PoE2DB: Path of Exile 2 Reddit Latest Discussion

Performance keeps getting worse every day – what the hell is going on?

I’m at my wit’s end. It feels like the performance of Path of Exile 2 is getting worse every single day. I’ve done everything I can think of: - Switched in and out of different chat instances - Used /clear repeatedly - Deleted the shader cache from the Path of Exile 2 folder - Cleared out the shader cache from my GPU drivers - Bought a brand new CPU (5700x3d, I have an old am4 board) - Upgraded my RAM (32GB DDR4 CL16) - Considering updating my GPU (2070super -> 4070 super) - Deleted my Path of Exile 2 Steam Client.txt - Even drilled a hole through an 80 cm thick wall just to run a LAN cable because I thought it was a network issue! What the hell is going on?! The stuttering, high GPU MS, Shader Lags, FPS drops, and freezes are killing any joy I get from playing. I don’t want a patch with new content if I can’t even play the damn game in its current state. Is anyone else experiencing this steady performance degradation? Any clues? I’m honestly desperate here.

Ran into the opposite of the "dead link" bug - for some reason, I'm able to access the tower despite not having any links to it.

Is there any case where actually using 1H Maces is better than using STR Stacking 2H Maces + Giant’s Blood is ever worth it?

I mean come on now, why would you EVER use a one handed mace when you can equip a two-hander + shield? I mean i can mjolner being one of the exceptions since it has a unique effect, but damn, i find it hard to ever use one handers over two handers. I feel like one-handed maces or any other one hand weapons should have some abilities that rely on attack speed instead of the high damage but slow hit of two-handers.

Poe 2 vs 1

I hear the tree and weapon type get brought up a lot. I personally like it. Number 1 reason is build diversity and speed. I personally like it. As I feel it gives a fantasy trope from 1. I do think some skills should be used from other archetypes such as maces offer little bits of diversity, but I'd like to hear your opinion.

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.
