Damn, I bought Atziri's Acuity yesterday for the first time and the price has already dropped to half of what I paid for it thanks to this nerf. Feels good. The build I was making also completely falls apart now, great.
In loving memory of Scold's Breath. You will be missed but never forgotten. Path of Exile is not the same without you.

Yet another pointless penalty for levelling.
Overall 120% more xp needed from 95 to 100, with the damn death penalty still in place.
Yup, players just got f*cked because of the speed clear meta teams that will *still* make it to 100 in a week. The rest of us are just f*cked off.
Patch Notes 3.15:
Fixed a bug where players believed the game was playable. This has been corrected and made retroactive.
Patch Notes 3.19:
Fixed a bug where players adapted to 3.15. This bug cannot be corrected, so we have implemented a 90% reduction in item access as a punishment. Last edited by BlaqWolf on Dec 4, 2017, 9:09:55 PM

It doesnt matter to any one of these devs or Chris or anyone at GGG, what the majority of players want. You can bitch , cry and complain all you want , but they care about 1 thing. Players not making to 100. 100 means " I beat the game ,now I'm going to go find something else to play."
Or, with this changes, means that the dream to 100 is over, many will just reach 90-93 like Mathil, re-roll maybe 1 or 2 times and gtfo the league.
Now Watch those Who reached 100 So easily before these patches start saying "Oh you got to work hard like we did to get there!" Well guess what We have to work harder now! 10% to 40% harder!

Right but you dont need 100% to begin with. RF is easily sustained long before that, im unkillable at lvl 32 with tons of regen nodes left. Perhaps Im missing something but even with 3% less we are still going to regen to full instantly.
And why i dont see this @instant regen ultra tanky insane dmg and sustain RF build@ character in your profile? ) Maybe cuz RF even now, without nerf, acually not even close to best builds in game?
Sh*t, sorry dude, i'm just so salty with this nerf, planned to start leagues with first try rf char.. And what now..
try this. no rotp required. tanky af. 6link not required. gull can be replaced with volls vision if its too expensive (I had a volls with enfeeble effect enchant, cant find in standard mess since the merge). tree fits inspired learning for a mini-HH effect (although mini HH not the best for RF)

Reigning in the extreme BS like this will allow GGG to nerf spike damage and make other functional buffs to players - which we're already seeing via volatile and reflect changes.

The real issue with you, GGG, and all the nerf defenders is control and status quo defense.
It's class mobility that you can't stand. It's the idea of the top tier in any context being supplanted terrifies you.

Every debate is the same debate.
You just think you'll be 0.01% some day.
"We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off." ~Tyler Durden
You'e clearly still a believer.
The debate is always between the people still mentally plonked in front of that TV and the people that aren't.
No, uh, I'm a straight up mid-20's communist irl, you're just a childish dipshit who's bad at a video game and mad that his hand isn't being held by broken mechanics anymore.
I'm not a fan of some of GGG's business practices - particularly the exploitative loot boxes and skinner box mechanics, but I enjoy the gameplay, so I play.
The reason for the changes is precisely to supplant the top tier builds with fresh new stuff; this reactionary whining only betrays people who have no idea how the game actually works.

I understand where these changes are coming from and could expect in general most of them.
I just hope the new skills are good enough people totally forget, these types of changes always feel really bad for those people invested in those builds.
I'm not sure on the xp stuff but i guess you have to offset the new map mods, i hope it works out to the same xp if not more tbh , people were already picking the least painful map possible to just grind that stuff out.
Whatever army I have, I'll lead against them...
...until I've won or I'm dead.

I don't think the "Vaal Pact" nerf was needed. Basically this means to me that if you fight a boss that will deal 95% of your life without additional damage mods and critical strikes, you basically will just die now. You also moved it into a more convenient location on the tree as well for players. You could've put it up by "Ghost Reaver" to make it more of a pain to get for people. But that is only my opinion on the subject. Build and item nerfs will always happen.

My concerns are continuosly being buried by people who have $0 - $50 supporter packs and highest characters at level 90 who have only been playing for ~2years so i will have to repost. I WANT AN ANSWER GGG.
chris why do you keep nerfing things? do you just want us to play vanilla sunder builds for the rest of our lives? seems like such a waste considering how much potential the game has for more creative builds. CAN WE HAVE CAST ON CRIT BACK ALREADY? why does it matter if certain builds are OP in a game that is mostly just gonna be played as single player or co-op anyway?? It's not like PVP is a real thing, nobody cares!
Meanwhile we still have builds like traps and mine builds running rampant and one shotting end-game content like atziri, shaper, and uber izario. how is this fair??? i've been supporting this game since closed beta (look at my supporter packs) and i only end up playing less and less patch after patch simply because there just aren't enough fun builds for me to try anymore
why???? back then when i played HC i would roll 10-15 builds each league. now i can barely justifying rerolling more than 1 character because nothing interests me anymore. your NEW content is made obsolete becausee you're changing and forcing the meta too much. you guys need to relax on the nerfing. this game should allow players the freedom to play and create what they want. PLUS, most of these things being nerfed are mostly high-end stuff that majority of players won't be able to achieve anyway, or takes a lot of time/currency investment in order to achieve. I understand nerfing broken and cheap builds but nerfing items like acuity or old builds like CoC just doesnt make any sense to me when there are builds that currently exist that take low currency and time investment to achieve power levels even higher than old CoC (eg. GC mines).
im sorry but if this continues i dont think i can continue to support this game. I am at a point where i am starting to regret the thousands of dollars $$$ i've thrown at you guys because the game just isnt as fun anymore.
P.S. i am fine with the exp nerf, never cared about 100 and 100 should have never been so easy anyways
I would like to hear an answer from GGG for this post as well, since my line of tought is the same.
GGG can we get an answer for this?
Think this is a good and solid question, explained in an adult and serious way. I would like to see GGG answer it in the same manner, please.
