I am not trying to be too autistic here but my general gameplan is to maximize stun with the Titan ascendancy.

Some cool looking ascendancies there for sure. I think Monk Invoker is #1 for me right now, followed VERY closely by Titan Stunner of some flavor. After that... eh, Bloodmage maybe?

I'm really curious to see the eventual STR/INT ascendancies, as there looks to be some pretty spicy nodes in that part of the tree so far.

It looks too generic and boring for me, but also strong and versatile. A lot of people will probably be playing gemling and blood mage, so I think we will potentially see a lot of changes to both.

a few interesting things to remind people of.

1. travel nodes are now chose your stat. str, int, dex. you get to pick. str witch, int ranger. its on the table.

2. a number of poe 1 spells are now ATTACKS.
glacial cascade. is now a staff attack.

3. much of the "spell hit, attack hit" stuff is gone. block is both automatically. cast on crit is now spells again.

4. Eye of Winter exists.
Spell

Projectile, Cold
Level: 13
Cost: 76 Mana
Cast time: 1.10 sec
Critical Strike Chance: 12.00%

Requires Level 52, 119 Int

Fires a single Eye Projectile which does not hit enemies. The Eye constantly releases damaging shard Projectiles in a spiral as it flies, plus an extra burst of shards at the end of its flight. If the Eye passes over an Elemental Ground Effect, it will take on that effect, applying it to nearby enemies and causing shards to deal more damage of the corresponding type.

Deals 16 to 24 Cold Damage
Base duration is 4 seconds
Fires 8 Shard Projectiles in a Spiral when Projectile ends
Modifiers to number of Projectiles only apply to the final Spiral
Inflicts Critical Weakness on Hit

Getting some deja vu, but damn I've been stingy with the microtransactions, though it doesn't show my almost as stingy playstation ones.

has anyone heard anything about the level cap? Im looking at the passive tree...and the numbers don't seem to add up. theres just WAY more travel points, and passives.

like witch to heart of ice. 13 points.

I believe Jonathan said in an interview there was 122 total points at max level? Something very close to that.

They basically want you to have 1000 different routes and you will never be able to allocate all of the ones you'd want if you had infinite points.

Goonling Legion about to pop off. The shit they revealed (2x single support) just makes it potentially stronger.

My money on shit being broken is Warbringer, Chayula, and Infernalist. Blood Mage looks very solid, but outside of the crit stuff it just seems like a QoL build.

The whole "Energy" system for cast on X is weird and I don't fully understand it. I guess they just wanted to get away from scaling CD. Looks like they want Invoker to be the defacto CoCer.

Pathfinder looks boring, which PoE1 Pathfinder looked like to me, so it's probably incredibly good. Deadeye actually looks very interesting with shit like the new Barrage or Spiral Arrow and the Frenzy consumption shit.

The 50% better small passives node in Titan is the single strongest ascendancy node they've ever made. Absolutely psychotic amounts of raw power, so much so that pathing through the stupid extra bag slots won't matter in the slightest.

The cult of mana, energy shield/int stacking sorcerer looks super tanky and a lot of damage once you get high enough level and gear to get it online.

Honestly all but the ranger shit looks fun but for a newbie to POE the simple gearing of stacking mana/int for damage health in the form of energy shield seems like a nice feedback loop of just stack the shit out of this type of easy gearing.

It is my very greatest wish that they are going to make up for melee being so shit in POE 1 that it is just fucking busted in POE 2 and the let it ride.

There's speculation this is just travel nodes and not wheel nodes. If it actually is all small nodes it will get nerfed very quickly. It's The Adorned on crack.
