Path of Nerfs

I do dislike the increases to the XP.

Has GGG considered the possibility that no matter what they do a small percentage of players will always do things faster than they should?

I understand that GGG stands for Grinding Gear Games and i accept that a grind is part of the game. However with that said i find it very frustrating when that grind is continually increased just to try and stop a few people that will never truly be stopped.

The more you try and stop them the more they’ll find other ways to level faster. Meanwhile those of us who just want to play the game at a more general pace end up having the goal posts moved further and further away till it starts to feel it like it’s pointless to play.

I feel this is true for all nerfs to an extent. You nerf things to stop a few abusing them only for those of us struggling to get builds to work it makes everything 10 times harder.

It feels like time and time again you nerf something that gives the abuser say 100 of something when they pat their heads, rub their stomachs and rotate their foot while the rest of who only manage to pat their head can only achieve 20. You then nerf it so the abusers can now only achieve 80 but also make it so the rest us can now only achieve 10 making it useless. Do this enough times like you have and everything starts to look useless.

How about you try leaving things alone or find ways to only stop the few players you want to stop without it affecting everyone else like putting diminishing returns on high level xp generation? Or a cap on the total amount of XP that can be earned per hour so it stops those few who go over what the average player achieves while having no effect for the average player at the same time.

Or better yet have ‘casual’ servers that are immune to xp nerfs and the like. Let those who want to try and break the game break it and let the rest of us actually enjoy it.

And you talk with no content own? Who are you? Your 13 challenges said you play whole one day in Harbi or less and you talk like u know something.
You will again do same play one day and give us your honorable opinion on patch 3.5?
Thank you for your spam.


I play on harb league about 3 weeks for testing some builds and getting MTX eyes. Your 36 achievments says nothing for me, you may take this on casul scrubcore. I see only whine from your side and nothing else. People whine about lvl which they cannot reaches without nerf, whine about OP nerf and forgot that tomorrow will be list with buffs. Wow so whine such whine.
I work, have a family and support this game like no other game.

My 1~4 hrs of daily gameplay nerfed by 50 ppl who reach lvl 100 very fast.

Very nice. Just nerf who play 10hrs+
let's go!

Omygosh xD

My new build is compromissed >.<


Let this be a lesson. Never plan to play a build until after the patch has been deployed!
Pro players take 100 lvl in 1.8 days. LOWER THAN TWO DAYS. Omg. They dont care cbout ur nerf,ur exp nerf hitted only normal players. =_______________= Hate GGG.
To be fair, most of the nerfs are ok. VP was a problem, it was just stupid op and if you didn't go VP, you basically made life harder than it had to be^^

The item nerfs are ok as well. Not to big, not to small. Those op items will still be great.
The whine is real one more time...

The only "nerf" that's unnecessary is the EXP-nerf. I mean really, those racers are inhuman. They powerlevel like crazy and complain about "it's going to fast!"?
People who are enjoying the game and playing it like a proper RPG (with looting and stuff, y'know?) allready have a hard time reaching levels 95-100, if they just play for fun. But I assume in that case, those people are not intended to reach a higher level than 90...

You think nerfs, because I know for sure that glacial cascade will take hit, and is not mention today, and there will be more nerfs. But I dont care too much I know if I will play I will own content, I only regret around no ingame trade system (AH, etc.) and I rlly enjoyed in "Mayhem" where I didnt do trades almost at all because currency was substantial and I enjoyed in playing game not in trade.
I wish there is Void option and I can have it whole league, because I dont care about permanent league at all and I hate wasting my time on trade shit instead play content, drop is shit besides "Mayhem".


Rlly you played 3 weeks and made 13 challenges, so what did you do those three weeks, killing Hilcock again and again and you spread nonsense now?

Use your brain before you wrote more nonsense.
