Still works

Are these episodes just not going to Spotify anymore? I haven't seen an episode since October because of this.

Tried 2 terminals one under Voodoo boys building and the other in the parking lot cannot interact with either.

🍻

how do i get into facility

You couldn't be bothered to press M and show the map? This video is useless without that.

All monk elemental skills scale from phys, including ice strike. Chaos is chaos though, not elemental. But.. there are no monk chaos skills (really). Maybe the one other thing you could do now is make a mantra of destruction chaos buffing flicker strike or maybe falling thunder. I almost feel like they could add lightning staff but for chaos dmg when they give them some more skills or a support gem that changes spells to chaos idk. But yeah the ascendancy needs more and the support for it needs to come. It feels like your just grabbing passive buffs from the ascendancy now. Which they all have anyway. On the topic of maps. I wouldn't care nearly as much how big maps are if I didn't regularly find myself going through them 2 times and maybe searching for something I missed another time.. nearly every map I go into. Including the campaign. Dead end monster traps are ok in obvious dungeons, but less of them like wayyyy less of them would be nice.

The druid bear looks so cuddly

Yeah I like how you didnt have the right technical ability to do it the easy way so you just cheated. thanks. I was hoping someone would show us the hard way.

Working fine, 12/28/2024.

this game disent resect your time there is noway i can put down 100 hours just to get to endgame.

D4 BAD

do you need phantom liberty to get this? i have the dlc but i havent unlocked it and i cant get into that area

How does he not know that xp loss is your punishment for not building tanky. All the other aspects don't exist in PoE1 but he would still be against it, PoE2 will clearly make mapping less punishing but I'm sure they will 100% keep xp loss because it solves another problem. Johnathan clearly said that if you reached 100, what would the difference be between a glass cannon build that just one shots or gets one shot and died 1000 times to get there compared so someone who died fewer times due to a more well rounded build. That's why defenses are so important and ingrained into the culture of PoE build making, because there's actual stakes here. And time is not a stake xD we are all in here for the long haul.

I've always been a diablo super fan but I'm just disgusted by D4 monetization practices. 70 dollar base game 15 to 25 skins that can't be earned in game and for the story expansion 40 dollars with another one planned? I'm new to poe2 and see why it's so successful. I would bet blizzard greed will be the reason the game fails when poe2 content is 100% free.

PureDMg this podcast made me really think about why even i hit a really early wall this season. Ty you all three for supporting D4 despite the fact that yes just like all games there are faults but D4 is still fun and yes i guess i could rant about the things i dont like but honestly there arent many that bother me enough to waste the space. Thankyou for looking at the positives of the year along with the negs

Anybody else not getting updates for the podcast on Spotify? Cause it's quite disappointing.

This was a really good recap, it's been a crazy year, nice to reflect. Happy Holidays guys ❤

I play this new PoE-like called Path of Exile 2. It's only in EA but I've been having a lot of fun.

I mean, POE 1 is better and poe2 is looking like it will be better than poe1 once the full game is out.

what a mind numbing podcast......

Appreciated the different perspectives you guys had, the segment about GGG's vision is the most important in my opinion. People identify problems and devs find solutions to those problems according to their vision and objectives for their game.

Loot 3.0 ancestral base drops and you use materials to upgrade it to 3 stars. And upgrade stats with other materials just as PoE 😂

End game 2.0 need to be the next work to blizzard. Pit in his actually form is not really fun, and its the only challenging content. Maybe they must do Pit more like GR. Maybe they can add difficultys to IH and Kurast, for being more challenging .

GGG's biggest issue currently is that it's still using POE1 enemy structures in endgame. Flooding the screen with hasted mobs doesn't work with a slower, more intentional combat system. If this doesn't get addressed, we'll get back to POE1 levels of power creep before 1.0. I really hope they understand how devastating it could be continuing down this path.

I highly recommend doing at least the campaign on Hardcore. It's incredibly rewarding and its fairly punishing.

Going into D4 now is useless and I would go sleeping within 5 minutes. Going into PoE2 EA now feels fun and rewarding even just for one Exalted or a rare item.

I think is impossible to hit billions without the paragon board. I haven't tested this. But my gut feeling tells me that the crazy part of the game is the paragon board. Which is the part that also adds a ton of hours of grinding and fun, soooo... heh!, good luck.

