0.2.0d Hotfix

Are you guys able to take a look at Stun stats not showing in the Character sheet, this is becoming a more and more important stat especially for melee and it would be great to see where we stand build wise.i realised this after struggling to decide on the stun threshold node for Smith of Kitava.

Thankyou

It’s a shame that it seems John is intent on completely destroying his own game. So defensive during a typical Q&A. Bad look. Mark, on the other hand, seems to understand what the community wants. Mark should be given the helm. I deeply regret wasting money on this early access. One of the worst purchases in my life.

Since specters and Companions seem to be a big part of this update can we get some fixes for the Specter that you can bind that literally do nothing? More variety or having them work as they should feels kind of crucial. The spirit costs are very high until mid/late game with enough spent on gear and nodes which is another issue. Maybe if its going to be this way we could get a few companion nodes and dex available to the witch class as an alternative. Or some unique items focused on specters like poe 1 for the early game.

Also a more detailed info tab for specters or companions would be nice or temporary links embedded going to a third party for info on the mob. A lot of new or casual players might not even know about third party sites for mob info so this could help.

My take on playing so far:

So far playing spectre there are hundreds of people testing them out but we can only find 1 useable one out of 400+, still janky and bad. Glitchy wisp form where they dont respawn and terrible ai for attacking and pathing. Was unplayable league start.

New ascendancies - forget to add one on launch of game.

Changed map layouts that had pointless areas that were not in game yet. Yes good update but why is it after we are pissed off?...add more checkpoints, I'm sure running around this huge area is more fun if you can respawn closer to the wrong area you were in anyway.

Buffed damage during campaign and nerfed overturned hp campaign...What about end game or fixing vital issues with the minions in the first place?

These updates are all good but this could/should of been done prior and much more needs to be done.

Colossal fumble on the goal line, listen to your audience more prior to release. The player retention is the lowest i have ever seen from any league POE1 - POE2. It feels like your not even trying and only fix something when we are completely fed up. I feel bad for new players because this game will eventually be good, but now is not that time.

I am getting disconnected every 5-10 minutes since Sunday, what the fuck? It's not just me either, so many people on EU/Asia servers are reporting the same thing. Why are we adjusting some spear damage when so many people simply can't play the game lmao

Let's be honest here. GGG lacks some empathy while making difficulty of new things. This is the only thing I like in Diablo 3 and 4. You have the choice to up the difficulty when you feel the game is too easy, but you are not forced to from the beginning, you can still play as a casual who only play for a few hours a day. They are not nerfing things rather making the game harder by a player's choice. But in Poe, they are nerfing the player and boosting the monster at the same time. People responsible for so much bad changes in 0.2 should be fired from GGG and replaced by someone who encourage fun aspects in game and not nerfing it because it's more fun than intended. I was so hyped but I'm just a casual who wants to play the game and have fun, not spend 12 hours in game every day to be able to play at least at some level and compete with the endgame stuff.

Fix the Problems with Jungle Ruins that you can not collect Waypoint/Checkpoint there without game is closing

Have this Problem now for 24 hours, haden´t it before last hotfix, changes

100% Fun runs to 0% in one hotfix

Good Job GGG

I'm experiencing a recurring issue where the game crashes whenever I try to open or load a character, especially if there is even a slight delay or slow loading time. This makes the game completely unplayable, as I can't get past the initial character load screen.

It seems like the crash is triggered when the game struggles or takes a bit longer than usual to load my character data. Instead of waiting or handling the delay gracefully, the game just crashes outrig

And drop rates still suck no exalted orbs or any decent loot. Can we please turn this back up just a tad

"At higher tiers of Maps, the amount of Waystone chance increase required to guarantee Map drops from Final Rares or Map Bosses is now lower. You now need less Waystone chance to ensure a Map drops from these conditions at Tier12+ Maps, notably changing at Tier14+. This results in easier sustain at the top tiers of Endgame."

Are you actually f'ing serious right now. Do you know what the word guaranteed means. Its not a dice roll or where you must meet a requirement. Its GUARANTEED. This is exactly why people are STILL not getting waystones. How can you possibly be this incompetent.

I dont even know how else to explain this. You had a game where we could clear maps, dozens of them and do well, never die and yet never ever ever ever receive a waystone of the right tier. Effectively erasing all progress the players make despite doing well. You are punishing them for doing well. What is your obsession with these stupid fÜcking waystones. They were stupid from day 1... why are they here. They make NO SENSE.

Just let us decide the tier we want to run up to the highest we have unlocked. You are now making patch work for something that never needed to be this complicated. The whole idea of boosting waystones while making maps an unenjoyable mess with absurd affixes does not make a great end game.

If you are determined to keep this randomization on top of randomization on top of randomization on top of randomization, at least let us use currency direct on the map itself and get rid of these ridiculous waystones. You created a problem and now sell us a tab for the mess you made.
