The combat vision and the reality

PoE2 atm: Get more dmg so you dont have to interact with any mechanic.

First try Atziri i died, bc i tried to play the fight and dont know what she

does. Ok not a big problem at first, but then....even when you dont kill

her your temple gets a reset...

Next time i just one shotted her. Why, bc the 1 life system is so punishing that

anything else then dmg makes 0 sense in this game.

Why should i learn any boss mechanic, when the punishment for failing one time is

losing everything.

This is such a bad game design.

The worst thing is you can't even build proper defences.

One shots will always one shot.


I had less fear fighting Maven in Poe1 because with 6 portals i could at least lern her moves and practice my muscle memory.

With 1 portal and insane RNG grind to even attempt that 1 portal, i don't even want to try.

+1

I'm gonna have to agree. The fact that offence is the best defence is an issue and goes against the philosophy of the meaningful combat they wanted for the game. Nothing meaningful about building for pure damage because skipping mechanics is the only viable defence.

"We want you to play around combos etc".....

proceeds to design fights/encounters that doesn´t allow you to build around said combos
