Untrackable Stats

Why are there so many stats with values that we have no way to check? Certain thresholds, presence area, etc. We really need a more in-depth character page. Hopefully they add a way to track all these elusive stats. Feel free to correct if I'm missing something, please. But there are a good few stats I can't find anywhere.

Can't play PoE 1 anymore due to this game

I am a very long term player of PoE 1. I have at least 5k hours logged in it since open beta. I have enjoyed my time in it quite a bit. It is still a great game in many ways. But, eversince PoE 2 came out, I just can't play it anymore. It feels clunky, unresponsive, and generally very boring due to the gameplay of mostly holding one button with no dodging. I have really tried to get into the Merc league and the entire time all I can think is that I would rather be playing PoE 2. And during that time, the global chat is spamming "PoE 2 bad", "D4 > PoE 2" and so on. The whole thing makes me feel like I am taking crazy pills. Does anybody else feel this way? Or am I just cooked? I would love to still enjoy PoE 1 like before. But I just can't after having tasted the sweet fruit of the sequel.

Freeze Buildup Question

Trying to figure out (calc) the most optimal way to increase freeze build-up in end game; I'm not necessarily concerned with directly doing cold dmg per-se . I don't see freeze build-up calculations in Path of Building 2 anywhere. Not sure if it's a super difficult question; I already have some freeze build-up via passive notable nodes. If I had to pick one more, should I go for **Shattering** *(5pts investment)* or resist busting passives like **Exposed to the Cosmos** *(3 pts investment)*.

Warrior smith build/gearing help for pinnacles

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/b994p04a Just wondering what I should go for next. My main issue is bossing speed: currently, I rely on heavy stunning the boss (usually with break armor daze + sunder), then seismic cry, infernal cry, HoTG (procs shock), then Sunder crit with aftershocks. This does good damage, but getting the initial stun and setup takes sooo long on some bosses. And some bosses recover from the heavy stun and teleport/move away before everything lands. Survivability is not an issue. Mapping speed is kinda slow, but I can live with that. I'm not rich (about 5-6 div right now), so gear upgrades seem difficult. I was thinking of two gear upgrades: - A new mace (currently one is 540 DPS with +4 skills) - But maces with 700+ DPS and +6 skills are way out of my price range (50+ divs?) - Deepest Tower helmet - Would need to find at least +20 strength, +26 intelligence, and ~20% fire resists on other gear to wear the helmet, maintain Giant's Blood and keep max 90% res cap on everything. Could get expensive, fast to reshuffle gear. - But then could add execute to Sunder and respec 4 passives into the low-life damage boosting nodes (180% inc dmg). Open to any suggestions!

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.
