Mild disappointment in PoE2 early access class options

[mitchincredible]

I'm kind of upset that these developers also took up Blizzard and other games' desires to eradicate paladins/holy warriors/templars from their ARPG.

They haven't started off with one in EA based on the info on ascendant classes and part of me feels like they're falling into the trend of hating on the archetype.

I really just want to eradicate things with the light.

There's a Monk class right?

Sooner or later we'll get Templar. So its just a priority, not hate.

Not the same! That is the kind of BS Blizzard pulled with their Spiritborn nonsense.

If you're unhappy with any aspect of the EA, you aren't a true fan and aren't needed in the POE2 community. Hard, but true facts, I'm afraid. It needs to be said.

I feel slighted by the deprioritisation whereas other people get to enjoy their milquetoast warrior and Grim Dawn-esque monster hunter dude.

Ahh I get you yeah but as others has said just need a bit of patience for the other classes.

PoE2 focuses on offering diverse, flexible playstyles. While there’s no classic "paladin," classes like Titan and Chronomancer offer similar powerful archetypes. PoE's strength lies in customizing builds through skill trees and ascendancies, so you can still create a light or holy-themed character. The game is evolving, and this may just be the start of more options to come.

I trust in Grinding Gear a hell of a lot more than Activision/Blizzard and EA combined.
Thems NZ boyos are bros for life and have earned their trust.

Im fairly Certain Templar was the least played class (least played spellcaster for sure), while the ascendancies had great customization, the old white-haired religious fanatic is just not a cool power fantasy imo.

Have patience young padawan. You can play OG PoE if you need your Templar fix today. Otherwise hold your emotions at bay.

Meanwhile I been waiting for a Druid as cool as~ or cooler than Diablo 2's and no game has ever delivered since. Sad it's not available yet. But yeah Templar is Paladin.

Are there actualy any real templar builds? I used him only as crit mage, never as some fantasy holy warrior.
