Review The Path of Exile 2 Mastery Guide 2024
Okay, so I've just finished reading "The Path of Exile 2 Mastery Guide 2024," and honestly, my feelings are a bit mixed. The marketing certainly promises a lot – a complete walkthrough, secret strategies, endgame domination – the whole shebang. And in some ways, it delivers on that promise, at least partially. The book does give a good, broad overview of Path of Exile's mechanics, which is incredibly helpful for newcomers. I particularly appreciated the explanations of some of the game’s less-obvious systems; things that might trip up a new player but are explained clearly enough here. It's like having a friendly mentor guiding you through the initial stages, breaking down complex concepts into digestible chunks. Think of it as a helpful companion, not a magic bullet to instant mastery.
However, my biggest concern, and the reason my overall impression is somewhat lukewarm, is the significant overlap with Path of Exile 1. The description strongly implies it's tailored to PoE 2, but a large portion of the content felt like a rehash of the first game's systems. While some core mechanics naturally carry over, I found myself wondering how much truly new information was specific to the sequel. There were references to characters and items that, while possibly analogous, aren't directly present in the way described within PoE 2. It leaves me feeling a little misled by the title. I wouldn't be surprised if a significant portion of this book was generated using AI and then repurposed for PoE2; there's a certain lack of cohesiveness that points in that direction. The writing style, while accessible, also feels a bit generic and lacks the depth of a truly insightful guide written by someone who intimately understands the nuances of the game.
Despite the issues, I do think it serves a purpose. If you're brand new to the Path of Exile universe and are looking for a general understanding of the gameplay loop, the crafting system, or the general progression, then this book might be useful for you. It provides a reasonable foundation. However, if you're looking for truly cutting-edge, exclusive strategies specifically for Path of Exile 2, or deep dives into the endgame content of the sequel, you'll likely find yourself wanting more. This guide definitely leans more towards a beginner's overview of the type of game PoE is rather than a detailed, up-to-the-minute guide to mastering PoE 2. It might be worth your while to check out some reviews and see sample chapters before committing to a purchase, especially given the potential for it to feel less like a dedicated guide to PoE 2 and more like a generalized introduction to the broader Path of Exile universe. Perhaps a more accurate title would have been "A Beginner's Guide to the Path of Exile Universe." The current title, sadly, is a bit of a misnomer.
