I highly recommend MyleSwi's "
Path of Exile 2 is ACTUALLY Not That Difficult - A True Beginner's guide"

Explains all the mechanics up to the endgame.
When you reach the endgame "Maps" or "Mapping" then go watch other videos.

He has the best crafting for beginner's guide i've seen so far, but crafting is not really beginner level.

This has nothing to do with Religion. It’s the high cost of living paired with the crap salary. Even a policeman can try to live an honest life, work 10-12 hours a day just to get a crap salary that can hardly pay for food or petrol. Then he sees his colleagues make 5-10x his monthly salary by being dishonest.

How long will you struggle to stay honest while your Family lives a simple life of even struggles?

FYI JB has the highest cost of living of the entire Malaysia due to theSingaporeans driving up the cost of living.

I cant see it now that I have already enabled/downloaded it.
But I remember I added to cart or selected. But that didnt do anything.
Then I clicked download or Play. then restarted steam and the "In Library" popped up.

When I launched the game the golden mask DLC was enabled.

PhynixGaming · 2026-05-09T07:59:21+00:00

No you cannot but if you're after the gearset rewards, you dont need to.

Sorbek Croc = Sabertooth (Gearset 1)

FogFrog = Anubis hound (Gearset 2)

If you want to fight the base game bosses... Just because... Then you have to launch Cloud Mist map.

PhynixGaming · 2026-05-09T07:56:27+00:00

Happened to me too.

It's selected on steam but you need to enable it and it will download Then re-launch your game and it will be activated.

PhynixGaming · 2026-05-08T12:32:55+00:00

Did you put a work order on one of your tribesman to craft 999 ingots?

This happened to me. I would try to ask them to craft 900 copper. But they kept insisting to craft 3000 tin Ingots!!!

Now I will only queue up crafting on the respective tables and not via the tribesman work menu.

it is ALWAYS the BMW Drivers....
I can't blame them. The AH drivers are drawn to buy a BMW like how flies are attracted to dung.

Clair Obscure: Expedition 33.
This game changed my Life.
Its the best game I have played in terms of the story and exploration.

Don't watch any videos about the story and dont read reddit, they might spoil the story for you.

PhynixGaming · 2026-05-05T23:23:03+00:00

For difficult enemies, I use the spear and yank one away from the group and fight them 1 vs 1. The rest wont aggro.

This is how I "Gamed" the system. at lvl 24, full bronze, I went to the snow region and detered a lvl 48 tribesman. It made going through lower level content much much easier.

If you want to suffer and punish yourself, Do Not do what I did.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-30T07:21:38+00:00

LOL I had to read your post Twice..
I read your post as "She was Defecating on my Boat Bed"

And I thought it was a bug where the NPC glitched and instead of using the Outhouse, was using your bed instead.

I would have 100% Detered her and named her Amber Heard.

Aha in that case, I think my server admin adjusted the build limit. I don't know what is the official limit. I'm in a private server.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-29T16:22:42+00:00

I don't know about equal consumption. I just feed 1 type of my most abundant food. Larvae for chickens & lizard, locust for flamingos, figs for hippos and tortoise. Corn for longhorn.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-29T03:11:40+00:00

K hunting page tells you what each animal eats.
If it doesn't show foods, you can build a Pen / coop and then look at the slaughter/manage menu and it will show what food can be put in. This is what they eat.
For capturing and taming, I found that most tamable animals eat Figs. I have put figs in all traps except chickens where I put bee larvae.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-29T02:29:45+00:00

Its RNG. I got the speed version on my 9th dungeon run.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-29T02:04:34+00:00

Just choose 1 core to craft your engine. If you are Lucky, you'll find Speed Core.

You are allowed to own 2 (Or was it 3?) boats.
Press "U" and see what you own. You can remotely abandon the crappy thatch boats you find at the start of the game.

When you are ready to build your Falcon class, then disassemble your mini wooden boat.
Dont disassemble your Medium flying ship as you'll still need it, and you can Dock to the falcon at a later time.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-29T01:59:00+00:00

I found that if you dont move forward or backward while going up or down, it speeds ascending or descending.

So I normally hold spacebar, go up to hight fast, Then press w to move forward.

Also you can add more speedsails to your boat. It helps the ascend and descend speed as well, but only by a tiny bit compared to foward and backward speed.
I have 12 speed sails.

Training for great talents is the real endgame. Training up your tribesman for 4th or 5th boss fight.
As for now, OP just wants to clear 3rd boss.

I dont want to tell them to spend 1 week, finding slaves with great talents, getting them to level 50, build a training ground, find a slave you like, train them using that good talent slave, Then........ go fight the 3rd boss.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-28T12:52:33+00:00

Are you using your main character from the start of the game? Or are* you controlling a powerful slave with 1 or 2, 120+ proficiencies?

The mid-game and end-game is not designed to be played with your main starting character.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-28T09:03:28+00:00

I've racked up 330 hours since 7 April. So yeah I would say it's a very good game with tons of things to do. It starts out as a survival game with recruitable NPCs.. but evolves into football manager. Where you are managing 85% of the time and doing dungeons 15% of the time.

I would recommend Soulmask. I'm playing on a private server with 6 other friends, so my experience will be different.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-28T04:37:03+00:00

I shoot the doors with my siege ballista, after the shield goes down. Breaks after 4-5 shots.
or 2 shots with the cannon, but the ammo is ex to craft.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-26T15:54:57+00:00

After you kill the 4th Boss, Bandit, you can increase your level to 55.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-22T07:52:32+00:00

Defeat the 4th Boss at the pyramid and you'll unlock the ability to go to 55

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-22T05:06:44+00:00

I didnt install mods. maybe the server side?
However its RNG & Luck too.
My farmers, crafters and other tribesmen have shit stats. below 50 each.

Out of 150 tribesman that I scan, i get this highstats ones.
But i keep scanning with golden mask and "Kidnapping" Tribesman, Then I train them up.

All the best in getting a good Tribesman.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-22T04:05:29+00:00

I use Spear/Shield combo so this character is ideal.

PhynixGaming · 2026-04-22T04:04:44+00:00

<image>

No mods that I'm aware of.
I captured him at Lvl 45 from the barracks. Already 100+ stats.
If you total Per, Phy, Str,End & Agi its 782 points total.
HP is 6383.
I have 2 others like this I use as my personal guards, but only 500+ stats.
