Map pathing, CPU power draw and Trade Site updates.
Hello fellow Exiles, a few things I wanted to put out there for the community. I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions.
Map Pathing: In the end game, you select a linear branch of nodes to progress though. The path of these nodes could use some work. For example, I came across an issue where the pathing of the nodes would stop suddenly. Basically, from where I was on the map, I could not jump across a small body of water to the "other side". However, there was a node from the other side of the body of water that would jump to an island and stop. Why is there not a system where this can be done both ways? Effectively node hopping to cross terrain. CPU power draw: This one concerns me as it should other PC players because the amount of watts Path of Exile 2 is pulling is insane. Im at over 120watts plus and that's with a completely water-cooled system. For reference I have an i9 13900k and for those that know about their issues, I have updated my bios and manually set it to not allow overclocking. It is running at stock settings and still hitting 120watts plus. Please look into this, Grinding Gear Games. Trade Site updates: What I mean by this is when you go to buy something and the system hasn't updated it to take it off the market. I understand this cant happen instantaneously, but I've had instances where I was being auto-replied to that the item was sold because so many people are still asking about it. -Bonus Round- I'd also like to point out the fact that the trade site is over populated with things for 1 or 2 exalts when in reality you wont even get a reply unless you pay 5x the amount or more. Can we add a timed system to the trade site? Maybe you have to go into your stash and reapply your offer, whatever it may be, every 24-48 hours. Old School supporter pack micro-transactions, when are these going to be available in PoE2? I purchased the Divine Supporter Pack back in 2013 and would like to flex my Divine Roa pet and weapon effect. I'm sure other OG's would love this as well. Thanks for reading if you've made it this far. Last edited by Eaten_Back_To_Life#6126 on Jan 23, 2025, 12:32:54 AM Last bumped on Jan 25, 2025, 4:03:05 AM

I also wanted to add the thought of adding an option to pause the game and also open the chat panel. This way you can reply to people when playing solo without sacrificing your standard or hardcore characters status.

Look into CrossDeviceService.exe and how it interacts with systems. It's basically a Windows Service that is trying to keep track of the user when they're switching from devices, but it's collecting A LOT of telemetry data. Now why is there so much processing power being used by the service when POE2 starts? Good question to ask huh.
