Bug/Game issues from a Scrub :)

First off arguing with people online only shows that they're two idiots.

My biggest issues with Poe2 from over 800 hours. all 12 ascendancy in season 1, and 2 so far in season 2. yes i have no life ATM, im not claiming i am good, but i def have alot of time on my hands. The game is not fun in it's current state for most players, mostly negative reviews and over 100k less people aleady on steam speak for itself objectively.

White mobs. I think this is a given as there are hundreds of threads on this issue. Why do white mobs swarm and perma stun you so you cant cast, roll, pot? why do they do more damage then magic, rare or bosses? why are they still hitting you as soon as you go around a corner, or from off screen? why the hell are trash mobs 1 shotting you?

Loot- It pathetic. Again hundreds of threads. drops are bad, currency is bad. When i am smart enough i'll add all the screen shots. 3 days of tier 15 maps, magic find, and even running groups for people and i still have 0 divines on the season. Leveling is a nightmare because you never get any gear upgrade. No one wants god gear ever drop, but why is it not even curated a little based on level or even weighted towards you highest stat a bit? why are the highest tiers drop with stats like +5 strength, 9 lightning rest +12 to ES? should the bases rolls not increase by level and maybe have a min value?

Strong Boxes - Full atlas spec'd, i only get whites in tier 15s. Also 1-3 strong box perma stun you trying to open them and you have to close the game, and log to a different character in hopes you can move again.
Doryani selling maps/drops - would be nice if it resets every 24hrs instead of every level. once you are at higher levels if a boss fails to drop a map (known issue) or you are bad and fail one or 2. you could run out of maps before you level.

Chaos damage/Volatile plants - why do they 1 shot you even with full 75% chaos res. why do they track until the end of time unless you stop? terribly over tuned, especially early campaign when you cant even get chaos res.

RNG - Jonathan even mentioned he will look into it as some players are getting no drops and some alot. but its makes no sense how my friend on his 3rd map gets a perfect orb and someone like myself has hundreds of maps and 0. pretty sure at level 91 DM didnt even have a greater orb. in theory the more you play especially the more juiced maps, the more you should get drops. But for alot of players its definately not the case.

Campaign is a slog, even more so in multiplayer. especially on a 2nd char. you dont really get enough currency or twink gear to make it that drastically faster to be enjoyable. i believe this will change once all 6 acts are in though.

Balance - its still way off. whether its lighting spear clearing entire screens again, or to monsters damage. why do ranged white mobs hit so hard? how does a meleee deal with that damage effectively when they might be dead before they get there? when 80% of people are playing 1 build. its a big issue.

parry/block. lets be real no one uses this after like level 10 even if its the design for huntress/combo.

heavy Stun - 3 seconds in an arpg is death and insane.

Mitigation - Use ES or die, enough said. we all know the armour issues.

Power progression - most people complain about not feeling like you get stronger. I'd argue that again its more of a not getting loot/currency, vs being to hard/monsters too fast.

Poe 2 .2 is one of the worst gaming experiences ive had in a video game in 30 years. you can easily say git gud, move on, etc.. but the purpose of an EA even thought GGG say's they arent treating it that way it to get feedback. My question is really this. what is the point of playing a loot based game, when you dont even get loot/currency?

i do love the new maps, especially unqiue maps. I hope the game improves as it has a solid base. I also enjoy that its slower. If it was all zoomy, then what is the point of POE1. they should be different games if thy want both running.


now feel free to mock me, and express how im a noob fool :)
