Can someone explain what "increased rarity of items found" does? Is that something like magic finde bonus?

It increases the rarity found, so better chance of higher level

Cool nice affix.
Game is really hard though, with the witch. No slaying through the hordes, more methodic gameplay.
I know people will crucify me but i wouldn't mind an easy mode, though.
Otherwise game is great. Really thought out gameplay.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Think there's a bug in Act 2. In the area named Mawdun Quarry there should be something called Tinker's Tools, but they don't seem to spawn at all.

clarky Rentahamster Can I get an invite? My character is Arpeggia.

 

[Rentahamster]

Holy hell I just spent 30K on a respec. I hope it was worth it. Time to sell sell sell

 

[DavidGzz]

Been watching some streamers play HC and die, only to start all over. Is there a HC ladder or something? If not, lol, they will be at it forever.

 

[amigastar]

What are the bars that fill up that surround the mana and Health orbs on your HUD?

I've watched a beginners guide and the Bar on the Mana Orb is Spirit which is used for buffs skills.

I regret it already hahaha.

In hindsight, giving up 30% global damage for 40% specific damage is not a good trade since it was too specific.
Also, giving up damage for CC was not a good trade since the best CC is "dead".

 

[drotahorror]

Maybe pause is in every mode?

I cannot imagine playing this game and not dying. To damn hard. But it has been ama

It's not super hard, but it's hard to judge when an enemy is super

It’s a different type of play style, a la WoW Classic Hardcore. Really makes it about the journey rather than just getting to endgame.

WE GO AGANE

When does it go F2P?

 

[Duellist]

When does it go F2P?

6-12 months

 

[DaleinCalgary]

6-12 months

So get it now it plays fine. And just the cheap version

 

[Pegasus Actual]

Played a couple of hours last night, not completely into it just yet but it was fun enough. Having troubles logging in now. Or rather troubles 'joining instance'.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Server went boom, 12k lads on queue.

It might be the patch they were talking about.

Would be cool, hope it gets a bit more stable.

Damn in the middle of boss fight….

 

[DaleinCalgary]

True, it has been 100% stable all day

 

[Arsic]

Had trial boss to 5% and this happens.

Fuck you GGG. Put up a god damn message saying servers will be brought down in X time. Not just rip the plug.

 

[j0hnnix]

Oh damn. I just finished Black Doves and servers are down.

 

[Elitro]

Game is amazing. I'm dying alot but it certainly isn't boring. Doing a shield warr build so probably much slower than other classes. All the bosses I killed I had to learn the patterns and I'm experimenting all the skills I get to try and be more efficient. Still only finished A1 but smells like goty to me when it releases.

 

[Mondai]

I started as a Witch, it’s rough at first but now I have good skills so I’m not dying as much.

Could you tell what good skills you mean?

 

[Mondai]

Could you tell what good skills you mean?

Ember Fusillade, Incinerate, Solar Orb, Enfeeble.

 

[amigastar]

Ember Fusillade, Incinerate, Solar Orb, Enfeeble.

I see, they all don't say nothing to me. But thanks i will look them up.

 

[GulfCoastZilla]

Tried a melee class at first and couldn’t survive that first boss outside of the first safe haven. Switched over to a caster and survived. So far so good

Absolutely love that opening when you select your character, brilliant.

 

[amigastar]

Funny to see the streamers dying left and right on boss encounters, lol. This game is hard.

 

[j0hnnix]

Weird thing I noticed. Once I got my twitch stuff today. On , what I think is my Xbox account I have 300 points.. if I buy something in the store on the website should it show up on my poe2 steam account?

 

[jshackles]

3.6 hours played, just had my second "hard crash" that required me to hold the power button on my PC down.

I like this game a lot, but man it seems a bit glitchy to me.

EDIT: and now a third time. Kinda sucks I'm past the refund window, this is frustrating.

So you are a <1.8hrs per crash kinda guy

I mean you’re paying for early access not a polished game

 

[Mikado]

Just noticed this checkbox... I was wondering why there was even less build diversity available than D3. What happened to all the cool skill interactions?

With that off, things open up considerably

Edit: ugh; it turns back on everytime you enter the skill screen...

 

[Hot5pur]

As soon as I get to Grelwood with any character I start having major crashes every so often.
Is this a known problem or perhaps just my hardware config? Hope they sort it out. Usually happens when moving zones.
Also why does the game ask you if you want the old instance or the new instance, it's so immersion breaking...

I like that option, old instance is the map already explored, new instance will generate a new one

 

[Salz01]

The game is good. Much better than D4. So much build diversity. And the environments so far are so much better. Just wish we could zoom in on console.

 

[clarky]

Hit a wall last night with the Monk at the end of act 1. Been a breeze until this point. Need to think about how to progress.

Few minor niggles. The text is way too small in places, even on PC. Unless i missed a resize option. No a biggie but could do with sorting at some point. Bet it's a lot worse 6ft from a TV on console.

The Map sucks balls. On one hand i like exploring but on the other id like the map to be a bit better at its job some times

The quest menu seems a bit limited and shit also right now, again im sure they'll improve it.

Other than that, this is GOTY for me by a mile. Unless the end game is bobbins then probably game of the gen. Cant believe its only half finished.

Its actually lived up to my insane level of hype, bravo GGG.

 

[Rentahamster]

It looks like the MTX store is working properly now. I was able to buy two guild tabs. I filled it with a bunch of stuff. Anyone in the guild, feel free to take.

 

[hinch7]

Dont start this before finishing indi, just an advice Take your time with indi tho

True still in early access so guess its not too bad if I put in on the backburner for a week or two.

I'll just miss some of the fun if some certain builds gets nerfs before I even get around playing it.

Having a blast with Indy though, absoutely brilliant.

 

[Jinxed]

Sometimes you can find a weapon that makes this game feel like Diablo for a while. Found a crossbow for my mercenary that one shots every mob and just killed two bosses in like 30 seconds.

Hit me up with a guild invite, didn't know we had one. Character's name is Ahndred

Hows the haptics on the PS5? Cant decide between the series x or ps5 version

 

[dreamstation]

Absolutely thrilled to find out that you can console share early access across two PS5's with one purchase like you can other games. Not sure why but I was under the impression that you couldn't. Disappointed that you can't play couch co-op with two separate accounts though. Hope they make that possible later on.

 

[Ocean Dweller]

The characters used durring EA will go to normal realm after EA. Same as eternal characters in Diablo 4

i mean, during ea wil they continually wipe characters?

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

Pretty sure pc/xbox mtx are linked, but ps5 aren’t linked with them when it comes to cross play

Worth considering if you play on pc as well

 

[Arsic]

PS5 seems to not be cross progression at all.

None of my pc characters are available.

 

[Dynasty8]

How are people getting so many extra keys online?

I never played PoE1, wanted to try this as a long time Diablo fan and love what I'm hearing. Might wait until the full release unless anyone has a free console or PC key to spare.
