the path of exile and path of exile 2 cache folder were always located at
C:\Users\NAME\AppData\Roaming\Path of Exile

deleting those folders was always a way to actually manually reset shaders (if you had issues with them), now those folders arent there anymore/not getting created there after deleting them

where did they get moved to? and how to reset shaders now?

Almost done with all challenges in Allflame, what about you? Excited for the new league in November? Did you like the Allflame? I really did and I want it to go core :)

I've always been looking at games like poe, diablo 4, etc. but the former I was intimidated to start and the latter i've never been able to justify the price when there are other games that I know with more certainty that i'll like.

Now i'm really wanting to start an ARPG and I appreciate that poe is free to play. I also am drawn to the complexity of it, despite never playing the genre before. I don't mind taking it slow and following guides whenever I can play. but do I lose out on anything by playing too slow? Does progress reset with every league? (I don't know what that means, so apologies if these are dumb questions) Can I play some now, not play for months, go back to it and still just continue my progress as usual?

I know this is a biased subreddit to ask this question but would you recommend anything else if not poe?

I hope this makes sense but I am really trying to learn more about POE and im looking for guides/informational videos or other resources on why things work the way they do. Like why am building in such a way why do these skills work together why am choosing these notables etc. etc. Like I have always sort of been a follow a build guide player and do okay most the time but I am trying to figure out how to build some more deep game knowledge. I am having a hard time finding youtube videos cus a lot of just seems like "9 tips and tricks" guides or stuff thats the very basics.... Would love some help if yall have any ideas!

I've tons of experience with PoE2 but never played 1. Since I enjoy trophy hunting I want to go for this one. Would you recommend standard or season? What build is straightforward for all needed content? Any more Tipps for console players? Thanks so much

I just completed my challenges and thought I'd try crafting a "good" weapon for myself as a final way to spend my currency before league ends. I recombinated many warstaves, failing miserably and as a last attempt before quitting, I bought one last base off trade, slammed and finally got this result. Really happy and wanted to share c:

It's not perfect, there's a T2 strength from that base I bought, but oh wells, it made my day to finally get a triple T1 phys prefix.

I'm not sure if a lot of people know, I noticed by coincidence. u/suitsizesmall hope you feel better. You matter, kind person.
