because there's literally nothing objectionable about lab besides them. Trial of Chaos in poe2 has more than five dogshit modifiers and the dumb buggy bird boss is already more annoying to deal with on a fresh character than the entirety of lab in poe1, even uber lab
>>548990592what is the explanation for why shapeshifts can't be a skill gem?
>>548991123Yeah I would be embarrased to be you spamming chat "pls help me beat act 1 boss" you absolute gaylord
>>548991258>what is the explanation for why shapeshifts can't be a skill gem?they'd need to give it a base damage instead of weapon scaling and they're too fucking lazy to do that, same reason they made all unarmed skills scale off quarterstaves in 0.3
>>548991208Trials of Chaos is also up there, original Ultimatum is also low tier but still not as bad as the 2 versionLab is utter dogshit and the only thing about it not abhorrent is Izaro, Delve or Heist are the exact same concepts done better
So what is the best to play Wolf (based) form with?Gemling?Druid looks like fucking ass
>>548990525uhh... anon? Chaos isnt THAT hard.Never pick donut. Always pick storm rune 1 so that you receive more storm rune offers later. Save storm rune 2/3 as a 'get out of jail free' card when offered two very bad modifiers. Otherwise just value pick. you can do it.>Source: farmed and carried chaos for most of 0.3
>>548991208lab is the original dark pattern>OMG THE LAB IS SO SHORT TODAY LOGIN!!
there should be an animation where if you overwater your plants they stun you and insert their tentacles into your character's orificesy/y
>>548990032Out of people I know who actually play PoE I don't know a single one who actually dislikes Lab. I knew some who just did it, but most enjoyed it for what it was. I've met some people that disliked it for adding ascendancies. I only know rmt'ers who liked Trial of Sekhemas. And if you go on Reddit the last trial is universally hated it seems
>unironic redditor
will jonatroon have a melty when 70% of players are using rolling magma in a one button build to clear maps?
>almost every ascendancy buffedYeah im not falling for that one again
>>548991494y
bro just wait for the good layout its a good mechanic tho
>>548991713Don't bother, it's a redditor who knows nothing more about the mechanic than OHHH LE WEARY TRABELER XD
>>548986287kek did they make LSpear bloodmage even better
Member when uber lab required you to do 6 map trials? Lol.
i actually have an insane lab runner (+700% movespeed immortal and onetaps izaro) but im not farming lab until its a good layoutheres your mechanic bro
>>548991830Not just "do 6" but do each of the six once.>it's another Trial of Piercing Truth
You could do all other content in poo2 without any ascendancy at all, they are fairly weak anyway
einhar has retired and now runs a brapbarn from the comfort of his encampment
>>548986927Bear form str stack titan or the new smith. I see real slam synergy here and the shapeshift warcry mechanic looks kewl
>>548992060trukegetting +3 instead of +2 on your amulet is more power than doing uber lab
So is there actually anything to gain by being in bear or wolf form?Or is it just the fucking D4 reskin to use ablilties that requires it
>>548992170reskin
>>548992015did people actually care about this? you ran into the trials frequently enough
>>548992170You get 10% increased armour in bear form, 1% move speed in wolf form and 10% gold find in wyvern (dragon) form.
>>548991713Lab is horrible. Don't know how anyone ever liked it.
>>548991713>>548992321Lab would be good if you fought Izaro once at the end and prepared for the fight the entire way without gay forced 1/3 pseudo fights.
>>548992321kys
>>548992291>10% gold find in wyvern (dragon) formWhen Kingsmarch gets ported we will all be Wyverns!
>>548992321I didn't know somebody existed that liked that shit
>>548992321Lab is beloved by people who say "still sane exile? ;)" at the end of every third sentence
>>548992284It was almost always a pain in the ass to get the last one you needed unless you used whatever that plebbit global was.
Quin69 really reacted for over 3 hours today before reacting to the reveal. What did I miss?
So they want the druid to be a fucking spellcaster + shapshifting combo retard?Also >Two spellcasted focused ascendanciesWhat is this fucking shit?
>The modifiers for "Bow Attacks fire X additional Arrows" on Bows have been disabled.It's over...
>>548992649Nothing much, from the sound of it.
You want the dragon? Take it. It's yours. But Druid? Druid I will tub to the ground. Perhaps the suffering of my fellow shitters will finally unclog something.
why on earth aren't the druid's ascendancy trees on the website. what are they afraid of
>>548992730HOLY BASED JONATHAN
>>548992730This is an effective buff for meleeMeleeGODS win again
>>548992770Why would anyone want the dragon, it looks like its skills are fucking assWill be the only playable one tho because they want you to use spells and swap in and out from the shift, and it probably scales with spell damage unlike wolf/bear
>>548992813https://poe2db.tw/us/Druid#DruidMarkdownI actually feel like the Bloodlines in 3.27 were designed with PoE 2 in mind, since so many ascendancies are good for 4-6 points.

