Melee is fucking garbage

Warrior Specifically.

Everything moves like its on crack cocaine in this game except for warrior. He is a plodding, slow mess of a character who is just not fun compared to the other classes late game.

JFC can someone please fix this ? I really dont want to roll a ranged character for the 1000th time because game devs cant figure out how to make melee not suck

I agree with you, look at my long post about melee https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3677081

No. Play the like 2 meta builds with Giant's Blood and Stampede and stop complaining about playing the slowest class with garbage defenses and objectively the GGG-confirmed worst section of the passive tree.

DO YOU NOT REMEMBER POE2 IS WHEN GGG WILL FIX MELEE?

all the + total seconds to attack time skills are bad design, unless its like +0.5 sec. wonder why... oh yeah cuz the skill doesn't take a goddam aztec calendar year to cast which in most cases is an invitation to getting stun spammed by trash mobs. seriously wtf how can ggg be this braindead.

doubling the animation speed for every single melee skill would still make them pretty much dead last lol

I'm convinced this is just a continued inside joke about melee that GGG said they love melee and that they fixed melee. Actually, I'm surprised they didn't announce any nerfs for warriors in the stream. It's probably going to be stealth nerf in the patch somehow.

Id play a monk .

I enjoy what im doing definite off meta.
i dont use Herald of Lighting or Herald of Ice.
I use physical skills.

Im in maps, im not destroying the word but i can see how it could, just a little more tinkering.

Warrior may have issues.
I can't say, but i can offer a monk alternative.
Im a Chalupa Monk
