The craziest thing is that it's 6 classes with 2 ascendancies each in EA, but for full release it'll be 12 classes with 3 ascendancies each. That's 36 different ascendancies with no limits on skill gems you can use. The builds are endless, I can't wait to see all the builds and craft some of my own, so frickin' hyped.
@@WexssaLoot I love paladins and summoners so I'll be doing something similar to those. The only thing is that neither of them have a very dedicated ascendancy, or at least not yet.

@@WexssaLoot If you're able to come to a decision on one of them, combine it with the skills from the other 👍 I'm gonna try to play every ascendancy before EA is over. It will consume my life ahhhhh

Welcome Exile! I'm sure others have mentioned it, but the developers Grinding Gear Games were formed with the specific goal of creating a worthy successor to Diablo 2 before Blizzard ever even announced D3. So any similarities you see are very much intentional. The PoE/PoE2 devs are the biggest D2 superfans of all!
200th subscriber! I love a good youtube recommendation at 4 in the morning! I've been playing Diablo since 1998 when the butcher scared me out of my mind on a D1 demo disk!

its always fun to see someone new to the franchise watch these videos. its like watching a toddler in a toy store haha. i myself am at least as excited for the game as i was for birthdays in my childhood.
D2 is also my favourite game. I have over 2k hours in POE1 and can't wait for the new one in a couple of days! Looking forward to following your new channel.

The weapons swapping can be bount to certain skills, wich means that everytime you cast a Lightning skill, it will change to the Lightning Staff, and everytime you cast a fire spell, it will change to the fire staff, no need to switch manually.
I love Necromancer in Diablo 2 so seeing the evolution of Necromancy in a form of Witch in POE2, this made me teared up ngl. And the fact that you could also summon the Bosses that you defeated, Oh God this is the best innovation for Necromancy Class that I dreamt of.
@@WexssaLootits gonna be only 1 minion because that resummon is a 'support skill gem' and you can only use 1 of it. Hmmm there are still other permanent minions like specters.
@@xenodd5182 well, they have mentioned that there 2 types of minions, persistent and duration based. the persistent ones you need to reserve spirit to summon them, and will resummon themselves after a short duration (i think its 5 seconds), i skeletons and i think specters are in this category. the duration based you have to manually summon them, and they have some sort of summon requirement. zombies needs corpses to summon, the raging spirit skulls i think needs you hit an enemy with a fire spell. and from what i've seen, there is not 'resummon support support' as the resummon part is built into the minion skill itself if they do so.
Never played an ARPG like diablo. But will be starting with poe2.

Idk.. sorcerer looks amazing. Theres so many good choices its crazy. Help me 😭
@@WexssaLoot your video and reactions were awesome btw 😂 theres too many good choices. Except for the pathfinder you singled out. In a recent poll only 2% of players chose it out of all 12 EA ascendencies. I like the monk but ugh i just cant choose! 😂
Just wait for at least a day for players to get in and watch streamers or guides. Play what you see is cool, you will never go wrong with it as the build designs now are more forgiving than the previous game because you can refund passive skill tree points using a bit of gold coins. So you enhance any build that you want.
Literally every minute in this gameplay video : This is gonna be my build!! Hahahah. Makes us feel like children again , the possibilities, the wonder of it all, truly the GOATED and worthy D2 successor. Its indeed history been written here, we never saw anything close to what has happened here, and we've been waiting for it since the first two diablo games !! Let's gooo!
Enjoy your poe journey! As a poe vet, I could give you a lot of tips, but don't wanna overdo it 😆I will give you one: read what things do. Everything is categorized and intuitive. People tend to overthink a lot in this game, whereas it's not that complicated! Good luck~
Please keep making more videos once the game early access begins! I played D1 a lot, and D2 a ton more. Played D3 for less than a year cuz once I tried PoE1 I was hooked! But I played basically every other Isometric ARPG since the older ones up to the new ones like Titan Quest, Dungeon Siege 1 and 2, Torchlight 1, 2, 3 and Infinity, Wolcen and much more. D4 I played for less than a month, so disappointing. Only game in the genre that I played more than D2 was PoE1 cuz it was the closest to D2 I ever seen. It looks like PoE2 will be even better and will be the king of the genre for years. I'm so hyped! Hey, you should post a link to this video in the PoE2 reddit, and also on the PoE1 forum, and twitter. A lot of players will be interested in seeing a D2 player reacting to PoE2, since most of us came to PoE from Diablo as well.
