[PC / GeForce Now / PoE2 BETA] Triangle (△) Stash Shortcut Not Working with DualSense Controller


Hello GGG Team,

I am reporting a controller input issue affecting Path of Exile 2 (PC version) when played via GeForce Now, using a PlayStation 5 DualSense controller.



🐞 The Bug

The Triangle (△) button — which normally performs the Quick Move to Stash / Quick Move to Inventory function — does not respond at all when interacting with the stash interface.

However:
• △ works perfectly in every other context (inventory navigation, equipping items, interacting with vendors, etc.).
• The issue occurs only in stash management — both in towns and hideouts.

All other buttons and shortcuts function correctly.



💡 Context
• Platform: GeForce Now (PC version of PoE2)
• Controller: PlayStation 5 DualSense
• Steam Input: Tested with both enabled and disabled (no effect).
• Input Mode: Controller (BETA)
• In-game Layout: PlayStation button icons visible (Triangle, Circle, etc.)



🔍 Troubleshooting Performed

I have already:
1. Disabled and re-enabled Steam Input.
2. Toggled “Cursor” and “Grid” stash modes (via L3).
3. Tested long-pressing Triangle (1–2 seconds).
4. Restarted multiple GeForce Now sessions.
5. Verified that the controller works correctly in all other game menus.

None of these resolved the issue — the Triangle shortcut remains completely unresponsive only in the stash interface.



🧠 Analysis

This behavior appears to be specific to PoE2’s stash UI layer when running under cloud streaming environments (GFN).
Since the input is registered correctly elsewhere, this likely indicates:
• The “Quick Move to Stash” action is not receiving the long-press signal,
• or the stash UI’s event handler is not polling the △ input under certain conditions unique to cloud instances.



🙏 Request

Could you please confirm whether this is a known issue in the current PC BETA build, and whether there is a planned fix or workaround for DualSense users on GeForce Now?

Thank you for your time and for continuing to support controller play on PC — the new PoE2 control system is excellent overall, and this seems to be one of the few remaining rough edges.

Kind regards,
