Six! Days! 😆💥

So there seems to be no spell dodge can this mean the acrobatics keystone might enables you to also evade spells?

[@froggystrap1232]

I know people are joking about you milking the content but making a video a day until launch is an insane amount of work and I hope you are proud of the quality of the videos you have put out! Ty so much because i know those are valuable and I will be revisiting them!!

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

What's more is they're all properly scripted and edited too, with no faffing about rambling. These are proper guides to the game.

[@clapaucius8]

I JUST CANT WAIT ANYMORE

[@ShiroyWolf]

Sweet! Now it will be easier than ever to be reminded of my -60% chaos resistance.

[@МистерТвистер-н4я]

Btw they said that they're removed reflect mods from maps, so reflect part of cs is about character reflecting damage back, like from thorns.

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

For those wondering why Energy Shield (and CI) looks so obviously better than life in PoE 2, this may be part of the answer. Sure you can stack more of it, what with all the bonkers ES nodes on the tree, compared to next to no life nodes on the tree. However the delay for it to start recovering has been doubled compared to PoE 1, it recharges A LOT slower (taking 8 seconds to recharge fully compared to 3 seconds in PoE 1), and there's no keystone to prevent damage from interrupting your ES recharge anymore. So your giant ES pool is gonna be chipped away unless you can create breaks for yourself of taking no damage for quite a while to let it recover. And note that you're gonna be investing a lot more points on the tree to get all those bonkers ES nodes, where a life build will invest it elsewhere.

[@legoshark99]

I kinda predicted a few days ago based on the sheer potency of ES recharge nodes on the tree compared to ones that give *more* energy shield, that ES would be a lot better as a base layer of defense than in 1. I'm pretty glad I was right.

[@Frubeling]

Chaos monk no care

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

@@Frubeling Leech resistance is a thing in PoE 2. I suspect you'll find leech isn't as powerful in PoE 2 as it is in PoE 1, at least later on as the leech resistance goes up.

[@IncredibleGoliath]

@@legoshark99 it's not clear whether its better, though, or just different.

[@CouchOwner2]

the base mana regen being higher is nice. the base in PoE1 is so low it's basically nonexistent until you've gotta so much flat mana from levels that you're in maps. i imagine this is part of the base % regen being higher, but it also means that %inc mana regen will be more useful rather than being an increase to a, as in PoE1, practically nonexistent value. Also, the higher base regen suggests mana won't stack to as high a magnitudes as it does in PoE1, but hard to say.

[@DayOfCasual]

How is the existence of tabs bad? I'd rather click a tab that scroll 30 kilometers (or 17,23 girafe feet for you US folks) to see what I need.

[@abysmalblade]

They have all that real estate under armor i don't know why they didn't just put in an estimated light, medium and heavy hit% oh well no big deal

stun and ailment we already have in PoE 1, its just in defense (chance to avoid stun/freeze/shock/ignite)

[@Lucas-GR]

the wait is dealing massive physical damage over time to me

[@vincentsels]

Armour mentions physical damage from 'Attacks' and 'Spells' (without dotted lines under them). I dind't think they were still used? I thought it was all Strikes, Projectiles, large telegraphed attacks, and DoT? Did they just forget to update that UI text, or do they still exist?

[@greenfoxgrasstail2534]

Apprecicate the math. Was something i was wondering about.

[@NoXterium]

there we are

[@Bripfitz]

wait so if you go CI, you need bleed and poison immunity, not necessarily chaos EDIT: thanks for the comments, that's a load off my mind :)

[@SilentderLaute]

Bleed can only Proc if the Hit deals direct damage to HP. So you are safe from bleed. And Poison deals chaos damage.

[@246Rennie]

Poison is chaos damage so CI makes you immune and Bleeding only applies if you take health damage so it's a also not a problem.

[@joeherndez40]

No more crit chance and multiplier?

[@KrisHammes]

​@@246Renniewow I had no idea about that with bleed. Has that always been the case?

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

@@KrisHammes No. It's a change from how it works in PoE 1.

