Energy Shield and Life

extremely dissapointed in you GGG. this is exact what i feared, a completely inspirationless nerf of es values, and barely any life buffs. guess kaom's will be worth 10ex next league cuz it'll be the only thing making builds viable

Hahaha they all crying and beg for thier ES. you guys must understand that ES is really need to be nerf, its overwhelming its unlimited unlike EVA @95% ARMOUR@ 90%. EVA n ARMOUR need also huge HP. You guys immune to chaos and accuracy and even life doesn't matter. So dont get mad its only necessary.

I really think GGG should focus on increasing build diversity and end game progression. These changes would basically kill CI and dozens of builds with it and remove a great deal of end game item progression.

CI is a bit overtuned, yes. But it shouldn't be killed. GGG seems to be listening to the community a bit too much, stay true to core design concepts keep build diversity. Nerfs are fine but killing builds is a bad Idea.

Please fix clearspeed meta.. We are so close, with double dipping and defense balancing. The game is way too damn fast, mostly because of movement speed skills.

You guys have created very interesting and engaging monster mechanics but all we see are effects on enemy death.

If there is anything I would ask for in all my years of playing is to slow the game down.. Fix spammy movement speed skills.. I figured now is the time to ask with 3.0 around the corner.

^ this.
Try looking at videos of people playing the game. It's super stupid. People are too sunken into the swamps to see clearly. Take an observer perspective and ask yourself what a good game is and what you do in it... it is not PoE end game. If people really get satisfaction from doing stupid shit, then make a zone for them on the side where they can do that. Speed running trivial content over and over, like equally stupid Diablo 3 farming.

Probabily this game is become the hardest game in the world .This game lose player every day and this is a fact we all know( friend list empty day by day ) and now another brutal nef anouncement, i wonder if we not be able to play decent anymore this game, why we stil play or invest in this game?

Guys, i what about BUFF to life? For christ sake... for example there are still some 4% inc life nodes on passive tree.

Where are Life nodes buff? Flat life buffs on gear (besides hybrid gear)? Higher life master crafts???
As a casual "returning" player most i ever played were life builds and all the time it was disgusting experience in end game. Not everyone has Legacy Kaom's. Also mandatory Belly of the Beast is beyond retarded pigeon-holed way to play most life builds. Otherwise you would be lucky to have 3k life with all life nodes taken on your witch. Good luck playing end-game with 3k life, especially on caster builds with no physical mitigation. This is just insta-gib frustration fest.
1) Flat life increases on ALL gear.
2) Life increases on master crafts.
3) Life increase on FLASKS. Both amount recovery and speed recovery. 1k insta-life flasks would not be viable with something like 8-10k life. And slow recovery flasks are useless.
4) Life nodes on tree must ALL be increased. Especially in spellcasters area. 3% life increase is disgusting

Well !! I didn't think my ES was too high ??

Considering I never had the CURRANCY nor the patients to craft amazing gear; and let me tell u I still DIE LOTS especially when the game lags like a shithole aha ALLTHETIMEEEEE

I enjoy progression in the game esp awaiting release of Fall Of Oriath, but I just think you guys need to relax a bit. And I think its so unfair for average players like me when u nerve shit ;/

4% life 5% armour nodes "THIS IS A BUFF"

Hello,

I dont understand the current decision, Energy Shield so hard to nerve that it becomes unplayable.
Why the life is not buffed ??
Currently, well equiped players have 10-14k ES. This is also needed since otherwise many encounters oneshot the player. The Player had no Armor, Evasion. Its pure EnergyShield.
A player with 10k es (average gear) hat 6,5k ES with the 35% and that without instant leech.
The ppl will do higher maps as tier 11-12. All other will oneshot you.

No 5% of the players reach your 25k EnergyShield (without groupsupport --> Aurabot)
10-14k is normal and that requires long grind.

Currently, many players are playing PoE but now you are going towards Blizzard's decision. Make it unplayable or total casual like.

Spend your time to the mass of players and not after a few exceptions.

Many players invest a lot of time in the game and have, of course, also better equip.
You are punished in the moment players who do not have the time or experience, or the luck for drops.

The game should not be easier. At the moment you steal the people the fun. You balance no more. You only DESTROY it.


I hope that poe does not end like diablo 3
