PVP Supporter Pack - Chris responded 7/10 & 7/11 & 7/12
Why don't you ask him why PvP plays out as follows...
-Sit in queue for upwards of 30minutes -Find your opponent is just some afk build shithead with 18k ES and the FoTm no effort required afk skill i.e Vortex this month, Firestorm others, Tempest a few before that etc.. -Sit there for 90seconds at a time, drawing rounds til there aren't any left and you both go on your way. -Go back to town/hideout/pvming/log off and say to yourself, wow...that was some fucken exilerating shit right there. So much afk, so much skill, so much awesomeness!!! woooooooooooooooooooo fuck ya can't wait to do it again woooooooooooooooooooo!!!!! Repeat...infinitely GGG, the ADA of gaming....huuuur i gotz mai skilz.

b-b-but then Dismantle will be relevant again!
Kinda true what Mulla's saying, but it's better than being 1-shot from offscreen constantly. Yet, I did like killing MorgantheBard with 0 effort (dual curse, frostbomb, 3-link Vortex). Lavender or Leave.

" This is exactly why I was suggesting funding for a pvp server of its own. And it doesnt have to be complex. It could be as simple as the extension of sarn arena like I have previously posted. The point of the PvP supporter packs is to separate all the bitchy PvE complainers about GGG putting any time into developing PvP instead of PvE. My email to chris took all my consideration from everything I have done pvp related in this game to come up with one solution that addresses everything and was meant to be simple. We already know they have many servers to run races on. We have seen them do PvP events in sarn arena. Sarn arena extensions and a safe zone really couldnt be that hard imo. Balance is one of the most argued topics...which is a huge reason pvp skills and balancing should be separate from pve balance. For PvP to be really balanced everyone should have access to all the gear, no legacy or RMT. Honestly I put all the effort I could into my email

Chris I dream of a way to separate the toxic hostility of PvE Players speaking out against GGG developing PvP instead of PvE features. We need to rebirth PvP in a new light. free of this stigma. I think Kickstarter could be a huge solution to this problem. Players will understand that the development costs were funded by the mass of players that share the dream of a PvP Town and League.
The matchmaking system has been improving and improving and seems to be a perfect match for a separate PvP instance/server/league. I think the FFA arena in Act 3 would be perfect. Extend the four gates slightly into a safe area. The safe area has merchants that vend the base items for crafting at the benches nearby, as well as Leo who hosts the matchmaking. All crafting costs are free, as is the gem merchant. All the item affixes ranges are normalized. Incorporate corruptions and other features as you see fit. When joining the league you create a new character with a designated max level that spawns into this isolated town/server. My hope is that creating a PvP Town in a separate league will change peoples outlook on PvP especially when funded through a system that's not detracting from PvE. The endless replay-ability and competitive drive this would add to the game would be astounding. Right now PvP is pretty segregated not only by leagues, but as well as bankrolls. The entry level keeps rising as legacy affixes and unique items are created. The latest problem has been hybrid physical damage increase % has been reduced from the original value of Mercenary 's 54% to 44%. Not such a big deal but it impacts newer players as well as some veterans with this lingering feeling of inequality. The PvP Town would change this entirely. PoE is an amazing engine with amazing art. Creating a competitive drive within this system/game would be the next level dream. No leagues separating the PvP player base, no need to trade, no need to grind for hours to compete, and balancing completely independent of PvE. The funding system you decide to use could have different tiers of donation and support granting PvP Skins or Armor Sets. Add a PvP achievement system and maybe a back attachment ranking system. It sounds like a ton of work. I would no life on that system no complaints for the rest of my life, being the happiest person alive lol. Sorry for the long read, I have alot more to add but its already too long. Let me know your opinions!

Fuck, I'm on my phone and had a big response typed and just lost it because I had mulla quoted on another browser window so it saved the mulla quote instead of my response to you. Not typing it all again FFFFFFF
I love it man, but I don't think that'll happen without us paying for another senior dev, and as they would argue senior devs don't grow on trees et and they would never be able to give us a concrete completion date which would be unfair to the supporters who most likely wouldn't get points because of the amount of work associated 🎆🎆 www.youtube.com/c/Ahfack 🎆🎆 NEW #1 LLRF Helm -> 30% MORE|25CON|25BURN|-12fire|352es 🎆🎆 #1 Phys/Impale Leg 70% Multi Amulet + #1 Phys Rings! 🎆🎆 ^^Free 7L Fortify Cyclone! 🎆🎆 https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/534134 Last edited by Ahfack on Jul 12, 2016, 6:00:57 AM

Hi and first of all this is very nice idea with the pvp supporter packs. Secondly i have a suggestion of my own to make, maybe it has already been said somewhere, if that's the case please ignore the rest.
How about GGG giving pvp community some moding freedom. Since they are busy doing other things and dont have the resources, i'm sure pvp community would gladly do some of their work for them. By that i mean, making new custom maps, we have the technology (hideouts) so why not? Maybe they could release some other tools that would help drive pvp scene, like balancing gems damage, creating custom tournaments... and well you could probably think of more other things than me, but you get the idea. And all these mods would only work in pvp areas and would not interfere with the core game at all, so the pve crowd wouldnt riot, like they love to. | |
The idea on paper is 'nice', but do you really want pvp arenas look like this:

Developing a proper toolset is more serious task than just pulling out some additional default tileset pvp maps. Problem: impostor syndrome Solution: nerf everything Result: depressing mess Last edited by a_z0_9 on Jul 16, 2016, 10:53:23 AM
