I played PoE1 at hard and it was fair so I picked the same difficulty for PoE2. Mistake! This game is piss easy. Had to use a mod to change the difficulty in-game to PoTD.
Unity Console for PoE2Where can one find this mod?
definitely seems like one is levelling way quicker than POE1, and there was some challenge up to about level 9, but since then encounters have not been up to par at all. it's really annoying to go through the intro sequence of walking along the spirit path, talking to the pallid knight, the first game did way better of getting things going. also, what's up with replacing the "you must gather your party before venturing forth" voice? getting some SJW vibes from this game.
Right click a weapon or armor(other stuff can't be upgraded), then press the Enchant button at the bottom. Mostly you're looking to add +25% as ele damage to your weapons and maybe upgrade them to exceptional if they're not, but shit's kinda unnecessary. If you've finished white march already and you're still in act2 everything is going to be way underleveled anyway so you'll just smash everything np. No need for a forge or anything, the forge in white marsh is just to make the ingots you can use to enchant. Everything else can be done anywhere(crafting potions, scrolls, food and such, crafting button at the bottom of the inventory).For the first game: I think I'm almost done with act 2 and nearly done with all of the White March pt. 2. Killed a couple dragons and scoured the 15th levels of Od Naur (or whatever).
HOW THE HELL DO YOU CRAFT!? I have no idea how to upgrade armor or weapons. The only forge I've encountered was the White Forge but that seemed to only make the refined ingots.
Do any of the bounties ever get more interesting? Like, if you do enough of them you get to unlock a cool monster or get some neat loot? Running around searching for mobs for 2000 copper seems like a waste of time.
