Introducing Kirac's Vault Pass

lol just drop a HeadHunter it's easy

Coming from someone who was planning on buying ravager, I may not anymore. I don't support putting this in the atlas like a shitty mobile ad.

To anyone saying "oh it's small don't worry":
They'll keep going further each time. Potentially multiple passes each league and they line up taking up more screen space. Stop evil before it has a chance to do bad.

I thought, hey thats a fun idea to motivate me to get through the atlas, but then i realized i need to pay for it.

Go away, as if your MTX arent already overpriced AF.

Remember when they offered races with alternate art as a reward?

Why can't we buy these with the points that we already have?

Nice niche idea but worse monetization ever 79.90BRL to expensive for how little, Love U GGG but that was a fuckup.
BTW... The Bpass is ok if it was as bonus for who buyed the HIGHEST supporter packs or for who wanted to buy it separately.

Peace.

You took the idea of a battlepass from Tencent's PoE and turned everything that was good about it into an overpriced pile of nothing.

Cashgrab.

How is it a cash grab? It's very specific to a handful of uniques that a large part of the player base doesn't even use. That's like the opposite of a cash grab.

It's exactly what they said, a pass targeted at endgame players. If you don't use the items, aren't an endgame player, or simply don't think they're worth it, then this isn't for you and you can simply skip it. What's the issue?

I'm not a die hard vet like some of the players but holy hell. 30$ just for a smidgen of extra content and specific skins?

shit some freebie games only cost 5-10$ for a bp, some even included already you just grind out.

Whelp this is one way to piss off specific players, and I feel for em.

This idea in its current incarnation is weird. It's almost opposite of what people have been asking for a while - let cross realm skin transfers so Alt Art Stormclouds can be used in League, I bet they'd make a lot of money out of that.

Instead this is exactly the opposite, item-specific skins. The opportunity cost of this feature seems that we're not getting race rewards (we haven't for ages and they did not even mention the word race in their announcement). You have to be using those specific uniques which also has the opportunity cost of you not using some MTX that actually matches what you want.

The actual skins and effects are super cool, it's just weirdly specific and being tied to uniques is... I mean it's so overly specific for 8 skins you might never use, and even the Headhunter one is barely visible given how much gore the game has.




Since we know skins can have conditionals (i.e., auras), this would make a lot more sense if instead of locking to uniques people will rarely use, they were skins applicable to any slot, rare items included:

Mjolnir Skin: Deals that lightning effect based on how much of the Attack Damage was Lightning.
Aegis Aurora: Has the intensity of that shield effect based on how much max. resistance the shield has.
Desecrated Hands: Keep effect based on how many corruptions. This still means that the only way to get the maximum effect of this skin is with Hands of High Templar, but double corrupted gloves suddenly can look extremely bloody.
Headhunter: Explodes the heart of the enemy based on whether or not you're stealing their effect (Headhunter, Replica Headhunter, Inspired Learning
Paradoxica: I have no idea why this effect is tied to a Paradoxica, but replace minions'/mirages (goes well with Paradoxica + Saviour)/ancestrals/multiple strikes with the Paradoxica clone or if they want to stick to the Veiled thing, creates clones based on how many Unveiled mods the item has.
Bottled Faith: Effect Skin that changes Consecrated Ground based on radius, which would make Bottled Faith the best by default.

There, battle pass items that would be far more available to everyone getting them. Your Aegis Aurora looks cool, and so would your cool shield with +3% to maximum Cold Resistance, +3% to maximum Lightning Resistance, +2% to all maximum Resistances.

May I remind you all on the official description of PoE:



"We're sick of the recent trend towards bright, cartoony RPGs".

GGG: "hurr durr more flashy overpriced MTX :D"

its not the first of april? well....30dollar has to be a joke.

can we atleast get a free spit emote to spit on people with those skins?

planned on buying supporter pack next month but guess i wont now....

feels like the end of a once great company.
