@@primary2630 Forests don't have to directly network to function as forests.

Her calling it a skill universe is fitting as I was just thinking that it looks like stars in the sky when she zoomed out. Glad to see PoE2 is keeping up with the absurd skill tree.

In poe 1 this is only page one, we have a skill tree for the atlas too.. an ascendency and for a time a secondary ascendency. Final fantasy 10 is the tutorial for the sphere grid.
FF 10 with sphere grid, then it got simpler in 12, 13’s was kinda bland and 15 and 16 simplified it even more 14 doesn’t have a proper skill tree that i remember
Not gonna lie, i am having way to much fun seeing ppl reacting to the passiv skill tree . . . Hell, they dont even know about the 2 other skill tree. 😅😂
For those that don't know, they add stuff every update//expansion. Not to mention, when there is a full expansion (with a new map/boss) that expansion usually adds a whole new different skill tree page. POE1 had the same skill tree, then added an ascension page once you beat the game, then added a god power page which got stronger with each god boss you beat, etc, etc
One thing that a lot of new people don't realize is, that it's the skill tree for _every_ class on one page. If it's anything like PoE 1, almost every character is going to only really pay attention to at most 1/4 of that mess and over 1/2 of it is going to be incremental filler points that screw you over 2-30 levels later when you realized you didn't take _enough_ of the right filler nodes.
Best part of PoE 2's tree is that all the attribute nodes can be any attribute you like. You'll never get screwed by attributes again... well, until you do
To also add to “kit”’s message all nodes are respecable with just a small gold cost if you choose the wrong stat or need to say change it so you can equip a different set of gear down the line.
@@PurpleCyanideTube From what I've been reading, that 'small' gold cost can spiral pretty fast at the later levels. I haven't started playing 2 yet (enough things that have been talked about that I'm not jumping in until the honeymoon phase is over), but I'm still fully expecting the ability to brick characters without meaning to because of GGG and the community's fascination with 'meaningful choice'. I'll be pleasantly surprised if they allow us to easily fix a character we bricked because of poor choices, but I'm not expecting it.
@@leadpaintchips9461 There's heavy discussion about removing the gold cost completely on streamers the devs actually watch, so I'd expect something close to it or it directly as a form of experimentation during early access.
hot damn that's huge. While I dont play Path of Exile, I imagine the strategy is to just fuck around for like the first 10-20 levels, then respec later on once you have a rough idea of what you want to do and have the points to actually spec into it. That or google
This is better described as a "Skill Roots". Aside from how it's similar in design, it also only provides passives, as in where the tree gets nutrients from, making your castable skills stronger.
It takes a few levels to even make it to the first notable, you don't need to understand the whole tree from the start. And the first few notables at the beginning of each character's trees are generalist notables that will be good for most builds with that character, so you don't need to figure out exactly what you want right away.
Just filter for "Minion" if you're doing minion build. And go get the nodes that seem good. Go pure damage for the first 2 acts, then you see how you feel and may decide to spec into something more defensive.
I love how even her avatar conveyes the mounting horror. Are the jewel skill trees for the outer edges in the skill tree in the game, loves putting a skill tre jewel in the outer socket ro then add anothe rin the socket of said skill jewel while adding another in the just now added skill jewel. joo dawg we heard you like skill trees.
So this is what Josh Strife Hayes was talking about when he said they should zoom the tree at the start :p I mean it seems they did, reaction normal, she made the mistake of zooming out, regretted it, reverted to the zoomed in part. Mission accomplished :p I figured people zooming out would be a guarantee so I didn't see the point of zooming in but I guess now she does know where she should be starting anyways so I'll take the L on that one. Touche Josh.
I will never understand why people always make the PoE skill tree seem very complex when its very easy to understand. You can filter things out and you pretty much just pick whatever you like as you go along. And as you go along, you'll find bits the synergize well with other attributes and you just go from there.
The main issue with this skill tree is that while it is easy when you break it down, you still have to be aware of what you are roughly going for in the long run or your character will most likely be screwed over at some point. This in turn means reading what a lot of the nodes do so that you can see what you want to aim for, which is not something most people are going to do, or even are willing to do. This skill tree favors those that already have experience with the game and those that are willing to sit down, read and plan for some kind of build before actually playing, while people that "figure it out while going" are most likely going to have a bad time.
