new 16.5 maps (memory strands)
i have to say that they are a really good mix
- T17 bs mods - T16 drops in short - i consider them a failure :/ and so far cannot match the reality with pre-release design explanations the bosses, mechanic etc - are ~fine, albeit i do not see it as something worth adding to the game long run, POE is bloated as is. big plus for no phases (with bosses ive faced so far) but as someone who loathed some of T17 mods i find it deflating to see them expanded on rather than removed. some of them are so f.. bad that you just re-roll them (sure, there are some builds that dont need to - yada yada yada, i know, we all should play the same build, gotya) you roll them, accept that maven will interfere and drenching orbs fill f.. with you while you run from petrification statues and what you get? T16 drops with occasional zana item (powerful, albeit - again - superficial stuff) as long as T17 keep their 'more' loot multiplier and produce ~4 times the gold/hour this addition changed nothing big + for T16.5 being affected by atlas/scarabs and stuff. without it i think people would boss rush bosses ignoring the maps completely i dont know the drop rates but so far bosses dropped me a stack of zana items (T7 bases with 16 'power'..., you know the stuff) im sure the drop rate of the good stuff is abysmal and next patch we get 'ubers' of this content in all - i like the balance changes this patch, the QoL (albeit some of them were held hostage for long), but this T16.5 stuff i just do not get, i must be missing something or it is just bad (oh and 'map boss is accompanied by synthesised boss' does not work) Last bumped on Jun 15, 2025, 9:39:14 AM

I'm curious how you've managed to make it to endgame without a single 40/40 challenge completed.

Ahh, yeah...
That's my bad. I totally spaced on the expansion also affecting Standard. Well, I was curious when these posts were going to show up. I was thinking week 2 at the latest. I'm still waiting on the final word about Party Play. I'm not playing this trash heap until they fix it. |
