PoE2DB: Path of Exile 2 Reddit Latest Discussion

Will PoOE1 Crafting come to POE 2?

More or less a discussion but also game feedback because of what ive learned recently. With 3.26 released and multiple end game characters in poe2 made, i decided to run a new poe1 toon. And wow, crafting is infinitely better in poe1! I know it sounds silly and obvious, but I had no idea. I knew 2's crafting was not really ideal at all, but 1's crafting is everything poe2 needs right now. Currently, there's very limited options on how to get geared for higher end content. I refuse to buy currency from 3rd party sites, so ive literally only killed abberoth once since the game came out....which probably doesnt sound like I play much but I have probably 400 hours in the game since the beginning. As it stands its nearly useless to "craft" items until whittles etc because youre far more likely to find what you need on trade with a quarter of the cost of time and currency spent to obtain it. In poe1 you can have shit gear, and literally add whatever you need to the items for easy currency, whether its resistances, damage, health, defenses etc. I honestly dont know how it didnt come shipped with the same crafting system.....

Any Palm of the Dreamer builds?

All I see is the same builds just using the scepter. Isn't there any benefit to taking some chaos nodes? Different support gems? Jewels? I just got it as a lvl 91 Deadeye LS/SF build. Any ideas how to get the most out of it? Im in standard. Character https://poe2.ninja/profile/Jeris%20Aragon-8412/character/Vomitursoul

Most memorable deaths

1. I had picked up the "take 5% damage for any hit" ailment in Sekhemas (so, not a great run so far), but for the ceramic fire and ice dudes, I got the: "You take no damage until the next room is complete" boon, Great, so I kill, them start picking up loot, and die to the fire embers on the ground! Apparently the "no damage" thing expires as soon as the bosses die! Good to know! 2. In one of my many T4 Xesht fight (I swear he'll drop Sacred Flame one of these days!), I backed into one of the short corridors to avoid the ice spears, on my way out the arms appeared. "No problem, I'll just dodge forward" only to get hit by the finger bullet rom an off-screen Xesht, which I easily tanked...but it nudged me back EXACTLY as the arm slammed, nope, can't take both!

One-shot T4 Xesht with Plasma Blast

I forgot about this. I’m on POE1 working on a poison build but this was the highlight of my POE2 : Dawn of Hunt mercenary build.

Finally 1200 divines later

It’s not finished yet I want to try to get one of the lower flat damages off and add a percentage damage on it

what is the difference between Path of Exile 1 and Path of Exile 2

Damage conversion works in different way. In poe 1 you can have pure physical damage 2h axe, scale it with increase physical damage passive nodes, more physical damage support gems, and than convert all that damage into fire and scale it from increase fire/elemental damage passives. In poe 2 it will only scale from fire/elemental damage passives, and conversion will work only for base physical damage.
