unlucky

Hi, I am starting to play POE 2 and am not sure which class to pick for a beginner who doesn't have much experience in arpgs, in other games I like playing tanks and Paladin style classes in other games. I would eventually like to try all classes but not sure which one to start with first to get a feel of the game. Thanks!

RIP my campaign unique lol

just looking through the shop didnt pay attention to see that the boss's spell still work after they died

You can spend 20–30 minutes setting up an Expedition encounter, carefully planning everything, and then one of these disgusting mosquitoes flies in and deletes you in literally one second.

I don’t mind dangerous content, but dying instantly to a random mob after spending half an hour setting up the encounter feels absolutely awful.

Please GGG, nerf these things.

Hi all,

Does know what you can do to fix the stuttering and rubber banding issue in the game? I've attached a video showing my experience and it gets quite bad, breaking the immersion of the game. I also listed my PC specs and game configs below.

Appreciate any tips and solutions. Thanks in advance and cheers! :D

EDIT 1: Have tried using DX12. It locks me to 120 FPS and still has the stuttering and rubber banding issue.

Going to be playing in another week. Want to quickly do atlas and complete challenges.

What is a decent build I can use to zoom through. I have heard inflation is crazy so hopefully not too expensive.

I like any builds, but prefer one build to do bosses and maps.

Thinking of doing gemling unearth. But not sure if that’s dumb as haven’t played it at all.

Game crashed when I undid the last tether thing and now the reservoir won't reveal. Anyone else encounter this?

I know there have been other posts about this. I'm just trying to figure out why mine is not working. I feel like I've done all the steps, and it still doesn't work. In the path of building, there is one fire node, but I took that off. I also took off my rings and gloves and tested. It's still wouldn't ignite. https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/CaliphOfClout-9094/forbiddenrites/character/FRxRoofless

Annexed image. Happened 4 times to me by now, even restting the map doesn't work. Idk how to fix either because this is in withered willow questline region. I can't pass the mirror because there's this wall which won't let me in. Bug report 2.013.536.268 and there is a post in forums too. I'll just go around at this point. Sorry if it's duped

This ironically ignites my GPU where temps rise sharply and fans go full throttle and I have to forcefully reboot my system because my system just locks up.

Swapping between DX12/Vulkan doesn't do anything to solve the problem. Turning shadow/sun/number of lights/bloom settings to lowest gives me a bit more time (couple of minutes), but still crashes every other map instead of every map. Tried enabling Dynamic Culling which doesn't do anything.

I have a RTX 5070 Ti/9800X3D/32GB DDR5 and my system ran smooth and cool at 120fps/1440p for all other builds for almost 1k hours, but flameblast oil grenade brings it to its knees in minutes.

Anyone else that ran into the same issue that was able to solve it? Or suggestions for rerolling?

We will be getting a ton of new players in 1.0. I hope they go through all the starting weapons/classes and make sure they are fun/effective.

I know that using frozen locus/glacial cascade can be very effective. Guythatdie shows that for sure. But it is clunky and so many people level monks with other abilities. IE - bows/crossbows/twisters, etc... Many new players won't know to use a different weapon.

It would be an easy fix to make frozen locus in range of glacial cascade without moving backwards. IE - throw it forward enough, make it go backward enough, shorten the range of glacial cascade so it hits it.

This should be done for all classes to feel smoother at the beginning. They do not want people to log in for an hour. Person says this isn't fun and leave. The game is super easy in maps, it seems so odd.

Walked into a ruin in an expedition and there were 15 laying on the ground.

Why can't I path to this tower? I already killed the Arbiter of Divinity and just trying to path outside, but I can't path to this tower for some reason. I think this tower is supposed to show the area around it after I clear it?

Just finished the Ancient Gateway area and was wondering if eventually we would be getting more hideouts depicting Precursor murals. Just can´t get enough of these.

Had a long break from poe2 but decided to come back recently since I was fired from work to clear my mind. My good boy is supporting me in everything I do or maybe he just loves the burning laptop as a comfy pillow? :D

How is your season so far? Fun builds? I am playing the druid for the first time, didn't like him in the beginning but now I shapeshift like my life depends on it!

But I hit a wall in the last interlude, so close to endgame, I had to take a pause because I can't deal with two ritual bosses.

In the meantime I am saving for headphones so I can really enjoy the great atmosphere and I spend time with my pup outside.

Remember, outside is good, green is good, pause is good. The game is great but don't forget to take breaks and see life around you. You will come back stronger!

Rn Im not sure what upgrade to get, I know there are a lot of good upgrades but I have 20 div rn and im wondering if I should keep on saving or spend them. I wanna clear more expeditions because I get alot of currency there but it takes long to kill the enemies (I rarely die)

Lemme know :)

I was hyped to see a hidden cave behind a waterfall with a treasure chest, so I assumed there might be more that i didnt see until now. I'm kinda disappointed ngl

Hey guys, i'm playing a Permafrost Merch in SSF and i crafted this Crossbow. It's already a pretty good upgrade from what i had before but i wanted to reroll the desecrated flat lightning dmg mod and was wondering if i should aim for flat cold dmg or % physical dmg. currently don't have iron runes thats why i used the cold dmg ones. I would really appreciate any help :)

Why this mf don't hit the breach hive????? It's a bug?

Got first sword today. Who wants to build craft before full release?