[@NemisCassander]

Question for you, @dreamcore_gg. Did you have any Chaos resistance on gear in the screenshot you showed? As I understand it, we receive a 10% penalty to our resistances per Act, and that checks with your -10% Lightning Resistance. OTOH, you had 0% Chaos Resistance. So I'm wondering whether you had 10% Chaos REsistance on gear or tree, or if the per-act reductions are only to Elemental Resistances.

[@dreamcore_gg]

Just checked again and I don't think I had any chaos res anywhere, so the penalty seems to only impact elemental resistances by the looks of it

[@Smorb42]

​@dreamcore_gg maybe because chaos resistance is harder to get early, they don't start giving you negative values until cruel and maps or something?

[@dreamcore_gg]

@@Smorb42 Very possible

[@kothemagica]

with much lower ES recharge rate and a longer time before ES starts recharging, ES seems to be way worse in POE2

[@МистерТвистер-н4я]

@@kothemagica no one used recharge in poe 1 anyway except in group play with vaal discipline. So in poe 2 i think it will be the same. Es leech and %regen.

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

There's almost no life percent on the tree, but there's tons of that for ES. So you can achieve MUCH higher amounts of total ES if you put points in it. You'll just have to take safety breaks so that ES doesn't get chipped down. Or find some other recovery.

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

@@МистерТвистер-н4я Keep in mind that leech will be countered by leech resistance in PoE 2, making it weaker. And it looks like regen won't be as big in 2 as it was in 1 as well.

[@Zho_Zho]

Wtf , bleeding bypass energy shield ?? So got insta killed while CI??

[@S3frog]

4% base regen is quite a lot. My plan of going balls-to-the-wall into mana stacking with MoM and Archmage might be viable. I just wonder if the ~5% mana cost from Archmage is multiplied by support gem multipliers like in PoE1.

[@hanarielgodlike9283]

Where do you get the skill tree and gear modifier?

[@palleppalsson]

Just 6 days?! Try not to breathe for just 6 days. 😁

[@beziocraft]

A spoiler a day keeps the insanity at bay Many thanks

[@meruzenaMH]

so int doesn't give %increased maximum energy shield anymore?

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

No. There's much bigger amounts of that stat on the tree tho.

[@meruzenaMH]

@@ArawnOfAnnwn so basically int stacking is only for lightning spells/MoM/Archmage enjoyers

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

@@meruzenaMH That entirely depends on what uniques are there, which we don't know right now.

[@andrewnelson1375]

Bleeding going through ES is going to be rough for CI

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

Quite the opposite. Bleed only procs if you take hit damage to life, so CI makes you effectively bleed immune.

[@МистерТвистер-н4я]

They said they gonna change armour mechanics so it would be easy to understand, they didn't change it or what? Do they plan to change it before release? Because rn it looks the same as in poe 1

[@mirages797]

Armour applies to spells too, you don't have to care about spell suppression etc.

[@МистерТвистер-н4я]

@mirages797 i mean its cool but i still cant intuitively say how much armor i need against a certain hits

[@Rykarie]

So we can expect only like 3k hp on our warriors mid-late game with decent gear and str?

[@JohnCharles-m7g]

Did they ever confirm they were removing suppression and deflect?

[@mirages797]

Yeap, Johnathan confirmed

[@TheTerspet]

I cant find it anywhere because i am... Not the best google user apparently, what stats do strenght exactly give? Life only ?

[@mmking9999]

In POE1, Strength grants life and Melee damage. I assume it's the same for POE2.

[@Koncentrator666]

1:42 "Damage from Bleeding and Poison bypass ES to remove life directly." Yo that's kinda big. CI builds will require more investment in order to deal with bleed, otherwise any white mob will be able to hit you with a bleed and you will return to lumbridge. I haven't seen any good ways of dealing with ailments so far, and charms alone are not going to be reliable enough to deal with such a down side.

[@dreamcore_gg]

Bleeding needs to deal damage to life to be inflicted, so CI builds are pseudo immune to bleeding

So we still gonna have to deal with -60 res?

[@dreamcore_gg]

I believe so, but it seems each act inflicts -10% instead of receiving it in two chunks of -30%

Hmm that might be actually better.

[@Idzie_Bieda]

No more reflected damage in POE2??

[@wallacewest7963]

Do we know if we get reductions to resistances at certain points in the campaign like poe1?

