Path Of Exile 2 Dawn Of The Hunt Impact On The Official Version And POE 1: What’s The Difference?

Path of Exile 2 is about to bring its biggest patch to players: Dawn of The Hunt. In addition to adding new classes, numerous new items will be added to the new patch. These include new skill gems and more than 100 unique items and more than 100 new support gems.

Skill Gems

Path of Exile 2 Dawn Of The Hunt patch can be regarded as a new season. All players entering the new season need to start from scratch and cannot carry any items, including currency. Due to the addition of new classes, the game will add new skill gems in the next update. The developer revealed some of the new skill gems in the live broadcast.

The Summon Rhoa Mount

This skill allows you to summon a mount, allowing you to shoot long-range while moving. This skill can make up for the movement speed penalty suffered by the character when performing long-range attacks. But if you take a lot of damage on the mount, you will be knocked off the mount and stunned. It can be seen that this skill is designed specifically for Huntress.

Raise Spectre

Raise Spectre is another skill mentioned in the live broadcast. It can turn any monster you defeat into your servant. However, the stronger the monster, the more Spirit it consumes. This skill should be prepared for Ascendancy class Lich in Witch.

Unique Items

In Dawn Of The Hunt patch, the game will add new weapon types, and therefore many unique items will be added to the game. These new unique items include weapons, amulets, and gems. You can encounter these new unique items in the mid-game and endgame.

However, all players must also know that there is a saying of “unique trap” in POE 2. Many unique items are not necessarily better than the best rare items in your backpack, especially when you get unique items in the early game. So it is a good habit that exchange unique items which you don’t need in your backpack with other players for currency.

Let’s take a look at what unique items are in the 0.2.0 patch.

Chernobog’s Pillar

• Shield
• Requires Level 65, Strength 118, 86 Dex
• Grants Skill: Raise shield
• +126% Increased Armor
• +38 Fire Resistance
• +37 Chaos Resistance
• +167 Stun Threshold
• The more times this shield blocks, the more you can set your enemies on fire

This unique shield first appeared in Path of Exile 1, and now it returns in Path of Exile 2 with an upgraded art. This unique weapon not only increases the wearer’s resistance but also increases the wearer’s ability to deal fire damage, which may work well with Warrior Ascendancy class Smith of Kitava.

The Coming Calamity

• Heroic Armor
• Requires: Level 84, Strength86, Dex 86
• Grants Skill: Level 19 Herald of Ice, Level 19 Herald of Thunder, Level 19 Herald of Ash
• +74 to maximum life
• +37% to all elemental resistances
• Enemies in front of you lose elemental resistances

This is a very powerful body armor. If your class relies mainly on elemental attacks, then you almost have to equip this unique armor in the endgame. However, this unique armor has high stat and level requirements, and may be best used by monks. It can be predicted that in Dawn Of The Hunt patch, there will be players willing to trade many POE 2 Divine Orbs for this unique item.

Calgyra’s Arc

• Bucker
• Requires: Level 52, Dex 95
• Grants Skill: Parry
• 82% increased Evasion rating
• +80 maximum mana
• +15 Intelligent
• Blocks projectiles from any distance
• Increases the duration of Parry by 50%

This unique item is perfect for a Huntress who needs to equip a small round shield in the off-hand. Although Dex requirement of this unique item is high, the ability to block projectiles completely is good enough to make me willing to buy POE 2 Currency for it. This unique item can be very effective against certain bosses.

Beira’s Anguish

• Charm
• Requires: Level 32
• Makes your character immune to the Ignited effect
• Gives a charge when killing an Ignited enemy
• Ignites the enemy in the explosion and deals a percentage of your maximum life to it

This unique item is suitable for Witch or Mercenary, and is very suitable for creating chain explosions in places with many monsters, greatly improving the efficiency of farming currency.

Waistgate

• Heavy Belt
• Requires: Level 32
• +23% stun threshold
• +75 max life
• +61 max mana
• Increases the recovery rate of life flasks by 23%
• Increases the recovery rate of mana flasks by 25%
• Mana flasks and life flasks can be equipped in either slot

A more general belt that can help classes that rely on flask recovery.

Saitha’s Spear

• Spear
• Requires: Level 33, Dex 60, Strength 25
• Increases physical damage by 22 to 27
• Increases fire damage by 27 to 36
• Increases the chance of bleeding on hit by 20%
• Combines bleeding and fire to intensify the burning effect
• 10% chance of intensifying the bleeding effect on hit
• Cannot use projectile attacks

Spear is the weapon of Huntress. This unique weapon requires a level of 33, so it is more suitable for use in the third act.

