Path of Exile 2 Beta

I thought I would start a thread for this absolutely tremendous game in the console section too. It's an arpg similar to diablo but I feel its way way better - the dodge roll not being on a timer makes this so much nicer to play.

I'm near the end of act 3 on my 2 handed mace weilding warrior class. If anyone has any cool advice, tips, build or thoughts I would love to hear back. I'm running on ps5 pro with pssr set to ultra performance and it runs fantastically well and looks great .

I'm hoping trading with other players becomes much easier. An in game auction house with no need to manually enter another players world would be ideal. On console it's very fiddly to trade currently - I have managed to buy things but I've not fully figured out selling yet (I have a premium stash tab but I'm not sure what to do when someone agrees to buy - its very unintuitive)

Act 3 is tough with a warrior. I've hit a bit of a wall with the molten vaults boss as my dps is not high enough to beat him before the larva drowns me at the end. I went back and did trial of schema and trial of chaos to get some ascendancy points. I think I might have to farm for a bit.

I'm finally making progress after grabbing the giants blood passive - allowing me to duel wield 2 handed weapons - my dps is now crazy . I've downed a couple of act 3 bosses and feel much better about my build

Was enjoying this but find it so much slower paced than poe 1. Had some nice builds that I was following from youtube bu they keep getting nerfed.

I hit a wall a few days ago and just farmed gold and xp for a bit, used the gold to respec and the extra levels helped me power through.

I've completed the base difficulty now and moved to cruel difficulty.

My warrior is also pretty slow- having movement speed on boots helps but my current boots don't have it.
