So what classes are the best for you?

[Chiryuu]

I'm thinking - monk (Acolyte of Chayula) or Ranger (Pathfinder).

What about you guys?

All those classes / Ascendencies look awesome to be fair.
It´s such a hard choice tbh, everyday i come up with new ideas for my build and fantasy...

I´m so ready for it.
I just finished watching the Q and A session from the reveal trailer and Mark was like
" In the trailer there was this shadow guy doing his thing, I WANT TO BE THAT!"

And he is actually already planning to implement that ascendencie somehow in the future.

Aren´t those guys at GGG just crazy cool man. I love it.

I really wanted to play Druid tbh, but :(.

All . First witch summoner , super hyped to play that. I love summoner in D2 and Poe
With the permanent minions/revive on death and the specter changes(it was a pain to resummon them), I can't wait to try them.
Mercenary Gemling Legionnaire looks good as a summoner too

Other than that I'm a big mage/sorc fan , so I will probably play that as my second build
I'm not big into melee , but with the more souls like bosses and how melee looks I will try that too, I only play melee in souls/souls like

Neither of the Witch ascendancies really look built for summoners tbh. Yes, the Infernalist does have a dog, but the demon transformation un-equips your weapon, so if your minion skill is tied to that, you're going to lose it when you transform.

Since PoE 2 features a vast skill tree and various playstyle options, there's really no "best" class overall, it's about how you enjoy playing! Each class will have its strengths and weaknesses, and your personal preferences and the build you choose will shape your experience.

Jonathan in a recent stream with I believe DM and Ghazzy, stated he was going to look into that suggesting he didn't like that at all, because one of the points of Infernalist is Minions and Demon Form should work in conjunction with that. I'm guessing it's "fixed" for EA release.

Also it didn't unsummon all minions technically. What it was/is doing was unequipping the Sceptre off hand (with tons of spirit on it), thus despawning some/most minions when entering Demon Form.

Actually the interesting thing there was that I think he said the priority of despawns is indirectly related to order of persistent skill gems in your Gem loadout in the next question, which the Demon Form issue previewed kind of and Jon used that as an example lol.

usually i go with necro/minions in any game but this time its probably gemling legionnaire
gives me strong demon hunter vibes from diablo 3
i want a rapid shotgun build again so bad
still torn tho, so i might end up picking witch as a starter anyway lol

Mercenary > Monk > Witch > Warrior > Sorceress > Ranger
I don't know about the Ascendance yet.

[Singrave]

Witch>Merc>Sorc>Monk>Ranger
I don't play "warriors" in RPGs.

[Drake]

Crossbow infernalist witch. Minion/chaos spell chayula monk.
Shield melee legionnaire (too bad there is no swords yet to make a real centurion)

[Haziza]

As a high testosterone man, I will obviously play a warrior.

[Euphytose]

Gonna play an Infernalist, my friend will play a Chronomancer!

Apparently Inferno can transform? Is that true?
