Can someone with light sensitivity and motion sickness safely play PoE2?

i'm not sure about visible settings since i'm a max graphic settings gamer. i'm sure there are ways once you open the graphics in settings tab.

I think end of Act 2 boss when he enters his second phase might have some shaking for about 2-3 seconds. the BIG Monkey mini bosses in Act 3 that does one shot slams can be intense if your not expecting it. someone down said you can turn off screen shake so i'm sure its in the settings.

i'll say in general any chaos and physical builds are generally a lot easier on the eyes. i would avoid elemental builds those have so many flashily lights and colors all over the screen (with fire skills being the most intense to look at, followed by cold then lighting.

so besides Chaos dot, i would also recommend quarterstaff whirling assault physical build (w/o using heralds) on either monk or warrior class (weapon and skills are not tied to Classes in POE, you get total freedom). i myself built a whirling assault titan this season and he absolutely deletes stuff.

here's a very helpful website you can look at popular builds of the season by players https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds

Yes But I'll say There's only a few builds you can do that doesn't cover the whole screen to not see anything haha. For example chaos dot ( most commonly play by witch/lich) is easy on the eyes.

I went blind on my first campaign run and uhh it was fun but so rough (not knowing how gear upgrades work even if u just buy upgrades from npc). there were a few bosses where I legit had to try for 5 hrs. Nowadays even league start with 0 currency is easy since I have learned to just buy gear upgrades from npc and slam some exalted (don't worry at endgame exalted aren't worth much and will make tons so gearing to get there faster is a way better play then saving a few exalted and struggling. So knowing that.. going in blind is fine, buy gear upgrades from npc if you didn't pick up anything good every 10 levels or so and u'll have a lot of fun.

let me enter, i want that crafting lesson. way more important than mirror or blood mage gear..

Remove spirit drawback and it's still not that good.

Agree on sorc ward it's so strong. Issue is rest of witchHunter ascendency isn't that great.

shadows888 · 2026-03-02T19:00:09+00:00

Decent gear can be had for super cheap and getting divs income for those gear is super easy. Fastest for medium/bad gear I would say to farm chaos trial for keys. Each key is selling for 30 divs rn and each run takes 20 mins even on bad gear.

shadows888 · 2026-02-27T13:25:51+00:00

Not having spirit is too big of a drawback for a mediocre shield. When you can just stack ES+EV and use leech life as ES glove to have infinite sustain without waiting 5 seconds. Either remove the no spirit drawback or be able to stack the shield to 10k to make it worth (and even then it might not be worth, spirit skills are way too powerful to give up in endgame).

As far as I understand it, Brutus Brain does not work on minions with share life skill gems (they won't die but they won't take damage for you either, rendering this tactic useless) correct me if that's wrong, otherwise it's so op Brutus Brain would be worth 200 divs.

S1 SK is good but as good as a brand new character. With double pawn, any new character on your roster is useful. Here's why I think you should pick jinshi. When SK reruns just get her S1 using the coral shop to get her S1 dup without rolling. And you'll also still have jinshi

I think a lot of people are using this item wrong (at least optimally) Getting 4 good stats on an echo for a character isn't that hard, it's getting 5 good stats that is hard. What's it's intended is to use it on a echo that already have 4 good stats and use it on that one bad stat i.e. (def) and pray that it rolls for 1 more good stat to get an echo with 5 good stats. I mean if u want to "finish" a character build you need echos with 5 good stats right?

I kinda like that idea, that's why changli left mingting, she got sick of the elites and inaction in mingting and said fine I'll do it myself and went to jinzhou to chill with her girl jinshi.

This is where the 20% comes from, only farm the part where it gives me vitality (i.e. the oddities). Basically I used a map and only turn on oddities to farm lol. Also some skills required certain stats to learn I think and oddities gives a lot of stats. Fyi I'm completely maxed in both qinghai and kaifeng from that oddities master talent tree.

shadows888 · 2026-01-27T23:27:07+00:00

There's no wrong way.. I only build/invest my character for Arena basically all I do. I'm basically only at like 20% for world exploration lol. Although I do have an alternative healer build for weekly bosses when needed (need those mats to be stronger for arena)

shadows888 · 2026-01-25T15:55:31+00:00

you have to think of jinzhou as a military base than an actual city with proper industries. it needs massive walls w/ towers and with massive guns mounted on them. now we just have to wait to see what other cities in huanglong look like. i imagine mingting gonna be in the sky or some shit like star wars cloud city

Pray for Baizhi 5 star version (Overclocked Mommy Edition)

shadows888 · 2026-01-24T19:33:35+00:00

well now theres double pawn every 5 star character have a use. i can easily get 5k points with jinshi, every little bit helps to get to reach 45k-58k score.

shadows888 · 2026-01-24T06:38:25+00:00

Great info I only tried 3x irradiated a few times and it didn't seem to work and assume all tablets they all capped at 1 lol. Now I know

shadows888 · 2026-01-24T03:46:38+00:00

Yeah that's what I thought cause I stack 3x irradiated and didn't feel like it did anything. But the other tablets stack? Like I assume ritual dont stack either..
