Game Balance in Path of Exile: Ultimatum
I really think the nerfs are great, and that's my personnal opinion.
When you think about it, PoE2 seems to be really based off a slower and harder pace. Makes you feel like you actually need skills to kill enemies instead of a "ONE-HIT 25M DPS ULTRA-TANK 75% BLOCK" build. I think slowly building us to appreciate a slower pace of the game without affecting too much the "core" of what PoE is is the best way to introduce PoE2 mechanics and pace in our brains. Then again, it's only my personnal opinion. Not everybody share ideas and love and you know what? That's fine. Everybody's different and will react differently. If you don't like the nerfs that's totally fine and you have the right to your own opinion and feelings, but I think that before saying "GGG hates us and all casual players", why don't we try the league, see how it feels and from there, give a final judgement based on our experience with said changes. I don't think GGG is there to make us hate them and stop playing the game, sure some of the people that will read the nerfs and changes might stop playing, but that's on them. Not playing the league because of something you "think" you don't like is not the best way to know if you actually like it. TL:DR Try the game cuties, see where it leads and if you don't like it, hey at least you tried it. In the end, you're playing a game, find something that makes you have fun since that's the whole point of gaming and if you can't, then leave. You're allowed to dislike things, just don't hate the devs. Give love, not hate. :) |

YES! Thank you for addressing the spell bow shenanigans. I could not stand the fact people were using bows and quivers as a spell caster. It made no sense from a fantasy standpoint. I like to stick to specific themes and the game should be that way too. Good job guys!

" What about bow CoC builds? KEKW |

" New player with x4 96+ characters.. interesting I think you will remain 100% unaffected |
|
"Also curious about this. I made sure to farm out a bunch of them in SSF before harvest is removed. Would suck if that work just gets deleted essentially. Not sure how items go "legacy" or if the mod just automatically converts to the changed state with the patch. | |
" yeah, this is such a big problem when somebody can actually do the content he PREFERS, right??? dead game
bring back 3.13 |

"some people don't even try to get challenges lol i have all the mtx i need so why should i go for challenges in stead having fun playing my way? and good for you that ur richer big whoop? i bet i have more fun trying out fun stuff instead only playing meta builds u probably didn't even make your self. also i stop caring about exp after like level 85 x'D and yes i have low life so what? maybe i don't care/need as much as you? could probably get level 96/98 if i would only play one toon the whole league and not having fun because of it becoming boring to me. also could be a lot richer if i didn't hate trading to much and yeah if i was poor like you irl i might go for more challenges to get em free crappy mtx x'D weird flex dude but whatever strokes ur ego right? "Now all that's left is for you getting on your knees."
if you know thanks me:) i'm dying to find out x'D | |
" PoE "balance" in a nutshell ... I will never forget what they did to full chaos conversion builds because poison was OP ... only to nerf poison 6 months later and never buff chaos conversion again. Voltaxic Spark R.I.P. never forgotten. |
