All streamers play SENTINEL.

[Singrave]

Move along, nothing to see here.

WTF?

[NotxEevee]

Surprise surprise, the class that has seen the most changes is being played the most...

[Sexxy]

Na .. its not the class with the most changes ... its the class with the most busted abilities, multipliers and damage. There is a difference rofl. Cope.

[EntityO]

Aaron at Actionrpg is playing Cocaine bear summon, Raxx is playing Heartseeker Rogue. I agree in general though, most are playing Sentinel

You do realize it's mostly busted because Sentinel as a whole got massively reworked, right?
Arguing against the patch notes is...interesting to say the least.

I'll check it out later, I'm enjoying heartseeker right now. :)

[Rutgrr]

It got a rework so naturally everyone is gravitating toward it.

[Mortiaris]

Most busted is still warlock, but sentiel is early faceroll plus rework, streamers are hungry for brainless clear so they play it, poe 2 was to hard for most of them.

Having so much fun with my Fire Whirl Wind Paladin. Would be better tho if i didn't craft my weapon into a half the damage unique LOL Oh well new to the game and I'm sure i will stuff something else up.

PoE2 isn't hard, i raided in mythic raids in WoW now that crap was hard. PoE2 is hard due to skills doing low damage and loot that supports your build being very hard to come by. Then add in the fact that crafting is really just gambling and it's why it "seems hard"

Like others said, streamers play what's going to get watched. And what's going to get watched is what got updated. Especially with games like this that are played for years and thousands of hours.
The influencer sphere is not a good indicator of anything with gaming. It just puts a microphone to the vocal minority of gamers and it sounds like they're speaking or playing for all of us, but they aren't, they're trying to push a narrative or game. They're either pushing it into the light or off a cliff.

Which subclass are they playing? I would assume there is infact a difference from void knight to paladin or forge guard, given he gets the unlock at the end to whield a 2 handed and a shield.

No, Sentinel was just as strong in the last patch. The 'rework' is a bit overstated, they just buffed the underperforming skills on the second strongest class (after Falconer).

[Kalil]

I'm not sure about strongest, but I feel like, as someone who can /only/ play simple classes, sentinel is one of the simplest classes to play, with a lot of options for autocasting and 1- or 2-button builds.

I love the idea of a lot of mage builds, but lack the ability to effectively use the class.

True. Haven't seen a single one of them playing forge guard. None of the "top" viewer streamers anyway.

No mythic wow is not hard its a scripted dance.
