It's embarrassing for PoE2 to not have a PBAoE Spin2Win skill
|
Whirlwind has been a ARPG staple for decades from all the way back in D2.
Many games, especially those that follow the lineage from Diablo, have included some skill where a melee character with melee weapons equipped does an ability where the character spins around and does multiple 360 degree heavy hitting PBAoE attacks. In D2, it was an active skill, but was later changed in D3 to be a channeled ability, which was copied numerous times in multiple other games, including by PoE before launch during open beta, as people love to Spin and people love to win. In the current "generation" of Diablo-style ARPG games: D4, Titan Quest II, and Last Epoch all have their own version of a Spin 2 Win skill - D4 and TQ2 call it Whirlwind, Last Epoch calls it Warpath. While it fits the narrative that GGG doesn't care about melee, its sad and embarrassing for the company to not have a Spin2Win PBAoE skill in the game from the very beginning, let alone over a year from paid access launch with multiple seasons so far. Worse still, it looks like Cyclone probably won't be ready until 0.6 around Mid-Summer, since 0.5 is all about endgame changes... Last bumped12 дек. 2025 г., 11:13:21
