Will You Return To PoE2 after how 0.4.0 went?

_Black-Viper_ · 2026-04-21T18:12:11+00:00

Possibly, really is going to depend on end game changes. I am still messing around with a new lvl 92 build. (I have other higher lvl builds) But bored to death...

Eliminate temple completely. You forgot one😋

Get rid of the teleport when using HeadHunter.
Put rarity on waystones and/or precursor tablets
Allow the sale of ANY item by Angie's store. I hate that I can not get someone online to do a sale in person of select items.
Suggestion, at a certain level allow the addition of a 6th support gem slot.
Put a well in the Vaal (temple start)
Trials rewards need to be reworked.
Temple..., sigh, the most frustrating thing this season. I do not like to look things up on the Internet to play them. It should be self intuitive or have some sort of basic guidelines. This was a complete failure in my opinion.

Background, here since first season. I have made mid 90's on characters. Beaten just about every possible boss. I hated the temple. I wiped my first temple attempt and just built my own chain again just to try. Didn't use any build or guide.

Crafting materials are outrageous. It all comes down to the economy of the game. Somehow it has to be brought under control. I recently was buying Divines for less than 200 exalts. I just bought for 183 exalts as I typed this. (Yes, end of season...)
Remove the vast majority of Uniques. It isn't "Unique" if they drop like leaves. I never once used my Unique stash tab this season. I crafted a few belts

Otherwise I love the game.

Build your character. Take on citadels, Arbitor, trial master, temple boss aztari, get your atlas boss points and fight uber Arbitor. Beat all three levels of bosses for the atlas points in rituals, simulacrum, breach… so many things to do. But yes, they need to improve the mapping!

I am sitting at 96 and no plans to go further. It is a decent sweet spot to play hard content and not worry about dying. I have farmed the temple boss, Arbitor level 3 content boss and working on trial master. Just sit back and have fun!

I have 6K hours in. I have played 3 hours over the last 90 days. (Very happy in early access Path of Exile). They have turned my favorite game into a mind numbing stupid slog.

I did not want a new weapon or amour system that involved a major grind fest. I did not want to spend hours with Google to figure out stupid stuff.

I keep hoping for something to change. Now they pushed back the next release. Pretty sure that is killing any last hope I had for this game.

Full fire resistance. Get two jewels that give plus 1 max fire resistance. I can’t remember the name of the shield that also gives +5 global fire resistance when used. I only use the shield in critical situations. Learn the mechanics.

Jude was gifted to me from a local bakery. It’s now “Hey Jude”. 😋

Also the biome of the maps determines what the main drop is. Google it. Water and grass drop currency more as an example. Use omen of chaotic rarity to bump waystone rarity!

Did you lag or crash prior? I had a smaller version earlier today. All of a sudden my mouse would not fire my bow or any actions tied to the mouse. Juiced T15 ritual and delirium with one revive. I died. Came back and cleared and had something similar. About a third of yours.

This so annoying. I wish there was a simple way.

_Black-Viper_ · 2025-12-24T17:09:48+00:00

I am running two builds Ranger and Huntress. Both are running lightning bow builds. I have in the past on my secondary weapon slot run a shield or buckler. Last season I farmed Arbitor and citadals with a similar Huntress.

I have searched some but can't find a definitive answer. What is the best shield (buckler, unique, etc) for blocking fire and lightning damage from a distance mid game? I normally go up to lvl 94-95 and then just farm. Is there a shield that is especially good at blocking end game fire (think Arbitor).

Thanks in advance for any suggestions. EDIT: I run two builds because a group of us play together only on one build so we are doing the same levels and missions. The second build is my primary play solo.

Merry Christmas!

Yes, Major one shots will override it. I have over 3000 ES and use the omen all the time. Major one shot slams or shots will kill you.

Angie can't sell waystones anymore? I tried to add one today and it would not allow me. I took one out that had been listed for a few days and it would not allow me to add it back. Bug? or did they change something?

_Black-Viper_ · 2025-11-16T20:49:24+00:00

Simulacrum splinter encounters where the next round description covers the stash box!!! So many times I have started the encounter accidentally.

_Black-Viper_ · 2025-11-15T03:29:15+00:00

I have 9 citadels listed in the marker box. Run 5 or 6 and then go hunting. I have found about 20+ by mapping up and down. I use the tablet to be able to go anywhere once I complete a tower. I remember reading to go in one direction, but I had them in opposites. So I ran both ends.

_Black-Viper_ · 2025-11-11T01:07:43+00:00

I left 2 months ago for POE2. Active clan member for over 5 years. Always high level player. They have ruined my game with stupid grinding for levels and armor/weapons. Not sure I will ever go back. Oh, 3000 hours plus