Welcome to Wraeclast exile! Here's to a great journey in PoE2 from someone who has probably way too many thousands of hours in PoE1 and is unreasonably excited for the sequel! 🥂 My first three characters I am planning to play are a stormweaver (sorc ascendancy) built around Ball Lightning and the cast on shock skill triggering Lightning Warp, second one I want to try building a minion army using the Gemling Legionnaire (Merc Ascendancy) and finally go full "Tyrael take the wheel"-build with Flicker Strike monk (the skill you see in the video towards the end of the reveal stream when the monk just kinda... goes all over the place really quickly. That's a skill in PoE1 which literally translates to: You kill your enemies or you end up in the middle of the pack of them and die yourself. 😂)
@WexssaLoot Same! Still working on that Diablo 2 Resurrected platinum troohy though (Level 99 Hardcore)! I'm so rusty! 😂 Maybe I should just remake my poison Necro, I have no doubt he could do it
A note for those just seeing this. POE2 WILL be free to play. When it hits full launch. We are heading into early access right now, and you have to pay for that. Long time POE1 players who have spent at least $140 in lifetime spending on a single platform will get access automatically. Anyone else who wants in will need to spend at least $30 to get a key. Though that also comes with points for the microtransactions. I suggest that if you do this and are new to the game to save the points for stash tabs.
So, in POE1 there is a class called shadow which could ascend into an assassin. It was extremely common for this class to use shadow for your trap build. I’m not sure if they’re going to bring assassin back, but I’m pretty sure they will bring something similar to shadow back. We still have six more classes coming.
Shadow is confirmed to be one of the 6 incoming classes. And I would imagine that they would still with Trickster, Saboteur and Assassin for it's ascendancies just like in POE 1 but probably be changed up to fit POE 2. It'll be Templar, Shadow, Druid, Duelist, Huntress and Marauder for the 6 incoming classes. And who knows they might even bring the Scion back at some point.
@@phoenixx913 well, there is a good chance they wont come back with the same names, but will have atleast similar feel to them. probably one being a crit/charge based, then one focused on high actions/evasion to help with traps and the like, and potentially one for chaos/dot.
D2 for sure was in a class of it's own, played D1 on my firs PC and PS1, then when D2 released that was my go to, not sure how many 1000s of hours i spent on it, but i got into the arpg genre for life xD there are some great ones, PoE1 have like 2900 hrs atm, but Last Epoch, Titan Quest, Torchlight 2 and Sacred1/2 was some really good ones as well.
played a bit of last epoch it was ok but still it was missing something, and D2 i dont even know how many hours i have must be legit min 10k H no jokes played from 9-10 yrs old all the way to a teenager and still play it now LOL
You know they did a great job when you change your starter character after they reveal each Ascendancy! hahaha I didn't expect less from GGG, they're truly gamers who loved D2 and took it upon themselves to continue it's legacy. I have over 10k hours in PoE 1 and I can't wait to invest more into PoE 2. I'm going for Blood Mage as my first attempt while I wait for the Druid to be released and transform into different animals. The best to you, yours and the folks in the comments.
@@Fabian_Lobo i saw druid was coming next aswell and was one of my fav class in D2 with sorc and assasin, sooo im really pump for all the builds will be able to do!! Appreciate the love and you taking the time to comment and share your gaming experience ❤️ see you out there sir!!
Worth noting it' will be 3 Ascensions to pick from per class, but only 2 per available on early access launch. So at full release you will have 12 classes with 36 Ascensions to choose from. Not to mention a TON more skills than will be in EA as well.
Just so you know the 6 additional classes that will come when the game is officially released are Templar Duelist Huntress Druid Shadow Marauder Each of the 12 classes will actually have 3 ascendancies ( at the official launch ) so altogether 12 main classes with 36 ascendency classes and on top of that any class can use any of the other classes skills so long as they meet the stat requirements ( and weapon requirements for some skills ) If you have the INT stats you can totally take skills from the sorceress and use them with your warrior just as an example. Or you could play the shadow class and mix it with ranger skills. So you can literally homebrew classes pretty much you'll have literally hundreds of active skills to choose from along with many hundreds of support skills to modify your other skills with then there's meta skills that you can socket other active skills into. And over 1,500 passive skills on the skill forest for all the classes to choose from. As for what I'll play hmm in early access I'll probably play all the classes in order to get ideas for when the game officially releases but for early access I'll probably main the invoker monk and titan warrior. But once the game actually fully releases I'm gonna make a duelist slayer and turn him into a magic swordsmen hybrid with dex. Since that's what I main in the current path of exile game. Also yes you can explode corpses there's actually a pair of unique boots that will be in path of exile 2 that cause corpses you run over to explode and while I don't know if it'll be a skill in POE 2 it is a skill in POE 1.
