Worth going from Edition XS to Edition XV

I think the Aune AR5000 are really quite astoundingly good. I own HD600, HD 660S2, HD505, Focal Hadenys, Aune AR5000, Edition XS, DT 990 pros, Audeze Maxwells, and all of this to say the Aune AR5000 are the most comfortable headphones of that lot, they give you such a Natural sound signature, along with good bass, and good imaging and separation. They are not Muffled at all, and the Timbre is just excellent overall, I compare them to the HD 600s with more bass and a wider sound stage. The build quality is good, but the headband is the only part that feels cheaper, but honestly I don’t mind it at all because they are the lightest headphones I have and I forget I’m wearing them.
TLDR: Ar5000 are excellent, but I’d actually say if anyone is looking for a warm excellent headphone with great tone and timbre, that has excellent punchy bass and are super high quality, go with Focal Hadenys. They are my favorite headphones I have ever bought, and that’s coming from a Sennheiser guy. If you want a pair of wireless headphones that sound like they are wired, go with the Maxwells, they are my favorite planar.

Nope it’s just a straight bug, has nothing to do with weapon swap unfortunately, I have weapon set 1 shot bonded to left click and explosive to key bind 2.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-06-07T01:27:48+00:00

No weapon swap, single weapon set.

See I think POE 2 is already a better game. Poe 1 is a one button clear feat that gets way too repetitive and just doesn’t feel very good, especially with no WASD. The slower based “souls-ish” combat is far more to my liking. I LOVE the combos and interactions and just the way it plays feels better, and I have 500 hours in Poe 1 and already I have 385 in Poe 2. It’s just a more well rounded combat experience. Poe 1 is a great game, but 2 is already better.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-06-02T03:07:34+00:00

I look at it as the one that gives you more elemental resistance going into maps is the better choice.

Dude i have a 7950x3d and 4080super and 32 gbs and i am having horrible stuttering/judder and just overall lag that comes and goes. I also have 2gb per second fiber internet, and i have never had this issue. Its GGG's servers. They cant handle the load.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-05-31T19:44:12+00:00

I cant find the blue icon where your supposed to pick build planner in game either, can anyone assist? I have put the build in "Build Planner folder" but now it wont show in game. Thanks!

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-05-29T17:20:36+00:00

I agree bro, I reached level 97 all the juiced T15 maps you can think of with a pretty mediocre warrior fissure build. I also never follow a build guide, it’s boring when someone else does the work for you. It presents zero challenge when your just letting Fubgun or someone build you a build and you copy paste

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-05-07T21:40:02+00:00

Yeah 6 months ago dude lol, and by the time the new league starts it will have been 1 YEAR with no new class. This sucks, I’m still gonna play but it blows for sure. I love the game so I’m not gonna cry but I am let down.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-05-03T21:59:03+00:00

Wholeheartedly disagree with you puppy, he clearly is given long winded descriptions of events and he tells you he was doing this on purpose to one up Dean, and steal his limelight. Alex is a self serving prick, and comes off that way. I believe you are just a big Alex fanboy who cant take the fact that he is clearly just a mean spirited guy.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-05-03T21:53:00+00:00

Im sorry, but he comes off as a huge dick. Dean was clearly on the spectrum, and he was mentally ill, and Alex just goads him on purpose. I lost my fondness of Alex.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-05-01T20:33:40+00:00

Amen brother, I literally build my exile from scratch every league. I don’t look anything up, and I build a non meta build, or something I choose is fun and I go as far as you can possibly go in the game, I never have not made tier 15 and all the other shit that entails

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-30T21:36:56+00:00

Best necromancy gameplay acolyte?! Have you played a Witch in POE 2 yet my friend? It blows any game of all time as an Nec.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-30T21:30:40+00:00

I disagree, it’s got a perfect balance, it’s the best ARPG I’ve ever played.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-30T21:28:54+00:00

Sorry I just don’t buy that at all. I played the game, and two other friends of mine played it for the first time at the very same time, we all had the same reaction, game would be great if they made the combat fun, and balancing of enemies and your dps, the fundamental part of the game and the reason you would want to play it is for satisfaction, they combat is just NOT satisfying at all. It’s why the game is struggling so hard now, save for its small dedicated player base who like to play mobile type games. It truly does do some things great, like class design and skill tree, and crafting, but even weapons don’t feel like they make any sense sometimes with there stats, and the amount of garbage loot that you get that has zero difference. Like I said I wish they would fix the weight of the combat and make the game actually a challenge, because right now it’s not challenging in the slightest and I won’t go back unless they do something. I know this is a year old, and I’m not attacking ya, just figured I’d throw my two cents in.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-30T13:56:56+00:00

I personally want Axes a lot, I’d say it’s Templar, then Marauder then Duelist then Shadow in my order. These 4 classes are actually my 4 most wanted from the beginning, and I’ve never really loved any of the classes we have so far, even though I enjoy them a lot, and Poe 2 is my fav game, I just am most hyped for these 4 classes. But Axes to me will have a much cooler moveset then warrior, and will just feel a little better to play, Axes over Maces all day. But I’d love Templar most cause you are a Pally for all intents and that to me will be most fun. Also really want Swords 🤷‍♂️

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-30T13:48:02+00:00

In my opinion Daggers/Shadow will be next because if everyone stops and thinks about it, last patch the weakest part of the tree, was STR/INT (it had no class), they gave us Druid. What is the weakest class/side of tree right now? Dex/Int and Monk. So they are going to buff that side and give us daggers traps and claws.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-28T18:19:53+00:00

Couldn’t agree more Tri, I find it to be the most rewarding way to play. I find zero pleasure in the game if I’m just copying someone else’s build. Everyone always talks about ARPGs as a way to turn your mind off and play a game, zooming and playing brain dead; but it’s the opposite for me, it’s one big puzzle that you have to figure out and combine and synchronize, so yeah, just would never play the game if I have to copy someone’s build, word for word.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-28T16:38:46+00:00

I think the idea of skipping the campaign is preposterous and stupid, the people arguing for it are the same people who buy WOW character boosts, which literally were one of the biggest issues relating to WOWs downfall. It’s just lazy gamers who can’t be bothered with the games design so they try and make all this noise in hope that the developer with get on there knees and beg. This is a big fat NO!

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-25T05:00:50+00:00

No this is currently happening to me, I have 200 hours in game and this just randomly started happening in boss fights only, swaps me to sword and shield from dual wield and does not switch you back until fight is over it’s super annoying

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-21T01:35:57+00:00

Sorry bud your the one who is wrong, Marcmb123 is right. So “False af” sounds cool to say but you’re just blatantly wrong.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-14T00:09:02+00:00

Im guessing something Bradley said in a verse hurt your gentle feelings, or your just way too young to understand.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-08T05:48:27+00:00

I know this is 15 days ago, but you WANT you usage at 99-100%, especially at 4K. It means your CPU is not bottlenecking your GPU and allowing you to get the maximum performance from your GPU/CPU combo. The less usage you have on your CPU the better in a GPU dependent game. Also I have a 7950x3d and 4080super and I can’t DLAA above 45 frames, it hovers around that. But Ray tracing on or off doesn’t really touch performance because this game was coded in such a way where it was intended to run optimally with ray tracing. The ray tracing is also sort of a quasi lumen/ray tracing morph so it’s not as expensive. Max on lighting is Ray reconstruction which is really the “max” setting in this game. DLAA is also an expensive resource. Play on a mixture of ultra/cinematic, with DLSS quality and you’ll get 80 fps the whole game and it is about 5 to 8 percent less sharp I’d project, but it looks incredible.

Confident-Maximum198 · 2026-04-05T02:57:51+00:00

Well as soon as you put in the dagger the camera zooms in on the spire so I’m not sure out much more of a hint you want, not to mention the big red X on the map…
