Your absurd defiance ends here, tubling.
Chumbawumba wonPoop 2 lost
This tub is an illusion exile
is Varashta fun?
>>579803173anon do you think tub posting will seeps into in game? What if tub posting never ends?
Ey Jonathan, tub it up.
787Prada just said live on stream, POE2 is a superior game.
Why... are you so in love with Tub?
tfw no boyfriend to play 0.5.5 with
>>579804810(you) now fuck off tranny
tubular
>>579804915(you) now fuck off tubby
A tub is the most devious trap of them all..
comparison is the thief of joy
going to play totems in 0.5.5how do they work? if i deploy a totem does it spend my mana to cast the spells?
>>579804915I'm not a tranny. I'm gay.
>>579805364idk, I just remember watching waggle do like 50+ attempts on story mode arbiter because his totems would die instantly.They seem shit as a league starter.
>dead thread>dead game>just one severely autistic virgin posting "tub" references and ritualposts over and over
it's being R E D E F I N E D
>This tub has the power we need... fill it and you shall have everything I promisedNo poops this time, I'll fill this tub myself!...Oriana! Open the tub! Release the poop! Give me what you promised!>I think not. I expected so much more from you.>Since you are too weak to do the job, I'll find someone who can.You manipulative whore! How dare you abandon me. After all I've given you?
For those who ascend too quickly, the tub is inevitable.
I'm basically going to live in the Trial of Chaos over the next few months.
>>579805526There's not wrong with being gay, but just don't be a nigger faggot, alright off you go.
>>579805959speedrunning eos
>>579790968I repeat. niggers tongue my anus
can't think of anything fun to play in 0.5.5skip it isthanks for reading my blog post
What are some builds where you can just start the skill as soon as you get the right level gem, where the gem is very low level, don't have gpu-ass-eating fire effects, and you don't have to swap to a different skill or respec ever?
>>579807073cluster grenade
>>579807073corrupting cry warbringer
>>579806984play this
>>579807073righteous fire. act 2 nigger
>>579807073summon raging spirit
>>579807164>does less damage than auto attack
>>579807982it's an aoe retard. it's supposed to do less damage
>>579804628cluster jewels
>>579808307ITS BRANCHING EXILE
>>579808232is poo2 supposed to feel like shit too
>>579807162someone keeps shilling that build here maybe I will give it a shot but isn't that the one where you just bang on your shield forever?
>>579809265no its the one where you yell forever
>>579808470how can you still be bad at the game after 5 leagues?
>can't bind more than 13 abilitiesreally nigga
Fuck I'm giong to end up playing Varashta again aren't IfuckFUCK
>played raven staff lich so much last league i forgot i started supporting fire tacticiani think my memory is starting to go, builds for this feel?
>>579808232it costs mana and time to use, it's supposed to do more damage.
every spell build tending towards coc is so fucking gay. coc is better as a battlemage type of archetype like in poe1.
>>579809775How do you fix spellcasting so that cast on ___ and Comet aren't in every single build?Hard mode, do so in a way which keeps cast on ___ viable for specific builds.
>jonathan gives us the greatest arpg in the history of the genre>poeggers: i hate this
>>579809634>raven staffHow was it? I never got around to it but it looked fun.
>>579810406it should only work for attacks, and they can add other spirit options for casters. maybe that's the kind of thing they can change when they add more spellblade/battlemage type of classes like templar or shadow.
>>579802479This... game... is...DOOMED
>>579810610no, dota is doomed
>>579810406feels like a nonissue once you factor in the mana cost for spam a million comets a second
Predict the level of flopping we're witnessing tomorrow.Also reminder to delete your SteamDB account.
>>579810654dota is a game that can ever die
>>579810406selfcasted just needs more baseline...everythinglike why doesnt selfcast comet explode into a bunch of shards than chain explode like magma orb and leave a billion ice shards on the ground while cast on x comet is just one aoe
>>579810729it's going to beat allflop in both peak and retention
meta gems were a mistake
>>579810521expensive because staff loses a lot of gem levels compared with other weapons, but fun once you get it going. no satisfying pops like occultist though.
>>579810729>Also reminder to delete your SteamDB account.y tho
>>579811402NTA, heard it got bought by Nexusmods.
everyone is league starting my gemling twister which was a gamble in 0.5 that paid off biglyI'm doing stupid martial artist shit this time since I never had a monk mapper
https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/s/aaOoP4z85f
>>579805526how can u not have a bf when you homos have it so easy.
cast on poop
autocasts when player is within 15m of a tub or tub like object
jonathan appearing sucks all your dps down the train
So I did a campaign run through in preparation for the first time since 0.1 and the only real difference to me is that the game is much easier now. Which I guess is an improvement?
>>579812007you can play gemling anything, it's not much of a gamble.
>>579812087Incredibly based, but also>not using old redditActual brain damage.
I'm going twister gemlingYes that's right it's time to go mega giga meta faggotWhich day will I quit the league?
>>579815621you can default reddit to old without the old.reddit.com url using RES. us real redditors do that, you're just a larper
well this grind sucks
>farm 53 omen of lights>literally do nothing with themi don't know why i'm like this. it's currency. i should use it for something, but i just hoard it. i hoard everything. i'll sell, stuff like gear, but then i just hoard those currencies too. i wish i wasn't so cheap.
>>579815887just don't do that one why are you even considering lab grind?

Do you think if I made my name include the word Tubathan I'd get a forced name change?
>>579816651I wouldn't mind it as much if it wasn't all the same style, I'm guessing they don't gen it themselves and it's whatever the current popular free online shit creates.

I've never played any of the shapeshifting builds other than using wyvern to generate charges for a few levels. Anything good that you can league start?

Hello. Tourist here. Just saw Sodapoppin's video. What is the tub posting about?
Y'all subscribed to Spud the King, right?
>>579819512resident schizo

Wait? It's today?
>>579821587HELL YEAH
>>579821587What did you think they meant by "next week" when they announced it last week?

