Is there any PvP in this game or is it all PvE?

It exists but lets just say, that its not a real priority for the devs. I am not really that experienced with pvp, though - only did it to level up the master.

You can PvP in this game, although it's not really balanced around that (there is some PvP scaling of certain skills) and PoE is for the very most part PvE. The random nature of gear and lack of balance lead to very few players actually playing it, so queue times can be quite long.

Some PvP modes require you to organize something yourself to get enough people to queue up to get a 3v3 match, that says a lot about participation numbers.

I've visited it for the laughs from time to time (well, for the masters daily, really) and it's mostly getting killed from offscreen or running into invisible traps/mines and other mechanics you might find unfair. And of course the torture builds that try to let you suffer through slowing you to a crawl. That or using such techniques yourself.

There isn't any kind of profit for PVP, I mean Leo ( the guy that get levelup while more you PVP) hideout isn't worth, he doesn't even sell more than 8 decoration fulll unlocked, his currency trade discount is trash, his craft modes sucks.

You're not going to encounter random PvP situations. You can challenge to duels, but it has no real value. I may be wrong but it doesn't raise experience or anything.

Leo has some extremely important mods for certain builds.

- 15 to 30% inc damage over time. That is a great mod to craft for many builds.

- 10 to 15% reduced enemy block chance. This is a must have on a Hall of Grandmasters farming build. Otherwise good luck killing the max block/spell block characters. Same applies in PvP vs block builds.

Especially if you do not read in hardcore mode...
