0.1.0d Patch Notes

let me start by saying that i was never a big PoE1 fan, played a bit till like lvl 30 or so and decided the game wasnt for me.

but PoE2 was really being enjoyable, specially since i finally had some builds guides to follow as i am relatively a noob at PoE and their massive passive trees.

now after having put like 2 days and a half into my favorite class in this type of games, sorcerer, my character is totally unplayble just as i was about to finish act 3 cruel dificulty.

i have lost all motivation to play the game. paid early acess is one thing, i actually thought the game was playable and there wouldnt be this kind of nerfs this early on. with the game as it is, and the balancing they are doing, we basicly paid to test the game for them.

if this game needed so much balancing and tuning and testing (crashes everywhere) maybe it would have been good to have a free open beta to test all of this before you charged people money for the game.

if i could refund the game and the microtransactions i already did, i 100% would and i wouldnt touch this game until early acess is over.

i am disapointed to pay so i can test the game for them. this is GGG going the path of Blizzard, and i want none of it.

/rant over

REMOVE PATCH

Thanks for the quick patches guys!

Must be a lot of new people to games in general if some nerfs during Early Access in version 0.1 (lol) are going to cause so much raging.

Grow up. The way you guys talk to the devs is pathetic. These are human fucking beings.

Nope. The fact that it should have worked differently than just spam 10 comets a second doesn't mean it was nerfed harshly. You can still do stuff with that. Just need a different approach.

Tbh i took the gem, put elementals status chance with my max damage, and.... It does nothing at all.

So yeah, tell me how it work now, i will try it, but from tests, it dont seem to work at all lol.

Saying "it should worked differently" is fine, but offer a way or a solution ^^

There are ascendancies and classes that offer alot of energy buildup. Cast on X is just not for every class and ascendancy

PLEASE FIX THE FORWARD DAGGER ATACK FROM THAT BOSS IT HITS FOR LIKE 10K DAMAGE POST MIT

I just need to point out, in addition to my earlier frustrations.

Elemental invocation, which triggers from _ALL_ elemental ailments is better than Cast on __EFFECT__ by a factor of 20% to 33% now:


Cast on __EFFECT__ || Invocation
10 per freeze per power || 12 per freeze per power
2 per ignite per power || 3 per ignite per power
2 per shock per power || 3 per shock per power


Why is a UNIVERSAL TRIGGER GEM better than those that are specifically dedicated to that effect?

Hello to all developers, thank you for giving us the opportunity to discuss Path of Exile 2. The game is fantastic, and I would like to offer my suggestion regarding the character "RESPEC" system, which currently has a prohibitively high cost, essentially rendering characters unusable if mistakes are made.

Instead of using gold for respeccing, you could introduce a lengthy quest that rewards players with an item to perform the respec. This approach would likely increase player engagement and alleviate complaints about the high cost.

Thank you very much, and please continue your excellent work!

Nice patch, but "Cast on status" nerf was done too hastily, actually, it's not a "nerf", it's a "delete".

I'm not impacted, but i wanted to try it to see how it work, and... Hmmm, that's just plain useless right now, "cast on status" is in the same status as if you deleted it.

You should modify it again to make it at least playable, it really seem unfair for all the peoples who put hours and hours of cooking and theorycrafting to just dump it down the drain like that, maybe start by reducting initial effectiveness by 25% would have be more balance ?

I dont know how it looked before, but it feel like it has been nerfed by like 99.99% right now seeing how unplayable that is, i cant even think peoples played that before when i'm seeing the actual state of these gems lol

Nope. The fact that it should have worked differently than just spam 10 comets a second doesn't mean it was nerfed harshly. You can still do stuff with that. Just need a different approach.

I mean you obv show it to our face w/ ur badges, that ur balls deep in.

Yea so I should treat everyone because of money they can spend? Then you would be crybaby because you can't spend a dime in a game :)

So I haven't played in a week because I'm working extra for the season, and I'm pretty happy about it because you folks need to double the drop rate of support gems and halve or quarter the cost of respecing. After this you need to heavily consider free respecs.

And what about people that want to change their ascendancies? The response of "this is what you paid for" is not a smart angle to take.


I appreciate what you folks are doing here. You don't want the game to play itself at the endgame, you want it to be similar to the early game. So do I. I hate seeing the walk through the game and kill everything with no effort style. I understand that you saw the merc nerfs and they weren't really enough, but you have to respect people's time. This is not an invite only beta.

The game is a massive - often murderous - grind early on and you haven't nerfed the enemy damage a bit. If you are willing to make changes this sweeping, there is no excuse: over nerf the early areas and buff them back up if you want to. It's one shot central out there. You're going to nerf gas ignite and the Ranger. Most of us can already see that. And you should, but it needs to come with something good.