>>579821763>>579821770ah good, I can get somewhere then
If wildwood wisp scaling behaves even close to how it does in PoE1 then this will be the definitive loot kino league.
Dear diary, I won’t be playing 0.5.5. You must restrain yourself, remember the pen is mightier than the sword.
>>579821206I was watching a toad video and the guy says "for lower budgets, you can get this up and rolling for a couple hundred divs" so I'm assuming either he's retarded or this isn't a starter
>>579821909I think it wont be as generically good as in affliction, however it will be exceptionally good when combined with some content. Cleansed maps shit out currencies, especially the big loot pinata crawlers, juicing those maps up will be very rewarding
>>579821972it requires a lineage support gem, so you can take a wild guess on how good of a starter it is.
>>579821972You have to remember most """content creators""" RMT thousands of divs and buy shit without thinking, they don't play with 20ex gear so they don't know if the build works with it
>>579821909>hyperinflation league
>>579821972What toad video? Are you watching a guide made 1 month into the league and complaining it contains a mageblood?
>>579822431Everyone should instantly close and report any build guide that is using a mageblood.
>>579822431I literally quoted what he said retard, there was no mageblood
Have they said anything about dealing with '+n to melee/projectile/whatever skills'?
>>579822636Yeah, couple hundred divs is low budget a month into the leagueSome simple mathsAssume 400 divs, and that you make 10 div per hourThats 40 hours in a month, or 10 hours per week, slightly more than 1 hour per day. If you dont have 400 divs into a month i really dont know what the fuck you are doing
>>579822709lollmao
morning tubbywubbies saars!I hope you are ready for the needful event tonight!don't forget to empty your tub to make room for the biggliest event in poop2 history!it's one of their biggest patches yet!
>>579822428Eh, it will be balanced out by sacred blossoms. If wildwood lets you gigaprint these things will go through the roof and if mark is right about his "1 per 5 maps" claim they will be easy to farm.
>>579822826>starter>1 month into the leagueyou really are a fucking moron
>>579823087Thats why I asked you what fucking toad video, obviously its retarded if he presents a league starter as needing a couple hundred divs, but I will always assume anons are retarded before I assume build makers are retarded
How fucked am I?
ninja's going to be over 30% mercs on start
i'm thinkin infernalist plants
what if whirling assault but gemling
>>579823796gemling will probably work with any build
the only reason i'm considering playing 0.5.5 is for the challenge totem which tells me i should absolutely not play
Bro I fucking LOVE poe2! I can play ughh... the.. ughh.. the build with the.. with the b-bow! Anyway I LOVE poe2! Such a great game!
Predict the gemling playrate week 1
>>579824054Seethe harder, nigger.

>>579824226Go ahead, explain the joke (you won't).
>>579824269Explaining the joke always makes it funnier! I can't imagine knowing you irl. What a sad, stupid cunt.
>>579824140Was Ordained really that good or was it a new shiny toy?
>>579824341So fucking predictable. The "joke" was that PoE2 has no other builds than bows, because you didn't play the game past 0.1. Then you got BTFO and now you're seething.
>>579824397Its like the rakiatas dance of spears
>>579824418Cope and seethe however you wish dumbo. The joke is pretty self explanatory, I don't know how much of a stupid person you have to be to miss it.

>>579825117that's from poe1 you can encounter random hideout just from mapping as well also you can unlock other hideouts in poe2 hopefully ggg will port hideouts soon
>>579825849i don't understand why they made the hideouts in poe2 so fucking small. i'm not buying a hideout jonathan.
>>579805959Who is this cute little lesbian and how tight is her pussy?
>>579825947autists will make the most optimal hideout setup for mapping anyway

