Early Access Patch Notes - Content Update 0.5.0 — Path of Exile 2: Return of the Ancients - Forum

"It is no longer possible to prevent a room being deleted from the temple. Rooms that must be deleted, but have other connections, will be turned into simple Path rooms. This prevents the "snake" strategy."------God bless GGG. Crazy to say but not nearly enough nerfs tho:) No nerf for twister is crazy Excited like waiting for 3.0 in PoE 1 Last edited by zsirfoka#3193 on May 22, 2026, 4:06:50 AM	Posted by zsirfoka#3193 on May 22, 2026, 3:37:43 AM Quote this Post

" The plus to Level of all Melee Skills modifiers on Two Handed Attack Weapons now has a value of +5 at Tier 1 (previously +7), the lower tiers have also been adjusted. The plus to Level of all Projectile Skills modifiers on Two Handed Attack Weapons now has a value of +5 at Tier 1 (previously +7), the lower tiers have also been adjusted. The plus to Level of all Melee Skills modifiers on One-handed Attack Weapons now has a value of +4 at Tier 1 (previously +5), the lower tiers have also been adjusted. The plus to Level of all Projectile Skills modifiers on One-handed Attack Weapons now has a value of +4 at Tier 1 (previously +5), the lower tiers have also been adjusted. The +2 to level of Projectile Skills modifier on Quivers now has a value of +1. The plus to level all Gems on Attack Weapons can now only roll above level 18. Just remove skill levels from weapons please, they're too strong and nerfing them to +5 does not resolve the problem. +2 should be the absolute maximum if you really want to keep them.
