As the release date of the full version of POE 2 is getting closer, many players are looking forward to it. However, because the full version has not been released yet, players are more concerned about the relevant content of POE 2 patch 0.2.0.
The Release Date Of 0.2.0 Is Still Unclear
Even though there is news that POE 2 0.2.0 will be released soon, there is no clear date at present, but we can reasonably guess the approximate release date from several aspects.
First, as early as February, Grinding Gear Games admitted that there was only more than a month left before the 0.2.0 update, which greatly attracted the attention of players and whetted their appetite.
Secondly, in order to let players wait for the update in a better state, the developers held three competitions. The winning players can get different prizes and corresponding Path Of Exile 2 Currency, and the last event date is March 16. Therefore, we guess that POE 2 0.2.0 will be released in mid-to-late March.
Adjustments
This time, the developers have focused more changes on the player experience. For example, many elements have been deleted and added based on the community comments of Early Access, and some classes have been debuffed according to the requirements of players. In terms of game content, the developers have also worked hard to develop some interesting story lines and quest lines based on the suggestions of players.
Upcoming Items
The most anticipated thing in this update is whether new items will be launched. The answer is obvious. In the official video, we found unfamiliar items-Bringer of Rain helmet and Hammer of Faith weapon.
Bringer of Rain helmet is a very cool equipment. Players who own it can use two-handed weapons with one hand, which improves the overall armor level of the player. But correspondingly, players must also bear the disadvantages of this equipment, that is, players must use the helmet naked.
In addition, this helmet has high requirements for players. Only players who reach the end of the game and are above level 52 are eligible to wear it. Coupled with the attributes of the helmet itself, this helmet may only attract players who are interested in super-aggressive players, and has certain player limitations.
Hammer of Faith is different. It is a powerful but slow weapon. Although it grants shrine effect buffs to players every 10 seconds, the buffs are relatively random, and the speed is very slow during the struggle, and it may not attack once a second.
Therefore, there is no perfect weapon. Players need to choose according to the attributes and characteristics of each weapon to ensure that they can play the greatest role in the arena.
New Gladiator Class?
Since this update will launch new equipment, will the developers launch new classes? We don’t know this, but GGG once said that since most of the functions of Druid and Huntress classes are already relatively complete, the Gladiator class is more likely to be launched with other classes.
Players have high expectations for this update, and many players believe that POE 2 will get better and better, so the developers must live up to the expectations of players and bring players a more substantial and realistic game feel.