>>579826182That's not me
>competitive raiding
>>579806984based. I'm skipping 0.5.5 as well because no point in playing
>>579826425>because no point in playinghaving fun is the point
>>579825849Are there any random hideout from mapping get really cool poe2 hideout? I dunno, I haven't do mapping since 0.1
>>579826551Dont think so. You find random hideouts on the atlas, you should remember those, its very small maps. But you unlock all of them pretty quickly. Boss arenas exist as hideouts but you need to pay for them with real money
good morning frens whos hyped for the hyperbolic juicing league? i certainly am
>>579826603I saw someone with cosmic floor for hideout that is pretty cool, is that paid skin?
>competitive raiding is... le bad!>speedtroon racing is... le good!fucking poopootroons are irredeemable subhumans
>>579826736Thats a PoE 1 thing im pretty sure, i believe you pay for it yes
>>579826726Hyped as fuck. I've been wanting a deterministic way to spawn the wildwoods for over 2 years now. Pairing it with modern PoE2 loot is going to be giga kino. I still need to decide on a build though.
>>579826736https://www.pathofexile.com/shop/category/hideout?search=celestial%20nebulaThis one?
why is everyone pretending like this is a real league and act like it's not going to die in under one week?
>>579826901Why are you so adamantly against having fun for a week?
>>579826551there's like only 4 availablehttps://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Hideout
>>579826901I'd be willing to bet 100 bucks that it'll have better retention than 3.29 in the first month.
>>579826957there's nothing new to play, I played my fair share of 0.5 with 3 characters about 95.
>>579827030Then do something else and stop freaking out that other people want to play the game for a week and enjoy themselves. The fuck is wrong with you?
>>579826901It will live or die depending on how good the wildwood wisps mechanic is. If it turns out to be meh then yeah it'll die in a week. If it actually brings us back to affliction, then no shot this even dies in a week
Any good budget/starter build for Trial of Sekhema? Maybe I will run sanctum this time for couple days and quit
>>579826967so the rest of the cool hideout cannot be earned? all paid? >>579826882no, it is on poe2 and cosmic looking
When I wake up all /poeg/ doomsissies better be acked
>>579826901why wouldnt i play it until 1.0 instead of aldur league?
>>579819512who is sodapooping? and is a tub involved?
>>579827674>you pay to look coola tale as old as time
>>579828421>stole Ky's build award without credit award
>>579828496Cope harder.
poo2-only content creators should be killed
Grifting faggots OUT
>>579828421Is there anything sadder than balding males trying to hide it with hoods and beanies?
>>579827674What people do in poe2 is use the divergence environmental effect on on the twisted hideout. It gives it the cosmic look and it goes well because they're both purplehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbhwhHMpbuI
that fat smelly faggot and his blizztroon fanbase are a net negative for the community
>>579817636trvke nvke
>>579828746Why? Some poeple might like poe 2 and not poe 1
>>579828827Its even worse, he's not balding, he has the messican gangbanger cut
>>579828846Very cool, i'm not buying it. GGG should have just let us have all the items from cash shop. And when 1.0 drops make us pay if we want it. But too bad, they did it that way.
>>5798289142rists aren't people.
>>579829208>t. the raped
>>579828914Yeah, I like poe2 a lot more than poe1, and I am a diablo player, played diablo since I was a kid, at one point I was playing diablo 4 and poe2 at the same time hahaha, in the end POE2 is my favorite now.
>>579814957it was in 0.5 when people were still unsure if the asc nodes were worth it. we now know it is, given the addl ways to get quality and how strong the new quality bonuses are
6 months for a 1 month league, how does Godathan achieve this level of get fucked till 1.0?
>tub posting intensify >0.5.5 is a penis>the rape imminent for tub posters
Extra quality bonii being available only to gemling was a huge fucking mistake. Its not just numbers, in some case like arc its just straight up better functioning. They either going to have to nerf them into insignificance or take them off gemling and made commonly available somehow.
>>579819629no his shitty clickbait channel is pure slop1/10 from my reply tho
>open thread>see thisk
What kind of brain damage does one need to have in order to enjoy this game?
>>579829948Delving in Standard
>>579829837Whats slop about his channel genuinly?>inb4 muh AI thumbnails
>>579828914Because they didn't put in the work. They're tourists trying to reap the rewards after everything is already built.
>>579829979do you mean one standard deviation?
>>579830069>be fucking retard>eat shit>still get 40k+ views on multiple videos per day from other shit eatersexistence is so fucking unfair, I can't even. too unfair. I demand justness from this universe.
>>579829853i don't understand how someone gets mindfucked that hard by a seasonal arpg.
>>579830069>new video everyday when there's no new info
>>579830069>87k views for league starters from a guy who barely playsImpressive.
Reminder this is the vid that made TalkativeTri famoushttps://youtu.be/cXlBFfqWhEc?si=hrMNDYlbJ6rX_suE
>>579830316he is a potent force, he has mr llamas personality and rhykkers shilling ability. all in all he seems like a good guy so i'm happy for him.
>>579830582>he has mr llamas personality and rhykkers shilling ability.One of these statements is true.
>>579830695i wish that d2 would fade away into irrelevance, come on how many shocked reaction faces can this dude do on a game that old
>>579829853TUBBED>>579827508It's nothing like Affliction league. You have to farm or buy the Wisps. You don't even get a random chance of them spawning. Fubnigs and partypooftas will drive the price through the roof. An average player is just going to be better off farming Ritual.
>>579830582llama is a prick with a huge ego, tri seems like a genuinely nice guy
>>579830881They will cost maybe a couple chaos max. And they apply to a cluster of maps, so you wont even need to use that many on citiesWill for sure be cheap compared to your tablets input costMark said you will find them 1/5 rituals, and thats non-juiced rituals, so imagine people properly farming rituals will print these with 10 rerolls
>>579830582>>579831003>llamaa real autist. not an insult. dude doesn't pick up on anything in IRL social interactions.
>>579830828D2R is going to get an Act Six according to leaks.
>>579831187If your success relies on social interactions you're a slave
>>579831256and they are going to bitch and moan about enigma nerf, speaking of which, nerf mageblood and headhunter.
>>579831313streaming old games and speedrunning is the asocial autist niche by itself. watched by people who want to learn tricks/get tipps/admire skill/so forth and other autists or simply asocial people.It is NOT the entertaiment in the normie meaning of entertainment, but evidently there is still a sizeable audience for this type of content.normie entertainment a-la hollywood and tv is like mr beast, hence the amount of subs beast has on youtube.TL;DR: Social interactions are different in the communitiy of autistic speedrunners like llama.
>>579831432If they nerf nigma, they will add teleport to a bunch of other shit I would assume. Pretty dumb to nerf a chest that costs a Jah and Ber though. D2 autists are going to freak out.
Reminder that there's a big upside to 0.5.5 having virtually no changes.This means it's the perfect opportunity for you to experiment and make your own build or try a build that you were too scared to league start with incase it was shit since this is basically a meme mini leage but with the main game's balance instead of being full blown meme like phrecia
>>579832075'vkebut you also have to remember that the vocal minority that complains about no changes are the ones who cannot think for themselves and only follow guides.
will the arbiter keys be cheaper this league since you only need to do the non-quest version once to unlock your full atlas?
>>579832075I honestly think GGG is fucking genius, they going to nerf the fuck out of the game for 1.0, we all know this. And they know the tub posters will complain, so they left it alone for 0.5.5. They know, it is like the calm before the nerf, we will be normal hitting creeps like 0.1 once more.
>>579832075Too bad there are no fucking builds left to make at this point, cuz the game has a horribly small selection of skills and weapons.If I change my mind I might play blackflame oil grenade or oil barrage chayula tho, now that they fixed the chaos damage ignite interaction.
im a bit scared of 1.0 completely casualizing the game to appeal to le wide audience
>>579832434>they going to nerf the fuck out of the game for 1.0, we all know thisthe opposite though. They're gonna buff everything so that new players won't immediately drop the game when trying it.Like how League of Legends releases completely overpowered new champs to sell more skins, only to then nerf it into the ground the next patch
>>579832509I predict that 0.5.5 will be the most creative of all patches, because all the streamers are working overtime to come up with new build and I think it will be the most fun and creative period of poe2. And the happiness and fun that comes might be genuine for those who make it. Call it the streamer culling, those who fail to be creative loses audience.
>>579832434The only nerf that didnt sit well with me was shield charge changing from a cooldown nuke (great with poisons/ailment) to a spammy shitskill, and as if that wasnt enough they even slowed down the animation of it with the change and made it hit like a wet noodle in campaign
Imagine being this butthurt.
>>579832717I predict I won't be playing it, feels too phoned in to me and honestly it's souring me on POE2 as a whole, I'm starting to realize that I don't care about the game too much unless there is a stream of new shit being added to it.
>>579832556How new are you?This has already happened, the game is quite literally a joke now compared to what it was during 0.10.1 poe2 had an actual challenging campaign and you had to optimize your gear while levelling to have a smooth sailing.Current poe2 has had 50%+ hp and damage nerfs across the board including to endgame pinnacle bosses. We've already hit the stage of casualizing to appeal to a wider audience and you can thank poo1ners for that because the game was too hard for all the poo1 ecelebs.
>>579832650>bufflmaoin 0.5.2 GGG accidentally pushed a gemling gem quality tweak that lots gem quality got changed it's quite a riot that it got patched a few hours after players noticed
>>579832795I like poe2 and i've made a few tub posts, its just a meme innit bro
>>579832650They will simplify it for new players, and nerf everyone, because if the economy is ruined by faggot bots currency mafia from all those third world shit holes. The game will be bricked for new players who can't even farm a single divine when each item for their build is already 10 to 20 div. The Great Nerf will happen, it is game theory and destiny.
>>579832795gunna cry?
>>579832872This is just a dumb take from someone who hasnt played juiced content in 0.5There was nothing in 0.1 even close to as difficult as grand expeditions
POOP

