Before you try it.
Do both characters receive identical items?
No. They remain separate characters with their own inventories and equipment.
Can I control P2 directly?
Yes. Smart Focus gives P2 full controller input whenever needed.
Does this require two PoE 2 clients?
No. MultiPilot Lite can use one local couch co-op client or two separate clients.
