Trivializing the game with a level 10 staff.

Bro. I watched the video.

Your damage is absolute dog water. You call that trivializing? Sheesh.

Yeah no offence but that's not impressive. It's very good for level 10 that's for sure but thats about it. You also got lucky because cast rate, high spell power and +all spells (not elemental specific) all in the same staff is pretty rare.

It's astonishing how some people are still missing the point entirely.

...that softcore should be deleted from the game?

Do the same with a martial weapon lvl 10 and maybe we'll get your point.

Playing game first time and not using early poe trade and playing it on full equipped alt with trade items is like night and day.

Found that staff myself, what now? How does the SSF argument make any sense to those that keep bringing it up?

0.4 is too easy
poe2 is too easy

too much power.

Yeah, this one's pretty simple.

If you know how to play the game, you can absolutely assemble a little "leveling kit" that carries a character way further than it has any right to. I’ve got basically full set for Witch or Druid where I can slap on minions and cruise from like level 10 to 70 with barely any drama. Past 70 it slows down a bit, sure. Then you replace a couple pieces, maybe buy an upgrade or two, and keep moving.

The funny part is the gear doing the heavy lifting is still level 10. And it's not even some sacred class-locked artifact - a lot of it is basically classless. Minions just make it extra brain-off because I actually know how to pilot those setups. Could it work on other classes too? Probably. I just haven't bothered to test every possible flavor of "gear carries, player pretends it's skill".

And yeah, eventually you respec into the real build... which is where the game gently hands you the bill for your fun. That respec cost is a small country's GDP in gold.

poe 2 difficulty in a pill...
