Announcements - Clarifying the Ascendancy Changes - Forum

@SnrMarksman this always was and is an elitist game. GGG is fine with most players never getting to red maps let alone end game content.	Posted by Sidad#4699 on Jan 12, 2021, 6:33:44 PM Quote this Post
No more damage anymore for remaining chains. +1000 evasion on tailwind is missing. Accuary is missing and 50% inc area is missing. Projectile speed is missing (For TS Builds). Far shot gives more dmg yes, but you need that to compensate the dmg loss from ricochet. So in fact we can say Accuary is missing, 50% inc area is missing, eva is missing, projectile speed is missing The Gale Buff is rly cool. The only extrem powerfull thing is the bleeding note. I am sure with a bleeding barrage you can do alot of single target dps. So I am not really sure what to think about that rework....

Assassin just murdered. Probably will be the less used class in pair of still dead berserker.	Posted by K4r4k4s4#5749 on Jan 12, 2021, 7:27:03 PM Quote this Post
"our intention was to streamline many of these passive nodes so that they were much simpler but more powerful." "We did not specifically set out to buff or nerf the overall power of most Ascendancy Classes in Echoes of the Atlas" You effin' kidding right? My league starter has an outright 20% less damage and 20% less minion duration, and my bosskiller build has 30% less damage... this is ABSOLUTELY a nerf... it's NOT "simpler but more powerful" That statement is a flat out lie. These don't kill my builds completely, but they are NERFS. It's bad enough that you left us still saddled with the bleeding anal cancer conqueror system of progressing the atlas... it's just adding insult to injury to nerf my builds at the same time. That, that is, is. That, that is not, is not. Is that it? It is.	Posted by JugJugJug#2801 on Jan 12, 2021, 7:39:37 PM Quote this Post

Y'all gotta get over your egos of being so good and make room for the fact that without an ever-growing player base, this awesome free to play game we all love can't keep delivering bold new content. This Maven multi-boss expansion looks especially FOR all of the experienced and upper-tier players who are so good at the game, they can blithely criticize efforts to make it more accessible and easier to learn for less L33T players. I love the diversity of gamers in this community, but honestly, the smugness and entitlement in these forums can get really insufferable. Like, if y'all are so good, why not see a nerf as a challenge instead of a personal affront to being OP. Thank you, this is very refreshing to hear. The gatekeeping community of PoE's elitist needs to seriously fuck off. The game is growing and needs to pay wave to the new players who stick around No offense, but there is nothing approachable about POE at this point to a new player. There is literally too much going on in the game. And obviously they would have no concept if now-nerfed ascendancies were previously "overpowered".

Jesus, I actually don't know whether I should laugh or cry. In any cases, the person who made it is either a troll, or a retard lacking basic brain functions. Seriously... Affliction and Necropolis worst leagues ever. The current game design has slowly turned this game into a loot-shower fest, chase uniques are way too available; and obtaining chase items through stacked decks and valdo's boxes simply isn't fun.

Necros are definitely suffering from "loss Aversion". Guess you could not figure out a way to soften that blow eh? NS	Posted by Nightstone13#5744 on Jan 12, 2021, 9:32:40 PM Quote this Post
