            PC LOAD LETTER - WTF is that? 
Seriously why are these Ascendancies?
 
Make them a bonus tree for actually engaging in that content if you so chose to better your character in end game, without having to invest mirrors. Give 2 points for free, and the option to invest addition points if you so choose.
 
Remove the downsides, they add nothing to gameplay and just make it not worth doing.
 
Your time would have been better spent taking a look at the skills and ascendancies that no one plays and making them playable, which would actually improve the game.
 
A+ on trade implementation!
             
THIS! How boring and small. |

| Well, I can only hope these bloodlines didn't take too much effort to develop and test. Most of the time I select which of the good (main) ascenancy passives is the least useful one. Vast majority of Bloodlines passives is actually weaker than the main ascendancy passive I would take 5th given I had points.Please give 2 free dedicated bloodline ascendancy points so that we could actully use this new game elements. Otherwise they will stay niche (especially after this league when some ppl may select it just to experience novelty). It should be trivial to implement - just 2 extra ascendancy points the first time Bloodline boss is defeated + cap (higher for Ascendants) how many points can be allocated in main tree

| None of these are good enough to replace an actual ascendency node. They are only good if you're playing a build that gets either nothing or very little from their last 2-4 points. Disappointed.....
 No new mapping content to farm, only scarab changes were nerfs, no additions changes or buffs, and all the bloodlines mostly look like a letdown. The only one that really jumps out as probably strong to me is the Catarina global defense from spectres and Fertile Will for 100% damage, 3% regen and cannot be stunned aura..
 
 My only hope is that "wombcrafting" uniques will be able to remove some downsides of certain uniques and let them be good.

| I will hop on the train that says meh bloodlines. 
 Only gonna go for the +1 ring slot bloodline and only because I am going to play a niche build that uses flesh + flame to get my 4th needed main ascendancy.
 
 League already seemed underwhelming as is (no hard feelings), but these bloodlines had my hopes up for something actually exciting.
 
 Realizing you have to spend your main asc points is like getting a sandwich without ham.
 
 Atleast the genesis tree looks interesting and +1 on async trade.

            This is so great. Finally a reason to hunt down these lategame bosses that you usually dont bother to grind for. 
And those that say these points are weak are a little clueless in my eyes.
 
Like 50% ele damage converted to chaos is probably one of the strongest ascendency points in the game right now. I believe stronger than original sin - that should say it all. 
With that node you can easily rotate almost your entire phys to lightning to spell through all elements and then to chaos. With how added damage works in poe1, that should be pretty insane. 
 
I love it and would like to see something like that in poe2 as well. Great system because it can be expanded so easily too.
 
Great job ggg.
             
I hope you see the irony in this? 50% ele convert to chaos is better than Osin ? Its flat out worse conversion and doesnt include the penetration ? So ironic that you used the term "clueless":p
 
EDIT: By pen I mean lowering enemy chaos res to 0 Last edited by fancyfootwork#0420 on Oct 27, 2025, 11:54:57 AM |

            Does the "Primal Roar" (2% increased Attack Speed per Minion, up to a maximum of 80%) from Farrul also count for minions?  
I thought so first and was hyped, but then realised it does not explicit states "Attack Speed FOR Minion", only "Attack Speed per Minion". Now I am unsure and unhyped. So its not for minions, but only for me? Why should i use 40 minions to benefit full of this bloodline to get increased attack speed? For faster shield charge? Vaal skeletons can reach the number 40 easy, but makes no really sense for me playing a minion build to get 80% attack speed.
 
Sure, 80% IAS would be quite impressive for an attack build, but investing heavy into minions for that? I dont know. Skeletons are one shot candidates anyway. You would need at least 10 minions to get 20% IAS to consider taking Primal Roar. Then you go into a map and all your minions are instant dead and you need to revive them for your attack speed build? I dont know... 
 
Only Elementalist "Liege of the Primordial" can revive golems automatically, but if my golems dont profit from the IAS I dont see why I should ever take "Primal Roar". If golems would get the IAS it would be awesome, especially in an minion themed bloodline. Then it would be a no-brainer. Anyone an idea what "Primal Roar" would be good for?
 
If GGG would consider giving all bloodlines (at least) one of the "Legacy of Phrecia" ascendancy points on top, it could be wild and people would be more hyped again. Even if there are some good points in the bloodlines, I also miss this gamechanger moment in my head, that leads to the "OMG I definitely need to make a build around this" moment. But atm some of them are boring, others far too conditional, some have downsides, which makes it hard to consider them as an worthy substitute for ascendancy points. The 3 bloodline ascendancies from the trailer looked far more promising.
 
@GGG: 
Do those bloodline ascendancies bosses need to be defeated for EACH of my chars? Or only once and then all my chars have access to this bloodline of this boss? 
 
And please finally bring back TOTA... Some go delving the whole day, some go heisting the whole day, some go beast farming in menagerie the whole day, some go crafting the whole day, some are in sanctum the whole day. I dont. I want to do Trial of the Ancestors tournament the whole day. But I am not allowed, which is bad and sad.
             
I completely agree with you about TotA. I've enjoyed it so much and for it to not be included hurts. So much fun potential lost.  |
