PoE2DB: Path of Exile 2 Reddit Latest Discussion

Oh boy what a drop

Cracked me up when I identified this. Have not had a single item drop with 6 T1 mods and then I get this T_T

Build advice or re-roll. Stormweaver

I have made my first character on POE 2 a while ago, so lately I have picked up the character again. And without much investigation I opted out for Stormweaver. I have reached endgame, just cleared my first T1 and T2 maps. I have started reading and searching in order to optimize the build, and found out the most of people say the build is dead, heavily nerfed. Some people reporting like losing 95% damage on the same set up. I guess I have 3 questions: Can ascension be rerolled? I think points are, not sure about the choice. Anyone has an alternative sorceress stormweaver build? Should I just re-roll and level another char?

Poe2 overheats my CPU

I don’t know why but, I recently started playing Path of Exile 2 on my new PC (Ryzen 7 9700x and RTX 5070) and the CPU overheats like crazy… Normally I get 65/67C while playing any game, max 70C, but sudenly this game gets me to high 70s or even 80C at some points… I know this is nothing too crazy for a ryzen 9 series but I wonder why this is the only game that does it. Also the fans get to max if i the CPU gets up to 75 so it gets pretty noisy overall. I’m using the directx 12 version, a friend told me to switch to Vulkan, that helped him with the same problem… Haven’t tried yet. Does anybody have the same problem??? Is it posible to get fixed once the game fully releases???

Any POE 1 players here to comments on differences?

Im a POE 2 only player and still deciding on trying out POE 1. I see a lot of people stating POE 1 is MUCH better than 2 - why is that? What's the differences between the two titles, and how could POE 2 improve to be on par?

Bosses way harder in 0.2?

Hi there, I'm back after a longer hiatus and it's the first time to play in 0.2. I didn't start a new league as I play ssf and I think the only thing different in the league is an economy reset? However I try to level a Huntress using twink gear and while she shreds through trash mobs, bossing is a nightmare. It's far more tedious than any of my other twinks, I levelled in 0.1 who all just breezed through the campaign and mostly oneshot all bosses there. Now: are bosses way harder now? Do I have a bad build? (Lightning Arrow: https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/twink-lightning-arrow-deadeye-leveling-guide) I have all the uniques recommended, have all gems at maxlevel (compared to mine), try to keep my quiver as good as possible .... but Bosses take aaaaages. Any ideas how I could make bossing more bearable? I'm in A3 and the swamp witch makes me want to quit (and I flattened her on my Deadeye and Stormweaver twinking in 0.1).

I need help dissecting this build for replication

https://poe2.ninja/builds/dawn/character/bak301-7665/StrongKab?i=33&search=items%3DPalm%2Bof%2Bthe%2BDreamer I was looking at ways to incorporate the new chase unique Palm of the Dreamer and stumbled upon this person’s build. I love fire spells and ember fusillade feels really fun to use (minus the wildcards proc fishing). The tooltip seems respectable, the bulk too, however I don’t see how this ascendancy benefits this build at all. Would the blood mage or even gemling/invoker be better for this kind of build?

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.