>>548993576Assuming this is a genuine post/>I like Druid>I like combos>I like Vaal Synthesis IncursionThese are all reasonable.>I like focusing on monster tankiness over pack sizeMost rares still fall over dead near instantly, now there is just less to kill, and the rares will still fall over dead unless they are archnem level monsters and then dads will complain and they'll be nerfed. Idk I just feel like it was a way to nerf heralds value more then make rare enemies valuable.
what's the shittercope gunna be when everyone that isn't retarded is still oneshotting everything in the game
>>548994208oh mb the tree i was looking at was 15 pixels so i couldnt read that. yeah that node seems pretty good
>>548986331Surely GGG will make the same mistake twice in a row just trust
>>548994263ur not white
>>548994287"but the performance is so much better"
>>548994312It's not a mistake. They want new ascendancies(especially the one being heavily promoted) to be good and played a lot so they get a ton of feedback. Mark said Lightning Spear Amazon would be the most played build on the 0.2 stream for example. Tardathan thought it would be some sort of Bleed Ritualist IIRC.
I'll have fun regardless, I play with my friends and it's always a good time. Less enemies but tougher sounds better for party play so I'm happy.

>40% less mobs with 40% more HPthis is a horrible nerf to boneshatter warrior, and it wasn't that good to begin with...yup, 0.4 is a skip
soodruid is NOT gonna be opits gonna be clunky af to play right
>>548997198So slams are by definition tied to maces as a game mechanic like how shapeshifting is tied to talismans?
>>548997206The bottom is /poeg/.
>>548997256I'm /poeg/ and I'm a bottom
>>548997231Left.
>>548997239By definition? No. In reality? Yes.
reddit isnt happy
>>548997219I honestly might skip tooEndgame rework in 0.5 and 0.4 having the same boring endwork will not be enough for player retention at all
>>548996624the only mammals native to new zealand are bats. plus while bears can sprint over 35~ mph it's exactly that: a sprint, not a sustained chase or endurance pursuit.
To everyone upset about less monsters, they’ve stated they want options in the atlas to allow us to choose less mobs or more mobs while keeping loot drop amounts consistent. HUGE W.
>>548997027>A bear can't do a dog obstacle course.That is true but in fairness I've seen black bears climb trees and act like contortionist to reach animal feeders. Hope we get a unique talisman that makes us a moose or even a goat, when we sprint and the longer we spring the redder we get, and we have a collision based attack when running into an enemy.
>>548997302You're almost there, I believe in you.
>>548997393Okay, Tri.
>>548997407Post your spear slam titan clearing endgame. Oh wait, you can't. Disingenuous faggot.
Jonathan raped /pooigi/ farting at over 35mph
Whats fub and rue saying??
>>548997447I think it'll click if you reread a couple of times
>>548997498big shit
Super excited for 1.0. It’s going to be sick. By then it’ll be “for every 3 steps you take, take 5 steps back, white monsters now take 100% less damage for every 1 point of damage you do. The campaign is now 47 hours long. There is one monster in the map, good luck finding it, but it drops -10% more loot. All classes have the stuck in the mud mod, which grants 150% less movement speed, this is a buff.” Meanwhile, POE1 will get “650 more walls in maps.”
kinda wish they would have done the opposite, made the current change on the atlas tree
>>548997345>it's exactly that: a sprint, not a sustained chase or endurance pursuit.I mean wolves can't maintain their speed either, they are endurance hunters that sprint, not run 35+ consistently.
does anyone actually like combo based gameplay in ARPGS?
>>548997582And still no swords.
LA ROD NERFEDMONK NERFED
>>548997618yeah lr+la is fun
>>548997170Yes, they are. The alphas are the parents. The father is the de facto alpha male, retard. You misunderstood things to push reddit-tier equality nonsense.>https://www.livescience.com/animals/are-alpha-males-real>ut wildlife research biologist David Mech, who coined the term, never intended for "alpha male" to mean the sole leader of a pack. Instead, he described how an "alpha male" and "alpha female" pair rule their group, make the decisions and produce offspring.>>548997158stupid fucking faggot
>>548997618no
>>548997618To an extent sure. Stuff like "coat this small area with tar for 5% extra fire damage" is meh though.
>>548997618if every skill of a combo does good damage yesif only the combo does good damage no
>>548997530I accept your concession.
Isn't one of 1's most popular builds this league>make a tornado>fire projectiles into it to make them fork
rhoa mandatory patch btw
>>548997231Nah it will be based
>>548997712good take, unfortunately poe2 is the latter at least for the entire campaign
>>548997657>yeah every single concept around the term is wrong but like the guy did technically use itok
>>548997302that guy's being a fag but tbf talisman might have some good slams for titan
What a fucking garbage reveal.They should have just cancelled the league and gone on holiday early. Would have saved me the time I spent watching it.
>>548997798Retard, misconceptions don't mean something doesn't exist.
>>548997618I might be alone in this, but timing snipe and perfect strike for big damage was more enjoyable then any of the combos really.
>>548997740you don't need to do that to keep up general damage and clear, that's just for burst damage. my build has like 3 burst damage options but i don't do any of them because im not bossing
anyone else lurk poe2 g1?
