I was getting the "Unknown object type serialized by server" periodically, but it was still letting me back in, but now I'm getting that error every single time I try to log in to the character. switching characters isn't fixing it, neither is deleting the config file. GGG says they are investigating the issue since the forums and reddit are flooded with it, but for now I'm bricked.

Meh I'd rather go out tonight which should tell you how I feel. Made it to the end of act 1 with huntress. Got a unique Spear that let's me only melee but massive early game damage, and it still feels meh. I can't imagine huntress without lucky drops feels better.

Don't know what ggg obsession with making the first 3 zones the worst gaming experience of the decade.

I'll keep slugging along this weekend

It's definitely not fun on leaguestart.

I'm not sure why they decided the most difficult part of the game is the first two acts, but here we are.

I am going to personally wait this one out for awhile. I think I got 4 chars 60+ and enjoyed the monk the most.

I do not have any desire to run acts 1 - 3 any further, and with the way the nerf bat swings, I would hate to find a great class and synergy I enjoy only for it to be neutered later. 3 months to basically release a single class, many notable nerfs, and no real change to content doesnt really move the needle for me.

Can’t log on to my character cause I keep crashing from that unknown object error. Then top of it warrior can’t ascend to smith of katava cause it’s not even in the game.

Yeah, nah. Made it to the Grim Tangle as melee, I'm not slogging through this again just to end up at an aimless endgame. Player recovery and mob speed do not match the type of gameplay they are trying to push.

Made it to Count Gooner and just cant get him with no gear. Not going to waste my weekend slamming a car door closed on my hand over and over again. Gameplay just doesnt feel good.

The difference between yesterday and today in r/PathOfExile2 quite stark. Now, some of it is deserved(lots of crashes and poor performance), some of it is reddit being reddit, but some of it is people reacting to having to do the campaign fresh again. I think some people called that the first time through in 0.1.0. This weekend's and next weekend's numbers are going to be very interesting.

I know my plans for bypassing the shitty drop luck with Concoction skills got completely fucked. So, I'm not sure what to do. Did they add anything to help with gear acquisition early on? You know, besides nerfing lower tier flat elemental damage.

I did a minion chronomancer through the campaign last league. Only witches have early minion passive points

1743820953177.png


so I took ES nodes on the sorc until I could get deeper in to the tree but I did start using minions immediately. That character was stronger with no minion passives than a witch with getting to spend their first nine points on 89% increased minion damage and 3% attack/cast speed.

Bind Spectre is so bad I can't believe they advertised it. You use Bind Spectre on a corpse and that gem is permanently that spectre. Every new one you want to test takes a new gem and jewelers. The spirit costs are high, the AI is sketchy and the damage does not impress. I've only tested a few but I can't see them ever beating out regular minions. A neat 80 spirit caster spectre with cool abilities

LOL

Where were the experienced PoE1 devs to deny that merge request? Must have snuck it in with another feature.

people saying spears are total shit. way underpowered.
And spectres bad yeah. binds the gem. and in general, weaker then regular minions.

I used time snap, and went chrono sorc again...


I went very defensive act 1. ES, ES, mana regen. cast speed.

Rattling scepter+focus.


"Convalescence" is pretty fantastic. like an ES flask on 30s cd.
its 30 spirit, can be gained at king of the mists.

can be supported with "persistence" for longer duration.
or with a scepter. "vitality" for 1% life regen, and/or clarity for "increased mana regen".

skills.
flame wall, frost bomb, frostbolt.

bombs aoe increase is notable.. as noted. its to its base aoe size, so will get magnified by increased aoe greatly. mag effect support.

flamewall. bit of added damage to frostbolts, and ignites. helps with cold resistant enemies. targeting can be a Pita, as enemies are just so much faster then the player, even when chilled. drop it on yourself to actually get bolts to proc it..

frostbolt. frost bolt pierces, has aoe chilled ground, and 100% more chill effect innate.
.8s cast, 13-19 damage=20dps

cold snap level 5 gem from executioner. cold snap can be cast on frostbolts, to burn down bosses.

oh, and dont put scattershot on frostbolt. it was always a major dps loss, only useful late game when shotgunning on walls. (or potentially to cast unleash coldsnap, and have 3 bolts you can proc)
scatter shot was even nerfed with its :less damage: increased from 20, to 35%.

I'm cruising with crossbow deadeye. Just using galvanic bullets and a bunch of grenades and finished act2 without any issues so far using random magic crossbows made from transmutes.

2h damage rolls were a big upgrade.

Game still feels pretty light on fun though.
