Path of Exile: Keepers of the Flame Teasers

My concern since the release of the PoE2 beta is the slowly complete stopping of support for PoE1 by the dev team, and it shows. Although I also play PoE2, it is not as engaging as PoE1, which provides much more fun, and I strongly feel that it’s not the fault of PoE2’s early access but rather the general approach to skill gems.

If the person reading this don't understand why wisdom/portal scrolls exist in a game like this you are not allowed to complain about it. Just accept that they added the identify all thingi to save some clicks and move on.

Isn't that just outdated legacy stuff?

Yea, traditionally we have some but... It's not that convenient or engaging when you have to use/pick/buy all of them all of the time.

So any guesses on what the exchange range on stacked decks will be?

I think they start low, 2c:1deck early on.

But I'm guessing by week 3 they are 3c

Maybe even end up near 5c around end league.

But if a streamer gets a crazy clip this could all change.

Yes @ outdated.

It was based around old games where there was less to the game overall so having to worry about checking them, inventory space, having enough gold to afford them, etc etc. all tied into part of the game. Also lead to funny/scary "OH SHIT" when you're out and in a pinch.

Nowadays games are so far past needing such a low-tier layer of content. POE1 is quick to innovate, slow to catch-up. The "ASYNC TRADE" meme stuff is a good example. Games that run on mobile figured out how to have an AH w/ similar itemization many years ago but here we are so happy to finally get it, and on PC for heaven's sake.

TL:DR - Anyone who argues they are needed just wants to sound old and proud that they played diablo 1. I'm also old, but not so proud of it.

The only thing with QOL is that it is usually followed up with hidden nerfs to drop rates etc. Sure, we will need way less wisdom scrolls and stacked decks are easier to open, but I bet they use the chance to reduce drop rates of both. Possibly other currencies people generally sell for wisdom scrolls as well. Not going to be all doom about it all though I am a bit used to the "this is a buff" way of doing things. Reducing overall clicks seems like a decent tradeoff anyway.

Liking all the updates and looking forward to grinding for a month until the PoE2 update in Dec. Both game are looking very good and it's very good to see!!!

Yeah, why not. Take the RP from the RPG. We had a good run.

Yes wow someone finally sees this not only me ... They are talking about MASSIVE changes and massive content and all they added in last league were some useless bosses, bad implementation of memory shards and than you look at megabonk where one guy does more for the game alone in a week than whole studio does in 2 months ... If whole league will be just breach revamp i can 100% confirm that they dumped poe1 and for 3 months and 3 weeks from 4 month cycle they work on poe2 and are making just smoke screen for poe1 players not to be hated...

Yup. The way we do the atlas wasnt even changed like how it was previously. Literally doing the same thing for the past 3+ years. Personally, the Atlas needs a major shakeup and not these itty-bitty QoL. I guess we shall see in a couple of days but Im not convinced as Secrets of the Atlas was a very bad Expansion.

Will the spectre change also make them persist if they temporarily unsummon for some reason?
My biggest cause of losing expensive spectres was qualitying the item the gem was in, dropping attributes too low while switching gear, accidentally swapping out the item the gem was in etc etc.

Holy spectres is BACK. Welcome back again Perfect Forest Tiger :D Yeeeesssssss! Forest Tiger is a cat !
