Path of Exile 2.4.0: Atlas of Worlds Patch Notes

Nice work guys

Being Earthquake always uses reduced duration, it really seems like you over nerfed it. I'm really disappointed, I was planning on doing the lazy pally + 1h earthquake build so I could have one build bring me through all the new content, but with the increase to monster life and the rather extreme tuning of EQ, I am at a loss for a build to play in the new league, which is in two days :(

Static strike is boring as the skill feels like it has no impact when attacking. Reeve, lacerate are basically the same skill. Ice crash'es reduced attack speed (dumb) is annoying, as is anything that reduces movement speed or attack/cast speed (actually those mechanics are simply 'unfun' in any circumstance.

I know new content means more supporter packs released, but GGG really needs to spend time doing QoL improvements, and part of that is coming up with better mechanics then more life, less damage. There are better ways to balance and more enjoyable mechanics.

WOW!

Triple nerf on Juggernaut EQ-builds:

Need some new build idea

so glad ggg has responded on this nerf fest..oh wait they havnt ... good thing they care...oh wait they dont ...

Doesn't matter how many times you double the number 0, it will always be 0! :^)

Maybe your computer to old and can't see numbers after 0.X zeros?
But if chances like a mirror drop, then i also could round it to ZERO!

While i love most of the changes this one need to be removed completely:

"

Each additional player in your party adds a chance for an additional random essence to drop when the monster is killed.

I accidently removed quotes for the above comment. All I wrote was "LOL".
The post has been corrected.

Feels like multi level - multiple nerfs. Some of my chars have to retire i guess.

Pew Pew fun no more ! :(

Pretty nice patch notes, although I'd buff more full melee skills like Heave Strike or Glacial Hammer giving them unique mods to them. For example, Heavy Strike could do 200% more damage to isolated targets or maybe stack damage for each hit to the same target consecutively.

And Cast on Critical is nerfed... AT LAST! This support gem was so broken, that whole meta builds were just depending on it to clear end-game content just by facerolling. This was needed.

Reading all the butthurt meta kids is so funny.

Can't wait to play Atlas of Worlds!
