Archnemesis league was really fun, because you could choose and experiment. As it is now, it's really not fun to get your face blown off by certain combinations. In the league, you could clear the map, then come back and start the encounters. As it exists now, it's not fun to get to a point where you can't progress because the thing is immune to fire, and you get your face blown off trying to do damage to it. (Or immune to cold, etc.)

In short, getting your face eaten for 3x Scrolls of Wisdom is just not fun.
Archnem:
Archnemesis is still broken! Offensive modifiers are completely out of control.

I've FINALLY ran across a Solaris Touch, expecting that "big payout" only to be rewarded 6chaos and an exalted orb!! WTF! One of the more difficult battles, (for whatever GGG reasoning that this mob is harder than map bosses) just to be shit on.

Your loot pinata methodology is unacceptable and destroys the spirit of the game. Get your act together GGG. You game is NOT FUN with the Archnems.



Harvest:
FOUR harvest in a row where I received ZERO lifeforce from a single plot. With the outrageous costs of the harvest crafts, how do y'all expect someone to craft when ZERO lifeforce is dropped????? WHEN it does drop, the stacks are in such low quantity, it's a kick in the teeth. How and why do you consider this FUN?



FIX YOUR GAME:
FIX your game and please stop pushing the MTX Until you've addressed our concerns! The MTX pushing is downright disrespectful in these times. 100% of businesses that are going through a busy season(new leagues in your case) BROKEN MERCHANDISE, excessive load; are damned near guaranteed to be working overtime. Yet, GGG takes your broken launch weekend off and each weekend since! What kind of business ethic is this? Do you not see your game is in disarray? Do you not feel like our concerns need to be addressed and fixed?

STOP LEAVING US HANGING FFS!

We are making it so that Eldritch Exalted Orbs, Eldritch Chaos Orbs and Eldritch Orbs of Annulment will drop in lower area levels. We are also buffing their drop rate.


Still waiting on this!

Still waiting on buff for tainted too....
Last league i got mageblood, the squaire, build worth a lot, now after 2 weeks i cannot get a F 6-link cuz you decided to give us big middle finger with loot. Great job GGG. Your vision made the game so much more beautiful, deserted and void of life. Keep up the good work till every last player leaves this f sh**show.
I hope the same will happens with MTX purhase SO U WILL FINALLY SEE WHAT THE F U HAVE DONE.

The MTX team is separate from the devs. They don't fix bugs, so asking this is meaningless.
Please just get rid of AN. It is not fun, I have died a million times in maps and have no idea what happened. I can't level my character without navigating a million youtube videos and forums.

The loot goblins make casual players just want to give up. While you are sitting and contemplating things, the clock is ticking and the league will be mostly over if/when you get your act together.

It is incredibly obvious the game is a disaster right now, there are many posts/videos explaining why. Many people are just sitting and waiting to see if things will get fixed and are not playing until then. Eventually there won't be any time left in the league to make it worth playing.

That patch should be pushed through this week. They don't work on weekends. Be patient.
people said AN mods last league were hard and unrewarding so this league you decided to amp it up. CW is just doing what he wants and this will be the template for poe2 so D4 is coming up and the feedback from some of the beta testers have actually been positive. Good luck competing if you keep this up as you still have not balanced AN mods in 4 months.

AN mods should just be removed at this stage until its balanced properly and create a test realm and let people test and give feedback.

Reduce global drop rate by 25%. Raise valuable drops by 10%. Remove Arch mods until they make sense. I miss PoE in pre-2018 when it was fun and builds had true variety. It's gotten too convoluted. 9 layers of defense on top of blocking and spell blocking still being separate for some reason just means everyone wants the same 5/6 mods on items, cheapens the experience. Valuable mods are so far beyond other mods the balance is dead in the water. Even with a loot filter everything is garbage or worth an exalt which historically is over a hundred chaos. Take off the filter and the ground disappears. And that's playing in mostly solo games I can't imagine what groups are like.

Damage scaling is getting a bit funky and starting to feel like D3 with trillions of damage to kill monsters with trillions of life with life leech early soft-capped to like, 400 per second with your 4-7k life, just doesn't taste right.

I've been here since 2012, the game has always been challenging and that's fun. I call it a one-second game because that's how long it takes to die when you're not careful. Monsters with ridiculous defenses acting like damage sponges has its place but its been lost. I've never had all the best gear but could still do all the content pretty much. Not the fastest, not the most efficient, but the walls weren't so high. It's becoming play these builds or you're pounding your head into a wall.

Might even be time to remove cluster jewels or have some system where you can ONLY use cluster jewels. I came from years of D2, I know how min/maxing works and when it doesn't, regardless of skill or talent. Custom builds feel like they are falling to the wayside for overly optimized ultra specific builds which cheapens the fun of the game. I liked making random builds work if planned carefully. Now I just play wrong, apparently, just to use lesser sought after skills based on whatever odd choices were implemented most recently.

I truly recommend doing some long hard thinking about trying to combine 11 leagues at a time. Maybe do some rotations like back in the day with a combination of a few at a time. Clean up what already exists and make adjustments meaningful. This league has these 3-4 league mechanics, then the next league has those 3-4. I'm going to try this league but man the reviews are brutal and damning. I love this game. I hate hating it.
You know that linking park music called Numb??? All of the experience that POE provides feels like this music.
