Pretty fucking good patch.

Yea frankly there is enough that im willing to overlook towers still being a thing. I like that the side content atlas trees just effect the maps instead so if you want to do lots of breech its way better.

Way better essences, its probably better then PoE

Yeah so anyone that has any premium tabs has the option to convert some or all to "merchant" tabs, to use for the new trade system.

Costs gold like faustus but works while you are mapping and offline as well. Not sure what took them so long but I have to imagine they are going to incorporate the same thing for Path of Exile one as well.

Locks are added too along with a lot of essence changes / additions and omens / etc.

Looks pretty awesome honestly and not having to replay the campaign twice is a godsend.

Yeah they said they would add the new trade to PoE as well.

Im hyped for 0.3. Seems like they finally scrapped some stupid decisions and made less friction in all areas of the game.

Any more detail on that "asynchronous trade" system without having to dig too much? Would be actual great news if its similar to a real AH.

Works like an Everquest bazaar trader that works weather you are online or offline. Buyer can port to your hideout by a click of a button via the trade site and buy it off your trader. Buyer has the currency cost you set + a gold cost (likely based on the "cost" of the currency)

Expand trader with Merchant tab from store but can exchange current Premium stash tabs to them for free. Can use premium stash tab as well if you want to trade without the trader.

World most really be ending if they are adding offline trade.
Makes more sense, so to speak, in PoE1, where the state of ground loot and crafting is such that most of the playerbase would rather not interact with it.

How does this not take a torch to the crafting they're trying to encourage in PoE2?

Looks good but I'm going to need to track down something I actually want to play before I dive in. I'm not showing up at char select without a clear plan.

The detailed video that explains all the stuff. Bunch of interesting changes for skills/supports and all that which I guess explains the lack of new class.

Is this how you normally play? Self-inflicted roguelike PoE?

I know enough about Path of Exile that my planning doesn't need to be deeper than "I think this new Elementalist looks good." I've got experience with a mix of skills and classes and am reasonably sure if I'm going to like something in a game that I already like on its own. With Path of Exile 2 I'm zero for two on successful league-start selections plus the game itself I'm not particularly fond of. I'm not doing it or myself any favors if I go with another "I'm starting Raise Spectre oops it's horrible" league start. I'm going to need something more concrete to go on than skill + ascendancy.

I think I may actually roll up next weekend at least through the campaign to see how everything feels, god damn I was really expecting to skip it entirely.

Still really wanted a new weapon type or two but I'll probably enjoy it at least up until maxed tier mapping. New atlas system still blows, but the changes may make it suck a lot less.

Looks really good. We'll see how much of it doesn't work/is bugged. From what I gather, power creep increased and with some of these changes it's looking like instead of ~3-5 powerful builds you're looking at 20+ from a quick glance. Should be good for the player base, honestly.

Depending how hard they go on "rebalance" during the league, but they said last time they're going to only try and fix truly broken things.