[@dreamcore_gg]

It looks like -10% at the end of each act

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

Yes. -10 per Act, reaching -60 by endgame. Same as PoE 1, but evenly spread out.

[@lusca_costa]

I would love poe 2 to have addons, so we can create some custom utility stuff, anyway, the game already surpass any expectatives

[@Ashtarte3D]

Wait bleeding ignores ES now? CI characters just gonna fall over immediately to bleeds? LOL

[@sneakygod6885]

how u get -10% lightning resistance?

[@cyruslupercal9493]

You get -10% after each Act.

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

From completing Act 1. You get a resistance penalty of -10 from each Act, for -60 by endgame.

[@uumas]

wait if damage from bleed and poison bypasses ES naturally you can pretty much toss CI in the trash without a way to circumevent that or be immune to bleed and poison all the time

[@piotrkon3852]

well CI solves the poison part but im not sure about bleed though

[@vatinas7214]

Bleed damage taken is based on the health damage of the hit, so if a hit is fully absorbed by ES, you can't be inflicted with bleeding from that hit. So CI = bleed immunity. As for poison, I'm pretty sure it will deal chaos damage, so CI should make you immune to it as well.

[@МистерТвистер-н4я]

Yeah, ci now is a bleed and poison and chaos damage immunity in one keystone, pretty strong imo.

[@mirages797]

CI makes you immune to poison as it is chaos damage, and immune to bleeding as it only applies to you if enemy hit damage your health. You have only es, so no one can apply bleeding to you

[@matthewschwartz6486]

CI makes you immune to poison because it's chaos damage, and as he said you only get inflicted with bleed if you take damage to your life directly. If you're CI and you take damage to your life you're dead anyway, so you're "immune" to bleed.

[@ArtemUskov]

Does Intelligence increase ES?

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

No. There's much bigger numbers of that stat on the tree tho.

[@AlucardNoir]

Wait, they separated chaos dmg and poison?

[@ArawnOfAnnwn]

Poison still deals chaos damage. It always had its own specific properties even in PoE 1, like it arising from physical and chaos hits and being able to stack. It has its own properties in PoE 2 as well, being able to stack (but you have to get those stacks on the tree and gear) and bypasses ES, which chaos dmg doesn't inherently do anymore.

[@Crimsonsentinel8]

Bleed goes through ES? So will CI builds need to be bleed immune?

[@dreamcore_gg]

Bleed can only be inflicted by a hit that deals damage to life

[@FzNd]

Bleed damage is based on damage taken to your health. With CI, you never take damage to your health (unless you die, of course :D) so with CI you are effectively immune to Bleed. It bypasses ES in the sense that, if you take a hit once your ES is down, the Bleeding continues ticking form your life, even if your ES recharges. At least that's my understanding of it, but I might be wrong. Bottom line: With CI you should be immune to bleed. If that isn't the case, there must be another source of Bleed immunity that will be mandatory for CI builds. Otherwise the Keystone would be entirely useless.

Hope i`m wrong !!

[@lennoyl]

Thanks for the video. I didn't know that bleeding bypassed ES. I can't imagine people that will try Chaos Inoculation (that doesn't seem modified) without knowing that...

[@cyruslupercal9493]

Bleeding bypasses ES once it is inflicted, but the magnitude only counts damage to life. So as long as you have ES you can't be bled.

[@emmas1366]

bleed is only inflicted if it hits life

[@ShiroyWolf]

Bleeding, as far as we know, is based on the damage that was dealt to life only. So with CI you are effectively immune to bleeds.

[@NemisCassander]

Bleeding damage bypasses ES, true, but bleeding cannot be applied while the defender has ES. Therefore, CI is fine for bleeding. (And it should be noted that CI effectively makes you immune to Bleeding.)

[@GibbonsFTW]

It doesn't in POE 2 and CI makes you immune to chaos damage, bleed is chaos damage.

[@ollivainionpaa684]

Much worse character sheet, less informative than poe1's as it had everything about your character's current status. Now they are scattered all around and by the look of that sheet they have prioritized the most "meaningful" stats. This new PoE2 character sheet will be more confusing as it indicates with larger icons that "focus these stats" which is wrong approach in any video game. Most important stat in 100% of the game is speed, even chess.
