No that's just PoE2 currently unfortunately.

The bottom line is the first ~50 levels of the game is not fun. It's worse than not fun even - it sucks ass and is actively hostile to the player through most of it. Everyone arguing the minutiae of what the best 'leveling' skills are is kinda losing the forest for the trees. You shouldn't need...

Yea combo was fucked initially but after the hotfix it seems to work as expected now. I'm not even at maps yet though so maybe it breaks again later

I haven't gotten far enough in to endgame yet to know if you can fit in bell usage still. I'm hopeful you you still can, cause their combo cost is relatively low, and with generating 2 comber per hit for every attack you should have a truly gigantic amount of incoming combo

Be martial artist to generate nearly infinite combo+spending combo starts ES recharge Mantra of destruction costs 20 combo with delayed gratification and can be activated twice, so each one starts ES recharge Wear prayers for rain to prevent ES recharge being interrupted (you can upgrade bases...

Well good news now you can be a whirling assault monk and be even stronger! Pick your flavor of free infinite charges to spend, or infinite combo to start your ES recharge 5 times a second.

Yea but who actually wants to use mace skills

I wonder how far in to the logistics procurement phase they were with the steam machines. Given the current hardware market I expect they will just cancel the entire thing unless they already have warehouses full of hundreds of thousands of the things.

This removes the ability to make weapons (mostly specifically bows) using 3 essences that always come out the same and can clear all endgame content. People are gonna be mad cause they always are, but this had to happen. The floor for weapon crafting was way, way too high.

Recomb was pretty absurd with the way PoE2 crafting currencies work. I think people are gonna be surprised how the weapon market looks with it gone though. Even if you personally weren't using it, almost every rare weapon you bought on trade was made using recomb and sold for profit or after an...

Aris stream is once again far better than actually watching combobreaker

Recombs being removed combined with being able to upgrade the base type on uniques is gonna do interesting things to endgame. The cost/rarity of very high end rares is gonna go through the roof, and there are quite a lot of unique weapons that will be *extremely* good by just being on a real...

Your spaceship fuel is burning crypto tokens in this btw This is not a meme

The raw damage on them is fine, but the real problem is going to be crit/attack speed and the inability to scale either in any meaningful way. If they remove or heavily nerf +skill levels on weapons they should be totally viable outside obscene rolled 1k+ dps maces.

I was already pretty high on the game by the time I got there but when he started singing his own theme song during the final confrontation is when I realized this was a generational success than just a 'good' game.
