Good day everyone! This is a video I've had in the back of my mind for some time now. I was one of those odd players who has been eagerly anticipating a more balanced version of this franchise I love. One not plagued by 10+ years of rampant power creep and with a certain idleness about reigning it back. After all, one of the major promises of Path of Exile 2 was a return to meaningful & methodical gameplay, where even a most decked out character would still have to contend with the content.

While I'm not surprised to see the lack of endgame testing reveal itself with obviously broken scaling in some builds, I am surprised at the overall difference in challenge between the campaign and the rest of the game. Either the developers completely overlooked power scaling in endgame early endgame, or they're (once again) showing a certain apathy towards making this a more challenging game than its predecessor. I would like to see a return to form with the original Vision still intact. What are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments!
