Don't sleep on vendors. They can sell pretty good rare items now so be sure to hit them up when you're in town.

This shitty ass game. They REALLY need to fix the early loot. I am using lvl 2 gear at lvl 17? With no currency or drops to make shit better. I KEEP getting shit I can't use or is just shit off bosses. Sucks I can't play the class I want at least a LITTLE the way I want.

Run with friends or use the gambling vendor. If you run with friends or other people way more gear drops. Its starting to feel like the game is built around a social aspect just from the difference in drops.

Gambling seems to be a quick way to get good drops for not alot of gold.

I'm wondering how much of the core game has been changed or if it's been changed for this new version.

I've actually just started doing that with Finn I think, the gambler guy. I just picked a few other slots first and used some alchemies on rings.

I have one now, but it's because it I bought it. Was just talking about drop rates.

Edit - also at the beginning pick up everything, there's no tp stack, so just dumping inventory to vendors has no downside. I'm sure this stop being practical later on.

After playing both M/KB and Controller I can tell you now controller is the way. Playing Monk with controller is a really good time.

Also, this is the new standard for how a monk should play in any video game. So good.

Also just tested an exalt on a rare wand I was using with 6 mods. It didn't add another, but did increase the amount of mana modifier. Probably useful information

Ugh so do I need to switch to ice sorc too. Was going along pretty steadily but dmg seems to have fallen off a cliff with essence drain in my mid 20s. Not invested at all into minions, still trying to get to the chaos dmg wheeels - anyone else playing this? It took me sooooo long to kill the last couple bosses , the fat guy that twirls around mechanics weren’t bad but he ignites the whole damn floor if you’re as slow as me and it got close at the end.

The colossus mob fight before him was cool but buggy af - anyone else have curses just randomly not go where you target with him? Also took me forever to kill him.

Hoping someone else here went with a chaos build and can tell me it gets better later

Currently trying out a minion chaos build too. Adding in freeze with the frost mages, cause it looks like freeze cc is king. I like it so far, but I'm worried the wheels will drop off on the wolf fight and into act 2. Not really a fan of the constant dodge rolling dark souls fights, I don't like dark souls type games to begin with, but you're not exactly expected to constantly dodge roll for 5sec and then have 2secs of attacks in that game if I recall right. Figured I'll try to build for some passive damage with minions and curses while I'm busy dodging stuff. Just got to manor and taking a break and will see how it goes later, this game is really mentally draining to play.

Also playing on PS5 (controller) the auto aim function (these exist because the aim stick is a vector and not a cursor) seems to make some very large assumptions. Everytime some monster puts a bone wall encircling me, or something similar around me, frost bomb and flame wall don't go where I want them half the time.

I played POE1 on PSN the whole time, and this feels slightly less intuitive on its auto-target assumptions. More like what Blizzard did with the console version of D2ressurected.

NeverSink's PoE2 Lite-Filter: Highlights all* important items, sounds, map icons, hides nothing
EDIT: published v0.1.1 - added sockets, not super happy with border, but works fine
Hi guys,
I wanted to publish a little mini-filter (since I've been asked non-stop to produce one).
After finishing the campaign and playing through maps for a day, I'm now feeling confident enough to create and publish one!
Feature highlights - Hides NOTHING. Everything is shown, don't worry about it :) - Minimal use of sounds, beams and fontsizes - Reuses important visual and sound queues from my PoE1 filter. - Highlights valuable drops, such as currency, maps, tablets - Introduces a unique color for 'special-gear-progression items' (such as runes) - Introduces a unique color for fragments, tablets etc. - Highlight for all important PoE2 currencies with minimal tiering - Highlight for rings, amulets and belts - Better gold visualization
NOT yet implemented (coming soon hopefully): - No filterblade support.. yet ;) - NO way to highlight 'tier' items (not supported by PoE as of now) - No easy/direct way to install on consoles - No strictness/style support
DOWNLOAD (currently only hosted on github): - Release v0.1.1 - now with sockets · NeverSinkDev/NeverSink-PoE2litefilter
INSTRUCTIONS: - NeverSink-PoE2litefilter/README.md at main · NeverSinkDev/NeverSink-PoE2litefilter
Contact & Support: - https://www.patreon.com/Neversink - if you want to support our work! - x.com - for updates (I also have a bsky) - Join the FilterBlade Discord Server!
Enjoy

Just got around to uploading my Count kill.....might be a bit to fully process on YT end, but I enjoyed it as melee.



Just got my first ascension points as Titan and am about to finish Act 2, will have to wait until tomorrow, unfortunately.
