Upcoming News Schedule

The 5 manifestos should be:

Archnemesis

Loot

Gear progression and league mechanics

Crafting

Damage spikes and monster damage conversion

Surprised no discussion of map mods.

So many casual players are running maps out of their depth and it's because of map mods and Wrath of the Cosmos (which I assume is getting deleted). They don't have the detailed POE mechanical knowledge to recognise "of rust" as being more dangerous than "-% max resistances" for most characters, for example.

two things to address

Item drops and Item progression in the campaign and atlas:
feels bad, either you get nothing, or the game gives you stupidly good stuff. This all or nothing state really bites, makes a lot of players quit.

Skill power relative to other skills:
Pretty simple, GGG make most skills as good as each other. Each one filling a mechanical niche. My favorite example of the nonsense in the current game is that Spectral throw/cylcone completely destroys viper/pestilent strike for applying poisons, doing damage with poisons, survival, and filling up plague bearer.

Just an example, but it is strange that a skill that is designed to poison enemies is so much worse than a skill that just multihits.

I have no solutions.

Don't ruin altars it's the only thing that still makes this game somewhat playable no matter how bad the base game has become with Archnemesis. If that changes there is no reason to play the game anymore.

Good luck GGG, you’ll need it. The hype train has yet to recover from its crash.

uh oh I am scared....I can see them removing total ailment immunity and instead making diminishing returns on ailment reduced effect with a hard cap.

I can see them nerfing curses to the ground, and removing curse on hit implicits and explicits on gear.

And then I can see them essentially sending altars the way of harvest...trash.

I can see many of us save for Diablo 4 this next April lol

That's the reason it's getting killed player can't a reasonable amount of loot it need to be shit except when you get a loot goblin.

Jewels : cannot be ____ implicit please

Curses: limit number of curses that can be applied, or more curse immunity resources

Eldritch Altar : Let us recoom with em, make em work like essences and use some remnant of corruption type currency on them.

AN : LET IT DIE, or nerf it, steel infused is broke. Might as well read "YOU DIE NOW". These monsters do more than bosses, why?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, let us league players have fun! Standard can suffer, we shouldn't be forced to only use fractured/essence crafted gear in league.

This league brought snail speed, a bunch of "Is it even worth it's?", recooms gave us the opportunity to RIP and move on. Now it's let me have anuerism trying to contemplate whether or not anything's worth doing. Everything came to a halt this league.

Everything felt bad except character progression. That's the only thing that somewhat felt good about this league. Still think we sacrifice too much for character diversity. Made 7 Juggs this league and all their trees were practically the same.

Bring back sentinel but in the form of a Mercenary that you bring with, has it's own tree/equipment and is always active unless it dies. Resurrect it with a divine orb, or wait x amount of time for it to resurrect.

Make exalted orbs up a tier with the risk of lowering a tier.

Next league has got to bring fun to the table, this league brought nothing but misery and just feeling bad. It's depressing playing this league and quite frankly traumatizing. I might not ever play another ARPG because of the scars this league brought. It feels so bad I might have to see about getting prescribed anti-depressants because the dopamine is so low. A game should not have that kind of effect on a player.

A game should be fun, entertaining, challenging, and bring people together. There's fun to be had ripping a hc character, but it's gotta be justified by something other than a broken mechanic.

PoE feels bad, please make it feel good to play and make that a top priority.

NO MORE NO FUN ALLOWED! I swear if next league is a bust I'm out for good.

the announcement of the announcement of the announcement of the announcement..


as long the loot goblin system is a thing in your game forget it.

also, please do something about deli encounters wanting to crash the game when you're loading an instance. It lags so hard whenever 1 pops up and 1 of the reasons why I don't play it. I don't have a bad gaming machine.
