Energy Shield and Life
" A... hero? Jeez..... welcome to Path of Exile. This must be your first 2 mins here. Carry on my waypoint son, there'll be peace when maps are done.
Lay your portal gem to rest, don't you die no more. 'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this league. Try to make maps meet, you're a slave to the meta, then you leave. | |

" acually im sure the point of the game was to have balance in making it challenging through content and through building a unique character for that task as it is atm the game for the average player they generally dont get to end game and are left figuring things out a new each league because they dont have the time to sit around for hours reading about game mechanics what im trying to say is that this fable group of players who just breeze through end game are like 10% of the 80% average and the last 10% being people who play once in a blue moon and learn nothing going to extremes because GGG sees one of these 10% players for end game and think oh boi look how op they are compared to us plebs who aimbot our own content better fuckin kill off energy shield for the 80% and leave the top tier players still using energy shield still face rolling and then have the stupid low tier 10% not even relazing that the games been updated only people gettin screwed are the average players with random meme play 420 yoloswag boi | |
" well said |

Balance is an illusion exile

If the changes go live as is, I don't think many people will play es builds. And let's stop pretending like you could faceroll content only with es builds, there are plenty of life builds that trvialize end game content. Meta runners will also not be affected, because they will just play a new faceroll everything meta build (and obviously people will start complaining about that as well). Right now it just seems like es will be in a worse position than life is currently, which is sad. I mean, balance changes should encourage build variety, not the other way around, right?

" "NERF NERF NERF. See, all Life builds are OP. There is the proof...." ^ That is how people think that say ES needed that massive nerf. "There he goes. One of God's own prototypes.

You both seem to be missing the fact that in each video it's not life that is causing the issue at all it's the Flasks combined with blade flurry. That skill can scale damage into the hundreds of millions with the right gear and flask effectiveness. I suspect something about that will also be changed.

" its still a life oriented build and clearly not ES |
