I don't like Expedition Logbooks

It stinks having to read every single chest with their 4+ mods. It's annoying to keep tabs on all the mods as they stack up.

It takes a long time to set up all the explosions.

It slows down my computer more than anything else in the game.

Sorting through all the loot after the fighting is over takes forever!

Fighting the mobs is very slow and tedious with all the potential mods they can have. But it feels really unsatisfying to avoid many chests for bad mods. Playing recklessly is time consuming, playing smart is time consuming and anti-climactic. So either way it's not satisfying.

Honestly, I wish this mode wasn't even in the game. I started playing PoE1 a bit cuz I love POE2, and I prefer the special stuff in that game like Hirelings or the tower defense mode much more. I assume Expeditions are also in PoE1, but I have no idea why Expeditions were one of the first mechanics to bring over.

Expeditions are kinda bad in PoE2,
First of all increases to AOE size are hit with a square root, because in PoE2 increases to area are literally that "area", not radius or diameter which leads to the area. So the more you increase the area the more useless it becomes.

What am I talking about ? I am talking about the Expedition's node that gives you one explosion and increases the explosion AREA by 150%, which is laughably small in practice.

As for logbooks, some people like them, just sell em, nobody is forcing you to do mechanics you dont like. Personally I only look for "immunity" affixes which are conveniently marked in bright orange, then i beeline for bosses, currency or dungeons in logbooks.

Expedition in PoE1 is also way better because of the level you can customize it to. You can customize it way more with your atlas tree. More explosives, longer chain distance, larger area, and some other goodies. Hopefully GGG adds some of that to the atlas tree in PoE2. Once can hope. I like expedition in PoE1 and 2 either way. :)

Ritual on the other hand, is one of my most disliked areas.

Yeah, I don't like Rituals much, either. I swear every map with Rituals finds a way to squeeze one in a narrow corridor...
