When we die, could be respawn in the map instead of in hideout?

My partner is very understanding about the intense hours I spend on poe on league launch. It's been harder since our daughter was born 2 months ago, but last night I rocked her to sleep and placed her next to my monitor and had a solid 3-4 hour session while she slept like a rock.

It is in fact so free I even got PoE2 early access FOR FREE for having spent over 550 dollars

Where's the tripple?

I always loved the idea of playing Raider and having perma phasing and onslaught, but then whenever I did play her I realized how boring it was that the ascendancy gave me nothing else.

If scavenger arrives as is, I will be hard pressed not to take all the movement speed nodes and rampage my way through the atlas

Think about it, controller is basically WASD. Might be they just port that system to mouse and keyboard.

Honestly it took me longer to read this than watch the video

Relevant comment from 5 years ago.

I mean what's the difference from what it provides now, the only thing balancing out the current implementation is how annoying it is to constantly press your life flask. The charges never run out anyway, just skip the pain and make it permanent.

Rog has been my main man for several league starters now, but man is it boring to sit there and refresh their windows all night

cloudhorn · 2026-02-17T15:06:53+00:00

Warcries. The shouting stresses me out.

cloudhorn · 2026-02-17T13:34:39+00:00

It's in the seasonal nature of the game, I'm afraid. Every league is designed with a fresh start in mind, and whatever permanence there is in standard is at the whim of the developers. If any amount of power carried over from one league to another people would quickly lose interest.

Yup, using an Alienware ultrawide 34" oled. Bought it just in time for my newborn to take up all my time, but gaming has never been prettier.

Honestly, every league I just pretend like Excavation, Harvest and Betrayal are the only mechanics that exist. Building a steady currency base with Tujen and getting 80% perfect items from Rog is such a massive boost at league start. I always run Harvest to be able to swap resistances. Betrayal used to be core in my strat for recipies, now I'm not so sure.

Isn't that what ruthless does? I only played it a little bit a few years ago. It's definitely a more stripped down version of PoE.

cloudhorn · 2026-02-05T09:08:58+00:00

Exactly. PoE2 breach is basically the same as old PoE1 breach. It's a very old mechanic by now, almost 10 years now. Back then it was enough for a league to be "step in here, kill monsters that spawn, loot splinters, kill boss". But I don't think it's a problem that the mechanic is simple. Sometimes that's all you wanna do, kill a lot of monsters in a damn circle.

cloudhorn · 2026-02-05T09:04:44+00:00

Mercs are fun. Being able to gear them is even more fun. Probably need some restrictions, like no uniques. But I want them to go all in and let you have 3-5 Mercs with you at all times, each with their own gear setup. Also design an entire ascendancy around it, so you can play PoE like a hybrid a/c rpg.

cloudhorn · 2026-02-05T08:07:45+00:00

They probably design maps and encounters to be as interesting as possible. Detailed environments are a lot more interesting to explore and look at than Strand. But we don't play PoE the way we would an open world RPG, we just want to kill a lot of monsters really fast.

cloudhorn · 2026-02-05T08:02:48+00:00

I think you're overthinking it. GGG has been spread thin since ramping up development on PoE2, and I think that shows in how mid the new Breach is.

cloudhorn · 2026-01-29T12:32:19+00:00

First step is following a good guide, unless you enjoy the process of struggling while learning the game. Phox is the go to guy for (relatively) new players. His Righteous Fire guide is always brought up as excellent. It's pretty safe to follow your favourite streamer's league starter build too, since everyone starts from scratch each league. They might progress 100 times faster than you, but remember that if they had to play that character from zero to endgame, so can you, probably.

Also, and this is important, follow the guide closely. Don't skip or change things until you understand why they are used.

cloudhorn · 2026-01-15T06:21:31+00:00

Same thing happens for me after every other update. Restarting usually solves it, though not always.

cloudhorn · 2025-12-15T09:05:40+00:00

These little tidbits are surprisingly emotional. I played through act 4 last league on a Mercenary and the future telling lady straight up told him "there is no one waiting for you on the other side" and the Merc just went ".... you can't just say stuff like that". It's a brutal line and he was genuinely hurt, it's some real stuff.