Welcome to the world of POE, where any items you have seen so far is at best useful. Modifiers and builds actually go wayyyyy beyond what they have shown ^^'
@@WexssaLootwe dont "find" insane gears, we "craft" them,my girl😅. And that is the most awsome way to enjoy game when u made 1 insane gear byself.....or buy it🤣
The release will be free to play. The Early Access requires a special key. The Key can be bought for $30 or gifted to you for your devotion to PoE1. But if you want the game completely free, you still have to wait for full release which might take as much as another full year.
Beside 6 chars on EA with 2 ascendancies ,there still 2 chars will come later are Shadow and Templar the-oldman-without-pants in PoE 1 that i very love to make builds around them😅(also the Druid). By the way, Witch who go to Infernolist -necromancer gonna be BURN all the world by herself and her platoon😆
if poe2 is d2 on crack then poe1 is on space dust or something. the power creep of poe1 is literally insane, hopefully we get to something half as good in poe2 in the future.
I been playing D2 for 20 years ranked #1 on LoD once with my hammerdin when I was 15. Played Median XL for years instead of D3 cause it was so shit started playing PoE 1 during closed beta and have been playing it ever since. I have nothing but trust and respect for GGG and their vision to create the greatest arpg ever.
Welcome to Wreaclast, D2 exile. After I dropped a perfect Mara's, I considered D2 100% completed for me and went full PoE 1 player only. Can't wait to main PoE 2 for a decade. I recommend talkative tri's guild for PoE 2. Good way for someone new to the game to get some good info
@ ya i been watching his video i really like him im definatly wanna dive in blond and learn thing like we did back in the day then ill check out more content ! But ya when you fond your holygrail in D2 its time to switch🤝
@WexssaLoot ohh totally agree. Blind runs with every ascendency to figure everything out. But we gonna be playing this game for a very long time after this. I loved my guild in D2 and definitely plan on fostering a sense of community for new players and veterans alike. Another reason why I love PoE the playbase is great. And yeah that ammy was worth 40 mules of HR if I traded it 😂
"Every class has two ascendancies." Three. Twelve classes. Three ascendant versions each. For free. Activision/Blizzard cannot compete with something so majestic. Also, playing a gemling merc. 103%
Just sad that you don't seem to be aware that the spiritual sequel to D2 already came out 10 years ago called Path of Exile. And it's a free to play game just like this one will be once it releases out of early access in late 2025 good reaction though. Welcome to the community. ^_^
I guess you were talking when he said it in the video but when the game comes out in late 2024 not only are they adding six more characters during the early access so it could be in a month or two depending on how soon they finish they might just release an extra class every month or something of the early access. But the thing that you missed is they're adding six more classes but they're also going to have three ascendencies for every class so 36 different ascendencies in the game at 1.0
Ya literally the orb charge around the monk same as d2 assassin :) it was one of my favorite class in D2 so its definatly gonna be my first or second pick!!
@@WexssaLoot ehhhh I just find a build and follow it and leave the heavy thinking to the smarty pants who know the skill tree like the back of their hands and know the difference between "20% More" and "Increased by 20%" modifies. I just look at builds and be all "Oooh that looks fun" or "Oh fuck that's expensive." and keep looking till I find something that isn't demanding of me to participate in trading cause I have shit for luck. If I play SSF, I get currency pouring out my ears, but if I'm not playing SSF, I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel for any currencies. I barely know anything about the game but I enjoy the hell out of it xD POE 2 is gonna be a struggle for me cause 1, I die A LOT in these kinds of games, and 2, no guides to follow xD. I love minions so I'm gonna be playing the Witch. Might play Sorceress later for a zappidy zip zap build. I love zapping hordes of enemies, and slaughtering them with minions.
It will be free to play at the full release next year. But for 30 bucks I think it's worth to buy a early access key for the amount of content it has. Also the endgame looks awesome!