Support Gems

Some support gems will be added in Dawn Of The Hunt:

• Haemocrystals: Supports the formation of bleeding. Converts continuous damage (DoT) into explosive Varu crystals.
• Alignment: Supports bow attacks. Skills can increase projectile damage by more than 30% when attacking in the indicated direction.
• Caltrops: Spawn Caltrops on the battlefield and throws spears to pierce the enemy formation, slowing them down.
• Enormity: Enhances the damage of minions.

The above are the new items known in the 0.2.0 patch. They are all quite valuable, and I am willing to exchange them with my currency to enhance my build. There are more new items and new features waiting for players to try, and you must be impatient.

Whenever you explore the vast open world provided by major ARPGs, you will definitely think that it would be great if you could fight with friends! Although the game sometimes provides you with built-in partners through systems such as pets or mercenaries, they are not comparable to real people after all.

In the past, in POE 1, you could form a team of 2-6 people by yourself by creating your own party or joining someone else’s party to start your multiplayer journey. However, cross-play and co-op functions have not been added and improved, which is obviously not conducive to the development of the game.

Therefore, under the influence of market trends and the requirements of players, Path of Exile 2 early access finally added these features to provide you with a better multiplayer and cross-play experience. Based on this, we will introduce you one by one how to experience these features in POE 2.

How To Add Friends?

To add friends in POE, you only need to know their username and tag number, and since POE 2 is now a completely cross-platform game, you will not be restricted by the system or platform when adding friends. The specific operation is as follows:

• Find the “Social” tab on the game screen and continue to find and open the “Friends” tab.
• In the “Friend Invite” box, enter the username of the friend you want to invite, as well as the number after the “#” symbol after the other party’s name.
• After making sure that everything you entered is correct, click “Send”. Your friend will receive your request in his “Social” tab and complete the friend addition after agreeing.

If the other party has not agreed, you can check whether your request was sent successfully in the “Friends” tab under the “Received Invitations” box. In addition, you can also view all online and offline friends from here. If someone else has sent you a friend request, you can also find these requests in your “Social” tab and choose to agree or reject them as needed.

It should be noted that although the appearance of the “Social” tab of POE 2 will change slightly depending on the gaming device you are using, the menu operates in the same way.

How To Form A Party?

After adding enough friends, it’s time to form a party to fight as a team! But before that, you need to know that all POE 2 Divine Orbs or other orbs obtained in a team situation needs to be distributed before it can be obtained. If you can accept this, please follow the steps below to form a party:

• Find and click the “Create a Party” tab on the social menu, and choose to create a party or join someone else’s party as needed.
• If you want to create a party, select the corresponding option and invite any online friends to join.
• You can then set restrictions for the party as needed, such as fully public or only open to friends and invitees.
• You will receive a notification when someone joins the party so that everyone can gather in the same place to complete the team.
• To join a friend’s party, click on their name on your friends list, and if their party is open to friends, you can join. But if your friend’s party is set to be open to invitees only, you need their invitation to join the party.

It is worth noting that if you have joined a guild in POE 2 before, you can view all the online people in the guild and send them a private message to invite them to the party. If you’re not already a member of a guild, you can also join one and then view or send invites. Also, remember that everything related to friends and parties in POE 2 is done through the social menu.

How To Play Co-op?

All above are available in Path of Exile 1, but co-op is a feature that is only available in the second game, allowing you to play with another person from the same system as you. Here’s how:

• Connect two controllers to your system and create two different characters.
• Go to the character selection screen and find the settings option in the top left corner, then go to the input menu and make sure your input is set to “controller”.
• Back in the character selection screen, select a character with the corresponding controller: player 1 will be on the left side of the screen, player 2 will be on the right.

If you find that creating a second character fails, this may mean that your second controller is not connected or not working properly, so just follow the steps again. Once you have both characters up and running, your screen will split in two and you can play with your friend! However, it is worth noting that co-op is the same as normal team play, whether you and your friends get POE 2 Currency or other more precious loot together, you must distribute them.

Can Cross-Play Be Disabled?

