How Giant's Blood Changes Path of Exile 2's Rules

It's not uncommon to see fictional characters wield comically large weapons in a single hand, at times even in video games, and this Path of Exile 2 Keystone passive does exactly that. Giant's Blood is located in the bottom-left part of the skill tree, and it allows players to wield two-handed weapons in one hand, meaning they can either dual-wield two huge weapons or wield one with a shield. This is an incredible feat in the game and an equally powerful Keystone, though sacrifices must be made. Giant's Blood can also be obtained with the Treefingers Unique Item, which unlocks the Keystone regardless of the players' current place on the skill tree. These gloves can be used as early as level 11. Giant's Blood's Drawbacks in Path of Exile 2 Explained Much like most of the Keystones in Path of Exile 2, Giant's Blood comes with a drawback, which is that players need three times the attribute requirements of any two-handed weapon they intend on using. For example, a level 38 Crumbling Maul that can normally be used with 88 Strength requires players 252 Strength instead, with Giant's Blood unlocked, which can be a daunting task. Even <a href="https://www.u4gm.com/path-of-exile-2-currency">path of exile 2 orb for sale</a> like Meginord's Girdle and The Vertex can only help so much, and a Giant's Blood build will need to spec into attributes one way or the other. Why Giant's Blood is a Great Keystone in Path of Exile 2 Even with the drawbacks, Giant's Blood is a great buildcrafting tool because it unlocks many options. Normally, two-handed weapons come with the downside of not allowing players to use <a href="https://www.u4gm.com/path-of-exile-2-currency">buy path of exile 2 orb</a> and foci, thus giving up some defenses for what is typically more offense. In the case of Giant's Blood, players once again have the opportunity to choose between going ultra-offensive by dual-wielding two-handed weapons or using one with a shield. Not only that, but there will be more scenarios where Giant's Blood becomes even more interesting further down the line when weapon types like Swords and Spears are added, as there will also be more Uniques to choose from. As it stands, Giant's Blood can make Path of Exile 2's bosses feel less imposing, as they are usually much bigger than the player character. Instead, dual-wielding two-handed weapons or using them with a shield helps reduce the visual impact of the bosses' size, to a degree, while also giving players new tools that were never previously available in Path of Exile.
