Dawn of the Hunt - What We’re Working On

Just give us movement speed.

my expectations were pretty low but god this league made me think if you guys actually play the game at all.Remove infinite reroll tablet and make another new league while you are at it economy is already f*cked

I feel like druid keeps in line with dawn of the hunt. Add him soon.

I just want to play a Javazon like I was promised. You do realize most players wanted the Huntress for precisely this and only this classic archetype fantasy. I don't want to hit 3 buttons to do 25% of a white mobs health. This isn't an MMO, this is an ARPG and combo attacks are not fun. SO FIX IT!!!

The amount of people in this thread totally unaware or unwilling to take passives, skills or support gems to slow down the mobs is just too funny (if you need to, obviously you can go the tanking route).

GGG wants you to solve problems the character is facing. Complaining on the forum to change the mobs instead of suggesting to give more tools to control them is just peak laziness.

This problem was already in 0.1, but because everyone was freezing or killing them easily, they never bothered to figure it out.

And game is doing fine for now. Forum warriors having zero effect on concurrent steam players.

Close the poe 2 and back to poe 1, game is horrible!

im not go play poe 2 goo luck for all go play this trash!

This is exactly the same as the so called bow league was. Everybody was baited into playing bows like amazon spears now and it turned out to be a gigantic failure because of balance. GG

Ok I gave it a try. Not going to say "Its all bad" or "Im done" but... to be honest I never felt so tired and dissapointed before I even rich the maps.
Yes my amazon is only in act 5 right now, on Day 3. Usually I try to play faster but this time it was way too much of frustration on the way. I would like to point out exact things that frustrated me the most. So here are my 10 cents:

- Yes, spears are very slow (animations) and have really small base damage. Starting spear skills feels bad. Its barely playable at the very start and gets a little bit better later on (still struggling with act bosses and tanky rares).

- Yes, mobs are twice as faster as players and since defenses were nerfed going melee feels suicidal.

- Yes, parry feels bugged and you never know if it works or not. And if it doesn’t you die and start again.

- You gotta be fighting/souls-like games nerd to enjoy performing all those combos and catch frames while fast and aggressive mobs kicking your arse. Im not one of those and this is definitely not the thing I would like to have in PoE or any ARPG. Tastes vary, I guess…

- May be its just me being unlucky but itemization in acts feels terrible. Ive found 2 useless uniques over 4 acts and still have couple blue items on my character. 3 crafting attempts failed (exalts didn’t hit).

- I like many things in 0.2 like Huntress voicelines, games art and music, new skills look awesome. But the gameplay feels sad at the moment IMHO.

Thus right now I don’t feel like PoE 2 is my game. And would like to ask you again: please prolong Phrecia and don’t delay 3.26. I really hope you will make PoE 2 good eventually but for now I personally prefer the first game.

Thanks!

At this point, GGG seems so out of touch with the player base that it almost seems better to come back in a year to see if PoE2 isn't as terrible as it is currently, or see if the promised PoE1 league ever came lol.
