2.6.0 Area of Effect Changes

Projectiles were already better than AoE skills for clearing before the 2.6.0 patch. The changes simply widened the gap.


I'm sure you guys will monitor the game to see how much what kind of skills get used at the top few thousands of the ladders and rebalance accordingly for 3.0.

Sometimes I really wonder why you guys push out half-assed patches instead of scheduling them for a later date. You could've easily kept that for 3.0 and asses some items and most gems (or at least try to do a mediocre job).
Now even more stuff is broken. Not even IKEA can keep up with that.
why curse are so badly nerfed

AoE nerf is a small step in the right direction. You've nearly won me back, GGG!

Game wont become slower, and melee become worse. Not so bad.

Nerfing Casters ?!

Best decision EVAAAA !

Let's check how it worked before :

- Diablo - fail.
- Diablo 2 - massive fail.
- Diablo 3 - massive fail.
- Silkroad - now empty server. dead game because of this.
- Runes of Magic - ghost towns. dead game.
- World of Warcraft - massive fail.
- AION - epic fail.
- TERA - epic fail.
- ArcheAge - fail.
- Lineage 2 - epic fail.

Shall we keep going ?!
Da fock You are hired recently !? Some of past decision making personal from these games ?!

Never nerf the casters ! Casters only expect one thing - getting OP, OP and OP-est !
That's the focking why they have choose to be casters for the lord sake !
With the "1h 6L wipe" the PoE turns to a joke now.
There is no sane reason for one to play it any further.

Bumping for awareness
This madness needs to be stopped
I dont understand why the nerf to area of effect had to be so big. A small nerf would be acceptable, but how it is right now is very weird. I got a friend to level70 (his first time) and he doesnt understand why i use increased area of effect when it barely does anything. I have to agree with him a little, the difference between concentraded effect gem and increased area of effect gem is very small.

You nerfed area of effect too much.
