Had something to say, but after reading some posts i'm not sure i still want to.

"They finally destroyed what i don't like, yayyyy!" Really? If you're etero your next step is to ask the government to make homosexual relationship illegal? Or the inverse? All peoples have to live by your standards?

Not saying these changes aren't good (or bad), just that the tone of some posts seem that of someone who has just won a long battle, while there wasn't even something that could have been called a skirmish. Anyone was always free to play what they liked most, so why this rage? Cuz you loved life builds and always felt jealous of your op ci friend? Why you cared so much?

I'm not evaluating the announcement itself, just saying that the whole thread has quickly evolved into "es fanboy vs life fanboy", so there's no hope anymore to have a nice and interesting exchange of opinions. It's a shame.

PS: I'm etero and i don't speak english (this has to be said to hopefully prevent bad jokes), and i don't like SOME of these news, while i could agree with some others. Not whining, just stating my personal opinion, since this is just a game and i don't give a fuck in the end.

In my opinion, don't use 25k ES guy as a standard of majority ES players have. Most of them (including me) only have around 7-12k ES.
I am afraid this adjustment also greatly reduce the survivability of medium level ES players, thus making the game unenjoyable.
Just rethink about this.
25k ES to 15k with compensation for faster recharge rate may look ok.
But 7k ES to 4.2k ES, man you're killing these players.

Not quite 25k ES, but I can't find the video I saw recently with 25k in Legacy playing solo:

Youre a complete idiot, what kind of comparisons are you trying to make where you compare nerfing of energy shield in a video game to homosexual relationships?! Are you out of your mind? You sound exactly like all of these crying Energy Shield "fanboys" that would ridicule themselves and blurt out the most ignorant statements ever heard by humans just to get some point accross they do not even understand themselves. And yes, hearing 20000 ES players cry so hard they are threatening to quit the game, stop all financial support, go back to d3, grim dawn or whatever because EVERYTHING IN POE IS FROM THIS POINT ON POINTLESS because you can only get 15k ES shield and not 25k anymore while Life players did shaper runs on 5k life. Yes, I feel the need to ridicule them.