I think its too early for me to say its better than D2, but I'm enjoying it so far. Last Diablo clone I played hardcore was Grim Dawn and I got a lot of enjoyment out of that game but I could see this being better in the long run gameplay wise, but the story for PoE2 so far is really boring and cookiecutter. Grim Dawn's narrative/ campaign was really good. We shall see when its finished I guess 🤷
I played a bit of grim dawn of i recall but didnt get into it, for me D2 will always stay the game a spend playing hours and hours has a teenager play over and over and appreciate to this day! But poe2 got this next gen feel that i really like! So far so good but nothing replace D2 in a way hahah🤝
Not you mistakingly thinking theres only 2 ascendancies for all classes and then talking over the exact part where he says theres 3 ascendancies for each class lol
There a part before the video where im only talking about EA , so my discussion with them was still on EA and not full release … i didnt unclude it in the video some of them where new to the arpg so didnt want to overwhelm them with 10000 detail
Welcome to hell--errr, Wraeclast--AKA fantasy Australia. Which is...okay, fine...it's also hell. But it's a PRETTIER hell =P. But yeah PoE2 is definitely taking some cues from D2. Sorceress is lifted right out, but made prettier. Stormweaver is all sorts of hype hype hype. Unfortunately, the ranger doesn't look anywhere near as gorgeous as the D2 Amazon :(
Uh no . Poe1 was a D2 clone , that was the "Better" D2 but player numbers never reached Diablo levels . Poe2 is more D2 pace with D4 co-op menus and couch co-op. Poe2 is a better poe1 and Monk is just like D3/Immortal Monk like Tempest bell is wave of light , not new 😂 Me and brother gonna play co-op on PS5 But no it's not another D2 😊
What is gonna be your first class you guys pick? let me know

Long time POE1 players who have spent at least $140 in lifetime spending on a single platform will get access automatically. Anyone else who wants in will need to spend at least $30 to get a key. Though that also comes with points for the microtransactions. I suggest that if you do this and are new to the game to save the points for stash tabs.
looking forward to youre new poe 2 videos, welcome exile
So, in POE1 there is a class called shadow which could ascend into an assassin. It was extremely common for this class to use shadow for your trap build. I’m not sure if they’re going to bring assassin back, but I’m pretty sure they will bring something similar to shadow back. We still have six more classes coming.
Shadow is confirmed to be one of the 6 incoming classes. And I would imagine that they would still with Trickster, Saboteur and Assassin for it's ascendancies just like in POE 1 but probably be changed up to fit POE 2.
It'll be Templar, Shadow, Druid, Duelist, Huntress and Marauder for the 6 incoming classes. And who knows they might even bring the Scion back at some point.
@@phoenixx913 well, there is a good chance they wont come back with the same names, but will have atleast similar feel to them. probably one being a crit/charge based, then one focused on high actions/evasion to help with traps and the like, and potentially one for chaos/dot.
D2 for sure was in a class of it's own, played D1 on my firs PC and PS1, then when D2 released that was my go to, not sure how many 1000s of hours i spent on it, but i got into the arpg genre for life xD there are some great ones, PoE1 have like 2900 hrs atm, but Last Epoch, Titan Quest, Torchlight 2 and Sacred1/2 was some really good ones as well.
played a bit of last epoch it was ok but still it was missing something, and D2 i dont even know how many hours i have must be legit min 10k H no jokes played from 9-10 yrs old all the way to a teenager and still play it now LOL
You know they did a great job when you change your starter character after they reveal each Ascendancy! hahaha
I didn't expect less from GGG, they're truly gamers who loved D2 and took it upon themselves to continue it's legacy.
I have over 10k hours in PoE 1 and I can't wait to invest more into PoE 2.
I'm going for Blood Mage as my first attempt while I wait for the Druid to be released and transform into different animals.
The best to you, yours and the folks in the comments.
@@Fabian_Lobo i saw druid was coming next aswell and was one of my fav class in D2 with sorc and assasin, sooo im really pump for all the builds will be able to do!! Appreciate the love and you taking the time to comment and share your gaming experience ❤️ see you out there sir!!
6K hours in POE1 since 2017... can't wait for Friday
@@Viccerz 6k is amazing !! 6k more to go 🤝
I’m surprised the monk doesn’t have a “I am the wind” skill
Worth noting it' will be 3 Ascensions to pick from per class, but only 2 per available on early access launch.
