POE2 | Atlas Progression Tips & How to Sustain Maps

[@Schizm1]

Map sustain - You can reforge 3 maps of same tier and get one map of highier tier. (And since you can buy infinite no. of tier 1 maps you should be good)

[@butcherbigballs101]

You realise it costs millions of gold to do this and get 1 T16 ? This is not a solution

[@pbc1337]

I thought GGG said that when you died you essentially brick that pathway on your atlas. Did they change before EA release ? Also would a reason #4 to clear the map is if you still dont have a hideout ?

[@Brumak4eva]

They did change it, yupp. There's a specific symbol for hideouts on the map, so you can look for that.

[@rileystrom8530]

Hideouts do not work like the old system in poe1. Near where you start, there is a specific map near you that has the hideout icon. That map is smaller and is literally just the layout of your hideout once you unlock it, which you can do by completing the map.

[@Fourside__]

Wait you lose even more resist in higher maps? Sometimes i really wonder how such ideas get through over at GGG.

[@63Limar]

"What if we make elemental weakness curse on all high tier maps?" GGG probably

[@LazyPandaBum]

To be fair, you only get -40% after finishing the campaign (if you get all the permanent upgrades) and it's only in red maps where you get the full penalty as in PoE1. To be fair to be fair, as someone who never played any of the Diablo games (I assume this is where resistance penalty originated), this mechanic makes absolutely no sense and I prefer what Last Epoch did with resistances.

[@GreelTheMindRaker]

Very helpful, thanks for the detailed explanations. I was lost

[@LifeIMO]

Are you liking the warbringer more than the blood mage?

[@jonathangrimes8975]

I imagine, can't get much worse than blood mage

[@jakkrit6910]

he literally said in stream he don't like "this" state of bloodmage.

[@jonathangrimes8975]

@@jakkrit6910 yeah it needs quite a bit of work before it's anywhere near optimal, changing sanguimancy to 50/50 would help alot and make the ascendancy fairly good defensively, but it lacks so much offensive power compared to other ascendancies

[@puzzzzzzaW]

Hey! Nice vidéo! Im just missing one thing that no content creator cover… can you explain how to get each league mecanic atlas passive point? I dont have any even of I do these mecanic in map?

[@comoteflat]

May I ask the specifications of your PC?

[@KrisHammes]

Im sure as they flesh it out it will get better but for me i prefer to have the goal of all the maps to complete with atlas points for each. I much prefer bosses at the end of each map so that you could focus your build on boss killing. Rare hunt doesnt really feel good.... This all might be duebto my first build though. I got to 80 with minions and got bored, enjoying levelling a gemling monk now so perhaps that will feel good in maps

[@levicarnus1591]

Is grinding XP also a good reason to want to full clear a map, or do rare mobs, bosses and league mechanics give the most XP?

[@rileystrom8530]

Probably really depends on whether or not you'd die to the increased danger. If you're not gonna die, prolly better to go next considering it doesn't take that much time to open.

[@ironfreddy3192]

I would think about the map layout. If it's bad and I'll lose too much time, I would exit and do another one. If it's good, then I would clear until the remaining monsters are less than 50. Especially if your waystones have good modifiers.

[@WikiED]

I've been using super rippy maps on the Towers since i know it should be easier than normal map without having to discard the map entirely.

[@BallBusta]

Well that helps me out a lot. I've been stuck on Tier 1 maps and starving for Tier 2.

[@Sidnv]

One thing Pohx forgot to mention (unless I'm dumb and missed it) is that you can use the reforging bench to convert 3 of one tier of a map to 1 map one tier higher.

[@WarsWorth]

Oh that's so good to know thanks ​@@Sidnv

[@TreesPlease42]

Juicy stuff tyty

[@ImmortalProGamer]

Where can i get your HO?

[@WarsWorth]

Afaik, hideouts are randomly spawned around the atlas and you have to search around for them

[@TheCosmicAstro-]

Can barely map. Not sure what they did but im getting booted to login screen almost every time i try to enter a map. Im sorta ok with it though cause mapping sucks lmao. Plus no map tab makes waystones annoying af to hold

[@kaku3901]

@@TheCosmicAstro- u need to get hideout. Hideout not bugged. Hideout prolly couple maps away, felles higeground spot. If 1 map bugs, run another. Till u get hideout. Then run there

[@fabiangaupp8953]

I openend a Wandering trader map which had only Unique Items. All were garbage. After I went on for my next map, it was written that I failed the map. What did I do wrong? I also bought an item, for no reason

[@DarkWhite-t]

Same here. "Bought" an item, went another map, map failed. I guess it's just a bug rn. Update: went to play game after watching this video, and my node with trader was fixed. Now it's "map complete" and lets me go to adjacent nodes. Nice!

[@undeadspez]

You must kill all rare mobs. Wandering trader had nothing to do with it. If its a tower, you must find activation room

[@longdh1710]

​@@undeadspez That map has no mobs sir.

[@justjay3750]

i enjoyed the game up to t2 to t3 maps and just lost interest fast, cant get 5th and 6th ascension pts, cant sustain maps, get one shot by map bosses. skill issue, get good, say what you will i. just not enjoying the game anymore. i think they will balance things better before launch.

[@Aijendo]

We just have finished the first week of the EA, 6-12 months to go for release.

[@mdashrafuzzamansunny2145]

It's not the games fault that you suck

[@justjay3750]

​@@mdashrafuzzamansunny2145 fantastic point, I'd love to hear more of your mind blowing revelations.

[@mdashrafuzzamansunny2145]

@@justjay3750 what do you want me to say? I'm in t15s without any issues and I'm not even playing that optimally. You just suck maybe take some to learn the game rather than button mashing?

[@kaku3901]

You prolly went for dmg in tutorial and then the real game rekt you. Did same and did same in poe 1. Survival more important than dmg. U get surviving down, you go for dmg. Now im sorceress with block and block shield, my mana is my life and i rege 400 mana per sek. I just dont die anymore. Now scaling dmg and will add energy shield.

[@toukoenriaze9870]

Losing 60% res in poe1 was already bad enough and now they wanna make us lose more oof

[@Hitex555]

Tbf you get 20% res From quest rewards, still sucks that the penalty Is not communicated, And you can only notice it in character sheet

[@krystiankaczmarek3597]

for the algo

[@RFlairPC]

POE 2 is the great filter. No skill build copy and pastels are seething. Loving it

[@yungjaxa]

34 secs ago is unreal holyyyy

[@r3mlapydna]

second

[@TreeTrunks8264]

Omg dude mapping looks awful

[@jonathangrimes8975]

Why ? It's really not that complicated

[@TreeTrunks8264]

@ I’m a Poe 1 vet bro I’m not worried about it being complicated it just looks slow and boring

[@TheCosmicAstro-]

Yeah mapping sucks. The mob hp and damage increase from end of campaign is also crazy. If you haven't been super lucky with gear or somehow trading with the zero currency that's dropping, you basically have to farm the campaign to upgrade your gear just to start mapping. Its just not good dude. PLUS, Breach is crazy overtuned, you will likely insta-die if you dont have insane clear. Haven't touched delirium yet as I'm guessing its way overtuned as well

[@cauthrim4298]

If it looks slow and boring then look at people who do it fast and question why in the f would you think poe 1 mapping is not boring lol
