This was our 4th attempt at getting our 5-6 ascendancy points (this one cost 15 exalts). Skill issue, go agane

as someone who has 14k hrs in poe 1, this game has been a huge and boring letdown, where the fuck is the loot? I already struggle enough irl, why would I want to struggle in a video game as well?

I hate how they decided to do Ascendancies in POE2. The Trials of Sugma blows. My monk has been able to, pretty easily, solo everything up to end of Act 2, yet I can't get past room 3 of the trial. The worse thing about it is that it has been said MANY times that Sanctum requires specific builds. If you aren't playing one of those builds, then Sanctum is damn near impossible, even just a single floor. Yet, they picked Sanctum to be the first trial in a game where every little bit of power is amazingly helpful? Basically a severe nerf to anyone not playing a Sanctum build, and a major boost to anyone who is playing one. Just feeling more and more that POE2 is not open to anything less than the Meta-Builds. Need to be heavily optimized, which makes all those nodes and fanciness of the passive tree, all the variety in gear, skills, etc... pointless.

This is a system that sounded good on paper, and terrible in practice. I never thought I would miss the labyrinth trials.

Jesus that looks like a nightmare. I don't see how "normal" people are supposed to do either this or the sanctum one. I'm afraid for the 2nd one personally.

I wish I could care about PoE 2, but the Ruthless pipe dream these people have just kills any chance of this game being good ever.

Must be fun to die before the beam even spawns.

this is what POE needs to see. instant death as boss spawns in. that's not a skill issue or a mechanics issue that's just broken. in a this is unfairly hard manner, but the boss shouldn't insta give someone not ready.

I'm struggling to enjoy this game, it's very disappointing and heartbreaking

Twins! (except this was an attempt at points 3 & 4)
