POE2 The Screen Clearing Blaster Zoomer or Die Game. Currency packs in MTX store soon?
After not logging into POE2 for a week I decided to log in today to play my 74 SSF Warrior. Unlike my Ruthless POE1 char I was playing during the week, the POE2 char has not had a gear upgrade since act 5. Why? Simply RNG. Every Base I have dropped I apply a transmute and augment and don't get anything better than what I have on. No point wasting a regal on it. So I log in to play, choose a map, put in a waystone and start to run it. I don't have a blaster spark zoomer cast on crit, take advantage of everything broken build. I have a Warrior that uses warrior skills like bone shatter, leap slam, perfect Strike and HOTG.
After 20m picking my way slowly through the map my char gets mobbed by 50 white mobs and 2 blue packs and a yellow and is soon dead. Why dead? Because with bone shatter if you cant prime them for stun you cant do damage. You have 2k hp to work with and only a few seconds to kill the pack or die. The meta builds wouldn't have seen the pack as it would have died off screen. Those playing those broken, stupid builds will be the ones flaming "git gud" in the replies. These are the same people playing trade league who bought their endgame. Jonathan Rogers said that he wanted a game that took more skill to play but they have built a game with worse broken builds than path 1 has ever seen. There will be a parade of uninformed coming into the thread saying "well if you wanna play zoomer go to path 1." They will then boot up thier spark zoomer farmer. Some people are odd. But then the question arises, why not just refuse to play a zoomer stupid build. Well because of my experience. There are 4 or 5 builds to play in this game and anything else will get munched by the packs in the MASSIVE maps that are 20x the size of Path 1 maps. One mistake, one death, one bad RNG and you are dead, the map is gone and so on. This isn't fun. This isn't even a game. Its a joke so certain people can preen themselves in the mirror. The game is mind numbingly boring, the only builds that can work are the zoomer blaster builds the producers say they dont want. AND .... they have dropped support for POE1. So .... I guess Tencent has control and its no longer about building a good game? I regret my supporter pack purchase alas. At any moment I expect to see currency packs for sale in the store. Might as well go full AAA. Last edited by Kraythax#2592 on Jan 26, 2025, 1:55:51 AM Last bumped on Jan 26, 2025, 1:52:41 AM
