Why Is Path Of Exile 2: Dawn Of The Hunt So Exciting?
After so many trailers, Path of Exile 2: Dawn of the Hunt is finally coming online. I have to say that this update is more significant than the usual updates. It will add a lot of new content. So let's talk about Path of Exile 2: Dawn of the Hunt.
What exciting news! As a long-time fan of Path of Exile 2, the next season update you’ve been waiting for is coming.
Grinding Gear Games has officially announced the name of the season update, Dawn of the Hunt, as well as the official release date for Path of Exile 2 patch 0.2.0. The official release date is April 4, but it will be revealed live on March 27.
New Content
Why is 0.2.0 different from many other patches released before it? Since the release of Path of Exile 2 in Early Access, there have been many patches released. But they are so small, mainly balance fixes and small updates.
But 0.2.0 will bring a lot of new content, including new end-game content, new weapons, new Ascendancy classes, and many new items. And if nothing unexpected happens, you will lose a lot of Path Of Exile 2 Currency to get all this new stuff. It’s a necessary sacrifice.
In addition, if you have been paying attention to its series of trailers in the past month, you may have seen previews of some new unique items, such as Bringer of Rain Helmet and Hammer of Faith two handed weapons. The appearance of these new weapons is bound to create more possibilities for your build, and I guess you can't wait to get them.
However, like before, the drop rate of these unique items may still be very small, and sometimes you may need to kill the most difficult Uber bosses to find them. So if you want to find them as soon as possible after the update, you must be prepared to optimize your equipment, especially by consuming POE 2 Exalted Orbs to re-roll the cooldown recovery on the equipment and modifiers such as mana cost are crucial.
In addition, previews of new auxiliary gems and changes to Passive Skill Tree system have also been released. We also saw the artwork of one of the new Ascendancies, although we don’t know its name at present. What’s more worth mentioning is that a more convenient function has appeared. POE 2 revealed a function that can save different weapon sets to switch between them more easily.
Developer Live
There’s also good news. Grinding Gear Games will be broadcasting live at 3 pm EST on March 27, revealing all the contents of the major update POE 2 0.2.0.
If you don’t have time to watch the live broadcast, it’s possible to watch the replay on Path of Exile Twitch channel. And it will be released on PC and consoles at 3 pm EST on April 4.
Keeping Mystery
You may not know much from the trailer of Path of Exile 2: Dawn of the Hunt, because it retains some mystery and doesn’t reveal much information, but you can extract an important clue from the trailer.
The trailer shows someone sneaking in the woods, probably hunting. And the name of this update is called Dawn of the Hunt, from which we can boldly speculate that the new Ascendancy class may be Druid and Huntress.
Just the trailer can show how important this update is. I dare not imagine how exciting the content of the official release will be. Looking forward to the arrival of the next update.