>>579832556poe2 will be casualized to d4 level, otherwise normies won't return every league to buy mtx
>>579832986I've done juiced content in 0.5 including wisp stacking, I'm sorry that your build was shit.0.1 was a lot harder because the player power level was also A LOT lower with the exception of stat stacking gemling.Now most builds have easily accessible screen wide clears for maximum bing bing wahoo with little to no real investment needed because of all the new options to increase player power along with all the buffs to different aspects of itemization/balance, Which is perfectly fine because that was dogshit in 0.1 but the problem is that they haven't introduced any content that's meant to challenge the power levels we now have at the endgame.
>>579832853That's the culling, can't come up with creative build? the streamer will jump to diablo 4 LOL, that what i predict. Because if you dont have critical thinking or enjoy the game, you will think the meta is done, the meta is only meta when someone make a more fun build. I am very optimistic and excited to see the outcome of 0.5.5
>>579833231>player power level was also A LOT lowerLmfao no. Spark stormweaver completely trivialized every piece of content in the game. SRS did aswell. Lightning arrow aswell. You say my builds are shit for not handlign in 0.5, ill say the same about your build in 0.1 then
even - play poeodds - play dota2dupes - masturbate until 0.5.5
>>579833401I think we can all agree 0.1 was harder because it was NEW. To make 1.0 feel like 0.1 will require The Great Nerf, and it will happen, GGG needs to nerf so hard, the tub posters will be tubbin in global chat, and I will be laughing at them. Remember it is only funny when they complain while they suffer through it.
who got raped harderslow and methodical troons or jrv
>>579833437>doto2Disgusting, no. I rather play diablo4 than touch doto2. Forced 50%
>>579833607it was harder for people who were poe1 brained, ssf, or just bad at the game. 1.0 is going to be the 0.1 experience for a lot of people, in 2 years they will saying the same shit people said about 0.1 to 0.5.
>he is a jingakh
what else to buy? I have all the stash tabs, multiple invisible buffs, invisible flask, vanishing dye, both ring trackers
>>579833437>dota 2 in 2026There are levels to being mazed and this is pretty much at the top.
>>579833279>you will think the meta is doneIn a complex game, there's always more optimization to be done.That doesn't mean the optimization will be thrilling or creative. POO2 is currently too small for any cool new shit to emerge, more or less every gemling meme has already been tried.

>>579834881larryGODS won
I'm still going to play Forbidden Rites. Fresh economy, the Trial of Chaos changes and the challenges are enough to get me back in for a bit.But seeing basically no build shakeup made me weirdly less excited than I expected.I always thought new mechanics were the thing that pulled me into a fresh league. Apparently half the fun is opening patch notes and discovering that something I ignored for three months is suddenly worth building around, while my old comfort build got kicked down a flight of stairs.Without that, my brain immediately goes: "well... I already know what works."I'm not even asking for everything to get nerfed into the ground. Buff some forgotten skills. Make one mediocre ascendancy node ridiculous for a month. Give us some stupid interaction that sends everyone back to PoB.A fresh economy resets my stash. Balance changes reset my brain.Didn't realize how important the second one was until this patch.
>>579834648TRVKE
>>579834881>doesn't use AIslopLarry uses a webcam filter tho
>>579834648yeah I would both
>Complaining about no patch notesOh yeah? so you're saying you played every build in 0.5?
>overlapping UIJOOOOOOOOOOONAAAAAAAAAAAAATHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
>>579835013Which is why people who talk about balance are missing the point. You don't want that, because once its achieved, nothing would ever change again. I don't think they ever want to balance everything so its all equal, so that there will always be something OP to find and feel like you're winning the game. Things get shuffled around leading to new metas, rather than balance.
>>579833880You are right, I hope 1.0 is like 0.1. The hope is the F2P all like poe2, and buy the stash and skins, and then we get to beta test for POE3. DREAM BOIS!
>>579833945Listen to what I am saying, the META is not done, meaning it could be anything. Be creative, do a monk hollow palm cast on crit contagion, who the fuck knows, that is my point. That is what I am doing btw, don't steal, steal and make it better.

