I think I've come to the conclusion that the passive tree is a pile of shit. Because stats don't impact damage and there's basically no resists or health in it, the only thing that matters are a few clusters of relevant nodes. Because they are spaced out just enough to limit the number you can achieve, but also far enough to prevent you from wandering to acquire peculiar combinations of them, it's basically pointless.
If you are a ranger and want to go lightning there are basically two directions you can do and you grab mostly everything lightning and elemental in that direction. Because most of the nodes are boring (+dam, +pen, affliction bonus, etc.), once you figure out which of this gives more benefit that really means you've only got one direction. You certainly can't get both because they're just far away. So it's really just a decision of which filler clusters you take, after you get what defensives you can.
I think they'd need to basically double the density of the clusters of useful nodes to actually make choice relevant.

Honor really is just one of the most cancerous things I've ever seen a game. I can't even comprehend this made it into any build of the game.
failed t3 trial. never once had hp drop below 90. even had the fucking boon that restores honor/hp if you life does dip.
got to the scorpian with 700ish honor... stupid ranged chaos damage -honor "get to the platform!" move to a platform as directed. scorpion just walks up and aoe swipes me. -500 honor.
run over. and becuase this stupid shit ends instantly. Can't even learn the fight. nope. just need to waste another hour redoing the fucking run from the start.
not even just starting on floor 3 or anything.

Stack honor resistance. I've done it on all characters and didn't dip below 10% of my starting honor at any time on any character, two of which were melee. Think I had around 100% resistance w/ my relics.

Default max honor res is 75%, there are relics which raise max (90% is the hard limit)
I'm guessing the people complaining about honor never played PoE1 and did Sanctum there. It's basically the same mechanic it was just called Resolve there (and there was a secondary bar called Inspiration)..
The mechanic is for very specific builds and GGG not only porting it to PoE2 as part of the initial EA but also turning it into ascendancy trials is one of the most troll things I've ever seen a game company do.
