Balance in Path of Exile: Legion

Wow... i was so hyped for this new expansion... and now I'm not. So many nerfs. Way to go GGG...

" [etc] Still waiting to hear how a build that can do normal Atziri and yellow Elder okay and still gets one-shot by Uber Izaro half the time is "OP".... Awakened Combustion Support when?

" I agree with you. I bet they've looked at items showcase on Reddit. Few people crafted items way above their expectations. So time to nerf doesn't matter that the cost of this craft was 500 exalted orbs and quadrillion fossils... For average players, those items are out of reach. But hey let's nerf it just to make sure 99,999...% players won't reach that ever! Pardon My English.

" get phys dmg reduction or dodge izaro's telegraphed slams. running around with 5% phys dmg reduction and acrobatics should get you 1 shot, and it is deserved. Atziri and elder don't do big phys hits, or phys hits can be avoided easily. Sales/Services/Stuff:

" This. Seriously. If 15k-20k ES players are such a problem...why not just apply a diminishing returns scaling factor to ES over, say, 9-10k? Awakened Combustion Support when?

" All I read here is "Welp, at leat streamers, top-tier players, and people who can game over 40+ hours each week are unaffected, guys!" Every time there is a nerf, it is the normal-skilled and less-frequent players who are screwed over; never the top-tier or the people who have the pleasure of gaming massive amounts. So...thanks for that. A game I am slowly coming to enjoy less and less often is yet again planning out a lack-luster experience for players like me. God forbid I have a job and responsibilities that preclude my playing games all day, every day. This past league might end up being the last league I played. In the limited time I get to play, I progress, on the whole, very little, because I am not there at the beginning. Those of us with lives and jobs outside of gaming are screwed from the very start of the league, and the disparity gets worse as every day goes by. The people who flourish, and the people that you always cater to, are the people who only have the responsibility or privilege of playing the game 24/7/365. Playing in a trading league is barely different, in these scenarios, from playing SSF. Thanks, GGG -- I love being shown that those of us who have less time do not matter to you. I spend a decent bit every quarter trying to support your game, and giving you my faith: I could be buying games that are meaningful to people with limited time outside of some weekends. Is this really how I, and those like me, are repaid? Nothing but nerfs that only screw over the players who care about having somewhat stronger skills, those which do not require so much "heavy investment", because of the limitations we face in finding playtime? Grazi! |

" That may be good advice but is pretty much the opposite of supporting the claim that the build in question (never mentioned acrobatics....?) is OP. Awakened Combustion Support when?

I admittedly have not read all 67 pages, but man that manifesto is a buzzkill. After losing interest halfway through Betrayal I fell for the hype and came back for Synthesis. My initial hype was crushed within a week, even the flashback didn't hold my attention long enough to hit maps. It's just so jarring to constantly stop what you are doing to go empty a bar, just to get back to what you were doing. Enter the legion video - HYPE! Finally, a league that isn't so cumbersome you need a PhD to play it. Finally, straightforward and fun looking mechanics. And now...this. Did you guys intern at Blizzard over the holidays? Reminds me of the old WoW slogan - "Fun was detected and eliminated"
TLDR - we aren't all streamers, we don't all have 234312342 hours to play every season. Stop nerfing the few builds that ordinary people can use to actually see something past T5 maps. |