Although this feature is one of the new features of POE 2, you may only want to meet players from a specific system in the game due to other needs or personal preferences. However, the trouble is that the game currently seems to have no way to disable cross-play on all devices: if you are using Xbox Series X|S or PS5, you can disable it through the settings of the host, if you are a PC player, you can’t do this for the time being. However, this situation may change after the official version of the game is launched.

The above is all the possibilities of multiplayer play in Path of Exile 2 that we provide for you, as well as the corresponding operation methods. I hope it can help you! I wish you a happy game!

After more than 3 months of adjustments and balancing, Path of Exile 2 early access will finally usher in its first official major update on April 4, which is 0.2.0 Dawn of the Hunt. Unlike the previous fragmented patches, Dawn of the Hunt will bring you a lot of new content as the first season of the game to lay a good foundation for the launch of the official version.

Overview Of Dawn Of The Hunt

The core content of this major update is mainly new classes, economic reset and new endgame content. Other details worth your attention include several enhancements to Atlas passive skill tree and reworked towers. In this way, you will have more available skills and strategies to broaden your POE 2 Currency farming channels.

In general, Dawn of the Hunt will further improve the world and system of Wraeclast on the basis of increasing your playable content, so that it can present better effects when the official version of POE 2 is launched in the future.

Possible New Classes

Based on the known information, and in order to improve the class lineup of the first phase of the early access, it is expected that Dawn of the Hunt may bring Huntress and Druid as the next batch of new classes.

Among them, Huntress is a more agile class, good at setting traps, commanding soldiers and launching ranged attacks, and her passive skills can improve the character’s speed, evasion and critical hit attributes. If you like the hit-and-run game style or the mixed style summoner build, then Huntress will be a good fit for you.

As a classic class type in most ARPGs, Druid will bring the ability to transform into POE 2, giving you the opportunity to launch melee attacks on enemies by transforming into a beast in battle or use the power of nature to output elemental magic. The flexibility of providing front-line damage and supporting teammates at the same time will make Druid the first choice for POE 2’s versatile class in the future.

New Region-Wildlands

In order to further expand the game background and storyline, the 0.2.0 update will introduce Wildlands as a new region. As its name suggests, everything here is untamed, full of dangerous animals, ancient ruins and mysterious savage tribes, and what you have to do is to cross the obstacles, explore the secrets behind this land and eliminate the hidden evil forces.

Interestingly, in Wildlands, you are expected to experience highly immersive dynamic weather and environmental hazards, making your Path of Exile 2 journey more realistic. For example, thick fog will block enemies, heavy rain will limit your visibility, and strong winds will affect the effectiveness of your ranged attacks, and you will have to adjust your combat strategy in time because of these factors.

New Endgame Content

In order to make the new region more present, the 0.2.0 update will introduce new endgame content, that is, the hunting system and the corresponding final boss. After entering the hunting system, you will encounter various powerful beasts in Wildlands. Only by completing multi-stage hunting on the basis of good team preparation and equipped gear can you get useful POE 2 Divine Orbs.

It is expected that each hunt will end with a large-scale boss battle, and the boss battle will have multiple stages and unique mechanisms - winning will get rich rewards, and losing is likely to be cruelly punished.

Upgrades To Combat-Related Mechanisms

The updates in this area mainly include changes to three mechanisms: weapons, support gems, and passive skill trees, because they are closely related to your combat experience.

1. Weapon Specialization

POE 2 may allow weapons in the game to obtain a specialization system through Dawn of the Hunt, which allows you to customize weapons with custom modules, while also increasing your freedom of builds customization. For example, allowing bows to increase projectile speed because of reducing their critical hit chance, or staffs can output more elemental damage by sacrificing mana efficiency.

2. Support Gem System Remake

Since the beginning of the launch, some players have reported that the support gem system in the game is slightly redundant, and they cannot feel their role more intuitively when using their benefits to fight. Therefore, POE 2 has also decided to simplify this mechanism in the new season to make the related construction planning more intuitive. In addition, it is expected that some new support gems will be introduced for you, so that you can get more enhanced skills and synergy effects.

3. Upgraded Passive Skill Tree

As one of the most important systems of POE 2, the passive skill tree deserves to be better. For this reason, Dawn of the Hunt will make the whole system easier to use by adding functions such as waypoints so that you can navigate directly to major keystones or Ascendancy nodes.

Updated Visual Effects & Animations

In addition to the above gameplay upgrades, Path of Exile 2 is expected to optimize the visual effects of the game in the new season. By introducing a major graphics overhaul, the lighting, dynamic shadows and particle effects in the game are more refined and realistic, making all game scenes and battle scenes more 3D.

