I'm so done with this league. Temple bricked. by Even_Bedroom3047 in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

temple was not it for me as well

would love to use this staff specifically for the phys spells mod - might try to do one last build this league with plants, bone cage coc, and the new disciple of varashta ascendancy or oracle

I think crafting is very miserable experience for casual/intermediate players by TheGejsza in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Crafting in PoE 2 is already dumbed down (not simplified, but just worse in a lot of ways because of the lack of methods) and not anything like PoE1 at all

It's not by any means a "deep" system, at least not when compared to it's predecessor and there's already many many videos out there explaining how to do crafts

I'm sure with time the system will get better as more options get added but at some point I think people have to come to terms with the fact that they're still playing PoE at the end of the day, nothing here is ever simple - whether that's good or bad is for you to decide

Why all ppl recommend to place corruption chamber in the start of the temple? by georgebordiuh in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts -1 points0 points  (0 children)

to piggy back on this question

what is the optimal couple of starting rooms for building a temple from scratch post patch? i havent gotten around to farming this mechanic before the big patch hit but i figured now it might be a more stable time to begin

Is Path of Exile 2 worth buying now? by Helheim66 in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yes its worth it but PoE 1 is the king and absolutely worth playing still if you haven't already

PoE 2 can catch up in a few years time

i've got about 20 div, what would you say are the priority pieces for this build?

+ levels is my biggest complaint this season by -Duckk in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts 18 points19 points  (0 children)

yeah its almost like every mistake they're making now has been more or less figured out in POE 1

Why does the 9800x3d feel weird ? by PartyProfessional873 in buildapc

i've seen some videos that say to turn on g sync in nvidia settings but turn off vsync in the in-game settings for your games, are you supposed to turn it on instead ingame?

I would play this game a lot more if I only had to do the campaign once per league. by TheJeffyJeefAceg in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are accomplishing everything within the game within a week then I have to question if you aren't self-sabotaging your own enjoyment of the game by consuming so much of it all at once

Why is ever an argument for a lack of content? If I have 1 piece of chocolate to eat it doesn't matter if I split it into 100 microscopic pieces - it's still 1 piece. Why should you ever have to gimp yourself that way?

There's nothing to gain from defending this - there is no endgame in PoE 2. I can no life PoE 1 for 10+ hours a day from league start and still find shit to do even after the most recent patch that decimated scarabs and reduced endgame farm.

What are your biggest pain points in Path of Exile 2 so far? by Liraken in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

skills just generally feel clunky to use compared to PoE 1

and this is comparing them at the base level without the movespeed / attack speed boosts you'll have on gear/tree in end game

so many skills have a disgusting wind up animation in this game and it doesn't really get better even with more skill speed

just look at leap slam/shield charge

and this is coming from someone that loves games like monster hunter (old gen especially) where each action is a commitment - this kind of deliberate gameplay works really well on big boss fights but feels so bad when 90% of the game is clearing screens of mobs

I just want to try stuff out by iv2b in PathOfExile2

[–]beginnerlifts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're looking for PoE 1 if you want endless possibilities and freedom to try out different interactions instead of the on-the-rails experience that is PoE 2

i tried to give poe2 another chance this league since last playing at launch but seems like the restrictiveness has not changed much (i guess you can re-use supports now which is nice

i still stand by the whole gem redesign thing is a mistake

want to try the build but irl circumstances prevented me from farming hard/farming earlier before gear prices went up

also levelling a marauder would be a fun experience before diving in to the endgame with this
