The LARGEST Path of Exile 2 expansion of all-time is about to hit and we're beyond excited to play! My brother and I take a seat to discuss everything related to PoE 2 0.5 and how our predictions panned out, from the 100% new endgame Atlas and what might hit the Vaal Temple, to GGG's design decisions with unique items and overall game balance leading up to the next PoE 2 league start.

The next Path of Exile 2 expansion, 0.5: Return of the Ancients hits soon. The Brothers in Exile are back to breakdown the newest PoE 2 teasers, discuss the delay of 0.5 in a measured manner, and create our very own bingo board for this gigantic patch. Some of our predictions seriously include Path of Exile 2's act 5, new pinnacle bosses, reworks to existing league mechanics, and brand new skills for old weapons. Drop your predictions below and make sure you let us know what the stakes for actual bingos should be!

PoE 2's endgame is about to entirely change, but before it does in patch 0.5, we break down its current state: the biggest problems in Path of Exile 2's current Atlas System, the extreme amount of punishment, what we enjoy about the varied systems like Abyss, Breach, and the Temple, and where other mechanics like Expedition or Ritual could be improved. Enjoy this latest episode of our weekly Path of Exile 2 podcast, Brothers in Exile!

How the heck is Path of Exile 2's 0.4 expansion my brother's FAVORITE PoE2 LEAGUE YET? In the second episode of Brothers in Exile, we dive deep into all things Fate of the Vaal and Last of the Druids, from various economic strategies and the Vaal Temple fiasco, to his obsession with cast on crit skills and their design. We hope you seriously enjoy and we appreciate the support!
