Recently, the Path of Exile community was especially upset about the way GGG is going to handle the so-called “Harvest-crafting” in the original Path of Exile. Essentially, Harvest was a past League that dealt with one issue gamers have been complaining about for ages. Namely, how players could craft Exalted Orb and sparking a lot of discussion when the nerf announcement came in.

This is relevant because Path of Exile 2 should, by all means, have deterministic crafting methods if it is to be successful in its niche. Of course, crafting doesn’t need to become too easy, making strong, game-breaking items too accessible for the general audience. Rather, Path of Exile 2 should keep the complexity of its predecessor has, while also building on its foundations and further expand on the possibilities expert crafters want to have.

The promised new footage of Path of Exile 2 will give fans the chance to witness how its development is going, while also teasing what may come further down the line. Among the changes that were already announced, there are nineteen brand-new Ascendancy classes for the base set of Exiles that will be available to select from when having a fresh start. Another big change is coming in the form of the game's engine being completely reworked and improved, allowing for better POE Currency and game performance stability.

Finally, GGG also announced that it would radically change the way sockets work today. As of now, they are specific color and items. It’s going to change with Path of Exile 2 and sockets will become Skill Gem, which gave players a lot more room to experiment with the variety of builds. Players should also buy more POE Currency to support Path of Exile and their own development. Go forward!
