I'm done. Every god dam build that is end game viable is crushed.

That is absolutely not even close to being true. But yea go ahead, bye Felicia

The thing is, while you can be cynical to people like myself leaving PoE, we take our support $$$ (or whatever currency you may use) with us.

So to Chris, you may have to cut back on those tasty bear claws and pizza rolls you chow down on while laughing at the very people who put those tasty treats into you widening gut.

I haven't supported PoE since July of 2017. Nor will I support it this game in the future.

Like others have stated; GGG can shit on the player base by nerfing build after build. But the player base has more power than they. We can simply nerf their wallets.

Good luck sycophants.

I like it, back to Beta roots.
Slow and careful :)

So very, very glad that GGG butchered their own Black Friday sale, causing me to spend money on a Dauntless Founder's pack instead, which was a great sale by comparison.

I was very excited about Abyss until I saw these patch notes. Not only did 2 of my league starter builds get messed with, but the XP nerf is just plain asinine. I have nearly 4k hours into POE according to Steam, have never had a lvl 100, simply because mapping is usually insanely boring and I can't force myself past high 80s- low 90s. Thanks GGG, you've now given me no reason to ever try and push further, which was actually going to be my plan this league.

Good job on creating more reasons for players to go play other games than to invest further into yours this patch. You created a lot of great hype, followed by several shots to your own foot, from the Black Friday mess to these patch notes. I truly loved this game and wanted to continue loving it and treating it as my main game, but you really, really make it hard to remain a fan GGG, unless we're extremely, extremely patient or a masochist.

Guess it's also a good thing Dauntless has a patch coming out same day as Abyss starts, so I'll have something better to do with my time when I'm getting DC'd on every area transition and portal like the last two leagues and both races.

Stellar freaking job.

you need to realize that many ppl complaining here are not just doing it because they're crybabies or pessimistic shut ins, we all love arpgs with a passion and it hurts to see a game with so much potential turn a blind eye to one side of the community. if you want to make good game, stop being kind to everyone and create mechanics that sort of helps most of the community by making a middle ground. By starting a patch note saying "we are not afraid to do blah blah.." and going with a title named PATH OF NERFS doesn't look too good, i hope you have already understood that by reading all these 130+ pages of negative reactions. Try to talk to more ppl if you are planning on taking advises from players, NOT JUST REDDIT, the ES nerf in 3.0 were very acceptable becausehalf of the build in the game didn't make use of ES. And even if you cut out the power nerf, is there truly any reason behind nerfing Rise of Phoenix or MoM? if you want cut down clear speed meta why would you nerf a shield that doesn't do any good in the game except one single build, which might come to you as a surprise, many people hates the running simulator build. please justify your reasonings behind the nerfs by a big order forum post or a YT vid. most people don't play Poe to feel proud, they come here to have fun play a game like any other.

P.S i hope you don't turn a blind eye to all this negative reaction s and try to understand what;'s truly wrong happening here

Maby is not much for some but i have 1500 hours gameplay.
In all those leagues my highest char is level 97 i think. In the last run events i saw too many level 100 in 2 days. Even without sleep is impossible for me at least.
So something is wrong here. No idea how they do it but i think this is what ggg start looking for and not nerf the xp that is already impossible for the most of player base to catch.
As far as the nerfs i dont care much. Not until the full patch notes comes to see the buffs and the new staff anyway.
It is nice for me to throw away even something that never dies and check something new all the time. I have faith in GGG . Its proved that they hear the player base all that time.
I wish all of you to have fun in the next league.

How many of the people that complain here about nerfs made their own builds and cleared end-game?

GREAT. now I wont play rf, then I will again later.... just a waste of time

I think that are "BOTs" running PoE and these Nerfs came to try to kill them! Not officially of course.

As many players have said: It's nearly impossible to reach level 100 in 2 days.

Good ridance bots and GGG!

Ugh.

Seriously what's with the agenda to apply so many broad nerfs to seemingly anything that makes the player feel powerful. The fact that something makes a character feel really strong isn't a bad thing... maybe buff 90% of the crap uniques or skills to be in line with the more powerful ones and then balance by rarity/exclusivity instead.

Nerfing from the top down over, and over, and over is just crippling any sense of power in this game for most builds. You keep shaving layers off the top and soon all we'll be left with is a two inch fucking stump :(

LMAO Standing ovation! Bravo!!