In addition, it is expected that the built-in animations of the game, including deformation, summoning and certain melee attack scenes, will also become smoother through updates, making the look and feel of the battle more impactful, thereby further narrowing the gap between POE 2 and other high-end modern ARPGs.

In addition to the above, you may have the opportunity to experience more new content after the 0.2.0 update Dawn of the Hunt is officially launched, and all this means that the official version is not far away! Let’s wait and see!

If you were asked to make a plan for playing Path of Exile 2, you might write “defeat bosses” in a place like “final goal”. In fact, this is very correct, because only by defeating as many bosses as possible can you possibly complete POE 2 (currently in early access), or let the death of the early bosses drop some essential items for defeating the later bosses.

Many of the difficult POE 2 bosses will only appear after you enter the endgame, such as one of the pinnacle bosses, The King in the Mists. Although defeating and repeatedly farming this boss can bring you a lot of benefits, the tricky thing is that unlocking the related encounter requires an item called An Audience with the King, which is not easy to obtain.

How To Get An Audience With The King?

As one of the rare items in POE 2, An Audience with the King can be used at Realmgate in Atlas to unlock the battle with The King in the Mists. There are two ways to get it at the moment: farming Ritual Altars or trading with other players by consuming POE 2 Currency.

1. Farming Rituals

An Audience with the King is not only a very rare trophy after the battle, but even after it appears, you need to exchange it with tribute to get it - it’s actually more like a randomly generated item in the store. If you want to know if the item is included in Rituals that appear in all map nodes, you must clear all Rituals before you can check. Fortunately, the item can also appear in low-level maps, which means you don’t have to find another way to increase the map level.

If you still don’t get An Audience with the King after clearing all Rituals, you can use 1000 tributes to click the button at the top of the screen to re-roll the reward pool. However, since Audience with the king requires 2500 to 7000 tributes, even if you get it this way, you probably won’t have enough tribute to exchange.

To avoid this as much as possible, it is recommended that you use the delay function at the bottom of the rewards menu to delay the appearance of An Audience with the King. This way, although you will need more time to encounter it, the number of tributes required to redeem it will be reduced according to the discount, and this discount can be repeated.

However, under this mechanism, the more valuable the item, the longer it will take to return, so you should be able to foresee that it will take a long time for An Audience with the King to return, but don’t worry, it will eventually appear. And because An Audience with the King requires too many tributes, it is best to postpone it repeatedly, and you need to clear dozens of Ritual maps for this, which has to be said to be very hard.

2. Trade With Other Players

If you don’t have that much time to invest in Path of Exile 2, or just don’t want to suffer through repeated farming, you can choose to trade, which is a simpler and more direct way to get An Audience with the King. Currently, POE 2 trade site and the in-game Currency Exchange both support transactions related to Audience with the King, usually requiring 5-10 POE 2 Divine Orbs.

Farming Tips

As you know, An Audience with the King only appears by farming Rituals, so to increase its chances of appearing, you need to turn as many normal map nodes into Rituals as possible, and for this you need to use Ritual Precursor Tablets.

These tablets are a variation of normal Precursor Tablets, and are primarily dropped by killing monsters in Ritual Altars. Placing them in a cleared Tower will convert map nodes. It is worth noting that you can add modifiers to these tablets to increase conversion efficiency, such as:

• Deferring Favours at Ritual Altars in your maps consumes tribute reduced 10–15%
• Ritual Altars in your maps allow re-rolling Favours an additional time
• Re-rolling Favours at Ritual Altars in your maps consumes tribute reduced 10–15%

Use Or Sell?

If you have enough confidence in your character’s strength and the gear is strong enough, it is recommended that you use An Audience with the King to unlock The King in the Mists and fight it, so that you will have the opportunity to obtain a large amount of currency and precious Ingenuity Utility Belt and From Nothing Diamond.

On the contrary, if your current level cannot cope with this difficult boss, it is recommended that you sell An Audience with the King on the market to accumulate orbs to help your character upgrade quickly, otherwise it will only waste An Audience with the King in your inventory.

The above is what we provide you with the role and acquisition method of An Audience with the King in Path of Exile 2. Thank you for reading.

