MTX transferred to PoE 2 ?

Could this be one of the biggest lies of Poe history? You decide!

Would be so disappointing if a lot of supporter pack MTX's aren't carrying over :S

Doesn't seem like it since PoE2 is now separate from PoE1 and might not feature all the content from PoE1.

Now that POE1 & 2 are different games.... will MTX transfer?

I should probably stop buying MTX until there's a clear answer on this.


Yes, they said at Exilecon that it will transfer. Anything you bought in PoE1 will go to PoE2 as long as it exists, same goes for buying something in PoE2 to PoE1.

So for example, your armor MTX will be going, but if they for some reason remove Bane from PoE2 and you have Bane MTX, well, that MTX won't transfer.


So what you're saying is... all armor and pets and stuff will likely transfer, BUT GGG has the opportunity to not port over a single skill of the same name to POE2 (now that they are different games), thus removing 100% of my MTX purchased for skills?

Think I'll just hold off on purchasing more MTX or packages until POE2, just seems too easy to walk back.

I use Bane as an example because during Exilecon, the Bane icon had a different name. I have no idea if Bane is in PoE2 or not, I was just using it as an example to convey how they said MTX would transfer over.

That said, you would not lose that MTX, because you would still have it in PoE1.

Things that can transfer, will. If one does not exist in the other game it won't transfer(such as buying some bear form MTX in PoE 2, there is no such thing as bear form in PoE1, so that will not transfer).

Makes sense... just feels very ... bait and switchy.

Everything you buy in POE1 transfers to POE2, because it's the same game (spent ~$100 afterwards) is a far stretch from "well all new skills, so buy new MTX to not have strobe lights in dark rooms".

Maybe I'm just still sulking from being different games, might be a minority here, but I'm not a fan of it.
Financially, it would be ridiculous for them to do this, I doubt this happens at all.

It would defeat the purpose of making poe2 to begin with.
