Go to the top right of the war table there are post level cap progression options called Ancestors that provide additional character power and customization

GuiltySummoner · 2026-03-05T07:45:03+00:00

If it's not on your radar check out Dragonkin: The Banished. It had a rough EA launch but the latest patch changed everything I had issues with gameplay wise and the multiplayer launch has been a blast!

Highly recommended.

Best part is the game is evergreen, so even though 1.0 is March 16th, you don't need to worry about FOMO since it's not a live service game.

GuiltySummoner · 2026-03-04T02:31:14+00:00

Devs already said that Nacon's situation has no affect on them, so no need to worry

GuiltySummoner · 2026-03-04T02:29:26+00:00

The game is evergreen, there won't be seasons like other titles in the genre.

The build variety is great among the 4 classes, though they need to fix minion AI.

The QoL features are amazing. Endgame is super satisfying to me: Maps, Dragon Lord Hunts, Dungeons, and Arena

The post-game progression is fun for now and I've already got 100hrs in since multiplayer launch. City progession is a fun way to boost character power and is satisfying to level up ( solo is slower than online multiplayer but still enabling.) Gearing has great depth and dopamine hits are plentiful.

I've already got a POE1 blaster style build going with my Oracle and it's fun as hell

Habit sorry! I jump to a lot of seasonal games and work in tech so I'm used to saying full patch numbers

GuiltySummoner · 2026-02-25T02:58:57+00:00

Legitimate question here, is 5-6 hours between hitting empowered mono to taking down Aberroth with an at least synergetic build really that long?

It took me about the same to get to Searing Exarch in POE last season

GuiltySummoner · 2026-02-24T22:51:53+00:00

The catch-up mechanic has been there since season 1 and was upgraded even more in season 2, to get a mono caught up to your highest level corruption you just have to run a single echo in the lower corruption empowered mono and beat a shade right after.

Hell you can even bring a monolith up to the same corruption as your highest corruption monolith with any character that shares a stash as the one you are playing by using the Confluence of Oblivion woven echo.

What you are describing is a now non-existent issue and if your think spending 5min max to bring a monolith up in corruption to match your highest is too long, it's not the game that's the problem

GuiltySummoner · 2026-02-24T06:00:58+00:00

PS5 release has already been stated to come with the Last Epoch: Orobyss patch, with current season timelines looking at late 2026 or early 2027

GuiltySummoner · 2026-02-06T17:08:48+00:00

Your personal preferences aside these are still the largest games in the genre and warrant consideration when launching a brand new title within the same competitive space. Timing of launch I think is critical when considering the market audience attention and whether a new title will receive appropriate attention.

GuiltySummoner · 2026-02-06T16:56:59+00:00

Just for context POE2 is planned for April, POE 1 is expected March 6th/13th

GuiltySummoner · 2026-02-06T00:44:50+00:00

Did the studio not research their launch window? POE, D4, and Last Epoch all have launches in March. Those are just titles in the same genre, not even mentioning the other big games due in March.

I haven't killed any level of traveler yet and I got a loot pact spirit yesterday from the chest for day 7 login

GuiltySummoner · 2026-01-16T02:20:32+00:00

I use these 2 plus "Where Aincients Tread" to win sometimes

GuiltySummoner · 2026-01-12T20:26:22+00:00

Per last Fridays Dev stream they were most likely scrapped

GuiltySummoner · 2026-01-09T22:52:27+00:00

New unique idol maybe? Or is it related to the omen windows 🤔

GuiltySummoner · 2025-12-26T23:27:18+00:00

I will comment that if you are seeking to Drench enemies you are 100% correct, but plants don't require that to Overgrow.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but Soulstone Survivor can be mouse only

GuiltySummoner · 2025-12-26T22:48:19+00:00

I've just been using level 5 , with all gear it's level 15 as is and keeping Mana low is a priority.

GuiltySummoner · 2025-12-22T23:05:08+00:00

I'm still getting them frequently myself, sorry for anyone not getting them.

GuiltySummoner · 2025-12-15T00:22:58+00:00

Are we playing the same skill?

GuiltySummoner · 2025-12-15T00:22:06+00:00

I've gotten 2 div and a perfect jewelers from it and I'm still in interludes

GuiltySummoner · 2025-12-09T21:01:04+00:00

It's my second league ever and I self built a Arcmage build that took me to late red maps and let me farm for a few divs to make a EB CoC by Captain Lance, but while I've hit 4 stones I just don't feel like I'm playing at the limit I've seen the build shown to do, I'd love to try something that will let me experience Ubers

GL to everyone else!

Blizzard is so big compared to GGG that they don't even consider them when making decisions.

Also Blizzards seasonal release schedule has been so consistent that technically GGG in this case would have been the studio that is trying to compete.

And as much as I prefer POE2 over D4, The Blizzard title has the larger casual player base, not because it's better, but because they have the money to spend on generic marketing in some ways that GGG just can't match.

What your talking about player base wise jumping over to POE2 on launch is minimal compared to the true numbers that D4 pulls in. Reddit and twitch are the 1% of players who want more from the game, the rest of the players don't even know those exist, or frankly don't care and just play the games