Why does every fucking poe 2 build guide vid start with killing xesht
I'm not excited about this league and I'm still going to play. If only you knew how tubbed things really are.
>>579836417unbearable
>>579836417I liked it but you have to bear through the first few levels.
>>579836417
>>579836417If you wanna play bear you should play titan btw, unfortunately even tho druid is more thematic titan is just crazy for bear.
>>579836417Bear in campaign is on the slower side but you will never really lack damage, you just slam and goIn mapping and pushing for juiced mapping it falls off a bit. Headhunter carries it a lot and so does herald chainingIts a solid build for sure, there's just better stuff out there
>>579836417Druid player here (once) bear is fun if you like to be a winnie the pooh riding on tigger like a nigger. Because that's all you really do.
>>579836417it was polarizing on launch. grizzly endgame scaling that only the asiatic players seemed to like. the americans and browns were complaining a lot so ggg did some pandaring with a generous buff to the class. and now any sloth under the sun can play it and make a spectacle out of it.
Is anime princess Israeli? What phenotype is this?
where is that butthurt bear tranny that was coping about his shitty bear rampage build lmao
>>579838019why are all poo1 players so fkin brown?
poe1 player will convert to poe3, because they expect poe2 to be like poe1 but it is not. So their hopes is on poe3 but when poe3 do come, they would have forgotten how poe1 is, and when that happens tub-universe will end like a blackhole eating itself.
now that poo2 has failed what do we play?

Oh no not viewbot7.8k viewers!!!
Let's not pretend everyone doesn't viewbot. I "watched" a rando PoE streamer for 30 minutes for muh footprints yesterday and he had 1k concurrent and literally only 2 non-bot comments happened in that 30 minute timespan. There were a handful of bot comments in broken English that were a permutation of "what build good poe 2" and the 2 real comments and that was it.
ok who of you guys is playing mtga
>>579842715I watch a poe 2 girl with like 100 viewers, shes nice so I'm not saying who

I hope my hag vtuber is going to play 0.5.5
>>579842715You are shocked 1000 people tuned in for drops and didnt chat?
>>579843143I would play monke or Entangle/vines might be better in maps and less boring. I need something that melts bosses I don't want to bother with any of them.
troonathan "sabotageful" rogerstein is giving you a FREE event and you're dooming? just because there's no actual content? just because there are no balance changes in spite of it being a beta test? just because the game is half unfinished and planned to fully release in 3 months but is currently going through a lengthy content drought?? it's a free $30 game, no bitching!
>>579843509Everyone knows PoE 2 will be a great game in 5 years. GGG is the best gaymen company in the world. If it wasn't we wouldn't be here. It's just funny to see people call it a good game right now when it's total fucking dogshit. Not just compared to PoE 1. It's worse than every single ARPG released in the last 15 years, including vibe coded gacha mobile ARPGs.
>>579843440>watching vtuberslmao what drives a eprson to this
guess 25% of the classes got cut
>>579843882>5 yearsin 5 years it will have extreme bloat of 20 increasingly bad league mechanics stacked on top of each other like poo1
>>579844049Yeah. Since we have more classes than poo1 has
>>579844131Well in 20 months of beta they added 10 years of currency bloat to the game so they're well on their way there.
>>579843882nobody will be playing poo2 in 5 years from now. all these bot farming accounts won't be sold on the rmt market, because nobody gives a shit about the game.It will be just like poo1 with 3-5k players online most of the time.
>>579844543There's no maze to replace it unless Riot Games can finally release their ARPGMMO that they keep shelving.
>>579844242>we have less classes than promised>this is a GOOD thinglol
>>579844772it obviously means the classes that are playable right now.
It's so easy to filter out someone's opinion when they choose to describe something as dogshit. Why is that?
>>579844772the only promise that matters is jonathan will keep shitting new patches out for us in his tub
>Why is that?>Make it make sense>QRD?
>>579845019many are asking this
>>579844772They never said those other classes arent coming. I just dont give a fuck what they label 1.0, alpha, beta, early access, full release and so on. I dont know anyone who gets pussy who cares about these labels actually
>>579844959PoE is bad because:1) skills locked to weapon classes2) cucked movement and no movement skills3) dev-enforced combo gameplay that does not work, and players find workarounds for4) extremely long campaign that is a chore to do5) endless atlas (no layout selection)how about this?
>>579844772unironically yes. fewer finished classes > more shitty OP classes designed only to sell a league
>>579845270>shitty OP classes designed only to sell a leagueyou mean like druid?
>>579842873sex with yuffie
>>579845214>extremely long campaign
>>579845349>druid >OPyou don't play the game
>>579845160so you don't get pussy, because you care enough to post, got it>>579845270you do realize that the classes will be op, they just keep them up their sleeves to sell future leagues
>>579845412what are you on about? druid is fucking busted
>>579845471I care enough to dunk on losers who obsess over what should be included when the game leaves early access beta
>>579844714the majority of video game players are not sticking to a single game or genre. You can only play a video game for so long, even the best one.Only the turbo autists or people getting payed a lot of fucking money put in 10.000+ hours into a video game.The player retention is always abyssmal in gaming, 90% fall off before they kill the first boss. That is to say, that everybody who was really intersted in poo, has already tried/played both games.I've completely campaign a few times over the years and I have absolutely no intention of ever playing through the poo campaign again.
>>579845560anon, they said full release in 1 year.it's been 2 years and it's a full release in name onlyjon has lost the plot.
>>579845214an improvement, but many of the things you aren't a fan of are what make poe 2 better than the first game.Weapons feel more unique and aren't simply a stat stick. WASD and movement in general feels way better. Combo is extremely hit or miss but will improve as more skill gems/supports are released and the passive tree is fleshed out. Campaign is better in 2 and isn't as long as you think. Atlas continues to see improvements every patch. A dogshit game these complaints do not make.
>>579845627>but will improve as more skill gems/supports are released
>>579845625I genuinly dont give a fuck. The game has been good and fun for the last 2 years and it has been fun playing every league. I will treat 1.0 just like any other league
>>579845627>Combo is extremely hit or miss but will improve as more skill gems/supports are releasedit's been 2 years, and there have been no new interactions between old gems and newly released gems so far
>>579845625>they said full release in 1 year.never happened
Poe2 has great graphics. Poe1 looks like dogass. thats the most important thing

