Merc isnt dead just because they nerfed gas explosions. The explosive grenade is still carrying my ass. Gas explosion is good for clear still and I just soloed a Chapter 3 boss in one attempt. So I wouldnt get discouraged.
Hit the guild bank and take any item you need. Game is overly gear dependent.

They said they will never do that. New League everyone starts doing campaign. Instead of new players having to do it and older players can blast other stuff instead.
I did not like it before in PoE. But after D3 and D4 I think skip campaign is even worse.
Edit: Oh misunderstood. Yea once per League would be fine.

For all the shit that Diablo gets these days, I do think the adventure mode they had in D3 was much better than running the campaign over and over.

And I fucking hate them for doing it again. They had a golden oppertunity to kill MF for good and they didn't and I am sad. Hit maps, its "fine" Ironically this is kinda the same issue I had with D4, yea I could grind from 70 to 90 and do some rarity find or whatever but they killed what really drove PoE for me....deterministic crafting
Now its kinda like D4 but instead of just finding specific legendaries I can run around and hope the RNG god love me with a rare or two or maybe a decent unique (since I have yet to see a build defining one for sorc), but all this currency I am getting its just being tossed into a super duper RNG machine that noone can control. I'll go back to PoE 1 if they release a new league, but its time to take a week or so break and see what changes they make with the feedback and maybe come back this weekend. The maps are not interesting at all and with nothing to focus on its just all about the gameplay which is pretty good but I dont wanna play Lightning Arrow atm so I will see what people come up with as an alternative alt.
Good:
Looks pretty
Good dev team so I am sure some stuff with change in a non retarded direction
Good combat
Bones are there for a super game that isnt realized yet
Bad:
Rarity Finding / Magic Finding is back baby and is TOO good
Tedious campaign (I am not doing that every league let alone multiple chars a league)
Melee is pointless except maybe ranged monk (lol)
Loot rate sucks ass
Loot despanwing / Monsters repopping when you die is bad and they should feel bad. At this point take my XP
You lose your map if you die once which Chris WIlson should be ashamed about but he probably thinks hes being funny
No deterministic crafting
No crafting bench
Crafting sucks
FIX FUCKING CRAFTING
Ascendancy trials past #2 are FUCKING DROPS
Maping is just to map atm and its shown that I need more reason apparently

Dropped a bow in the stash that may be good for someone's alt, I don't know how items work yet really. Nothing I've found seems interesting.
I'm happy to try and organize stuff but am not sure how people want it sorted. Just rows of similar weapon / armor by slot and by rarity or level?

Uhhh, PoE has always been "level scaled", in a sense. Areas and maps are all capped at x-x level and you go to whichever is your level to farm/xp.
What would an "adventure" mode change where you had access to endgame immediately and you just go to various points in the campaign to "farm" levels until you're ready for maps? It simply skips all the retarded tedium of questing, waypoints, talking to NPCs, etc.

Weapons. Make sure you are using a good weapon with increased phys damage (% or flat).
Also don't skimp on picking up socket items to salvage, sockets are unironically the most important path for upgrade early on.

For me I've been focusing on finding good magic items. Add one stat, if its good then upgrade to rare. It's ultimately gamba.

Yea this. Find good bases you can use (armor items, whatever weapon you're using)
Also don't neglect the vendor.

I don't have a problem with that kind of loot acquisition. It's essentially what Last Epoch did. LE throws crafting mats at you and makes loot filter customization relatively easy. And, I never thought I'd say this, has better mobility skills.
What's a good tree planner? I keep looking at the tree in game and think I'm doing it wrong because of how many travel nodes I'm spending in between the actual clusters I want. Removing life nodes might have been a good idea, but it seems they didn't compensate adequately. Lots of low value trash on the tree. Might be higher value later, but that's what they feel like now.

So did they really want crafting to JUST be another way of pulling the lever in hopes of a jackpot? I know in POE1 there was a lot of RNG, but people that had a ton of knowledge could make profits easily from crafting alone.....
Really seems like they went backwards instead of just simplifying it. <- I get the need to make it easier to understand, but pure randomness kinda sucks.

If you have a lot of knowledge, and money, you can take out much of the randomness in crafting at the very high end using omens. This is definitely going to be a rich get richer poor get poorer game, I can already see that now.