It’s been nearly three months since the initial release of POE 2’s early access, which should be enough time for you to find a good skill combination or even the best builds for your character’s chosen class for early stage development. But as the game progresses, more content is gradually added and balanced, and you need to rearrange your class skills - unlike most ARPGs, POE 2’s skills are realized through skill gems, which are more free to choose.

Among the 6 classes in early access, Warrior is a strength-based melee class that excels in melee combat with large weapons. Although it is a bit difficult to get started, it is very suitable for tank-like face-to-face combat with enemies. However, if you feel that you are hindered when playing Warrior recently, it means that you should adjust your Warrior skill selection in time according to the changes in POE 2. Based on this, we will recommend the top 8 Warrior skill gems for you from high to low.

1. Earthshatter

This gem doesn’t do a lot of damage on its own, but the earth spikes it creates can be detonated by other heavy attacks, creating a chain of attacks. This is actually thanks to the support gem Upheaval, which creates more cracks by reducing the base damage of the skill, allowing you to detonate more spikes at the same time for another heavy attack.

Upheaval can currently only be obtained by killing higher-level enemies and bosses. Although the process may be a bit difficult, you can not only become stronger with this gem but also earn POE 2 Currency at the same time, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.

2. Rolling Slam

Although this skill is very basic, its role cannot be ignored. It will stun and repel the enemy through the initial heavy attack, and then continue to output higher damage of heavy attacks, and the attack direction can be controlled by you at will.

More importantly, before you get Leap Slam in Path of Exile 2, Rolling Slam can enhance your mobility. In addition, the accumulated stun caused by this skill can not only stun the enemy but also produce a heavy stun shock wave that can cause AOE damage by combining with Boneshatter.

3. Sunder

As a powerful melee slam skill, Sunder mainly creates rolling cracks and continuously hits the area, causing relatively high AOE damage to the enemy while moving. Sometimes it can also cause some enemies hit by the cracks to cause damage to other nearby enemies by releasing shock waves.

However, you need to pay attention that since the cracks will roll, you will not get “rewards” immediately after outputting this skill. It takes a while to hit distant enemies, which also means that it is not suitable for dealing with long-range enemies that move, but it is still very effective at close range.

4. Boneshatter

Boneshatter is very suitable for helping you become a Warrior who focuses on stuns. It can cause area damage and clear monsters. When the enemy has accumulated enough stun effects from your other Warrior skills, Boneshatter will officially start to work.

When an enemy is hit by Boneshatter, they are severely stunned and send a shockwave to their allies, allowing you to deal 250% of your base damage in a limited area, not only stunning a single target but also spreading the damage to multiple enemies, increasing your efficiency in getting POE 2 Divine Orbs by killing enemies.

5. Hammer Of The Gods

This skill can be considered one of Warrior’s most powerful moves. Although the 24-second cooldown time may make you worry about whether it is reliable, the huge 1441% base damage multiplier can completely dispel your concerns!

When this skill is activated, a huge hammer will appear above the target area, and the hammer will fall down for a short period to deal huge AOE damage to enemies. However, due to the long activation delay, enemies may be able to move out of the target area, so you must grasp the timing of using this skill.

6. Herald Of Ash

After you defeat King in the Mists in Act I, you gain at least 30 spirit points, which you can use to activate Warrior’s persistent buffs, and the most helpful of these is Herald Of Ash - it can even help you create a Warrior build centered around fire damage.

If an enemy takes extra damage equal to at least 20% of their maximum health when hit, Herald Of Ash can deal fire damage to them in an area that ignites them. As you know, Warriors are better at dealing high damage to a single target, so this skill can help you spread damage and elemental diseases.

7. Volcanic Fissure

As another combo slam skill, Volcanic Fissure works similarly to Earthshatter, but it focuses more on fire damage. During combat, this skill will create a winding crack in the ground, dealing fire damage to enemies in range as it moves. During the entire skill, these cracks will stay on the ground for 12 seconds. If you slam again, aftershocks will occur, which will spread to other connected cracks, causing regional damage that can form a chain reaction.

8. Leap Slam

This is a type of skill that most ARPG classes similar to POE 2 Warrior may have. Its use is as simple as you think. Jump to the target area and slam the ground to cause area damage and repel enemies. However, damage output is not the main function of Leap Slam, extra mobility is its real strength.

After understanding the above 8 skill gems, are you eager to enter the game to adjust your Warrior character? Then act quickly!

As a complex and difficult ARPG, POE 2 will require a lot from you, so if you want to make it through the endgame, you need to farm XP as quickly as possible to make your character strong enough in time.