>>579845813https://instant-carry.com/blog/path-of-exile-2-release-date-closed-beta-and-everything-we-know/sorry what?>The PoE 2 BETA will last AT LEAST 6 months from the moment it goes LIVE. Jonathan Roberts did say that their time frame is focused somewhere between 6-12 months of BETA testing, but they hope that 6 months would be all they need before the Game Officially goes LIVE.
>>579845813The specific words were "if the game isn't out of beta in 1 year we've failed as a company."Thoughbeit Chris said if PoE 2 didn't beat Diablo 4 out the door (released 2023) GGG had failed as a company kek.
>make 2 characters for both classes>it isnt male/female variants>no char customization in 2026 post diablo 4literally what is going on at ggg
>>579845627>Atlas continues to see improvements every patch.They are polishing a turd, the whole concept of the endless atlas looks good on paper but the moment you're supposed to play it it makes you wanna quit because they force you to run 5 shit layouts to run 1 good one
>>579838019You have to ask?
>>579845972what does some jeets opinion on an rmt site have to do with anything?>However, as of yet, this is all wishful thinking, and we will see what will happen in the future after the BETA goes live.
>>579845928the entire atlas tree feels like a placeholder. There's no chance it doesn't get iterated on, potentially even for 1.0
>what if we made the atlas feel like a real world>what if we made 75% of the atlas layouts shit>what if we made it so people can't choose what to rungreat game
>>579846025just buy some micro trans axetions and cover up your character, nobody can tell the difference.
>>579846025>I NEED TO SELF INSERT!!>THE WITCH IS TRIGGERING MY REPRESSED AGP!!!Fuck off.
>>579846172that jeet who gave his opinion to the rmt site is tubful rogers himself, show some respect chud
>>579846084juicing and more determinism on what layouts you want to run in the ultra late game needs major improvements, but the whole concept of starting out on wraeclast and branching out to each league mechanic is far more engaging than the current poe atlas
Uhm.... purple flamethrower Lich number 3 I guess huh...
>>579845270>actually we should have LESS content2mors will gladly choke on troonathan's steaming tubturds
>>579846372as i said, looks great on paper, but plays like doodoo
>I'd rather eat shit than nothing at allt. poo2rists
>>579846486it plays like doodoo if you are a poe1 newfag that thinks the only endgame should be running 1 map for 3 weeks straight.
I'm convinced a lot of the hatred towards poe 2 is caused by the $30 paywall and much higher system requirements.Many thirdies are locked out by the price tag or are simply unable to run it.
is every poe2 build just go straight into mobalytics. or poevault? where are the pob links and shits
>>579846625
>>579846417>Turning fire damage into chaos damage makes fire spells purple>Being a blood mage doesn't turn spells red
>>579846729This wasnt obvious to you since day 1?Poo1 is filled with chinks and jeets RMTers, bots and cheaters who regularly cycle accounts in poo1The $30 fee completely mentally buckbroke themIm actually scared of the incoming brownening of PoE 2 with F2P
>>579845471I said "finished". all that's needed to make something OP is just make the skills do lots of damage. that's why Blizzard are able to roughly keep up on classes despite putting in basically no design effort. poe2 new classes are only OP because GGG needs the playerbase to play them if they're going to get any data for nerfs. if they just wanted money they wouldn't be putting effort into giving them unique playstyles.
>>579846607touristbros... not like this.>>579846792the current poe1 meta of running 1 map for everything started in 2022.
>>579846174BUt hat was a reowkr of what it was beofer. Implies they thought about it and planned it that way. But really its just thrwoing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. The whole thing was replaced and started again from scratch with more iterations needed on that
>>579847118Fuck I'm druinking that looks like a retard wrote it
>>579847118that's the nice thing about ggg, they aren't afraid to make sweeping changes even if they don't always work out the way they want them to.Half the atlas tree is random biome nodes and minor increases, it won't stay that way forever.
>>579846729 is me when I try to cope, but then I see >>579807164 and understand poo2 sucks bigly
>>579847372Its juts trail and error design though. 18 month into EA lets juts scrap this thing and try another random bunch of shit with no thought as a placeholder until we figure it out. Why is everyhting still palceholders at this point in development
>>579847372every design decision ggg has ever made has been some form of "idk lets do whatever and see if it works."
>>579847053before the favourite system you could influence what maps you got just as fine, because you would only get connected mapsthere was always a way to stay on layouts you liked.
>>579847372for sure man, those sweeping changes that are coming with 5.5 are fucking crazy right? such insane balance changes!
bros I just stacked up a bunch of monstercan't wait
>>579847660in poe1, yesin poo2, lol nothey heavily try to mandate the builds you play, and they heavily mandate exactly what mechanics are like when fully juiced, with zero customization

I'm torn between arc totem gemling and grim pillar totem oracle. Did anybody here play them both by chance?

