Uber Boss in mapping are a joke/unrewarding
I have around 1700 hours in playing POE 2 :
![]() There is a really big problem with map bosses, even the uber ones. First of all they are not very difficult. But that's not the biggest problem here. The real problem is that they literally NEVER drop anything good. Some rare monster are harder. All my good drops comes from rare mobs, especially from abysses. I swear to god, please check my account and locate a single divine or good currency drop from a map bosses in the past 1700 hours I've been playing. You will find exactly ZERO of that. So now, why is it that way? Why is it that the "harder" content from a map, is unrewarding? Uber bosses feel a little bit more difficult than before, but the rewards are still absolute nothingess. You changed the objective for map completion to kill the boss, but the boss dosen't reward you. On the other hand you removed icons from rare mobs, and those are the only thing that rewards the players. Do you see how this can be perceived as sheer trolling by the community? Because that's how I feel about it. EDIT OCTOBER 5TH : Something has changed today. Bosses now drop good stuff. In 6 map boss fights, i got 2 divines raw drop! I guess they do read the forums. Thanks for that change if you did change something. Last edited by Oinkaments#6390 on Oct 5, 2025, 9:48:53 AM Last bumped on Oct 5, 2025, 11:45:35 AM

If we're talking map bosses, yeah they're bad and only good for map sustain.
If we're talking dangerous map bosses, that depends on the map. I've run 4 Jade Isles and found 2 Rakiata's Flow. Easy 50div. If we're talking pinnacles like Olroth or Xesht, I honestly can't say. I know Olroth drops at least one valuable item, and King in the Mists can drop multiple omens which have a chance of being the rare valuable ones. Rare drops, mind you. PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.
Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build! And the winds will cry / and many men will die / and all the waves will bow down / to the Loreley |

" Boss. They can only drop from the boss, far as I know. PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

My last + spell level rune was from a boss so yes they can be rewarding, but its so rsre they drop sth good.
But the same is also the case for most pinnacles. Its really rare you drop sth thats actually good. |

Well well, it appears they do read the forums and make changes on the spot.
Because for the first time since I have been playing this game, I now get divine drops from bosses. I fought 6 map bosses, and 2 dropped a div. Before this day, bosses would drop nothing for me for 1700 hours! |
