It's NOT a skill issue.
"Yea I mean your post just sounds like a skill issue then. Seems like you dont even know when to use abilities and are constantly stun locked somehow. Meanwhile nearly the entire ladder of kitava smiths dont have this issue. Noone I am aware has this issue. So good luck! Mash the clean

" If I need a guide just to enjoy act one as someone who already reached end game on another character, then something is fundamentally wrong with this game. I'll pose this question to you guys, please be honest and I won't judge either way, I'm genuinly curiuous. Do you guys find stuns from enemies to make the game more fun? Do you find that having many skills that are easily interuppted by most any mob to be a sense of progression that is fulfilling to negate? Do you find this progression more fun than spending those talents elsewhere to enhance things like attack speed and crit? Or potentially new mechanics that give other sorts of defensive benfits that aren't tied to making core abilities usable? |

Post your armor. Somewhere, you're not getting stun resistances. Use the defensive passive nodes. Use the unbreakable support on rolling slam to avoid stuns. Use a shield with a one hand mace instead of a two handed one until you can add enough defenses.
Skill issue doesn't just mean how you push buttons but how you skillfully use the game systems to your advantage. BTW if you're playing with mouse click movement that is nerfing your actual skill, warrior feels better with wasd or controller. Impatience is insatiable.

I keep hearing that the combat in PoE 2 is the best and most fun of any game ever made. Any issues people are having in 0.2 are pure skill issues. There's no other reason people would like 0.1 and hate 0.2. It's the exact same game.

10000% Agree. Warrior attacks is just fucking anoying. Slow as fuck, stupid attacks. Max attack speed, still slow, a lot of stun treshold, BUT almost every mob pack more than 2 mob LIGHT stun you and interrupt your "very fast" attack.
70% block feels like 7%. Armor - don't work. Only fucking one build with boneshater works ok, not meta, not godly, dust fucking playable. I loved this game at the beginning. I don't like easy game. But game not hard, it's anoying and stupid as hell. Now i just hate everything and want to burn devs alive. It's not ok. P.S.: Yeah you added node imune to light stuns... ok cool... BUT YOU REMOVING DODGE ROLL !!! FOR MELE CLASS !! What the fucking retarded idiots. |

"Earthquake right? Sometimes I put support gems to make it last longer. If you're using it to deal damage, you're missing the point. And that "fragile state" sounds like Boneshatter. From the sounds of it, you want simple "press button, get satisfaction". You don't want to read, you just want zero complexity that it's impossible to misunderstand what skills do. Ok, that's your preference. Believing everyone shares your preference is the height of arrogance. "Unironically: yes. Because posts like these prove there's skill involved in avoiding the downside. Makes complex skills feel earned and exclusive to use right. It's not "progression" to negate the downsides, it's knowing what to do to never let it apply to you: don't get hit. If you don't understand how to achieve that, warrior is too complex for you, play a simpler character like sorceress. Just because the class requires pure STR in-game doesn't mean you need zero INT to play the warrior right. Last edited by Schverika#2698 on Apr 9, 2025, 5:32:47 PM

You do realize playing warrior is as simple as prepping enemies with basic attacks and finishing them with Boneshatter while taking care of bosses with Perfect Strike, right? It is the simplest of simple progression and you are stuck with it initially because the rest is too slow/weak/unreliable.

'Firstly, apologies for the hate you're all getting en masse, GGG.'
Do not be sorry if they delivered a defective product that you paid for... we paid for! They deserve the backslash. |

Warrior is super fun. Get some stun resistance, a charm for freeze or slow and some slow resistance and you are rolling. Why would you expect to be able to output massive amount of damage without any drawback? You want to play with a 2 hander for more damage? Prepare to attack slower and be vulnerable to hits. You want to go fast? then expect less damage. You hate being stunned between animation? get some defense and attack speed.
Mostly Everything can be solved if you try. |

" You paid to help them develop the game, you didnt pay to have a full access to an already completed game. They simply could have waited 1 or 2 more years to develop the game in silence and then release it, but instead they were nice enough to include you into the development process. They listen to everyone's feedback, do many interviews, many dev post and fixes every day AND the game isn't even out yet. NOBODY else does that, nobody else is that nice, but everyone is abusing and insulting them 24/7. |