So at full release you will have 12 classes with 36 Ascensions to choose from. Not to mention a TON more skills than will be in EA as well.
it will be fun lots of content
Just so you know the 6 additional classes that will come when the game is officially released are
Templar
Duelist
Huntress
Druid
Shadow
Marauder
Each of the 12 classes will actually have 3 ascendancies ( at the official launch ) so altogether 12 main classes with 36 ascendency classes and on top of that any class can use any of the other classes skills so long as they meet the stat requirements ( and weapon requirements for some skills ) If you have the INT stats you can totally take skills from the sorceress and use them with your warrior just as an example. Or you could play the shadow class and mix it with ranger skills.
So you can literally homebrew classes pretty much you'll have literally hundreds of active skills to choose from along with many hundreds of support skills to modify your other skills with then there's meta skills that you can socket other active skills into. And over 1,500 passive skills on the skill forest for all the classes to choose from.
As for what I'll play hmm in early access I'll probably play all the classes in order to get ideas for when the game officially releases but for early access I'll probably main the invoker monk and titan warrior. But once the game actually fully releases I'm gonna make a duelist slayer and turn him into a magic swordsmen hybrid with dex. Since that's what I main in the current path of exile game.
Also yes you can explode corpses there's actually a pair of unique boots that will be in path of exile 2 that cause corpses you run over to explode and while I don't know if it'll be a skill in POE 2 it is a skill in POE 1.
yes but its far ahead so i was not talking about actual release just the early access
lmao I love how she goes crazy for skills shown here that we've had in PoE1 for 10 years now 😂
@@AllenC1x ya but poe 1 you need a PHD just to start the game 😂😂😂
Poe 2 looks crazy game of the year already.
10! Years of awesome gaming.
We definatly have 10 yrs of content ahead
easy subscribe. love your passion.
@@FonWin it mean the world to me ! I found my gaming familly 🤝🥹
"Grinding some Gear", I see what you did there ;)
oh boy much to learn much to enjoy for sure!
Very!
This title is so funy that im can laugh all day long
Im so pumped!
SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It's 3 acendencies for each class not two. It's 2 in early access, every 3 months they are going to add more.
Yes ive seen the recent video !!
Can't wait!
Dude its gonna be nuts 🥜
You have good taste in games ;) The Poe2 server is still down at this time though...
@@Thinks... i know im waiting :) hopefully o can get in before work :)
PoE2 is going to be a life-consuming game. I have given notice to my family that I will be existing in a pocket dimension for several weeks at least.
@@zebrion5793 same told my friend gg ill see you in january
Actually 12 classes with 3 Ascendancies each
Welcome to the world of POE, where any items you have seen so far is at best useful. Modifiers and builds actually go wayyyyy beyond what they have shown ^^'
I love finding gear lololol
@@WexssaLootwe dont "find" insane gears, we "craft" them,my girl😅. And that is the most awsome way to enjoy game when u made 1 insane gear byself.....or buy it🤣
The release will be free to play. The Early Access requires a special key. The Key can be bought for $30 or gifted to you for your devotion to PoE1. But if you want the game completely free, you still have to wait for full release which might take as much as another full year.
@@WardenDios already got my key ;)
Beside 6 chars on EA with 2 ascendancies ,there still 2 chars will come later are Shadow and Templar the-oldman-without-pants in PoE 1 that i very love to make builds around them😅(also the Druid). By the way, Witch who go to Infernolist -necromancer gonna be BURN all the world by herself and her platoon😆
if poe2 is d2 on crack then poe1 is on space dust or something. the power creep of poe1 is literally insane, hopefully we get to something half as good in poe2 in the future.
not 2 ascendency's it's 3. characters have 2 during early access, but at full launch there is. 3.
I been playing D2 for 20 years ranked #1 on LoD once with my hammerdin when I was 15. Played Median XL for years instead of D3 cause it was so shit started playing PoE 1 during closed beta and have been playing it ever since. I have nothing but trust and respect for GGG and their vision to create the greatest arpg ever.
