If you can't revive in maps then what's the point of coop?

To play the game together? Skills can have a modified effect based on another action that another player can do, so there is potentially a lot of synergy and planning that can go into group play.

They just are choosing so far to not let you revive mid-fight.

Not mid fight, you can't revive at all, even when combat has ended. It makes the whole "Come do a map with me." kind of pointless. People in standard aren't playing hardcore, yet it feels like they are lol.

What would be the point of playing solo if parties could just corpse tank all content?

Fine, then, this better? They die, they go outside of the map and get to use one of the portals to come back. Effectively making it another life.

It would still be 5 more tries than solo players get, making party play even more of a meta.

... And? I see no downside to this, sometimes games exist out there that make co-op much more preferable. I see nothing inherently wrong with that.

That beimg said, making solo players get to have extra lives would be nice to have.

in poe1 is was +50% quant per extra person. so a party of 6 would get +250% quant
im sure poe2 is similar.

mob hp is also +50% per.

Love seeing people shout "Synergy!"...

In the few brief patches they released prior to f'ing off on a month long vacation they literally nerfed synergy for some skills including Lightning Rods no longer can be activated by Salvo skill that is not your own and some change to Gas Grenades. It is clear synergy is not what they will be supporting. Once they are back, expect a bunch of other "overperforming" synergies to be removed.

It wouldn't be out of place in an MMORPG. Path of Exile has never really been oriented to "force" regular players to party play and I wouldn't expect it to change with PoE2.

Currency shards should be instanced and autocollected the same as gold.

Playing solo means you have a 100% chance of picking up a div off the floor before somebody else.