>>548997884I enjoyed timing magma barrier. I don't know why they changed it the way they did.
>>548997847google ontology
>>548997959no, 1488 in 2 is relatively good since the huehue population is lower
>>548997968Poowunners complained about it not working like 1's
So the patch is literally just Druid and rehashed synthesis. 1 singular class and nothing else. The fuck have these retards been doing for 4 months
>>548997614the point is bears are lumbering about at any given time, even when hunting, and more to jonathan's point the bear has a distinct playstyle compared to the werewolf form and they chose it to be slower.
>>5489981142 months for one game is not enough it shows
>>548998114working on keepers of the flame
isnt this basically making PoE 2 farming more like Titanic Exile farming which is what people liked in PoE 1 anyway...?
Ok chat, enough about the last topic.Plant druid is on the table, and it's physical damage. How do you exploit this?
>>548997740wow, one entire combo for one entire build
>>548997618short snappy combos like warcry/slam or ed/cont are fun, combos where you press a bunch of garbage buttons so you can press your 1 good button every 4 seconds are tubbed
>>548998294>exploit
>>548998298even in a theoretical jonathanified build, you still would probably only do one combo
>>548998294There's nothing to exploit. Impale is clunky, bleed is better played by stacking flat elemental damage on an attack build. Poison sucks outside of Pathfinder. There is also no way to convert the damage and double-dip like in PoE.
>>548998252The lazy league with barely anything to do? They even double dipped with foulborns.
>>548997740most poe1 builds have a clear skill and then some way to use other skills to make that skill deal more damage when you need it. which mogs the absolute fuck out of jonathan's braindead mmo rotations in every conceivable way
>>548998116I concede that wolves are more agile but show me one video of a wolf doing a better tricep pushdowns and concede that they are more graceful.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6l7yai66Sko
>>548998114Synthesis without the soul.
>>548997618I like situational skills. Like AoE skills vs Single target, fire spells vs cold immune mobs and vice versa. I think combos could have a place vs bosses but it does get tedious vs white mobs. Thankfully I didnt find white mobs in PoE2 hard so it wasnt too bad.
Fuck the doomers, I'm gonna run pizza sticks and make it work
>>548998443>Poison sucks outside of Pathfinder.They did lose prolif, still have the best access to magnitude nodes though.
>>548998551stop trying to make poe 1 skills sound complex lmao>bro I use... Sniper's Mark and then I... shoot them with an arrow.... woahhhhhhhhno one actually thinks poe 1 gameplay is complex, it's the buildcrafting (which 99% of people don't do themselves btw) that makes it interesting
>>548998643>he's going to generate and spend charges to place his pizza sticks>his 10 second cooldown pizza stickshonestly hope it works out for you boss
>chatbraindead frog niggers
>atziri ascends from the blood>her staff is clipping through her head
>Ritual Sacrifice Stolen Modifier duration is 82-120 seconds from Gem level 1-20 (previously 15-19.75)>Temper weapon is still dog shit
>>548998727that's canon read the flavor text
>>548998684>stop describing poe1 builds accurately please it upsets meno
>>548997959I talk in it.
>>548994632this would honestly be worth destroying an entire civilization for
>>548998786>>bro I use... Sniper's Mark and then I... shoot them with an arrow.... woahhhhhhhh
>>548998551>most poe1 builds have [0-1 buttons to press, 1-2 travel skills, 1-2 marks/curses, and fill the rest of the slots with auras]ftfy
>>548998116The reality is it's just more archetypes ripped from Diablo 2. The werewolf and the werebear had the same thing going on. The bear in PoE 2 even has Armageddon as its special skill which was used in Fire Claw Werebear builds in D2. A lot of you guys are just ARPG newfags and don't pick up on this stuff.>>548998672The prolif was worse than Herald of Plague's and I saw PF builds on Poe.ninja that would still use HoP.
>>548998684stop trying to make poe 2 skills sound complex lmao>bro I use... Lightning Rod and then I... shoot them with an arrow.... woahhhhhhhhno one actually thinks poe 2 gameplay is complex, it's the buildcrafting (which 99% of people don't do themselves btw) that makes it interesting
>>548998418but that does for pretty much every build, as opposed to it being in one in 1. tornado is also just for burst damage, the combo isn't required for the build to work
>>548998893as opposed to having three buttons that you press in a rigid sequence every time you want to kill anything
>>548998715if I generate charges fast enough to put down more totems the cooldown shouldn't matter, no?or are cooldowns not per totem but character-wide?
watch them give utter dogshit cosmetics since its a free weekend and not challenge rewards just watch
>>548998927TRVKE>>548998684PVKE
you guys were right this is big poopit's like sekhema but every facet of it is lamer
Anyone who has bought the awakened precursor supporter pack, does the body armor have the option to not have the swirling orb in your chest?
who the fuck selfcasts curses/marks
>>548999014yeah should work that way actually, generating enough charges/placing enough totems for it to not feel rough as guts is going to be pretty hard though
>>548998927yeah, PoE 2 and PoE 1 are the same :)
>>548999174>can slow the enemy within 4m of you>or you can slow the enemy from across the screen>also you can do both if you really want to
>>548998980Also the build he's talking about(I'm assuming KB) has Tornado paired with spellslinger and doesn't even require you to press a button.
