I dont understand how anybody can deemed this game fun if devs are constantly pushing out patches that are several pages long and will most likely destroy your builds that you play for hundreds of hours.


They are not constantly pushing out patches that are several pages long. What are you even talking about?


Go ahead and check patch 3.25


You don't understand it, which is OK. But everyone else does.

And it's not "constantly", it's every 4 months (normally). Do you know how a league looks like during the last weeks? It's very empty. Those "pages" of changes are what's bringing people back.

Sure :D everything that I have pointed out and this is all you gotta say :D. Just being tired of so many chnages and nerfs = skill issue :D OK
I can see the patern in those fanatics over here. Everybody with every supporter pack is just "DEFEND MY BELOVED GAME" :D Chill I know that you have droppped like 5 grand on this game but it doesnt mean that you are owner of this game :D Games have flaws and pros and every player likes something else you love to waste hundreds of hours on builds that are going to be trashed in a couple of weeks and thats you but thats not OK with me.

That is such a big step back from earlier when we had a reasonable exchange. Disappointing to read you think everyone disagreeing with you is the same, and very disingenuous & two-faced.

The opposite of knowledge is not illiteracy, but the illusion of knowledge.
You cant be reasoned with people that simply reply "Skill Issue" after you have been explaining yourself in multiple posts. And yes those people with every supporter packs live inside the POE buble where everybody is anoyed with nerfs and buffs but they are still wasting more and more hours and more and more money on this game.
I am sure you can find it in you to point out the bad faith nature of that 1 person without attacking every single person who's invested a considerable amount of money into the game, especially if you want to claim some moral high ground for yourself

so you want for devs to never change meta and items for 10+ years so everyone would play the same builds for 10+ years every single league? yeah....no you can go play those games bye for a reason PoE is still the most popular and best arpg while those other games you named are all dead


There are hundreds of non-meta builds that GGG damage every time it balances its two-three meta builds.
And yes, many players want to play and customize their non-meta build for years because they are not meta slaves.


thats just plain lie they do not damage hundreds of non-meta builds when they shake up meta and they definitely dont focus on only changing 2-3 meta builds you clearly arent playing PoE

Well english is not my native language so I agree that some of the text might be to straight forward and I dont use words that will be soothing for everybody but I thnk that I was still able to get my points across. I used to like this game a lot even though it might not look like it from this post but I really liked this game while back but every since they started with those insane nerfs and buffs that impacted even builds that were not "overpowered" and it took around 200+ divines or exalted orbs which used to be currency used instead of divines back than. I used to take time with finding skill gems and finding ways how to make it work and how to have good balance between DPS and Defence but now it is just absurd. If you are looking to make your own build instead of copy pasting from somebody else the amount of research and trial and error for what? Couple of weeks and than do it all over again? Nah, I am good. Again english is not my native language so yes I make a lot of errors here and there but overall I have explain myself.

And for the last time. Yes you can make every skill gem viable if you have all the currency in the world to craft all the mirror-tier items and mageblood, headhunter, the Progenesis flask, voices jewel, unnatural instinct etc... basically all the unique jewels in the game than you can make your builds with any skill gem in the game but if you are normal human being that has work there is no way that with my 1 - 2 hours a day I would be able to make any build I want and doing it every league from the scratch.

Which part of "completely and functionally destroyed" did you not understand? They literally don't exist anymore. Those builds are from almost a decade ago. They have since changed the functionality of triggers and Devotions. It was possible back then to create looping builds. They. Do. Not. Exist. Anymore.


Plenty of the old trigger builds are still around in one form or another, many of them in even more refined versions than before. This league even saw the return of the decade-old wormblast, still functioning in a way that’s almost nostalgically familiar to anyone who remembers it. The ongoing tweaks and evolutions are pretty easy to notice when you’ve been here long enough to see them unfold, though I can see how they might slip past someone who joined the game a bit more recently.
