How to beat Jamanra, the Abomination in Path of Exile 2
- Jamanra, the Abomination is a boss in Path of Exile 2’s second act.
- The main fight comes at the end of the act when they become the Jamanra, the Abomination.
- Jamanra is one of the hardest bosses up to this point in Path of Exile 2.
- Jamanra is weak to cold damage.
- It is important to have as much lightning resistance as possible to negate Jamanra’s powerful attacks.
- The fight is split into two phases, and the first phase is arguably harder than the second.
- The two main attacks Jamanra has in phase one are a lightning melee attack and a spear throw when you are fighting at range.
- Once Jamanra drops to 60% health and goes back to the altar they were on at the beginning of the fight, the cart you are on will be destroyed, and you will have to fight in the sand on your own.
- Jamanra will almost always begin phase two by casting a wind cyclone that swirls around the map.
- Good positioning is key to the fight, and keep ticking away at Jamanra’s health.

The best class to play in Path of Exile 2 early access
- Path of Exile 2 has six classes, every class has a distinctive playstyle whose drawbacks might not be a dealbreaker according to game style. There is not a single powerhouse class that lets you sweep through unlike in Diablo 4. At launch, the Mercenary is the best class with exceptional combos, high damage potential and flexible playstyle. Witch is the second-best class, specifically for its kit which includes minion summoner, powerful spellcaster and debuffer. Ranger is the best class for crowd control, with a variety of skills and is the best for causing status ailments. Monk is a fun class to play but it takes ten hours to get started. Warrior is an excellent defensive class but is weak and sluggish. Sorceress is fine in the game, with access to three major elements but lacks defensive skills.
