Path of Exile II

[Buck]

Path of Exile II Releases in Early Access tomorrow, December 6th, 2024. The price to get in is $30 for early access, but the game will be free if you wait for the official release (approximately 6 months to 1 year from now).

The game will feature 12 classes, with 3 subclasses each, for 36 unique playstyles. The early access will only feature 12 subclasses from 6 classes to start and will slowly add more until the full release. The 12 subclasses will be posted in the next post.

Who else is ready?

Not sure how farming in PoE2 is, but this is one of the big reasons I love PoE1. There are so many different farm strategies and each one of them can get you at least a handful of divines an hour. So even if you are only playing an hour or so a day, in about a week you have a pretty damn good character. Unless your build uses some unique item that breaks the game and skyrockets in price, you have to actively try to avoid currency strats to not get what you need.

If only POE had better graphics or they cared to update it then that would be great. It seems like POE2 is their new baby and the old one will get way less attention though. I did manage to get some upgrades on my toon for about 15 Divines, but I wish I could do different builds the cookie cutter Spark sorc is kinda meh now.

My optimistic hope is before they alienate their player base and kill the game, they finally get a second team and Mark heads PoE2 and Chris heads PoE1, or vice versa. Chris stepped back and became just CEO right when his vision of the game (PoE2) was just about to beta release... that's kind of weird to me. So I'm hoping he is/was burnt out and needed an extended vacation and comes back before his game implodes.

The legacy of Phrecia event looks cool, can't decide what build to play though.

The clear choice is manaforged arrow but I might actually try the stupid spider build

I'm spamming endless heist for the first day of the event. Hopefully I can find some good Replicas or hopefully a Simplex Amulet to get some divines and work towards mageblood. I'm gonna play a non-meta build and hopefully my gear will be cheap.