Exp loss is just part of the game. Using poe1 as an example, you will absolutely make gains through an entire day of grinding, even if you gained 0% experience. I would be very surprised if the same doesn't hold true for poe2. "Gotta be max level in softcore" is a very Diablo mentality...

16 minutes in and i don't know, how many times i smlied, grinned, laughed. Thank you guys. <3 Having a time of depression and you guys help. Thanks! Plus, still liking D4 feels better, hearing you talk ybout it. :)

I'm hoping a lot of the dead ends in maps will eventually be filled with league mechanics lol

Sensual companion 😂

macro based take maps are way too big, mostly pointless

Oh No! More Shills!

love acolyte, full phys dmg with leech and loads of stun

Welcome back boys. Us diablo super fans never even left sanctuary. Congrats to poe super fans of course.

A few things as I'm halfway through the video. Feedback should be done through questionnaire and survey not the 1% of players making noise on internet as poe Andy's (I'm a poe Andy for like 10 years). Poe and last epoch make sure to keep updates away from same week. It's blizzard who will make it hard. Octavian started out as a streamer and played HC trade. His opinion is very valid I just wish sometimes mini introduction is needed. And a side note anytime I hear a new player in poe ask for guides I love it. Won't play poe but will play poe 2 cause of guides for the new meta build. Poe you don't need guides until endgame red tier map type stuff and even then the systems are very similar there are people who will play poe after 2 and find it enjoyable experience. Edit: put points into the map boss tree and you'll find out how hard bosses get in t18 maps 😂

"a punishment for failure is time" No, it means that lvl 100 is gated behind good play. You can't just ignore the bosses, no life the rest and make it to lvl 100. That's way lvl means something too.

i don't get what xanth is talking about with chayula monk, the flames of chayula give all damage as extra chaos not just phys, it's not convert, it's damage as extra, i'm tearing through shit even tho 2/3rds of my damage is elemental when i pick up those flames, the real problem with it is the uptime and consistency of the flames which in aoe you solve with mantra of destruction and a good powerful aoe attack like falling thunder or the bell, when i fight bosses i deal an okay amount of damage when they summon adds i suddenly hit for 4 times the damage thanks to my flames of chayula, also i'm playing pillar of the caged god too just on my monk cause i wanted to use chayula

Kinda Funny sucks balls

Trying to listen to these knuckleheads is not pleasant.

I think the Gemling is the most versatile ascendency in the game. I'm currently playing one as a minion build and it's fantastic. Macro's analogy of D2 to D3 is not at all the same experience mainly because D2 was Epic and D3 was and still is trash. And PoE1 and PoE2 are both amazing in their own right.

Wait why am I listening to a controller player 😂

fellow busted hands bro here - macro makes some great points about controller. my big gripes: - no ability to easily jump to mouse/keyboard for inventory nonsense between lots of playing/etc - I actually dont mind the twinstick feel, but I am just not using the right stick since the auto-aim is mostly solid -when autoaim prevents you from looting shit on the ground mid combat. let me hoover the items! but yeah, otherwise this game is a dream to play for my busted carpal hands compared to last epoch.

Sounds like D4 is macroboi go to, allot of whining it sounded but he’s not my favourite too begin with.

The dude on the bottom is an elitist know it all. Would never follow his build guide no matter how good he is.

Super interesting to see people liking the endgame. I finally called it quits after a few t15 + 3 maps, and I was not enjoying that at all. I'd say 1-75 was pretty great, and then the gameplay experience and reward loop dropped off a steep cliff. Gonna pay attention though, cause I wanna see what feedback ggg takes to heart.

Im kinda confused by this podcast. Maybe its me being a first time listener but your guests complain about one shots and then also complain sbout monster speed and lethality. How exactly are you ever supposed to die then? XP penalty exists to force that only the best players hit max level and the game doesn't require you to do that for pinnacle content. Maybe it should kick in later but I think its necessary to force players to make well rounded builds and hit skillful play. The fact that they cant see that makes me think they have no more authority on the game than the average Redditor.

Seeing MacroBioBoi on here now as well I hear Frostylaroo's voice "welcome back, you traitors" Seriously though I'm really enjoying the game so far (although some things that also kind of aggravating which will hopefully be smoothed out by launch).