@@dimitriasimov356 from a fellow d2 player im really exited for poe2 🤝🤝
Welcome to Wreaclast, D2 exile. After I dropped a perfect Mara's, I considered D2 100% completed for me and went full PoE 1 player only. Can't wait to main PoE 2 for a decade. I recommend talkative tri's guild for PoE 2. Good way for someone new to the game to get some good info
@ ya i been watching his video i really like him im definatly wanna dive in blond and learn thing like we did back in the day then ill check out more content ! But ya when you fond your holygrail in D2 its time to switch🤝
@WexssaLoot ohh totally agree. Blind runs with every ascendency to figure everything out. But we gonna be playing this game for a very long time after this. I loved my guild in D2 and definitely plan on fostering a sense of community for new players and veterans alike. Another reason why I love PoE the playbase is great. And yeah that ammy was worth 40 mules of HR if I traded it 😂
@ brother😂😂😂 GG
"Every class has two ascendancies." Three. Twelve classes. Three ascendant versions each. For free. Activision/Blizzard cannot compete with something so majestic.
Also, playing a gemling merc. 103%
the game is so goodd
Just sad that you don't seem to be aware that the spiritual sequel to D2 already came out 10 years ago called Path of Exile. And it's a free to play game just like this one will be once it releases out of early access in late 2025 good reaction though. Welcome to the community. ^_^
I guess you were talking when he said it in the video but when the game comes out in late 2024 not only are they adding six more characters during the early access so it could be in a month or two depending on how soon they finish they might just release an extra class every month or something of the early access.
But the thing that you missed is they're adding six more classes but they're also going to have three ascendencies for every class so 36 different ascendencies in the game at 1.0
Like any d2 player i open POE and saw the skill tree and got scared 😂
Same here. Nothing seemed to live up to d2 for me. But im all in for PoE2.
glad to see i was not the only one feeling this way.... i felt so let down
I dont think i'll stop playing untill GTA VI drops
If you like diablo 2, David Brevik is heavily involved with GGG and multiple of the OG diablo 2 devs work for them as well.
@@newax_productions2069 amazing 🤝🤝
wow ur right it is like assassin. i am torn between monk and sorceress
Ya literally the orb charge around the monk same as d2 assassin :) it was one of my favorite class in D2 so its definatly gonna be my first or second pick!!
Ya my 2 picks are monk or sorc dont know wich one tho😅
Blizz : you want 1 new class ? Buy our DLC 50$ 🐄$🐄$🐄
GGG : 36 ascendencies for free 💪
literally their like HOLD MY BEER... F activision
Invoker monk, hopefully power charge generation is good enough to sustain the most fun skill in the game, flicker strike
noted
One Of US! One of US!
With the current ascendancies available I think Mercenary Gemling Legionnaire is probably the best option for minions lol.
Mercanary looks insane with explosive grenades ngl
Someone once called PoE "Diablo 2 on meth" and PoE 2 is looking to be just as insane.
I say in the video its diablo 2 on crack 😂😂😂
nice comment, you are indeed a veteren ARPG palyer
Like i said in the video has so many hours in D2 but not path of exile :)
"This is like Diablo 2 but on crack!"
No, that game was Path of Exile. This is Path of Exile but on crack!
PoE 1 like just better.
going huntress when that shit comes out is like java ama from d2
OMG YESSS javazon where the absolut best IYKYK
what do you think about creating a discord server for yourself.
Already have one will post the link today :)
@@WexssaLoot cheers
@@madarauchiha116 actually making a new one right now for us to nerd on what we find in game etc will be ready by friday lock in!!

@ working on it now should be ready a little later ill post the link directly here :) i got you 🤝🤝
Welcome on Wreaclast exile! Remember to always respcet Krillson, Zana and Le Toucan! Haha 😅 Stay sane exile! 😊
The Monk reminds me of The Diablo Immortal Monk. Great class in a very bad game because of P2W.
diablo immortal is such a piece of garbage
p2w is fucking awfull lol
POE 1 is Diablo 2 on crack. POE 2 is POE on even more crack
@@gaahinalover ya poe1 you need a whole level of knowledge just to start the game ! I feel poe2 way more accessible!
@@WexssaLoot ehhhh I just find a build and follow it and leave the heavy thinking to the smarty pants who know the skill tree like the back of their hands and know the difference between "20% More" and "Increased by 20%" modifies. I just look at builds and be all "Oooh that looks fun" or "Oh fuck that's expensive." and keep looking till I find something that isn't demanding of me to participate in trading cause I have shit for luck. If I play SSF, I get currency pouring out my ears, but if I'm not playing SSF, I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel for any currencies. I barely know anything about the game but I enjoy the hell out of it xD POE 2 is gonna be a struggle for me cause 1, I die A LOT in these kinds of games, and 2, no guides to follow xD. I love minions so I'm gonna be playing the Witch. Might play Sorceress later for a zappidy zip zap build. I love zapping hordes of enemies, and slaughtering them with minions.