To do this, you need to know not only how to gain some experience points while resting during the game, but also the best places and ways to clear the map at relevant levels - you can even use this method to collect more POE 2 Currency and special loot!

The best maps for you to collect XP or other items at the moment are mainly those with easy-to-navigate layouts, high monster density, and even better if there is a unique small boss that is easy to approach. Based on this, we will recommend 8 best XP farming locations for you.

1. Act 1 Maps-Hunting Grounds & Ogham Village

Although Act 1 may be the easiest part of the entire POE 2, because of the high difficulty of the game itself, if you are not level enough and your gear is not powerful enough, you may still encounter a lot of obstacles when encountering Boss Geonor and transitioning from Act 1 to Act 2. If you do encounter such a dilemma, it is recommended to go to Ogham Village immediately to farm XP for the end of Act 1.

Although it looks messy here, the map navigation is relatively clear, and Executioner battle here can provide XP and possible POE 2 Divine Orbs drops. If you have the energy to spare, you can try to kill Crowbell in Hunting Grounds at least once to get two additional passive skill points to further enhance your character.

2. Act 2 Maps-Keth & Lost City

After entering Act 2, the map clearing difficulty gradually increases, and you will encounter some more difficult mob enemies in several maps. To do this, you need to get more XP and some reliable defensive skills before you can move on.

Based on this, you first consider choosing Keth as your first Act 2 farming map, because the optional boss Kabala the Constrictor Queen is relatively easy to defeat. In addition, Keth also comes with an optional map Lost City, which contains Keth’s ninth treasure optional boss, which can provide you with a lot of XP.

3. Act 3 Maps-Jungle Ruins & Utzaal

Entering Act 3 means that you are not far from the endgame, so the overall challenge difficulty will rise to a level. Based on this, Jungle Ruins is a good place to prepare before the start of this act. The optional boss Mighty Silverfist, as well as several other small bosses and elite enemies can provide you with a lot of XP.

As for Utzaal, it is actually the last large map you need to clear before encountering the final boss. If you can complete the battle with Viper Napuatzi in it fairly easily, this map is a good place for you to gain XP because of the large open area and high monster density.

4. Trial Of Chaos

Not only are trials a great place to earn passive points for your Ascendancy subclasses, they also allow you to rerun them to earn XP and other loot. If you’re primarily looking to farm XP, Trial of Chaos is a better choice than Trial of the Sekhemas, since the latter prioritizes avoiding damage, which somewhat hinders combat and is not conducive to earning XP. Also, the good news is that starting from Act 3, you can rerun Trial of Chaos at any time.

5. Endgame Maps

By the time you reach the endgame of Path of Exile 2, you may still need to grind quite a bit to continue to perfect your character, and in fact this is one of the purposes of POE 2’s progression curve setting - to allow you to focus on improving your character after completing builds and before entering higher-level maps. Based on this, the early endgame maps provide you with this opportunity.

While doing basic farming, you can also use currency to upgrade Waystones with magic and rare modifiers, allowing these endgame maps to spawn more monsters or loot. The best modifiers are prefixes, such as increasing monster density or increasing elite enemies by 20%, giving you the opportunity to earn more XP per map.

6. Farming Expeditions

Once you enter the endgame, you will encounter a variety of different endgame events that will give you different loot. Of these events, it is recommended that you complete Expeditions on the map first, and to do this you must first find the NPC Dannig, as only he can give you access to Expeditions.

Expeditions will give you some big dig points where you can place 20 explosives to link Remnants and Runic monsters together, killing large groups of enemies at once and getting more XP and loot.

7. Farming Breaches

As one of the popular endgame farming events, the swarms of monsters spawned in Breaches can also bring you a lot of XP, as well as a lot of currency and loot. And just like farming endgame maps, you can also increase the monster density in Breaches through Waystone modifier to increase the XP you can get.

8. Farming Simulacrums

Similar to Breaches and Expeditions, Simulacrums are another endgame activity that allows you to work for XP, with waves of enemies spawning and you can earn a lot of XP by clearing them.

However, it should be noted that Simulacrums farming tends to focus more on generating Simulacrum Splinters and other loot for you rather than XP, so it may be more suitable for you to use to help you improve your builds.

These are the 8 best locations for XP farming in Path of Exile 2 at the moment. If you are leveling up and urgently need a lot of XP, then make sure to go to these locations first. Have fun!
