When they first announced POE2 it sounded great, combos where you use more then 1 button, boss fighs that are challenging and actually reward positioning and learning patterns unlike the typical facetank bosses of most arpgs. Lost Ark has the best combat system any ARPG has had but of course its a predatory korean mmo so its not worth the time investment.

Cut to poe2 today and its the same boring 1 button clear 1 shot facetank boss fights as all the arpgs that came before. Why cant any dev team actually try to add complexity and challenge. And no I dont mean soulslikes, No rest for Wicked looks fine but its not the kind of combat that Lost Ark had.

Im almost at the end of the game and these fights still have hte same boring generic song as the first boss. Please pay some musicians in the next game devs

You cannot proc counterstrike on perfect dodge, so wouldnt there be a better damage skill?

right now Im hitting about 200 give or take plus phial damage, my FSR hits 1400. I have transcended gear and a god gogma roll

No gear past high rank Arkveld is allowed since that’s where the dlc will start. Also no Artian weapon or rng talisman.

Was thinking just the standard 2 ebony 2 Fulgar but I’m not to familiar with base game builds pre tu

I assume its one of the bow guns? I have reached Nameille and would like to craft a bowgun build anyways, whats the best light or heavy bowgun for shredding Kushala where I am at in the story, all the guides and builds online suggest raging brachy or safi weapons which I dont have access too

I played at launch and except for 2 bosses the game was too easy and kinda forgettable, did they ever add a hard mode or is there a difficulty mod?

in the tech tree it has the exact same stats and in the wiki there is no listing of what it actually does
