Thats the sad part. We all wanted poe with extra stuf and smoother and prettier and without the slog of poe.

We got a poe like soul game catered to hard cores.

Yep. And not even good as a soul game, the gameplay is really shit compared to the proper action games. The hybridization does not work well with the PoE-style of starting as a slow and low powered character.

You'll always have PoE 1 where you can press a button and explode a full screen of mobs with zero skill involved.

I saw one of the apologists in an other thread defending the game by saying that everything is fine because he could do act 1 in 12 hours. Yeah...

This game is not made for ARPG players, it is made for something else. There is no reason to keep playing unless you really like it because it will not get any better as you progress.

Just leave. The game will either be lost to irrelevance or the devs will make very drastic changes and you will have a much better time exploring and playing the game for the first time at that point.

That's what ARPG are all about, progress your character to a point where you become a god living among mere mortals, one tap and clear 3 screens. If people wanted to play soulslike there are thousand of them. Nobody is going to redo this ruthless mode every league on multiple characters trust me.

If your damage is low, you gotta figure out why. When the game has been out longer and there are more build guides it will be a lot easier.

What if the reason you damage is low is that your gear sucks?
How do you address this?

You could get a good drop... oh wait no you can't
You could craft something... oh wait no you can't
You can respec your passive tree... oh wait that's 1000g a node or more.
You could equip different support gems... oh wait you don't have any spare support gems and are already sitting there with empty slots.

Guess you reroll ice sorc or one of the other 2 tolerable builds and start over. You made the mistake of trying to experiment with your build. Screw you.


Fun.
