Atlas is shared across account

[hugost]

so i have an 81 sorc had a few deaths lost xp and decided make a monk while things got patched
i was thinking when i get to maps i will setup my atlas different to see how it compares to my other one.
imagine my surprise when i look at altas and its shared with my other character. i mean come on GGG i want to test different setups, i could have one toon for waystone drops the other juicing other things.

i know you can respec but that isnt what i was trying to do. is it just me or is this kind of stupid and yet another QoL feature that is missing.
atleast give us an option to share the points or have them separate from other characters

They only had like 6 months to work on the endgame system ^^

There is a lot of QoL missing and its probably not high prirority atm but we will see ^^

Why wouldnt it be shared between your characters?
It would make no sense that with a new character within the same league you have start over from the starting location.

As for the atlas points, in PoE1 you get 3 sets that you can freely swap between, but there you have 120+ points to spend in the atlas tree alone so it kinda makes sense while here you got 30 and half the nodes are totally useless, so pretty much there is only one atlas tree you can make anyway.

As for the "league specific tree" again, most of them are kinda useless, so you have 1 build for those, simply because they are in very bad state balance wise.

Like for delirium, you need 4 points to boost your splinter scale to the moon and everything else is meaningless.

Expedition is worthless, literally the only thing that matters there if you get a logbook from map or not because currency sux, vendor craft sux even more and the logbook is also useless if you dont have the boss on it.

Ritual is the same, it is better to hunt for an audience and once you get it, sell it and that is almost enough to pay for a carry to do all 8 points for you, which will increase the chance to get more audiences that you can sell for money.

Breach was the only one that you could farm effectively, but since everyone is farming breach, it is kinda worthless breach drop wise, but still good because the insane amount of mobs you get which will give you a lot of currency and item drops.

Boss tree is also useless, the only real good node is the +1 map level with irradiation.

Arbiter is horrible, the only reason you want to run it is to practice the boss, all his drops are worthless so every attempt is just pure moneysink so unless you really want to practice the fight no reason to run it at all and the tree doesnt help at all with that.

PoE always had a shared endgame. I see no reason why they should change that. For example PoE1 introduced Loadouts so you had 3 different Atlas Passive skill trees to choose from. But since PoE2 is still early in development those probably did not yet make it into PoE2. And this was just about the skill points, not about the actual Atlas map. But I guess if you want to see a different Atlas, each league has their own shared Atlas, so you have different ones in Hardcore or SSF or Hardcore SSF.

i never played POE1 thanks for the info.
maybe they make it so you can have different setups later, i just found it weird. Hell i thought i would get a new atlas aswell as mine i basically went in a circle at first now i doing the tower thing.
So what happens if as i have read in some posts in the official forums you brick your atlas?
new account?

theres no point in having 2 different atlas setups between characters, especially when you can freely change it whenever you want.

A toggle at char creation would be nice just to experience other seeds/have characters seperate from your others. I don't see any reason why that would be bad.

[tolshortte]

so the reasoning is:

always been this way in that other game that this game is supposed to be different than
cuz early access

hahaha

Sure you are so open minded. With everyone who dissagrees being a fanboy.
And yes. My feelings.
I always get them hurt by random people on the internet. What cross to bear.

Mhm i can still critize but like a game. I think some things need improvement.
But again, i can see why this seems impossible for someone like you :3

for what it's worth, you can't brick your atlas. That's not how it works.
