Neither over or under, just whelmed.

Settlers gold grind for tats and runes is basically mandatory.

What’s the frequency of these pinnacle enabling NPCs in maps, same as nameless seer/ 1 in 500? Another LuckOrSuck mechanic.

Yet another insidious crafting currency grind. What’s the drop rate for the currency, same as veiled orb?

Sentinel 2.0, yay, 3 more key binds I won’t remember to hit or won’t use on the exact correct pack in a map.

Mercs? So, LuckOrSuck to find a decent one. How much gold(since farms are chewing all our gold)? Max kevel of 80/81(T16/T17 monster level) as I guess they’ll mirror monster level. They’ll be as durable as wet toilet paper (Brass Dome Merc League).

Decent QoL changes.
Yay another league, just too bad it’s Settlers again with a little fluff.

Not sure I’m going to league start knowing it will take 2 weeks to make mercs useful, fix wretched drops, fix encounter scarceness, and make it somewhat passable.

league hasn't even started and you're already complaining dawg just quit the game honestly

By the way, Nameless Seer actually shows up on about every 20th map, not every 500th

We all knew that no matter what they did, people would complain and hate on it without even trying anything.

Been saying it for months, the same people hating on GGG for poe2 were just the same people that hated every league reveal and drove Bex and Chris away. The same people that complained that affliction was too hard and unrewarding at first, then complained that now it was too fomo, just like what will happen here.

Some of you people have an allergy to being happy, and it would actually be funny to see if it weren't so on the nose every time.

We still have kingsmarch workers and wages. yay...

I'll resist the FOMO of shipments and mappers np, if people like it I have no issues tho it feels bad to skip a mechanic but it is what it is.

No worse than the blissfully ignorant who’d still be happy no matter what they're served

Agreed, altho i must say i was quite happy especially so since they left my favorite build alone, or so i thought.
Now they've sneakily added new notes killing it completley instead.

Just nerf the gems damage by 30-50% if damage is the issue. Let it still be a playable skill. Now it's just deleted instead.
My build had 30mil dps with very good gear @lvl98 which okay is maybe a bit much but they could just halve its damage and it'll still be fun to play just less good for bossing.

So yea now i'm not so happy anymore. I'll still play since i had golemancer as 2nd idea. But it did sour me that my favorite build and first pick got deleted several hour after the patch notes had went out.

im hyped!

I'm a bit underwhelmed, but nothing drastic.

I was looking forward to finally play some PoE without having to think about paying workers, micromanaging workers and delegating. What do we get? Even more workers (Mercenaries) we have to pay a micromanage.

Fine, I guess.

The league is definitely underwhelming, but the expansion might be alright. I'll give it a go. But I swear, if I get the slightest feeling of "I'm having to add this/do this to my maps to keep up with the gold costs", be that for sailors, farmers, mappers or mercenaries, I'm probably out of here. That is a naggin' feeling I really don't need when I'm sitting down for some relaxing escape from real life.
