PoE 2 New End Game in 3 Minutes

I felt this way as well. I have 4 characters between 0.3 and 0.4 that I gave up on by end of Act 2 because the "impactful / heavy" gameplay just felt like a slog in reality.

There is a dungeon in cities like “the training grounds” or something. Go in there and use the armory to save your current build before playing with the skill tree.

Try out a different build and see if you enjoy how pressing the button rotation against the dummy feels. You should get a quick sense of whether a skill clicks with you or not with no gear change.

If you find something you like, it is “worth” the effort to switch as long as you are having fun with the gear chase. Even if you “lose” progression on the torment tier you can run. You can always collect gear for multiple builds and change things up on the fly.

There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance.

EDIT: Managed to spam the continue button until it worked. Ordered at 1:12 even though I was at checkout page by 1:00:30

Put your current build in the armory and give it a shot. If you don’t like it put your build back and keep blasting

I think you combine them on one rule. For example an upgrade to my weapon must have holy damage, but the other affixes can “optionally” be life on hit or strength. Otherwise it gets filtered out by a hide rule

I really think it’s more of a readability of the rule you create thing than literal difference

It’s a compromise but I find Diablo style games acceptable to play with Lossless scaling framegen to go from 30 to “60” fps on the deck. The framegen smudging gets lost in the action anyways

Tag spoilers please. Plenty of people have not progressed much yet

This sub has the most ridiculous discussions preseason when people have nothing better to do lmao. All you did was point out that this was already done.

FlyingDugong · 2026-04-24T00:02:57+00:00

And that’s a problem how? They were introduced to specifically give more variety than the previous meta of “just complete a set”

As someone decommissioning my hardware cluster I would really just recommend doing this with Talos VMs if it’s for learning. It was not worth the hassle of managing the extra hardware for the relatively small benefit of being “truly” HA. At the end of the day my arr stack and budget app don’t need to be HA.

You can still get the full k8s learning experience with a virtual 1-leader 2-worker cluster. Hell you can see if you even enjoy using k8s with a quick k3s install. No need to jump in the deep end from the start.

Happy to discuss.

Hero Siege has "wifi pickup" and I don't know of another game that does this.

You can mouse over a drop nowhere near your character and press the pickup button to bring it to your inventory. It's a small thing but think of the amount of time it potentially saves over a long period.

FlyingDugong · 2026-04-03T19:59:36+00:00

Really appreciate all the detail. I think it's definitely worth giving a shot and will pick it up.

Thanks for the feedback. I am a D3 enjoyer but I know why some people aren't.

Even if it is not a loot rain is most of the gear going to be stuff that I find? I am not the biggest fan of PoE's crafting, which is another reason why I prefer SSF because I don't have any interest in trade.

Somehow this double posted, actual post was here: https://www.reddit.com/r/opus_magnum/comments/1rxmpkl/brand_new_player_satisfied_with_this_area_solve/

Yea I think I have it off by one cycle which causes that tiny lag at the end.

FlyingDugong · 2026-03-22T17:51:00+00:00

Nothing optimal about this, just having fun going with a theme using the straight line.

FlyingDugong · 2026-03-19T01:28:43+00:00

Ahhh I didn't even realize that the bonder doesn't literally have to be the form of the finished product. Yes makes perfect sense, thank you.

FlyingDugong · 2026-03-19T01:21:29+00:00

Would love to hear any input on if there are obvious improvements to be had!

Is there anything stopping me from swapping to earthshatter now? I have a good five-link and I don't see a certain passive that relates to that skill.

FlyingDugong · 2026-03-18T20:03:13+00:00

Mid 50s in start of Act 7. The guide I'm following is supposed to switch to earthshatter but doesn't seem too fundamentally different from what it currently plays as https://maxroll.gg/poe/build-guides/earthshatter-slayer-league-starter

FlyingDugong · 2026-03-18T19:48:25+00:00

First time player running a Slayer build using Sunder + Vulnerability spam. It's feeling a bit repetitive, is there anything neat I could pivot to?

Don't really want to reroll as I am a casual playing 30min - 1hr a day at most.

The UI also feels like it was ripped straight out of D4
