POE literally has no endgame content

Play Ruthless SSF Hardcore to say a level 95 character then come back. Even if you manage that I really doubt that you'll be singing the same tune.

There is ZERO chance OP has played all that PoE has to offer in 12 days. I have been playing this game for over a decade and STILL find new things to do, new gear to craft, new levels of power to achieve, new builds to try out, new mechanics to exploit, new combos etc.

No endgame? Creating perfect gear is "endgame". Creating new characters is "endgame". Experimenting with ALL the skills and ALL the mechanics is "endgame". Playing harder modes is "endgame". Playing ALL the different league content to completion is "endgame". Grinding those chase uniques is "endgame". Delving to the highest possible floor is "endgame". Fighting ubers (as you mentioned) is "endgame" (which btw is ABSOLUTELY not something anyone can do). Futzing around with your atlas passive tree is "endgame". Tweaking and optimizing your existing passive tree is "endgame". There is sooooo much more in there too.

The game is not 100% done when you fight a boss with a single character...

If you are solely interested in just beating a boss once and thats it, then arpg's in general are not for you. Part of the fun of a loot-based game such as this is pushing the numbers higher and higher. Sure, you can beat a boss with 5 million damage. You can beat a boss with 500 damage and a proper build: it'll take a long ass time but you can do it. That's not the point: optimizing your build and watching your damage soar to 10, 15, 100 million is what the endgame of ALL arpgs is about. That is "progress". Content without progress is boring as hell.

OP has a 92 sabo. All gear ?sold?? Probably only killed the tutorial easter/exarch then bought access to other stuff and failed... resulting in this ragepost and selling of his gear. Yep! I thing we need to listen to their input xD

the end of the 'game' is kitava in act10, everything after that is endgame, the map system is called the endgame map system, because its the core of the endgame from which all other endgame activities stem. branch off.

poe has more endgame than every other arpg ever made combined and then doubled.

I've seen people been selling STD builds with a price of 20~ mirrors which can kill basically anything, but what are you going to do with the character which farms simulacrum with the eyes closed ?

what are you going to do with a char that can farm sims with your eyes closed? presumably you are going to farm sims with your eyes closed. im not sure what that has to do with anything rly? im not sure what you are getting at?

in all arpgs there is a point where you have perfect gear for a top tier build and can destroy everything. the reality is that most, and by most i mean such a huge majority its very close to "all" veterans of this game with 5k, 10k+ hours of play time do not have 20 mirrors to buy that gear. youre talking 0.0001% of players who have been able to grind that kind of wealth from the game to spend on one build and its probably taken them years to get it and theyre in standard league.



is the game pointless when you have 20 mirrors and spend them all on a build?

yes, if you think killing the entire game with your eyes closed is pointless then yes its pointless.

what i would say is go and legitimately farm 20 mirrors, come back here and link a stack of 20 mirrors when you have them. see you back here in 4-8 years when youve managed it and we can congratulate you and then talk you through the next step which is rolling a new character and starting again, like all arpgs when you max out your existing character right?

I think the game could use a little bit more incentive to farm the end bosses, and add a few more too, gets kinda boring some times an i don't find myself caring to farm bosses