@@gaahinalover ya i get you! Also poe2 seem like anything is viable to start so hopefully we can just have fun discovering the game
lock in
poe 2 is good for fresh player
im going monk only 2 more days lets fucking go
only 2 more days we can do it
@@WexssaLoot lets go its gonna be a genre changing release
@@tuckerbrown-w5p YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
As a veteran PoE player i find it funny how people react to new content,.. this is just basic stuff from GGG 😂
i play Diablo IV I'm not sure if this game is for me but i think i want to try it .... 🤔
It will be free to play at the full release next year. But for 30 bucks I think it's worth to buy a early access key for the amount of content it has. Also the endgame looks awesome!
I get the concern but also for 30 $ like its a no brainer for me and you help a small compagny that has passion
@@EduardoMedradodeAndrade i agree im getting hyped, PoE2 community seems very welcoming and nice, hope you enjoy the game so much
Sorc, stormweaver ....then witch minions then the warrior !
ya same i think
im going blood knight witch vampire style & gemling
@@dust921 sounds like a cool fucking build ngl
I think its too early for me to say its better than D2, but I'm enjoying it so far. Last Diablo clone I played hardcore was Grim Dawn and I got a lot of enjoyment out of that game but I could see this being better in the long run gameplay wise, but the story for PoE2 so far is really boring and cookiecutter. Grim Dawn's narrative/ campaign was really good. We shall see when its finished I guess 🤷
I played a bit of grim dawn of i recall but didnt get into it, for me D2 will always stay the game a spend playing hours and hours has a teenager play over and over and appreciate to this day! But poe2 got this next gen feel that i really like! So far so good but nothing replace D2 in a way hahah🤝
Diablo2 on crack is PoE, PoE2 is Diablo2 on space rocket )
@@Sonofhroft hahaha love that
Not you mistakingly thinking theres only 2 ascendancies for all classes and then talking over the exact part where he says theres 3 ascendancies for each class lol
There a part before the video where im only talking about EA , so my discussion with them was still on EA and not full release … i didnt unclude it in the video some of them where new to the arpg so didnt want to overwhelm them with 10000 detail
Since they said full release is gonna be what 6 months a year we dont really know yet…
@@WexssaLoot Well we do though, every class is supposed to have 3 ascendancies. They even say that in the video you watched.
@@GhostManPRO yes but again we have no clue when full release come out that all :)
@@WexssaLoot Yes we do? They have a roadmap....
Nothing to do with diablo2❤
I know but its where my background is :) and GGG are heavily fan of d2 hehe :)
Welcome to hell--errr, Wraeclast--AKA fantasy Australia. Which is...okay, fine...it's also hell. But it's a PRETTIER hell =P.
But yeah PoE2 is definitely taking some cues from D2. Sorceress is lifted right out, but made prettier. Stormweaver is all sorts of hype hype hype.
Unfortunately, the ranger doesn't look anywhere near as gorgeous as the D2 Amazon :(
hahaha 🤗 but ya ranger might need love i havent seen alot of creator play her tho
Uh no .
Poe1 was a D2 clone , that was the "Better" D2 but player numbers never reached Diablo levels .
Poe2 is more D2 pace with D4 co-op menus and couch co-op.
Poe2 is a better poe1 and Monk is just like D3/Immortal Monk like Tempest bell is wave of light , not new 😂
Me and brother gonna play co-op on PS5
But no it's not another D2 😊
aha something /someone new.... interesting, lets see what you gonna have to offer these days
@@reneindlekofer1946 time will tell but expect alot of looting 🤝
It free ❤
prewatched
Even poe 1 was WAAAAAAYYYY better than d2
Never got on poe 1 unfortunately
stormweaver
all D bad. 2 was good. but the company is dead. so d2 is dead 2. unless u enjoy being gullable. those people will still buy blizzard games
that why i never bother playing d3 and d4 straight garbage
But d2 aint dead bunch of ppl still play it and make a living out of it still 20 yrs later ;)
