player number decrease speedrun, well done

You guys are joking? What’s the point of this feedback. You completly messed up monk ascendancy, 15 passives and 5 skills and no response in term of this? 70h to trash! You don’t respect your players!

SteamDB says otherwise. The number of players remained stable throughout the week.


In my opinion, GGG should give free respec, but I also think that PoE2 players don't know what "early access" means. Here's help for some of you: "...early access is a way for consumers to purchase and play a game before it's FULLY released. Early access games are often UNFINISHED, BUGGY, and UNPOLISHED, but players can help SHAPE THE FINAL VERSION by providing feedback and suggestions...".


The game was released in early access exactly 1 WEEK ago. CALM DOWN, play other builds, give feedback and stop being crybabies. :)

I was playing Cast on Freeze too. It was annoying having it nerfed, but, like, it's not even 10 points. I just took a respec to remove the energy/meta nodes from my tree and went back to playing cold spells. I don't get this whole "MY CHARACTER IS BRICKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" spam. If you really can't afford a respec of 10 points, you must be high enough level for it to be expensive. So go grind out some campaign maps for gold for 30 minutes and there's your respec. Stop crying, damn

cuz now they cant nuke the map with 5 comets in 1 button press lmao and now there's some challenge in the game (CRINGE)
how can you not believe a guy who says he PLANNED this EXACT build even before the game came out? yeah that sounds kinda suspicious, but thats the TRUTH!! he really went and planned before the release the same exact build (but never googled anything also) that was forced on youtube after the release with "THE MOST BROKEN IMBA BUILD ATM!!! BLAST THE MAP" thumbnail

You're so ignorant to how it actually played, embellishing to a ridiculous agree because your own OP class hasn't been nerfed to the ground yet. It was middling at best compared to other classes listed above, required tons of gear and mana regen, and would only call one comet down a pack. There is also no alternate for sorcs aside from specific spark build that's way stronger than freeze sorc, and it requires expensive gear (because it's now the only viable alternate).

These fantasies you make in your head are hilarious, though.

yeah sure keep crying and santa will un-nerf your build back lmao
if my build gets nerfed i will just make another one its not that hard its a GAME

Player numbers have been pretty much steady 200k low - 450k high on steam.
I think we will see the real drop when people reach the endgame.

Once they see that the content streamers and actually good players are doing, content that most average players wont ever reach in games current state because of the punishment of failing a map (-15%xp/death, and only one death to try a map), the complaints will start to flow in.

Low level maps barely give you any loot or xp if you over level them, and people will hit the wall around t7-8 maps. Most of the "own made" builds will hit the wall around that time, and at that point the lack of actual endgame viable builds will come eminent.

As insane as it sounds, the acts and early maps are actually the best part of the game. Late game needs a lot of more balancing.

So much crying. I was playing CoF. Was ready to do my 3rd ascendancy because I felt so strong when I came up with my CoF version of my build. I come back after not playing a couple days and everything is so nerfed. Instead of getting on forums to cry I looked at ways to make it work. It actually now works just like before. The difference is that I wasn't doing it with 3 support gems, no quality, no real tree investment, and no energy support. If you read this and don't feel excited to try and find a way to make your build work then maybe this is not the game for you. That being said, I am a monk and did use the ascendancy to make it work although it still works acceptably without. And yes it did feel shitty without any investment as it should. A very tiny buff would be acceptable but any more than that would be troll in the long run. What they need to do is make the waystones that the npc sells way more random and scale with level.

Edit: Oh and yeah I completed the third ascendancy on CoF build post nerf. It's so strong still in 10+ maps.

Any suggestions on what Sorcerer should do to make Cast on X work? Because I am feeling completely lost after the nerf.

I will preface this by saying that I am complete PoE noob and I am still learning the game. Cast on X hurt a lot because it seemed like natural progression on Sorceress build.

All tier 2 spirit gems for Sorceress are Cast on X variety. So it just felt natural to pick the one for which element you use the most and then try to get the most out of it.

After the nerf I now have to wait for Tier 3 spirit gems to make something decent for endgame. I am not sure if I will even get there considering how abyssmal map clearing feels with sorc.

I just feel like mid game for the class I picked was absolutely killed and I genuinelly don't know what options I have available to progress anymore. I deleted my level 48 Sorc because I had no gold to respec with and now I am starting fresh again.

Though I am not sure what to build towards anymore. This killed a lot of excitement for the game to me, but I understand it is early access. I also understand that we are nearing holiday season and any buffs or changes to the nerfs likely will take time and consideration for dev team to make.

I will remain hopeful for future of Sorceress, but until then any advice would be helpful.

fk u guys wheres refund?

After your destroyed CoF/CoC I chose to wait and see if you're going to respond to the overwhelming feedback, but at this point I see that my sorc really goes to the trash bin. Good job with the "balancing".

Before I start new character and put 40 hours into it, could you please let me know which one do you plan to nuke into the oblivion next? Thank you

Why would you reroll after *one* meta gem nerf? There are tons of other viable sorc builds that do just as well OR better than COF that require little to no change in passive tree.

I’m speechless.
What the hell are they waiting for to give free respecs or price reductions?
