@ totally new myself! There’s a lot going on for sure but I feel as though I’m picking it up well enough. The tooltips included in this game are very helpful towards this. Really in the regard of recommendation it depends on what gameplay you enjoy in general. It’s a challenging game, so if you enjoy that then yes I would recommend it. I’m having a lot of fun with it to the point it’s difficult to put it down.
My beginner tips is to make sure you do the Crowbell in the Hunting Grounds and find Una's Lute in the Ogham Farmlands. Both give you 2 passive points, a total of 4, which is equal to 4 levels. This is huge when you're normally fighting the act one boss at level 15.
@@FinalFantasyXDen-br4to it’s ridiculously difficult. Fun but it’s a grind in the early levels. Early level grind is not dissimilar to other ARPG’s but this one has a big learning curve in my opinion.
@@FinalFantasyXDen-br4to as a beginner for arpgs (except 3-4 hours diablo 3) id say it depends on your frustration tolerance. Played 80 hours, tested every different starter class and got 2 chars to the second act but im stuck right now. I will brute force me through the campaign but i think its gonna take a while for me to understand everything. You can respec now if you make errors, but its quite expensive and i have to farm for gold sometimes. Im still liking it and see my learning as an invest in my gaming future, but i would suggest waiting for full release
I have watched several of these videos trying to learn this as a new player to the poe series. You have done a very good job of clearly explaining how this works. Thanks for the information.
If you salvage socketed items at the bench you get a shard which is a tenth of an Artificer's Orb. Buy cheap socketed items and salvage to get them. ALWAYS pick up socketed items and salvage.
I've watched many PoE2 beginner videos and they are all basically the same. However, this video showed me some detailed things no one else has mentioned. For example, around 24:24 you mentioned the nodes on the passive skill tree that shows what the increases would be if you select that node. I did not know that. Thanks. Much appreciated.
Thank you so much. This is amazing! You deserve more attention than this, hopefully as more people look up help or get the game, the views will increase.
Oxford, I know this seems basic but here is a tip when players are trying to play the witch then show them where wands staffs and scepter s go because if they use the staffs or wand it will unsummon the skeletons 💀 I played to level 7 and it kept taking away my summons
Ok you are talking about Weapon Swapping and Spirit Allocation - yes I dont play Witch BUT I heard about this issue in the Reddit forums - I had no idea this was a thing. I would have definitely warned about this. Basically, the 2 Weapon Sets are creating an issue early on where when you weapon swap it will unsummon minions. To fix this, go into your Skills Menu and make sure that your Skills are set to the Correct Weapon Set - 1 or 2 (or Both!).
The tool tips are very well done, it your new to POE or genre in general worth looking at for some detailed info to help you learn on your own after watching good videos like this.
Your one of the first videos I seen explain the ui ux. I don't have the game yet but watch people play and could not find what the ui ux meant. Things like that over shield. Thx
This is exactly why I decided to deep dive into to this video explaining as much as I could but for beginners. This video took me 4 days of editing but felt it was necessary to explain so many layers of this game to new players. Even players that may have never been interested in POE2 at all. This video is targeted at that audience.
I have a suggestion for new players. If you play using wasd or mouse and are still having trouble, try the controller. The dodging and everything was really difficult for me to get the hang of with the keyboard. I was always facing the wring way. Played Diablo with m and k and had no problems, not the case here. Controller was way way better.
Yeah I play Gamepad on the PC version but one thing I don't like is we can't use 3rd Party Price check tools as POE2 disables KBM functions when you select Gamepad at Login. I've mentioned this to GGG several times on Twitter. I'm hoping they can change this later down Early Access development.
Yeah these types of videos take me a long time. I'm gonna upload each section as individual videos and see how those do. I spent way too much time for my work not to be noticed.
i quit the game the other day its stressing me out because i don't understand certain aspects properly but im glad you made this guide i might give it another go, i keep going to make another character and just pressing quit. im trying to follow build guides, should i just go free roam and pick my spells and stuff myself?
Yeah I would honestly not watch these "build guides" you see on RUclips for now - no offense to them but the way they explain things is meant for veterans or players that just understand POE in general. Most NEW Players will hear these Guides and bounce as it is just way too complicated. This guide here was meant to lower the Barrier to Entry Ceiling a bit so that New Players wouldn't feel so inundated with everything thrown at them at once. I did the very best I could at breaking things down per section in hopes of New Players not quitting the game but embracing the Customization POE 2 has to offer. I livestream almost daily over on Twitch if you have questions - very friendly environment.
Does anyone now how I can change my gateway on console? I’m automatically logged in on game start and I can’t find any option to change it. I‘m in Germany and keep getting connected to Moskau, which I‘m not really comfortable with. Also there is one in a city right near me.
@ I found it. It’s in one of the menues if you open them from the start screen. I guess I had overlooked it previously, although it’s hard to see, font sizes on console are tiny 😅
Yeah I'm dying a lot too by my defenses straight suck and I know it - I need to start trading with other players if I want to get good soon. Crafting on my own will take way too long.

