Elon Musk Suspected of Buying Path of Exile 2 Account

Elon Musk’s live streaming of his Path of Exile 2 game left viewers suspecting the supposed ranked 9th in the world player actually bought his already leveled up Path of Exile 2 account. Not cool, Elon.

On January 7th Musk live streamed his gameplay on X, sporting an account ranked 9th in the entire world, on the game’s hardest mode. You would think that player would be pretty impressive.

But gamers familiar with Path of Exile 2 noted Musk’s apparent unfamiliarity with the core mechanics, methods and items. All things you’d be intimately familiar with had you played hours on end to level up your own account.

Earning Your Way in Gaming

Almost every game account can be bought online. And it’s not just game accounts, it’s game currency and rare items too. Ever watch the movie Wreck it Ralph? They are trying to get a rare video game item for a shady online auction site, but it’s not something that just happens in the cartoon world!

Musk sets a good example of what happens when you buy a leveled-up account– you lose out on learning the basics that get the account there in the first place. Playing games and starting small is part of the fun.

Yes, it can get frustrating, but it’s all part of the learning process.

However, if you’re a billionaire with oodles of money lying around and no time to waste, it probably seems like a good idea to just jump right into the action with a big account. What’s the worst that could happen?

For most people, nobody will notice. But for someone in the public eye, you could stream it to millions and expose your true level of expertise, or lack thereof. Which is exactly what happened to Elon Musk.

What is Path of Exile 2? A New Chapter in Action RPGs

Path of Exile 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed action role-playing game (ARPG) Path of Exile, developed by Grinding Gear Games.

Path of Exile 2 introduces a brand-new campaign that unfolds 20 years after the events of the original game. This sequel doesn’t replace the original campaign but runs alongside it, offering players two complete storylines to explore within the same game client.

Both campaigns lead to the same shared endgame, ensuring a seamless integration for veteran players and newcomers alike.

Enhanced Gameplay and Visuals

One of the most noticeable upgrades in Path of Exile 2 is its enhanced graphics and animations. Built on an upgraded version of the original game engine, the sequel features improved character models, realistic environments, and stunning visual effects that elevate the dark and gritty atmosphere fans love.

The gameplay mechanics have also been refined. Path of Exile 2 introduces a revamped skill system, removing the need for separate support gem slots and integrating them directly into the gear. This allows for more customization and streamlines the process of creating unique builds.

Expanded Classes and Characters

Path of Exile 2 offers players 19 new ascendancy classes, providing fresh options to suit various playstyles. These classes maintain the depth and complexity that Path of Exile is known for, giving players even more freedom to experiment with character builds.

Players will also appreciate the overhauled progression system. From rebalanced mechanics to new weapon types, Path of Exile 2 offers exciting tools for theorycrafting and creating powerful characters.

A Shared Endgame

Perhaps one of the most intriguing aspects of Path of Exile 2 is its shared endgame with the original campaign. Players can seamlessly switch between campaigns while progressing toward the same intricate endgame content, including the iconic Atlas of Worlds. This approach unifies the community, ensuring that no content is left behind while introducing new challenges and opportunities.

A Game for Fans and Newcomers Alike

Path of Exile 2 is designed to appeal to both longtime fans and new players (and excentric billionaires). Its combination of rich lore, deep mechanics, and a thriving community make it an exciting addition to the ARPG genre.

Just remember to give a try the old-fashioned way- by starting your own account and actually learning all the skills needed to successfully play.
