Wasnt there a pvp area you could enter in.. I think act 3 hub? I only went in it once and saw two people battling and left. Personally not into pvp, but I know it's a popular feature for others.

I remember they added a battle royale mode for a bit in PoE1. From what I remember it was incredibly imbalanced, but people seemed to have fun with it for the brief period it was around.

That is mean this is PVE game nothing about PvP.

[Rafein]

Not really. Just one area where barely anyone ever goes into.

This is funny. Pvp in path of exile? Pretty much non-existant.

Probably, but nobody will use it anyway. Not the game for it. You will be alone there.

You can laugh at PoE1's pvp mode.
But it might actually get traction in PoE2 with the more skill based playstyle.

Cutthroat league going core.

Yeah the "more skill based playstyle" went from 0.1% skill based to 0.2% skill based

This is a stats based game. if you have better gear and better build, you will win 100% of the time against your opponent.

PVP will never be anything more than a meme. Even if PVP had pre determined stats and gear, it would all be about the build, skill expression would be non existent.

Pvp is hilariously broken in PoE 1 so it should only be played for lols. You can legit make builds that crash your opponent's PC or give them an epilepsy test, or just instantly kill them with an auto-targeting instant spell like Arc. There is too much customization for balanced pvp.

I doubt PoE 2 will have extensive PVP features beyond a simple duel challenge.