>I want staves to be the more offensive oriented caster weapon>that's why I nerfed the + to gem levels they can roll?
when is poe adding sexit's 2025 ggg shouldn't be outsmarted by korean gachas
>>548999393wat
>>548999415I have no idea what the fuck they were talking about. Doubled damage mods is good, but the bigger problem was that you can get more +spell levels out of Wand+Focus...which they acknowledge and apparently they made it even worse?
>>548998563how much realism niGGGer incorporates into how the wolf and bear plays is mostly irrelevant. what's important is the gameplay>>548998894I'm well aware the druid class in poe2 is pretty much directly ripped from d2: lod. I know because I played that game for over 9 years, but that tidbit of information was irrelevant.
>>548999526Adding the +3 levels essence for foci is one of the dumbest things they've ever done. I just checked the patch notes and it's still in the game? Why does a foci give better offense and defense? There is no real choice here.
Can't believe people are "dissapointed" with today's revealWhat the actual fuck.There's at least 3 new supporter packs, a new class, two new ascendacies, 20+ new skills, 250 passive tree nodes, 30+ new supports, 11 new uniques, 9 new lineage supports, delirium changes, a new league atlas tree, a whole new league mechanic with new crafting options, new bosses, and a new pinnacle boss. Rebalance of countless uniques, rebalance of lineage gems, rebalance of 90 skills, rebalance and rework of almost all ascendancies.There is more content in this early access update than majority of other games get in 5 or more updates combined. The potentinal for new builds is insane.Sure, endgame isn't changing much, but I'd rather have them cook than get something unfinished.I will play the shit out of this. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
pleaseplease just phaseim begging you
The reality of the situation is that even though there are some arguably cool things to play with in 0.4, the endgame is still the same (fucking awful garbage) and so I won't be playing and neither will anyone else
why are people so pissed off at +levels anyway, it's fine in Diablo and Grim Yawn and it's not like people want just +level, they want crit damage and increased damage tooidgi
How were today's stream numbers compared to 0.3 and 0.2?
>>548999956the endgame is worse actually because crafting is neutered
>>548999956TRVTHNVKE
Normally I'd agree with endgame being bad but new incursionthesis is basically the equivalent of Delve or Sanctum, you're going to be spending large amounts of your endgame time in the temple anyway and if you can juice it high enough, it might be entertaining. Abyss could get pretty dangerous.
>>548999972I don't have a problem with it, I just think a Staff should give +levels than a wand and focus by a decent amount. I don't know exactly how much but it should probably at least be 1.5x as good offensively as a wand and focus.
>>548999254NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHYYYYYYYYYYYY
>>549000073>and if you can juice it high enough, it might be entertaining.thats what everyone thought about breach and you saw how that one turned outfingers crossed ggg learnd from their mistakes but everything hinging on the league mechanic is not good
>>548999972Because it's basically a mandatory stat even for attack builds which is just retarded and kills itemization. Also, a staff should have more offensive capabilities than a wand and a focus that also gives you like 300 plus flat ES. It's basic game balance.
>>548986927nothing, gonna skip this one and keep playing poo1 ssfrendgame in 2 without the towers is dead boring
>>549000145holy tub that's horrible
>let's put LE BOOBS LE, UNCENSORED BOOBS THREE TIMES into the reveal >no new content>shitty class that should have been in a over a year ago>BUT DID YOU SEE LE BOOBAS>no end game>atrocious campaign leveling AGAIN>even more nerfs >BUT LE BOOBAS DID YOU SEEEggg is so fucking pathetic actually it's fucking laughable. tencent needs to pull the plug on these fucking hacks
>>548998803una, alva, or atziri bathwater mtx?
>>549000346The Druid reveal trailer was the hardest I've cringed while watching anything PoE-related.
>>549000346Putting Atziri's fat ass and multi-milkers all over the advertising is probably the only thing Tencent actually approves of.
>>549000373I've never bought any cosmetics though I have a lot of stash tabs. For a while I didn't know the supporter packs just give you as many coins as you would get buying them straight up. I also don't care about or use cosmetics though, most of them are just clutter.
>>549000346worked on me i don't even know what's in the update i've been gooning to atziri for the last 10 hours
I'm not sure if this has been discussed or clarified anywhere, but the new Locus of Corruption in 0.4 doesn't work the same as in PoE1. They said it can only be applied to corrupted items, in order to corrupt it again. But I don't believe visually there was any indicator that the item had been double corrupted outside of having a 2nd enchant (in the example clip).So the questions are: can you use a Locus of Corruption on an item that has already had a Locus used on it before (meaning you can continually corrupt an item until it poofs)? And if not, there may be a problem with brown people and chinks listing their failed double corrupts for trade, attempting to lure buyers in that think the item is only single corrupted (assuming there is no way to tell if the corrupt had a regular outcome)
>>549000402unlikely because Mao said porn is degenerate
>>549000346it's pathetic but it works on all the retarded thirdies
>>549000514>And if not, there may be a problem with brown people and chinks listing their failed double corrupts for trade,you either get a 2nd mod or it gets deleted
>>549000514Double corrupted items say 'twice corrupted' in red where 'corrupted' was. Check the vod.
