Got this today from the vendor in the hideout. Never give up on your dreams. Also beat Arbiter of Ash. Think I'm finished now.

Nice! I just got passed Act 2 Cruel. Still having fun but hard with two kids to put in some time.

I’m still mapping trying to get through lvl 4 maps. In order to get to the higher tier maps, do you have to trade? Kind of seems like you do since crafting is somewhat non-existent.

You gotta pray for drops or trade

So hard playing this on console. You really need to have some sort of notepad for everything. I’m trying my best to get my resist up to 75% each but when I remove something, another thing breaks. Although I did somewhat craft an awesome Hammer.

Dawn of the Hunt Patch Notes dropped today. Whare are your guys thoughts?

I think the Warrior looks better but I think they're still confused on what to do about Armor.

Patch Notes

 

[deadshot138]

They nerfed everything good. Which I guess is what helps people make new builds. Whatever. I'll play.

 

[CaulderBorn]

I just wish they added more stuff with all the nerfs. I mean One new weapon type is not to most exciting. Eh we see maybe some sick shit gets cooked up soon.

 

[deadshot138]

So are there new acts? Or just new ways to play the old stuff?

 

[shunyata]

Haven't checked on this in a little while.

Is it still in open beta?

People were saying it was super grindy in a not so great way at release. Has that changed or still a huge time investment to get to the endgame?

no, same 3 acts with a double run threw of em for ending the leveling. The final 6 or what ever there was is coming when game is off beta.

yeah its still in beta. I dont find it grindy myself. I have a few chars at endgame and it was not a crazy grind to get to. I play maybe an hour or two a night with maybe 3 hours on an off day. Have not played in a month and have like 3 endgame ones.

Was a mistake for Grinding Gear Games to early access this with a price tag. Development hiccups during its playtest state shouldnt be aired to its community in full view. Stopping POE1 development is just creating further fanbase fractures.

Boss fights still a long, repetitive, slog?

Even worse now that they over nerfed everything and nothing does damage.

 

[SwamiLeoni]

Looks like they're releasing a hot fix. Haven't been on because I've been jamming on Robocop, but the overall consensus is that this patch so far has been a total fubar.

How is it possible to make the game worse as development continues

Act 2 boss still bullshit

Over the years in every gaming community rumbles of game developer conspiracies have existed. Intentionally capitulating cheaters to boost their bottom line. For the first time yesterday Grinding Gear Games publicly made this a reality.

Dark day for online gaming.

Dropped Frames(a gaming podcast of Twitch streamers) had Jonathan Rogers on yesterday to discuss POE2. Rogers was indirectly asked twice about RMT'ing and account sharing by a certain individual. He directly refused to answer the question.

It was all over the POE2 and Livestream Fail subreddits.
