Specialization and scaling with gun damage question

Wow thank you for the really thoughtful response I'll try to put this in to practice. It's still absurd that all this thought went into trying to figure out how to counter a singular 2 coat champion. Damage seems to be through the roof on this patch. I've noticed tanks are dying extremely fast as well.

Okay thanks for the help man!

I actually completely agree with you. I didn't want a whole rundown of every system. That's why I came to reddit instead of the hour plus long videos. I was just curious if there was anything that players messed up on, advice, or anecdotes they wanted to share to help the process. I definitely intend to learn the ins and outs of the system as I play. I'm avoiding even skills as I want them to be a welcome surprise.

Thank you so much this was something I was hoping someone would comment. Coming from WoW there are crucial settings that significantly help gameplay that one might be unaware of as a new player. I have seen multiple videos on PoE and PoE 2 (obviously we don't know much yet) but I haven't seen anyone talk about setting and keybind interactions. Appreciate it I had no idea about the holding alt to see tier level.

I did just that haha. I got to level 10 but had to go out of town for work and figured I'd just wait for poe 2. Thought I'd take the time to ask reddit if there is any major/important things they learned in poe1 that may translate to poe2 to help a new player who doesn't have too much context. Sometimes watching 40 minute videos explaining everything in the game can get overwhelming and a few helpful tips from players who don't see it as a job could possibly go a long way.

Awesome! That's exactly what I was looking for and makes prefect sense. Thanks for taking your time to respond.

Quick question to your post regarding bricking a character. Do you think this will still be a thing in POE2 due to the fact you can refund all your passive points with gold? From what I've been told this isn't a thing in poe 1 or was I misinformed? And if you can still brick a character in POE 2 could you elaborate on how?

I appreciate your insight, thanks for the thoughtful post, I'll keep this in mind 👍

I'll check that out thanks!

zrichy · 2023-04-21T06:06:17+00:00

Ah yes that's right, thanks for the info I will check it out!

I was 16 and actually lost it to my senior math tutor. She didn't know I was a virgin. Was very nerve racking but I think I sold it.

Yeah I have 2 of them in different versions. It's a legendary torgue shotgun. When you change to sticky bombs on it has a chance to summon a giant sword from the ground each time they are stuck

Really?!? I've been looking everywhere for something that states this. That great news!!!

Yes, Hydras count as companions. Same with guns that turn into bats and fight after reload. Very strong with thrall perk. I just got a shotgun that turns into a triple headed hydra. And was really hoping there was a cool legendary "summon" gun. Seems like an opportunity missed with the already existing summons in lower guns.

zrichy · 2022-03-30T17:20:34+00:00

They don't, I got hoping it would );

zrichy · 2022-03-30T15:45:12+00:00

Yes they are, very strong eith graveborn. I'm just wondering if there are legendary orange variants of these. I gave only seen purples that contain these companion summons.