>The Walker of the Wilds Keystone has been removed from the passive tree and its effects have been moved onto a newly added Lineage Support.We finally get something allows you to bypass the cancer called mana on elemental attack builds and it's all, but removed from the game one patch later. Thanks, niGGGers.
I've just started playing. I want to summon powered up raise zombie things with power charges but I dont know how the fuck to get Power Charges. How do I do that?
>>549000804niGGGers can't stand any build having good mana sustain
>>549000804that allows*
>he is a jingakh
>>549000346Needed more Druid butt.
>>549000836You want to summon them until you realize 10s into playing zombied that they are so slow with movement/attacks everything that you want to uninstall game. Anon look for ANY other spell than zombos
>>549000258isn't increased physical damage mandatory for attack builds too?
>>549000804Just wait 5 seconds after killing a pack. Are you really that impatient? If you have the time to play video games you have the time to wait for your mana to regenerate. No need to hurry, its only pixels.
>>549000145it was already skunked from needing 3 charges to raise a totem. the shit you have underlined is just the cherry on the shit sundae
>reduce pack size>ZERO movement buffs >ZERO changes to mas being bigger than the fucking Earth itselfyou excited to walk around empty maps? KEK!
>>549000836Resonance + Magma Barrier
>250 new passives but 0 life nodes>If you dont play es you basically gimp yourself by 75%Why are people at GGG so retarded
>>549001030Zombies or not, I'm looking through the keyword worst and there seem to be 50,000 different ways to generate an extra power charge, or not use one up, or make a power charge more efficient, but I cant fucking find anything that makes even 1 in the first place
>>548994632Bros, she's so ugly...
>>549001127Anything less...specific?
>>549000346They really expect furries and coomers to carry this patch
>>549001107you realize sprint is a thing right?
>>549001202None of my furfag friends have shown any extra interest in the game even after showing them the trailer. Im still the only one.
>>549001197Sure, just get a corpse and use Profane Ritual. Or Power Siphon on an almost dead enemy. What, you want to get Power Charges in bosses? Oh...yeah, no, not really, Resonance is the best way.
guys did they add any blood magic spells for this new poo2 league????i will return if there are spells like exsanguinate ect
think i just nutted a bit
>>549001393Wow, it's...every poe1 clip ever.
>>549001427that's what poo2 looks like as well but even worse
>>549001096Nah charges are solve-able, but I can't fix the game saying flat out no pizza sticks
>>549001490Still weird that youre proud of it.

>>549002147but they added nothing
where is tota?where is endgame rework?where is act 5?where is act 6?where are swords?are they still brewing in the tub?
They're going to buff density by 60% after reddit gets through with them.
>>549002324Ask again later
This is what 'nothing' looks like.
Am I the only one that opened the patch notes and CTRL+F'd for marauder/mace buffs only to see 3 completely insignificant changes. I've been skipping each league until they make maces not blow complete ass or when they add axes+swords
>>5490023242027 when 1.0 releases
>>549002337non-rares don't drop anything anyway, what does it matter
atziri atziri
Just hit act 6, feeling cozy with the new setup for now. here's the current build:https://pobb.in/Lgh2FB-h_ZCAsorta hodgepodge between leech, shield stuff, physical, etc. Really excited to hit 67 so I can switch to Bringer of Rain.This is also how big the AoE is for now at max stacks.
>>549002324they're busy listening to retarded streamer demands and making the game worse
>>549002379yep
PLEASE IS THERE ANY BLOOD SPELLS IN THE GAME NOW??? I WANT TO RP AS AN ACTUAL BLOOD MAGE NOT A FUCKING MAGE THAT USES BLOOD AS A RESOURCE!!!!
>>549002379
>>549002379Nothing happened

>>548979794Maybe a post in one of these threads but I had to take my headphones off bc there was a pulse
>>549002709>>549002732RAHHHHHHHH IVE WAITED SINCE RELEASE TO COME BACK BUT I REFUSE TO RETURN WITHOUT AT LEAST 1 REAL FUCKING BLOOD MAGIC SPELL!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK THE VAAL ARE OBSESSED WITH BLOOD HOW IS THERE NO BLOOD SPELLS???????????????????????????????
is we gettin blood spells in 0.poo
>>549002881I'm upset too. I'll play Blood Mage again as soon as they add proper blood spells and not a moment sooner.
tablets for individual maps sucksss so hard..I want towers back.... one click and 50 maps juiced, the dream...
>>549002585>Gladiator ascendancy>Intend to use the Gladiator helmet that prevents body armorholy kino..
When you guys ask for an endgame rework, what exactly do you want?
