Multiplayer has some issues around resurrecting party members
Me and a friend have been playing POE2 together, and there are some serious issues with how it works, mostly around the resurrecting mechanic.
When you die, you have to wait for someone in your party to resurrect you, or your entire party to die.
This doesn't just affect boss fights, which I can see the reason behind, but also in the general world.
That is really odd that in a massive area, you are forced to stay together, as if you die, 1 of your party have to come to you to rez you.
If you are together, you have to wait for them to clear the area before you can be rezed.
It just seems like a really odd way to implement this, and is certainly not fun for the person that died, or the person that needs to rez.
And then there is the boss fights that basically make it impossible to rez anyone at any point in any of the fights...at least with 2 players. Even pets don't take agro, so even pet builds have no chance.
In the boss fights, it should be possible, and risky, to rez someone. I personally like how D4 have implemented it, where only large attacks interrupt, and previous progress is remembered. Either of those would probably solve the issue, and both would be great (in my opinion)
