All 12 Ascendancies for Path of Exile 2 Early Access Unveiled | MMORPG.com
Ahead of its Early Access launch, the Path of Exile 2 team has unveiled all twelve Ascendancies, which are the late-game skill paths for the various classes.
Warbringer sounds good to me. I always like a tanky sword+board class. They're typically slow starters, but become fun at endgame when you can laugh off piles of enemies trying to dent your defenses.
No necromancer witch? :O
Ah, just googled it. Guess they want everyone to be like... a mixed hybrid witch or something instead of any pure minion build.
....honestly I don't think that's a very good idea. At least as long as they make minion bonuses separate from player bonuses on stats and gears, hybrids generally won't work out very well because players will end up too weak in both if they try to hybridize.
EDIT: Apparently some people say the devs said there won't be a necromancer ascendancy while others say the devs said they're just still working on it. Yeesh.
So maybe I'm not reading this correctly but this is the verbiage used on the official forum post announcing the ascendencies:
"At the start of Early Access in Path of Exile 2 each of the 6 Character Classes will have 2 Ascendancy Classes available."
I took "at the start of" to indicate it was probable more would be added later. Now nowhere do they commit to a necro ascendency, so that's still a mystery but it seems to me this isn't the final list for launch.
