  • Path of Exile 2: League Starter Blood Mage Build Guide

    Path of Exile 2's Blood Mage has always been one of the most exciting Ascendancies for Witch players, thanks to its dark spellcasting style that consumes life instead of mana. In the past, however, the subclass had major restrictions. One of the biggest complaints was its dependency on critical hits to generate Remnants, the unique mechanic that recovers and overflows life to fuel more spellcasting. That system forced players into crit-focused builds and limited creativity. …

  • Path of Exile 2's 0.3.0 League: 7 Things That Might Get Nerfed

    Path of Exile 2's patch 0.2.0 brought some of the biggest nerfs players have ever seen. The sweeping balance changes left players with just a handful of viable League starters and endgame builds, which by default became the meta in Dawn of the Hunt.   Game Director Jonathan Rogers hinted that 0.3.0's focus will be on improving underpowered Skill Gems and passives - but with the sheer strength of certain items, skills, and ascendancies right now, some nerfs seem almost inevit…