Last Lament Lich was completely unnerfed except for the slight hit to movement penalty. I sincerely don't get all the people dooming about one button builds lol
>>549003025im not going to design the game for you tub-boy
cool patch faggots
>>549003025I'm fine with how they've been progressing it, particularly I like them adding stuff like rarifying tablets to clearing Arbiter, I want good rewards for pushing the pinnacle boss so there's more of an incentive to fight them earlier rather than after farming them to non-threatening levels.
>>549002379>the last of the druidsMore like the last of 0.1 content (a year later)
>>549003025that is your job to figure out, zaccie
>>549003070I'm a genuinely curious newfag, what else is there to do other than load into a map, kill shit, and leave?
>all that time and effort pissed away on retarded combos
>game out for 1 year>nothing of substance got released>say on interview:>"we didn't know it would take THIS much work to get to releasethey are clueless as fuck, aren't they? how did they ship poe1? did the bald savant really constantly whip these faggots into shape, and now that he's gone they are just a bunch of headless chickens?
>>549003025Towers with tablets
Shan't be playing until 1.0 when they finally cave and untub the game from combos and consume 3 charges to summon a totem and shit.
>>549003203my wishlist to try this dogshit game again:>map selection>possibly removal of the endless atlas that forces its shit layouts on you>unified atlas tree where selecting a mechanic is a tradeoff>ways to force mechanics onto your maps>better and more rewarding endgame bosses>better atlas progression/unlocks
>here's a build enabling unique with a retarded build crippling downside>but you can foulborn it to remove the bad modSo much retardation in the reveal.
>>549003332you do realize that the only thing jonathan hates more than being wrong is admitting to being wrong, right?removal of the "action combat" (lol) woud be him admitting to being wrong

>>549003071full disclosure: I did not ultimately know where this file I personally found was stored. I used a shortcut button and I should feel ashamed as should all of us who haven't done BG3 Honor mode yet.I am at LVl 8 furthest ever. Pathfinder, made it to the end of the 1st campaign on Hard.
>>549003712Theres literally more content in the new vaal league mechanic then full ARPG games released in the last 1/2 and all their updates.And people are still complaining. Jesus.And everyone complaining about "no end game changes." When told. "We need more time to cook, it will come out in 0.5.0."This is GGG, we've seen them TRANSFORM end game multiple times in poe1, holy shit let them cook for a few more months. We don't want some half assed half chewed bad mechanics. Let them cook it longer if they think it needs to be cooked longer.0.5.0 already sounds like it's going to packed full of new content, we'll probably be getting swords or axes as well. Holy crap.
I don't get why they don't just run an end-of-league event with no rarity to try out in production what it's likeNerds will happily hop in and betatest it for them
>>549003712The big focus this patch is actually the league mechanic. It's meant to be juiced to harder content. Everyone is missing the point. It's going to be the thing that ties us over until 0.5
is like 3/4ths of this thread AI chatbots or some shitgrim

>>549003203i think they should add extra campaign difficulties instead of mapsand each difficulty would add extra areas and shit but the first playthroughs would go fasterand the atlas tree was a mechanic from level 1 which modified the kinds of drops you get

>>549003894how can you tell?
>>549003712I'm disappointed.The druid was announced near completion before the last league dropped. So it kind of seems like less work went into this season than last. Where's the sorc or monk 3rd ascendency.250 new nodes is nice and all, but can we finish the classes that have been in the game for almost a year now?The new vaal league mechanic is the antithesis of what made abyss so enjoyable. You're going to have to stop, build a map, and run through. It sounds cool, but when you're running 2 minute maps, this is probably going to be a huge time sink.Then you have 40% reduction of monsters in high tier maps!? This is a massive indirect need to builds that do better with monster quantity, such as ed/contagion, leech builds, mana on kill, etc. And the reason for it makes me hate it more... because the game is unoptimized.Then no endgame changes. Damn. Come on. I'm bored mapping after 2 6 hour sessions. Then you're gonna tack on the 40% reduced monsters... now it's really gonna blow. This needs to be a priority because it's what makes this game only last two weeks for me.Druid looks cool as hell, but i have a feeling it's going to underperform in both defensives and clear speed.
>>549002638bodied that sick freak
>549003712>got no replies the first time so he posted the reddit post again fucking loser
>>549003894dead internet
>>549003953there's the obvious reddit copypastasand then there's the completely nonsensical shit
>>549003961I'm extremely butthurt about no third ascendancy for Monk. At least the Chayula number changes look overtuned.
>>549004057tubbed T R V K E retard
Can someone explain something to me. 40% reduced number of monsters. 40% more loot. But it isn't really 40% reduced monsters it is 29% reduced. They said 40% but it is only 29%. I was just reading the previous threads at work and came across this. Maybe it is me being a retard or being baited but I don't get that.