What's a good build for me?
>oddsGrenade WH>evensGrenade Gemling
>>579852646or you just got baited
>>579852408i played spark totem from no belt shaman to lowlife oracle, i would recommend druid. it's easy to zero to hero it in a league start setting.i fucked around with pillars but spark was comfy and i didn't need the extra dps.
>>579852408Here, I did. Grim pillar is better in every single way. Better clear, more tanky, higher dps, lower gear requirement. But it comes with 2 massive downsides. First it's a two button build and totem placement matters (with arc you can just plop them down) and second it fucking KILLS your performance.
>>579852845>i just pretended to suck his cock
>everyone starting mercGuess I'll go druid or something
>>579852980>>579852408doesnt grim pillars tank your fps like crazy compared to arc totems?
>>579853137The person you're replying to literally just said that, you dumb cunt.
yep, not playing an entire league at 40 fps, no way
>>579853235i stopped reading mid way lol
>>579852408Arc totem gemling is much better
Why isn't anyone playing swords?
>>579853574because it's gay

how gaped will wunners be when a low effort event overshadows their flop league
>if i play grim pillars poopsteron winswe can't have that...
Grim Pillars is based on TWO massive oversights. 1) It's balanced around ward cost. The fact that totems just endless shit them out was never intended. 2) You were meant to explode the crystals with other skills, but by consuming frost with entangle. That's why it fucks your fps into the dirt, it's not meant to be played like this.
sorry im fucking mad again saw fubguns chat talking about a druid wolf build "muh combos muh buttons muh speed" so fucking pissed at these retards
Reminder that this memeleague is a great chance for you to finally try HC :^)
>>579854017>good builds are just bugs in poo2you don't say
>>579854070try not watching them. i watch no streamers ever and enjoy both games immensely.
Anyone happen to know any gameplay video that has updated ritualist shown? I would like to see what the locust swarm sprint thing looks in gameplay (it doesnt look that good) but youtube is useless and full of AI build slop.
>>579854109why would anyone play hardcore? there is no upside to it, and it only brings frustration.
>>579853486It really isn't.
>>579854271There's no upside to softcore. Economy is botted to hell, everything is trivial.
>>579854109Show your lvl 100 hcssf character or be silent forever.
>>579854549the upside is i don't quit the second i die
>>579854581That's a (You) problem
>>579854623and for (me) it's a problem of hardcore. it's never an upside.
THERE'S NOTHING TO FUCKING PLAY BEFORE LEAGUE START
>Show your lvl 100 hcssf character or be silent forever.i have never managed to hit 100 on hcssf, but i still try every single league. you're too scared to even attempt it because you need training wheels and a helmet and kneepads and a cock cage and a buttplug, shitcrow. go buy another voidstone carry
>>579854753play with your dick
Reminderhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tbo-nquxOBkYou do NOT want to take all the atlas nodes in PoE 2. As they are not refundable, you are risking permanently bricking your atlas and just nerfing your earning potential for no reason
I play SCSSF every league
>>579854983I never took the point where rogue exiles portal out of the map and get stronger on the next one
>>579848780monster white is 2 calories
>>579854223I took a look but I can't find anything on this skill. the ascendancy node isn't even on poe.ninja or literally no one took it at any point during this league. I remember someone here reporting that it was poop though.
>>579848780cappuccino or latte i cant drink straight coffee that shit is nasty
>>579854753i downloaded 26gb of goon material to go through in upcoming hours, gotta be careful and not to strain my wrist too much before league, i'm trans btw (scssf)
>>579854983>trade3rdworldnigger ramblingsno thanks faggot, I am taking ALL the nodes on ALL the treesI'm ssfbtw
>>579854848personally I would never do it because dying means having to redo the campaign and the campaign can kiss my ass. also not using a logout macro and not shutting down my game as soon as my ping starts getting fucky because muh ddos (garbage servers).
The hardest aspect about either PoE game is competing in the economy. To actually stay ahead of inflation you have to play efficient and smart and you can't rely on youtubeman to tell you what to farm, because by then it's not profitable anymore. You're literally competing with "people" who do this for financial gain. SSF and HC fags know this (despite immense playtimes they've never seen a mirror, never used a lock in crafting, never farmed baldos) so they are constantly shaken by insecurity, which leads to the pathetic, regurgitated posturing day in day out. They larp as Ben, but in reality most of them get hardstuck in yellow maps 2 months into the league.
>>579832947>The Great Nerf will happenyou've internalized the bald patterns
>>579855469Trvkenado
>>579855469Holy mother of trvkes.
>>579855469>dies 400 times
>actually RMTing is high IQ behavior, you wouldn't understand CAW!
>>579855469Competing in the economy isn't fun though. I play ARPG's to have fun
last chance to change your build to corrupting cry
>sacrificing all defense for more damage and rarity because dying literally does not matter >efficient and smart
>>579855469you raped them... theyre just a bunch of kids playing ssfhc and you raped them
>>579855293Lol well I was bit insipired by STR stacking rit builds as a base to build something from so I might as well record a bit when I hit 2nd asc and corner the market on showcasing Queen's procession on its very basic state.
>sits in hideout for 18 hours flipping itemsthis is actually very challenging, i am so challenged right now
>>579855948>accumulation of wealth seems to implausible to an SSF/HC shitter that can't explain without thinking about RMT lel
Why should dying matter?
at what point in the league is the best time to RMT
>Why should the monsters fight back?
>>579856213I sell off my stash when I'm done with the league
Does this work in group play? My wife is playing ice shot, so when if I armour break an enemy this should make her do more cold damage as well, right?
>several posts of passive aggressive kvetching >no actual counterpoint it's over
>>579856307Yes.
>>579855469pretty easy to tell when you can ignore someone. ssf>haha tradecucks and their div/h slop. i just do what i want!anyone who plays ssf and isn't minmaxing their time is a retarded shitter.hardcore>you are a slave to the meta! i'm hardcore, i'm good at the game! i play real builds with real consequences. any hardcore player who isn't playing a safety meta until they can overgear all content in the game is just playing hardcore to see how far they can get before they die(white or yellow maps) and don't do anything meaningful in the game.
>>579856136RMTing is the most efficient way to accumulate wealth. if the challenge is in maximizing economic efficiency, then you're basically fucking stupid for NOT RMTingoh, wait, you mean to tell me you play for 72 hours uninterrupted on league launch trying to "optimize" your farm while wang and kim moon just bust out their credit card and run laps around you, all the while getting full healthy night sleepies, waking up and stretching, yawning, rubbing the sleep from their eyes as they lazily check their phones, then rolling over and going back to rest for a cozy lazy morning while you're spamming legion dunes or something, slowly disassociating? what are you, poor?

