Path of Exile: Necropolis Teasers

As a console player, the LMB change has no effect on me, so it's pure upside... but for all the PC players, it's a real WTF moment. Now they need an extra gem socket (w/link), AND worse cooldown AND worse mana cost? And the only thing they get in exchange is that they can use it with multiple skills?

Other than creating more true zero button builds, I'm pretty sure most players will hate this change.

thanks for automating my anti3.24hype

what a joke

NO support pack for you this time GGG

Please no LMB change. This is just wrong.

i like divination card changes, its time to farm bosses again.

Today's teaser title is so unethically misleading. Should have just read:

"We have taken away the ability to use instant skills on left mouse button and given players a consolation which comes at a cost of a gem slot and longer cool down on skills".

Feels like GGG trying to homogenize the PC consol experience which kinda sucks. Just make controller customization better. There have been occasions where I tried using controller because of RSI but it just feels so bad compared to keyboard.

poe players are so lazy sometimes just use one of the 14 slots and change the keybind, buy a mouse with more buttons, use space to guards/warcry

yah gotta add my voice to the LMB removal. One of my favorite builds ever was mines. I feel like detonate easy bind is kind of... essential. Please consider a different solution. (the gems themselves feel fine, some other kind of console option seems required.)

My hype for a league has never done a 180 faster. This change is complete garbage and to pack such a massive change into such a misleading video title is pretty gross GGG.

Why not use the same menu that has "Always Attack without Moving"?

It's right there, just add another box that people can click on or not.

You have "Molten Shell" on your hotbar? Click on it and toggle "Auto-cast on Cooldown". Simple. Done.

No need to lose a socket. No need to pay more mana. No need to have a longer cooldown.

That's an actual QoL update... this is just a major nerf in disguise. At least be upfront about it.

Damn this forum needs a like button! This guy gets it!

Typical GG - CFCS (change for change's sake). "We came up with an ill-conceived solution, now we just need to find a problem that we can apply it to".

Meanwhile, Last Epoch (while certainly not perfect) shows us what genuine QoL applications are for their players. Want the crafting materials in your vicinity? Just click on one and it will hoover everything up. Inventory getting a bit full? Just click on the crafting materials and it will automatically sort into your stash. It's nice to see a company that cares about its players and doesn't just view them as a slot machine addict to be milked.

I was hopeful that with PoE 2 so close that GG would stop trying to force PoE 1 into the same mould and leave it well enough alone. Alas, it wasn't to be.
