Not mad. The powercreep was already at its maximum and we are at early access.
you need to nerf critical weakness/especially eye of winter's crit weakness
or else every build is going to be crit with absurd multi, like poe1

Making everything significantly more annoying for players does not equal fun. In fact, I don't see anything in the patch notes at all here that makes the game seem more fun than before - quite the opposite. Easy pass on playing PoE 2 any time in the near future.


This. Where's the entertainment part of the entertainment product?
Sadly the build i was playing and was quite sure will meybe get a mild nerf if any got absolutely decimated. I dont think that this would ever be viable option.

I was playing Decompose Pathfinder, the build was strong, but had a lot of downsides, so it seemed ok. With a lot of investment i got it to 3M dps and with ridiculous investment to 10M DPS and it always has the flaw of being slow in moving around. So theres the balance. The build relies on sacrificing high HP minions and using decompose on them to initiate poison cloud.

But as i read the notes this is what is changed:

1. Minion life increase is less at higher gem levels
2. Meat shield support gem does not increase minion life anymore (used to be 50%)
3. Skeletal Brute skill quality does not increase the life anymore (used to be 20%)
4. Decompose damage is now 19,5% and was 39,5% (it is halved)
5. Decompose can now have only 6 clouds at once (didnt have limit before)
6. Decompose cloud radius increases 20-80% per sec down from 50% - 200%
7. Sacrifice - minions revive 60% slower, used to be 30%
8. Half of the jewel slots are removed from the tree, most of the damage for the build came from ailment and poison magnitude jewels.

To sum it up, there are nerfs on top of nerfs for a build what was not exactly in the broken category.

Ah and along with, gas arrow and gas grenades also got the axe. Last I checked those were far from being broken skills.

At the same time, stat stacker gemling was maybe toned down 50% of its state, which was completely broken.

You are some noob, so I don't care about your bad takes.

SSF is an entirely different playstyle, which I am not interested in PoE 2.

And saying that fast build does not impact the economy proves you have no idea what you are talking about. How the fuck you expect a minion build to compete with my attribute stacker with magic find that clears the whole map in one minute?

Didn't you see people clear one map in under a minute while getting like a dozen divines?

Stop talking about shit you don't understand.


so you are interested in a playstyle which involves purchasing things with no effort from your part? if you want to generate more currency you got to change something

not all builds can clear equally fast, and you can't expect GGG to balance things around how they impact the economy (or how you perceive that they impact the economy)

some builds will inevitably be substantailly stronger than others, if you have a problem with this then this ain't your game

you will never be able to "catch up" with the economy unless you play the strongest build for 16+ hours a day, just look at how many people own a temporalis


Maybe admit that you made a stupid take first?
"Fast builds don't impact economy."
What a freaking joke.

I want less of a difference between the average and the strongest build.

Can you comprehend that builds can be 10 times the power or 1000 times the power and one scenario is obviously better for the players?

Again, you behave like everything is binary. It's either there or not. What is wrong with you? You can have things in between. I can be a little behind in the economy or entirely out of the economy.