>>549003269They are just lying a lot. Jonathan is a lying piece of shit. 95% of MTX is still missing. Why did they delay Poe2 launch for 2 weeks? Just to align with christmas season. EA was supposed to be just a couple weeks. Then 3-6 months. Then it was "promised before 2025" Now this nigger is talking about "hopefully before 2026".Chris is the same lying piece of shit. "Poe2 before D4 is a matter of personal pride". Well easy to say that when you have none you bald fucking retard.
>>549004196what does it matter?
>>549003025Infinite Atlas is just aimless right now desu. The incentives for beating pinnacles also don’t feel that impactful as something like getting Watchstones because the atlas trees are just meh.
>>549003894Ice cream? I love ice cream!
>>549003978Pathfinder is british football
>>549004231go post this in official forms if you're so brave
>>549004271imo need like 2 more pinnacles on arbiter tier that, as you kill them, grant more terraforming abilitiese.g. kill arbiter of ash, get the ability to change forest/jugnle biome maps to desert maps, or set shit on fireor kill arbiter of frost, same deal but water/cold climatesmaybe throw in some influence type shit to maps and items
>>549004338This is funny to me bc although I played this title a lot and in hard core, I don't game except bg3 and sc for a long time. In SC there is a lot of animated emotion about the other Chris., super lol.
>>549004249are you asking why it matters if 40 != 29
>>548980626is atziri just a bad copy of andi?
Why cant they make Gemling available to all classes? It feels like the most "all-purpose" general ascension that benefits every single build, but it's stuck on the Mercenary starting point so wtf.
Have they ever touched on why we dont have dot multiplier or ailment magnitude on at least weapons?
so true! Here's your reddit gold!
keep saying it
>>549004797atziri was a GOOD copy of andynot really feeling the PoE2 iteration for some reason
>>549004971Your knowledge of existing systems from PoE is unfair to new players.
>>548980089this is fake btw, retards
>>549005101Maybe designing a single player hack and slash game as if it were a pvp game was a mistake
>>549005352Cope.
>>549005352still true though
>>549005414not at all, I hate how fat mark and jonatroon are shitting up poo2.
>>549004629How many eggs did you ate today?
Light Pattern Game Studio will save us.
>>549005482Mark is a really nice guy, I don't know how anybody could have hate in their heart for him.
>>549002718I have no idea what I'm supposed to be at at this point, but I'm getting through>>549003002That was pretty much the plan. I've always loved how the Bringer of Rain looked and how it had 3 built-in supports, so I can't resist giving it a real try.
>>548985928poe1 is stealing resources from the endgameI don't see why they don't just put a skeleton crew on poe1 at least until poe2 is in 1.0. It's not like the poo1 crowd is capable of enjoying anything anyways.
>>549005673>I don't see why they don't just put a skeleton crew on poe1they do, they literally said a couple years back that poe1 development has been done by 8 people for awhileapparently those 8 people are also the pillars holding up poe2 development so idk what the fuck is wrong with ggg
>>549005628True, GGG is a story of how one peasant kept the studio afloat while the founders shit away their advantage due to the cardinal sins.Imagine doing so much for a company knowing you're still getting paid a salary ... pathetic.
>>549005628mark is the no fun allowed guy btw. he hates headhunter and everything about endgame and thinks the entire game should be racing to level 100 and then rerolling and doing it again but on another ascendancy (he added ascendancies in the game)
>>549005673>I don't see why they don't just put a skeleton crew on poe1 They've already done that, don't you see Keepers?It's not a manpower problem they just fuck around in the office all day playing videogames (NOT their own games) instead of working
>>438810818:O
>>549005798>Mark has strong feelings about balance and game designWhat an awful person. I've changed my mind, I'll go to hating him immediately.
>>549005673Poopy Deuce has been in development for almost 8 years, anon. Stop trying to scapegoat PoE Won.
>>549004792I'm asking because it doesn't matter sperg.
>>549005737https://clips.twitch.tv/CrispyClearCobblerSeemsGood-xw0EcXgz_xZwXh_f
>>549005815>>549005737Didn't they say they are now on a swapping back and forth thing for most of the developers in the office now that they're trying to stay on the 2-month alternating cadence?
>>549006007>Crispy Clear Cobbler Seems GoodSounds like something a fat retard would say, checks out.
>>549006014I'm looking at what they're delivering, bot what they're sayingKeepers absolutely did not have more than a week of work put in it
>>549006014Mark said they basically move people around at whim depending on what is needed but that seems chaotic as fuck and i assume there's a team on both sides
>>549006007>that PoE Mobile gameplay at the endThis studio has been and still is being mismanaged.
>>549005737>idk what the fuck is wrong with gggLack of talents. They're recruting
/ourguy/ has spoken.
>>549006014they should just go to the 8 people on poe1 plan cause that seemed to work better then whatever the fuck they're doing now
>>549006248Australia took all talented people from New Zealand.
PoE2 really is the D3'ification of PoE. Whenever they show things they've invented it really feels like explicit playstyles they've constructed like "this is your combo this is the thing you do". They once said they were against set items because they constrained your gear and options but skills now feel like set skills.
