In the video hes got a very specific setup AND he's skipping all ascendencies.
Some of it might have been changed/nerfed in .4 as well.

It's not fast, but entangleme plus thunderstorm feels great. And because they are duration spells, I cast then dodge. Feels kinda like minions. Cast thing then dodge. I enjoy this.

The bear feels bugged in all sorts of ways. The normal fissure then slam works okay but some other skills are wonky and buggy as hell.
Felt good bossing but the fat bear ass gets stuck all the time.
Think I will reroll minion cucks as I know that works okay.

Just wish they made some sort of endgame changes, even if only bandaid fixes. Think I'm skipping this one but druid looks pretty cool.

Because thats where all the good shit drops and its worth a shit ton when not a lot of people have it but you do because you got there first.
But I play this and POE1 as a more of a SSF thing other than maybe a good weapon or a piece or two here and there when I need some rez or some shit. I dont usually finish any character either because I get bored. So I play maybe to the mid 80s maybe 90 and then I reroll with all of the twinky shit I now have stored up. Thats how I like to play these games. But to each their own.

The endgame is in dire need of a complete redesign, but it's still far better than the campaign. I honestly have no idea how people complete it in 4 hours, every time I slog through it I feel like it takes at least twice that in just walking time. At least in PoE1 I can look at my level and the zone level and understand that I fucked up and should have skipped a lot of the stuff I killed and it's my own fault for being way overleveled, but in PoE2 right now I'm not even overleveled and it still takes ages to get through each zone.

They practice, lol. Extensive repetition and optimization. They do that shit over and over, learning all the layouts etc.. Plus the new sprint feature is prob a huge reason they are at the 4 hour mark now than the 6 or 8 in past leagues.

I'm having a far better time than I did in 0.2 or in 0.3 (quitting each before completing the campaign) but PoE2 still has a bunch of the warts that it did back last December.
I've fought with the fucking gem window each league and I'm fighting with it again now. Trying to pick out supports for djinn abilities fucking blows. I can't trust the recommended supports (one djinn has a recommended gem it can't equip baseline), can't have the skill window and the gemcutting window open at the same time and getting info about each and every skill requires using nested windows or isn't there at all. I hate that the answer to this kind of shit is to use third party tools or other people's guides/content and copy them. I fucking loathe doing sanctum and ultimatum for ascendancy points. Getting getting gangbanged by a swarm of monsters because dodgeroll collides with something makes me want to log out. Needing to constantly check merchants for gear is shit.
I'm having enough fun to finish the campaign but I don't expect go much further.

Yeah they HAVE to do something about the endgame.....I played way too much in .2 / .3 that even the thought of playing more "infinite atlas" made me not even want to roll a character.
I know they aren't able to keep promises when juggling the 2 games every 4 months, but I'll be really disappointed if it doesn't make it into .5.
Also surprised TOTA trials didn't make it in, either.

the problem with the atlas is that it is infinite. There is no sense of progression. They have to totally overhaul it, make it finite for starters. Add depth. Right now the end game is so fucking shit that I skipped the league. Will probably skip all leagues until they fix the endgame.

I'm a sucker for overworld maps but the expanding into every direction RNG like is more akin to a league mechanic like delve and not a end game staple. I think if they made the atlas like a finite overworld where you progress to different parts and do pinnacles, unlocks waystones like objects, atlas tree progression and other things that help juice/power it would be infinitely better. It seems they really don't want to go back to poe1 run the map layout you want over and over based on their design decision and that might be what's holding this end game hostage right now.
God damnit did I just agree with Bubblers?