I'm a noob (<700 hours played), I'm playing SSF and taking my time this leagueI'll start out with with a Huntress using bow to get through the early game fast, then transition into a Ritualist for extra IIR with probably Twister for an easy timeonce I have a good amount of twink gear and currency, I'll make a new character down the road, I want to make my own build, maybe something with Chronomancer or Martial Artist (I didn't try it out last patch)

>>579858268this is basically just a self-report if you think logging out is remotely necessary or that anything up to red maps can kill you if you're halfway decent at the game.
>>579858510before streamers there was hollywood, and before that, stage plays
>>579858140https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/e76a thats my build lvl 97 i turned ED into a forking very fast casting spell without the need for contagion and used ember fussilade/flameblast/ chaos bolt for single target, make sure to put the fire spells on weapon set 2 with + to fire spells and use the same focus for it, use whatever new gear/jewels/tech that has come out since i played the build i think it was 0.2 or 0.3 so using different belt amulet with the extra skill from breach, breach crafting right ring etc
I play SC Trade. I'm trans btw if that matters

weird how only straight white men play hcssf. pretty white supremacist and colonialist coded game mode, very problematic. white chuds fear diversity so thats why they want to play alone by themselves. plus it's essentially "hard mode" which is ableist and discriminatory against the mentally, physically, and genderly challenged.
>>579859218interesting. how is the hcssf meta these days?roleplaying as an auraslut for a trarthus mercenary, very based.

a kinda gamer shared this quick act guide for poe2https://www.poe2way.com/act-guide/en?act=1and what i don't quite get, because im dumb, is that isn't this pretty much just following all the quests??
>>579861471retard
I think PoE2 is one of the biggest videogame success these last 10 years.
>>579861471following a straight line is too much for the average gamer these days huh
>>579861431JUST_GIB_MTX_BYE
>>579861471Yes, there are a few things you can skip, but everyone who needs a ""guide"" this detailed is retarded
>>579861578many are saying this
>>579861471Doing things in the right order and not forgetting things like permanent buffs or guaranteed useful drops can be useful.I don't use these though, but I suspect you might be able to find a more detailed one with stuff like layout tells and such.
>>579861558>>579861607wow i already said im dumb no need to call me names..>>579861691so you pretty much have to do all quests anyways??>>579861805ooh i get it
>>579861873The mud burrow quest only gives a support gem, and there are a bunch of bonus objectives around each zone that a guide will let you know what's worth skipping or actively seeking out.
>>579861471all this shit just and that's just A1
i've been awake for 12 hours, it's fucking unfair, i'm gonna collapse before maps and when i wake up prices of my gear will be 5x!
>>579861873>ooh i get itJust to clarify, when I say "the right order", I'm not implying there's a wrong order that bricks your char or something, I just mean what's more time-efficient.Anyway if you're new to the game, I wouldn't try too hard to optimize and follow guides right away. There's no harm in taking your time. If you haven't really done the campaign more than a few times, merely having a guide won't let you really speedrun it.
>>579861751many say this but is it actually true? no one knows
>>579862254damn softcucks really have it rough.Keep up with the economy ratrace or the league is over. Your currency is devaluing while you sleep little bro
>>579861578Poe and GGG are huge success story. They went from making a small game for people who wanted something closer to Diablo 2 rather than 3 to becoming trendsetters in the genre.

>>579865857>Chayula Who Dreamt, AKA Benevolent DreamerBreachlord associated with dreams and chaos damage. Breachlords are the masters of Breach demons from another world who attempted to merge into one being (Xesht), and partially succeeded, but Chayula did not merge with them for some reason and was cast between worlds. Now he works against Xesht, which wants to destroy the world; he instead wants to let it live and thrive but dominate it.To the POE2 Monk character, he is basically god, but that turns pretty sour when you finish the Breach questline in POE2.>KitavaKarui god of hunger, maimed and tortured and killed by the Karui for being too hungy. During the events of POE1, he manages to manifest into the world, powered by the oppressed Karui slaves in Oriath. He's killed by the player in POE1.The POE2 Warrior, who was not raised by his own people, the Karui, but by Ezomytes, probably worships Kitava out of ignorance of his crimes, or is particularly susceptible to his dark influence because he lost touch with the Karui culture.>VarashtaFirst (or one of the first) leaders (Sekhema) of the Maraketh people. During her time, the Vastiri was covered in snow, and has since turned into a desert. She created the Trial of Sekhemas (beat it to stop being a jingakh). She helped create Djinns (maraketh criminals who are turned into immortal genies as penance and iirc she's bound to the Trial forever now together with Zarokh, a Djinn who has gone rogue and mastered time magic. They have a kind of toxic romance thing.She is basically a great ancient hero to the POE2 Sorc char.
>>579866974it is the case
>>579864428ok I will
>>579866882dslily?

>>579865857chalupa and kitava are shitters that the exile slaughters for funs
>>579867287>maimed and tortured and killed by the Karui for being too hungywrong. he was maimed by tukohama because shitter ate all the fish and hinekora locked him up for being a sperg. in the karui lore kitava is literally a punching bag child that gets his shit pushed in by other karui gods and in tota you have people loling at people thinking that kitava could hurt anybody.
>>579866174Maybe the guy in your pic was evil
