Development Manifesto: Balance in Path of Exile: Conquerors of the Atlas

minions basically didn't get nerfed Aggressive minions is what was needed even if the skill gem gave +10% more damage still very much viable. Having 2 spectres instead of 3 without an empower link is totally fine in the early game sub 95.

Good to see GGG making improvements to make the base game MORE in line with the trailer shown with PoE2

The game is going back to a slow pace get used to it 30mil dps builds LoL

also dex stacking weapons are not so much strong, only if u invest a lot u deal good ammount of dps... for example de scourg arrow delve build, is only based oon glass cannon and ddoge, no abusive mechaniscs.. just dps with zero life.. so the nerf on cold stack is stupid...
All my builds: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1830178
the multi mod change sucks crafting sucks as it is i hope this wasnt done because of 1 or 2 builds that use it well
ARMOUR PENETRATION WHEN ? If its not on Friday 13 December , then melee characters are back in the dark corner.
THE DEEP SMELL OF YOU.. DANGEROUSLY MATCHES THE PERFUME INSIDE OF ME..
IT MUST BE MY HEART YOU ARE AFTER..
IT MUST BE MY LUNGS YOU ARE BREATHING FROM..
WE ARE NOT THE WINNERS OR THE LOSERS..
OH BABY WE ARE THE FIGHT ! ! !

Skele summoners are probably laughing pretty hard right now, seeing as how they're basically untouched :D.

Spectre nerf seems a touch harsh, bu-ut i've not played spectres in 3.8 so idk if it's a really big deal.
Zombie life got hit pretty bad though.


laughing with my 10 golem build as well

Think about it before asking...

"Does multimod with 3 mods INCLUDE the mod itself?"

WELL DUH.

The idea is to get rid of the 1 billion horrible reddit post about 2 stat items that are multimodded and supposed to be "impressive".

Crafters should rejoice as their skill and knowledge will FINALLY be rewarded, far gone are the days where you could alt spam into 2 stats and make a "godly weapon" with multimod and 3 crafted mods.

Now, it's 3 mods minimum + multi + 2.

3 Mods STILL allow you to alt spam + regal, but you need to hit a regal, you can't just annul the bad mod and go on.

This is crafting, just like before annuls.

Crafters didn't die for this, crafters are about to have a gooooood time.



its cool and all for the people with 100 exalts to craft an item but for people that dont play 24/7 this is fucking shit
I dont like their meta balance approach.

Why buff overall Monsters every 2 leagues (especially high tier maps), instead of nerfing overpowered skills?

That way the trash skills which do not get a rework, are even more crippled.

Sometimes I really have the impression, that at GGG-HQ's only "specialists" work, that are unable to see the bigger picture. (no Generalists there, which have a more complete oversight of the game?)

It's like with diseases, if you are using certain pharmaceuticals, it will not bring healing, but rather achieve a slight suppression in the accompaniments.

Therefore, the outbreak will come again and again, without ever achieving true healing (balance).

This so called manifesto reads like a nightmare. I agree with the Multi-Mod nerf. The rest is just overdoing it with the nerf-bat as always.

However, what enrages me the most are the Fortify downgrades. Just when I made an underplayed Champion league starter build around this underused class, they nerf 4 points of the god damn ascendancy ... probably by accident. If they don't change the Champion accordingly, it is another dead ASC.

Makes no sense outside the fact remains GGG hates melee and always has.

????????????????????? are you overreacting because you won the casino and got the right stats? what knowledge is that? what skill? clicking?

you call regal + annul skilled? people consider skilled the most stupid shit in this game what the hell..
"Parade your victories, hide your defeats. Mortals are so insecure."

I don't answer pms I delete them. I don't argue with randoms on the internet it's pointless.
As usual, melee gets the shaft.

Sigh... skipping this game now until it gets a good direction.
