back in the days i used to duel in d2 a lot and played poe after, so i kinda have experience with both.. ehm so where do i start.. so: POE PVP IS ABSOLUTE SHIT :cry: not only is it not as fun as d2, it doesnt even come close :wacko: you remember how the deciding factor in d2 duels was skill (well unless you go orb sorc vs dudu or something, in which case fuck you)? well skill doesnt mean shit in poe pvp. the deciding factors in poe pvp include, but are not limited to:

1) class. classes are rock/paper/scissors system, for example caustic arrow will demolish anything thats not CI. CI on the other hand is completely immune to caustic arrow, and will rape it hard. but there are things that rape CI, and those things are raped by caustic arrow...well at least thats an example from a year ago. meta classes change, but the rock/paper/scissors system never does

2) items. unlike in d2, items in poe mean a lot more than skill. skill doesnt matter for shit

3) build. the only thing that requires experience in poe duels is how you build the char. this is actually hard and requires you to know a lot about the game, or at least know someone who does

4) advanced strategies. spoiler alert: there are none. game is too constricted (small arenas, cooldown on teleport, very low limit on hotkeys), and lacks the unintentional errors that made d2 pvp even better and created dueling strategies (stuff like desynch, wsg, smite/foh stun etc)

tldr: from one d2 player to another, dont waste time on this shit if you want good pvp. poe endgame is basically getting good gear and then doing content to make even better gear, while having at least 3 trade apps open because the true poe endgame is a trading simulator :cry:
