We know that, we know what happened to spark sorc yet people now become extremely attached to lightning spear which we know for a fact that will be nerfed the ground in 0.3 like it deserves.

So even though this is an incredibly predictable situation, I can guarantee you there will be people SCREAMING about how they ruined poe2 because they cant clear entire screens anymore just like they were SCREAMING when ele sorc got nerfed.

This is a very predictable cycle yet instead of adapting to the poe2 vision and start playing normal average builds, they only play the most broken meta build and then complain about lack of build diversity.

There's plenty of builds to try, you can make your own too, you cannot complain about lack of diversity in a game like poe2 with so many choices and combinations because YOU CHOOSE to ignore everything and just play the most op build streamers told you is meta.


Cry more.

Blame GGG because they made game punishing for everything except screen clearing builds.

GGG made game where you have 40 mobs instantly jumping on you, regardless of how far they were when you engaged them.

GGG made game with non existent loot . No one wants to clear map for 20 minutes just to be rewarded with nothing.

GGG made game with most expensive items being locked behind insane systems , so playing screen clearing specs is the only option.

GGG made ascendancy trials hard enough as it is , imagine doing them with underperforming class/spec.

GGG made game with 1 life per map.

GGG made game with random instant oneshots out of nowhere , by white mobs.

GGG made game where one class attacks 10x in 1 second.

GGG made game where another class attacks 1x in 5 seconds.

GGG made dodge roll based ARPG .

GGG made game where they nerfed everyone's damage by 70% without even trying to balance stuff in order to compensate for damage loss. Nah , they just went '' cut Ice Monk's dps by 80% that's about it''

Its safe to say GGG has no clue what they are doing and PoE2 proves it.

But its ok. Titan Quest 2 is coming soon, then D4 expansion...lots of stuff to look forward to.


PoE 1 Vete...ehm zoomer detected :-D
I bet you played stupid Herald Monk 0.1 and you play LS right now.

Jumped the streamers hate train, right buddy?
Haha, some of them don't need to rage at the 0.3 nerf, some of them like this guy is raging now already :-D

Nerf the stupid LS!

He is mad because his lightning sorc and gemling got nerfed , and they were 10x stronger than LS Huntress.
what does it matter to your build or game if some one is clearing maps quicker than yourself?
They could of just nerffed loot depending on the speed you clear a map for example etc etc.
It's not really got anything to do with "metaslaves" when the majority of players use the same skill.

Let me give you my experience, I played a mace warrior to 90 this league. But when I tried to do my 4th acendancy with skills that require me to literally stand in place for a full two uninterrupted seconds to do mediocre damage with a 500 phys damage weapon that has like a 500 strength requirement to equip, I decided it was time for a change.

Now I have a 70 phys damage spear that has like a 100 dex requirement and the entire screen explodes instantly at the tap of a button. Did my 4th acendancy first try easy while still rocking all 3-links. I can attack from range and while moving. And I'm much tankier even lol.

The point is, playing this game is a constant "okay, this thing doesn't work, like at all, let me try something else" and then "okay now *this* feels good!"

If thy kill LS we'll just use the next best thing. Or quit if the only option is standing still for 2 full seconds (make that 5+ with temporal chains or bubble) and having to rely on armour.
The vast majority of players will always take the path of least resistance, it's nothing new and also present in poe1, d4, le and/or any other arpg in existence.

Let them play the way they want and you do you. It's very simple.
I think what people have to remember is that this was not a new league
it was just the introduction of a new class and new weapon and in order for those to be seen as effective they had to make an overly powerfull skill ( lightning spear ). In 0.1.0 it was pillar of the cage god as the weapon and lighting flurry and charged staff as the overly powerfull skills. im sure in the lext version there will be a new weapon or class to make people happy.
If you hadnt noticed this thread should be called sarcasm, negative replies are not the thing here. Positivity through negativity is the way to go.
It will be nice to see the MetaCucks furious once again on LS nerf. Maybe they will finally give up and go back to poe1

I think they will be as upset as you for having a probably bad time refusing to play a fun build.
