What Is Elon Musk's Real Game Level In Path Of Exile 2?
Have you heard that Elon Musk is putting on a show in POE 2? It all started with his poor performance in the previous game live broadcast. Let's see what's going on.
As a novice player of Path of Exile 2, you may not know about a speechless incident that happened before. Billionaire Elon Musk boasted that he was at the top of the charts of popular games such as POE 2 and D4, but the witty players found out.
As we all know, Elon Musk is the richest man in the world. He has always been the focus of people’s attention. Such a person with his own popularity started a game live broadcast, and everyone watched his live broadcast out of curiosity. However, after watching the live broadcast, it was found that he did not seem to have the ability to obtain a high level of the game.
Live Broadcast
At first, Musk broadcast Path of Exile 2 for an hour and a half, and the hardcore character he used, named Percy_Verence, was level 95. At that time, everyone still felt quite respectful of him. Because in POE 2, it is very remarkable to survive to such a high level in the hardcore league.
As a novice player, you may not know much about the game mechanics. Let me briefly introduce it. In the hardcore league, the difficulty will increase as the game progresses. It’s already impressive for a player to reach level 80, let alone level 95.
What’s even more impressive is that the character survived without dying once. Generally speaking, players who rank at the top of the hardcore leaderboard have mastered skilled game skills and wise builds matching skills. But disappointingly, Musk does not have these abilities.
When we watched Musk’s live broadcast, we didn’t find any excellent game operation from him. Instead, we found some flaws in his game operation. This is why we suspect that Musk is just putting on a show.
Like A Rookie
During the live broadcast, we found that Musk seemed to be unfamiliar with the basic mechanics of the game like a rookie. He repeatedly tried to enter those inaccessible map nodes and didn’t notice that his mana was empty for a long time.
What’s more surprising is that he neglected to collect valuable Path Of Exile 2 Currency. We all know that collecting currency is crucial to this game. We don’t know why he made such a low-level mistake.
At one point, he picked up low-level keystones that were irrelevant to his character’s level, instead of more valuable currency items like POE 2 Divine Orb. And he also called his perfectly good set of gear low-level gear. All of this shows that his superb gaming skills are fake.
Percy_Verence Died
However, at around 8 am EST on Friday, January 10, 2025, Musk’s in-game character Percy_Verence died at level 97. For your better understanding, let me popularize it for you. In POE 2, hardcore characters can only last until the first death, and then they will be kicked into the standard character pool.
In addition, if these hardcore characters get a ranking of 1000 and above on the global hardcore leaderboard, the leaderboard will track the total experience these hardcore characters have gained. And once they die, it will be announced in the game to all players. Percy_Verence happened to be at level 7 on the global hardcore leaderboard.
What’s more worth mentioning is that within three days after Percy_Verence’s death, it had dropped from level 7 to level 13. Because everyone wants to get a higher ranking on the hardcore leaderboard, the competition is very fierce. Other high-level POE 2 players are competing to surpass each other.
In fact, for experienced POE 2 players with real strength, Musk’s poor performance in the game live broadcast is not convincing, and everyone is questioning the authenticity of his superb game strength. Did he steal other people’s upgraded characters for his own use?
