Forever Exiled

It's episode 329! It was a slow week in GGG Land, which means a slow week in Path of Exile Land, but they did announce a Phrecia Event. So, that's cool. This week's convo has lots of theory-crafting attempts in the Last of the Druids/Fate of the Vaal, observations, and, of course, personal opinions. It's always a pleasure to have you around! We wish we could include you in the conversation! Good luck in our private league (or Pharecia) and thanks again for your time!

Welp! There's nothing like a slow week in The Last of the Druids league to spawn lots of good Path of Exile talk between buds! Episode 327 saw GGG put out a big PoE 2 patch, 0.4.0d, that made some nice long-term changes to the game that we'll no doubt take fur granted without a couple of play sessions. We hope you're enjoying your Path of Exile'ing and we look forward to seeing you in are private league coming up! Thanks, as always fur your time each and every week! We love your faces, eh?

It's episode 327! You know what that means? We don't either. But, we played lots of Path of Exile 2 this week, so that's good. We both tested the boundaries of our love/hate relationship with the game, but c'est la vie. Well, actually, it's c'est la beta vie. GGG keeps making the changes they need to to keep their game ticking, and we keep looking for new ways to enjoy ourselves. Have a great week everyone, and thanks for listening!

Happy 2026, everyone! We hope you had a great season and start to your 2026 year! With the holiday season wrapping up, we had more time than expected for respec'ing, levelling, and theory-crafting! So this week we get chatting about GGG's new Djinns in Path of Exile 2, SSF vs. trade, skills and tags, something better about ascending in PoE 2 than in PoE 1(!), and we even get a little snub in on new year resolutions. It's always a pleasure to hang with you! Thanks for giving us your time this week! Love ya!

Merry Christmas, everyone! We hope you had a great day/week no matter how you went about it. Both of us here were blessed to have the time to play a bit of Path of Exile during the holidays and it was great to chat about it. Hopefully, you enjoyed pulling up a chair and joining in to this week's conversation; it's always a pleasure have you around. We hope you have a wonderful new year and new year celebration.

Merry Christmas everyone! We hope you have a marvelous season no matter what your situation is.

Thank you so much for everything that you have given us. We are truly blessed this holiday season as we reflect on how much of your personal time you have given us. Thank you for making this what it is. Please know that you are loved, no matter where you are in the world. Merry Christmas.

Well, the .4 reveal has come and gone! GGG sure surprised us this go around with what will (and won't) be included in the Fate of the Vaal and The Last of the Druids. There's always more than meets the eye with any release, and considering how hard GGG is working on their beta, next week's update will be no exception. We hope you enjoy the upcoming content, and thanks so much for taking time to be with us this week. Love ya!

There's lots to be excited for in Path of Exile 2! We just don't know what it is yet. In one week, we will have all the goodies. Until then, GGG is keeping their cards close to their chest. Whether you are excited for The Last of the Druids or the Fate of the Vaal, PoE's got ya. As always, thank you for your time each and every week. We love ya!

DON'T be judgey. OF COURSE we know what that means...and of course we knew long before the episode started...and of course we didn't learn of the above term while in the process of recording this episode. BUT! If episode 320 taught us anything, it's that GGG has us quite hyped for the Druid in Path of Exile 2's 0.4.0 The Last Druid. Nope! Wait! It's 'The Last OF THE DruidS! We're just 3 weeks away and our questions and hopes are all hype! May the loot be with you.

For episode 319 we find ourselves 3 weeks into Path of Exile 1's 3.27 Keeper of the Flames and 3 weeks away from Path of Exile 2's 0.4.0. Lots of good is happening in PoE 1, and there's still lots to come for PoE 2! We scooch over to Path 1's hype a bit, then we schooch over to Path 2's hype a bit. And while we're on the subject, you can never have too many golems, you know? Or serial killer shows. Thanks for hanging with us this week! It was nice to have you around 🥰 .

Welcome to episode 318! Hopefully you've been enjoying your first week of Path of Exile 1's 3.27 Keepers of the Flame! There's been a ton of patches and considerations in this first week and there's plenty more to come. Loot, and arms, have been a big focus for GGG and we're excited to see where the strong loot takes us from here. Thanks for your listens each week. You're all fantastic!

In episode 317 we discuss the opening day of Path of Exile's 3.27 Keepers of the Flame. We had pretty different experiences, annnnnd we partially forgot that this wasn't After Dark. So hopefully GGG forgives us on that one. And you'll never guess which one of us is in maps, and which one of us is in Act 2. New content is always exciting, especially after it's tweaked, and we're looking forward to seeing where the game goes from here. Thanks for your listens each week! We love ya!

In episode 316 (final answer), we go back on our promises. GGG's newest Path of Exile 1 expansion, 3.27's Keepers of the Flame, has so many QoL improvements, revamped trade, sub ascendancies (Bloodlines), and so much more, that we may, kind of, sort of, possibly, might play more of the original game then we planned. Blast you, GGG! PoE 2 is on hold! Thanks for the great expansion, and thanks, everyone, for your listens each week!

Welp! We're almost finished our 3.26 private league (Path 1) and it's only natural to compare games when you jump from one game to another. So this episode is all about our builds, hardcore deaths, and comparisons between GGG's games. We hope you're enjoying our Path of Exile 1 PL, if you're playing, and the same wishes towards any of your PoE 2 experiences! Thanks, as always, for your support!

This week GGG made some huge changes to Path of Exile 2's 0.3.0 (The Third Edict) endgame. Mapping has turned much more into PoE 1's setup, but with a lot of Path 2 retained. What could be coming out in 0.4 if GGG is willing to bring this out mid-league! Hopefully you enjoy the upcoming changes to the beta, and more importantly, we hope you're having a great week. Thanks, so much, for all the time you give to listen to us each and every week. Love ya!

An interview this week spawned a lot of good subjects and conversation. GGG's Eben interviewed Blair who voices both Tujen and Huck in Path of Exile 1 and 2, and the content they touched on could have us talking for hours. No matter where your opinions are of PoE 1 or 2's gameplay/balance, most of us can agree that the story and voice acting are top notch, though, that's only a smart part of our subject matter. We hope you're having a great time playing 0.3.0 Rise of the Abyssal/The Third Edict (or Borderlands 4), or whatever else you may be playing.

GGG released patch 0.3.0c this week! So, in episode 310, we discuss our gameplay before and after the patch, and the build ideas and progress we've made so far. New content, especially in a beta, comes with it's list of good and bad additions, and the glorious thing about sharing that with people is that sometimes they agree with you, and sometimes they don't! The person writing this, is of course, always right...but don't tell my co-host that. Thanks for all of your support as we reach episode 310! You're amazing! Thank you!
