When your post is so disrespectful I would like to punch you in the face?

All these whiners.. Be happy with what they give you, ungrateful dickheads.

Grateful? I have spent more than $750 (probably over $1000, actually) on this game. This is literally the most expensive game I have ever played, even if it IS by choice.

I or anyone who ever spent even a dime on the game can whine all they like.

You apologists are much worse, for any gave/dev, than any amount of "whining" ever will be.


PS - How pathetic that a barely-inflammatory post makes you resort to desiring violence.

Man if you spent that much is because you felt that the experience you had with the game so far, worthed $1000. Divide that by hours played, perhaps is more or less a coffee/day? I don't know.

My point is if you feel that GGG let you down with the future content, the thing is, you don't have to pay for it anymore. You didn't lost any money because what you have payed was worth your time.

Buffed The Taming. From what I can tell, Legacy Emberwake. Introduction of Immolate. Conclusion: OroFlicker is still going strong, excellent. Nerfs that barely affect me. Lots of new content.

There might be stuff that bothers other people and I'll not make any comments either way on the legitimacy of their opinions. For me personally, this will be mostly good stuff. Neat :)

It will take a year or more for 3.0's changes to be unfudged. Build diversity is being removed and GGG just changes the meta every few leagues followed by a mad rush for gear. This is done to keep the economy moving. Other games do this, and I stopped playing them.

If GGG actually cared about "balance" they would remove legacy items.

The only question I have is what about the characters that we already had before the launch that are high up like mine with the removal of the other difficulties? I got about three people in the 70's range and to be frank I don't feel like starting over I just want to see the rest of story. I hope we just get skill reset or something.

Storm Burst: Channel to unleash a stream of projectiles that deal lightning damage and always pierce through enemies. When you stop channeling, the projectiles explode, dealing significant damage in an area around them.

Can any1 say how this will interact with totems ,especially the stop channeling - projectiles explode part ? since they dont "stop" channeling till target is dead. anyone ?

Probably the same way Ball Lightning does : Just keeps going...

So using it on totems will make half of the gems mechanic not work ? :/ wow...

Rebalancing the game to finally address the past years of rampant power creep and double dipping mechanics was never going to be something easy for the player base to swallow.

It feels bad, and I feel like GGG has waited until they have gotten to this size before making these hard changes.

It feels like we have lost diversity, for your average player, we've probably gained a little, you no longer gravitate toward double dipping build threads because they have 14+++ million DPS in the heading (and omit the fact it takes 78ex to reach this point).

At the end of the day PoE will survive as long as it continues to evolve, it might need to go through some ugly iterations to continue to do this.

Agreed! I have played this game through a few iterations, and frankly I knew the blowback on this was going to be loud.
I say loud and not large on purpose, because the majority of players (including myself) don't have the time or the care to post on reddit or here on the forums. In fact this is my first one!
Overall, all I see is change. Change, for all it's worth, is going to make some happy and anger others. While I am sad about a few things (ES Nerf) I figure that they are watching it and will change it if the build diversity all moves to just Life. At the same time, there are plenty of ideas that I can't wait to try!
You don't have to be happy with changes, and you can make yourself be heard, but all I see out of this patch notes is effort. Whether they got it right or wrong is yet to be seen, but I for one cannot wait to try it out first and then let them know with clear EXAMPLES of what needs to be fixed.

I'm not against any of these changes necessarily but there are a few that sorta confuse me. If GGG is doing so much to bottle down on the power creep and remove a lot of power builds (which is fine) why are they massively buffing boss HP as well?

Also I get that not all bandit rewards were gonna come back but I expected that just mean the mostly worthless Cruel ones were going way of the dodo and we'd still have a way to get a bonus charge of our choice. With the nerfs to charges this patch taking away our ability to get another charge we want seems like an odd decision.

Very likely it will work the way Flameblast Totem does. The optimal way if you wanted to totem this spell is only use one totem and a recast would force an explosion. It's not a great way, but it would work.

I'm more interested in playing with Storm Burst + Sire of Shards. Bubble Beam time!

Damn !
Didn't see all this coming thats for sure :D
Personally not a big fan.. overtime dmg is in ( which im not a fan of )
It seems ES is getting rekt super hard. Not a big fan of that but I do agree the ES was going out of control. But almost 45% at high lvls? D: Thats.. too much? Can't say until its out I guess..
Overall love what you're doing with the game you are putting a lot of effort into it and I really appreciate it!
Keep up the good work <3

awesome! thanks for the hard work guys!
