Why the F are you guys arguing here - he is using a weapon. Hollow Palm is meant to play and scale like that. So, the only remarkable thing is him avoiding one shots - this is all. And obviously the video doesn't contain his failed attempts.

Try that with your skill only enabled and give us lessons...

This lol.

It is fine to actually kill the boss, particularly a boss that was literally designed to show off the combat and built around mechanics. And to be honest good on them, would not be easy to do, curious how many tries it actually took lol.

The real question is, did they complete all the maps to get all the tokens on this character? Probably not, its cool to see and it goes to show how powerfull some skills are. It's also likely that every single passive point has been focused into damage which makes the character significantly more powerful.

It's not even that powerful. Go to poeninja and check how many invokers are using Hollow Palm - 7%. Meanwhile 75% are using a staff. How is this in any way overpowered, this thread is baffling.

The entire thread is a skill issue collapse. Like guys, some dudes could kill Uber Elder in POE1 at level 40, the same happened here. If that guy that put a lot of time in research, all the bad runs could kill Arbiter with no damage - I'll happy for him. It's the perfect example of meaningful combat
It's looks like Elden Ring / Darks Souls no hit / no death 1 level run.

It really doesn't. Hollow Palm is literally a weapon. It'd be more impressive if he used just his fists without it.

It's unfortunate that you disagree with us because we've been waiting for the Druid class to be added to PoE for years. Of course, when it was added, we tested it thoroughly and tried to enjoy it. You, on the other hand, took the easy way out and stuck with your previous builds. I advise you to give different things a chance; getting this angry is bad for your health, my friend.

Druid is meta, chrono and smith isn't, that's just reality. Idk why you even said what you said :)

No idea what someone who complain about hollow palm technique doing damage without weapon can test on druid that is very simple archetype, really interesting.

Besides, people that do builds for public, tend to do them every league to update those builds, leveling, whatever changes and such. If my builds wouldn't be changed as much i'd do something else, but i'm trying to keep actual offmeta alive.

Ok, that's enough time spent trying to explain simplest things to the wall, wall that spent more time in game than me, that shouldn't be so clueless.

And good tip for you, don't compare your character to anyone else's character.

OP has spent 1400 hours in PoE2 without knowing what Hollow Palm is, and how it does damage without weapon. Insane how much different one person can spend time compare to other.

Actually, the issue has nothing to do with PoE1 at all; in PoE1, it's possible to take Flat damage from anywhere. The problem here is how a character who isn't using anything can scale their damage so absurdly, reaching 1 or 1.5 million...
And this isn't PoE1. Welcome to the world of PoE2, brother...

He used all the passives to get this DPS results. 3 runs and boss lost 75% of his life.

I would call that meaningful and masterful. I don't see what there is to be upset about.

This post is ridiculous. That player is amazing.