>>549005628mark is the bigger nigger out of the two. jonatroon is just an insufferable cunt and also the main poe2 guy so he gets a lot of hate by default even though he is the fun first guy.mark is likeable and much more charismatic because he can admit fault and talks like a retarded redditor but he is the main culprit behind all the shitty end game, balance, skill gems etc. mark is the one that deserves the most hate yet poopg and rebbitors somehow are enthralled by this fat fuck.
0.4 did this
>>549006671no, in 0.3.1 is where everything started going wrong
fucking cloudflare
Alright so what we'll have is 2 weeks of panic patching because retention numbers are dogshit followed by the classic NZ 50 day xmas vacation meaning the next PoE1 patch will be thrown together in a week, even lower effort than 3.27
this is poe1s fault
>looking at alternatives for this tub league>find out d3/4reflection closed shop at the start of the monthThe whole genre is doomed
>>549006794poe is a good game that had steady growth and a somewhat happy playerbase.poo2 is a dogshit game without an identity, without a vision and without a fanbase. only dad gamers and retards play it (see: talkativetranny)yet it is somehow poe1's fault?

>>549006779>2 weeks of panic patching GGG is starting Christmas vacation the day after the patch drops
why exactly does poo2 even exist? is it because the grey retard is having a midlife crisis and wants to make a game that's "good" by classic IGN metrics (looks good, doesn't play well), rather than keep poe1 strong and healthy?

I don't get the negativity regarding 0.4After the live-stream I was super hyped, opened reddit and now I'm wondering why there are so many posts bashing 0.4. I get that endgame changes aren't as big as expected (no atlas revamp, tota, etc). But isn't the endgame improved a lot by the new league mechanic?For me the league mechanic is the promised endgame content. It sounds pretty versatile (endgame crafting with double corruption, uber boss drops, selfcorruption, unique-corruptions, ...) and scalable. Honestly it's a lot bigger than I expected.Plus we have a lot of new stuff and changes that I'm really looking forward to:Sick Druid GameplayMore Uniques and Unique Reworks that hopefully make them more endgame viableFix for Waystones (no Delirium Fog/less Density/...)Tablet Buffs with 4 ModsRevelation of Content after reaching Checkpoints in MapsLess Mobs in T15 Maps but higher difficulty/increased rewards to compensate250 New Passive Tree Points (slight ES nerfs in the tree, changes in other parts of the tree not only STR/INT)Staff vs Wand + Foci Balancing with Staff being the more offensive option, Weapon Implicit RebalancingPerformance improvementsI think those are great changes. Especially when you consider they are the base for further improvements in 0.5. Plus Jonathan said he was planning to remove Rarity from items in the future.The only thing I'm worried about is Homogenising being removed and changes to the Rune system. Homogenising was literally the omen that made crafting affordable for casuals. I'm really wondering how they will compensate for that. On the other hand Jonathan said he likes the Perfect/Greater/Normal Currency separation which I totally agree on. So maybe there will be other ways to use them without combining them with Homogenising.Are people overreacting or did I get something wrong?

>>549007602i don't even know what you are trying to say here.who's the emperor here? jonathan? poop2? ggg?
>>549007602>after 2 released?
It's the biggest piece of dog shit
>>549006794>Less Mobs in T15 Maps but higher difficultythis just ruins some builds, like boneshatter warrior that relies on lots of mobs to trigger shockwaves, and it wasn't that good in the first placeutter dogshit changeand the endgame worldmap is still dead boring without towers
Not everyone wants to play Fubgun's cookie clicker builds for 1 week for "divines per hour" and logout in 2 weeks. Everyone should have an opportunity to play the way they want. Even though there are not many changes to endgame many people are happy with the changes.I love new changes to density. Maybe they will need to tune it a little, but this is the right direction. I am happy that GGG doubles down on their vision and I am here to enjoy it.PoE2 is very popular and now many ARPG players need to understand that many people want to play something with meaning. There is no action in ARPG if you play LA Deadeye, its just Vampire Survivors with better graphics. Many people don't need to play best build for "30 divines per hour", many people don't even think about "divines per hour".

>>549007678poe 1 was the king of the market, it isn't any more. there was nothing wrong with 3.26 or 3.27, people just see the game for what it is now.
>>549006538You sound like a mad faggot. Jonno = chinkdom and a China first mentality. I don't play games made by or for bug people, therefore I don't play poo2, get it yet roach?

>every opinion I don't like is reddit!!
>>549007939why do you suppose it isn't the king anymore? do you think it has to do with it actually not being that good, or does it have to do with ggg systematically pulling support, cutting content and lengthening the league cycle times on poe1, just to prop up their failed frankenstein of a game that is poo2?if poo2 never got made, and poe1 had stable 3 month league support at the same quality they had achieved during the 3.9-3.13 era, what do you think where we would be right now?instead the studio heads dropped into the classical midlife crisis hole and said "ANYTHING I DID UP UNTIL NOW IS ACTUALLY DOGSHIT, HOLD MY BEER WHILE I MAKE SOMETHING ACTUALLY GOOD" which ended up as a colossal failure (to noones surprise)