Thanks for all the help. Feel very lost as a new player starting out.
You're very welcome - hopefully the time stamps helped out for a later watch if you get stuck on something.
Not even 5 minutes in and already learning stuff I didn’t know. This is gonna be a very helpful video.
I've never played an ARPG. Do you recommend PoE2 for new players who want to try this genre?

Appreciate the kind words my friend - 4 days of editing makes it feel a lot less with this comment so thank you.
You can get 7 if you initially have 2 modifiers on a magic or 3 on a rare. That means they have an extra slot for mods.
If you salvage socketed items at the bench you get a shard which is a tenth of an Artificer's Orb. Buy cheap socketed items and salvage to get them. ALWAYS pick up socketed items and salvage.
im new to POE and i think that your explanation of the Game is amazingly good,clear,precise and no nonsense.Hats of to you man what a great Job.
Appreciate it, thank you 🙏
6 stash tabs are the same as 1 quad tab right now, so 6 tabs is less convenient but 50% more storage.

For example, around 24:24 you mentioned the nodes on the passive skill tree that shows what the increases would be if you select that node. I did not know that. Thanks. Much appreciated.

Thank you so much. This is amazing! You deserve more attention than this, hopefully as more people look up help or get the game, the views will increase.
Good stuff man! Stash tab sale is on today! I'm all sorted. Now just to find the time to play the damn game! lol!
Yeah man! Usually every other weekend on the Stash Tab Sale.

Wow thanks for the kind words! And yes, I 2nd that comment on how well the Tooltips are in the game - they are definitely there to help.
Thank you, This video really does deserve more views - useful information, clearly explained. I would share but don’t know any other gamers 😊
Thank you! You can share on any of your favorite socials no matter if its for gamers or not :) Getting this out there is all that matters
I've got no idea how to change the realm on console. As far as I can see there are no options to change that on PS5.
No Gateway options at the start for Ping?

@oxfordking well, shit. Haven't noticed that yet. That sucks.
Very informative video. Please keep up the great work. Learned so much I was doing wrong. Thanks again.
Appreciate the kinds words 🙏
I don't have hide login email on PC, why is this? @2:21
Im not sure on this one - I think its due to me using a Gamepad on the PC Version?
I don't have gampad options on PC, why is this? @2:21

Great vid , new to Poe , learned a ton
Awesome glad to here - Have fun in Wraeclast
Hell yeah Ox. Great video, can tell you put a lot of effort into it. Hope you go above the view count you wanted!
Not looking good - video may be coming down soon after 4 long days of editing /sigh
@@oxfordking Just keep the video up! It may gain traction or people like myself will want to see it again to see what we missed!
Also the settings are pretty much the same on PS5. They did a good job, we even get to see our fps and ms in options.
Oh nice, they added Metrics to the Console Version - that's awesome actually - thanks for sharing!
@oxfordking Yeah it's rare that games do that but we can see it in options. Nice touch :)
Very informative and would say borderline professional editing and presentation. Criminally low view count. Much appreciated!

@@oxfordking appreciate it man thanks ill stop by your stream soon and can ask some questions if i need 🙂
On pc, instead of R3 for explaination of words, you can press T.
Awesome! I'm glad you mentioned this - hopefully KBM players see this - Cheers 🍻
Does anyone now how I can change my gateway on console? I’m automatically logged in on game start and I can’t find any option to change it.
I‘m in Germany and keep getting connected to Moskau, which I‘m not really comfortable with. Also there is one in a city right near me.
I had no idea Consoles were locked in... :( I really hope someone here can help with this as it is a major issue with Latency.
@ I found it. It’s in one of the menues if you open them from the start screen. I guess I had overlooked it previously, although it’s hard to see, font sizes on console are tiny 😅
Yes it's on Xbox under General in the options menu.
Cool thank you
Thanks for all the info!
as you level up does the requirement to level up again raise
Yes
Views have 3x since my comment. Happy to see that :)
Yay! ngl I thought I was going to have to take this video down... you were the good luck charm 🍀
@oxfordking Aww thanks 😊
If I’ve already played poe2 what should I do about watching this video?
>be me 20 hours into the game watching this
Nice! Hope you found at least 1 thing in the guide helpful
@@oxfordking absolutely brother. appreciate it
Poe 2 is ten times harder than poe 1 im in lvl 31 warrior but love the game
Yeah I'm dying a lot too by my defenses straight suck and I know it - I need to start trading with other players if I want to get good soon. Crafting on my own will take way too long.
And this is only half the game. Sheesh
Yeah no kidding lol its huge
