0.4.0c Hotfix 13

“I don’t think you can just nerf people in the middle of a league no matter what.”

This change not only pisses people off because they cant print currency, but also shows the community that you cant even be consistent with your own statements... you are losing credibility here GGG, that is very worrying.

Also, considering people investing so much time to build their temples, doing such changes feels quite unfair. At least give a heads-up or wait until league is over.

Here is what I think you could try.
- Focus on what makes the mechanic unique: Building the temple is the core mechanic, and Juatalotli's Medallions help a ton with that. Revert the nerf, or at least let players lock tier 2 rooms. Could also buff the drop rate of room medallions.
- Tone down the top-end and rise the bottom: Make the board smaller so that the "best" temple possible does not crash servers. People learning to engage with the mechanic might also feel less overwhelmed with a smaller, simpler board.
- Reset all temples (this would be needed if you make the board smaller). Give crystals depending on how many rooms were deleted so that player dont feel as bad to start over.

The league is probably dead for me, but I hope at least GGG learns from this mistake.
It's kind of sad seeing GGG like this after coming back since like.. idk.. 2018? The bigger companies get it always just gets worse I guess.

See you next league regardless temple was addicting even though I wasn't juiced
fix exploit on next day - NO, Millions of people play our game, but we have a weekend

Fix the exploit a week later, when players have gotten used to it and will be crying and whining, when the economy has already shifted to the cheapness of divines - YES

what a devs.,..
50 hours wasted on building the temple. Never realy post anything but GGG you fcked over the casuals thanks
"
So everyone gets to watch the entire setup be slowly destroyed run by run because we can only lock a tier 3? What the fuck are you guys thinking?


Apparently they want us to Roleplay with bosses on the Atlas, while they are invulnerable for 30 secs, and i lose all my rage, all my buffs, then the boss does its classic 1 shot without an animation while im mid dodge roll. Then i have to respawn and watch/listen to the boss ROLEPLAY AGAIN

Meanwhile i cant unbind sprint, because controller players dont have enough buttons, so PC players are forced to deal with forced double binding on SPACEBAR.

Wasn't Path of Exile a PC game long ago? Seems like console trash more often than not.

Maps are awful, Temple building was the only reason i played. Get this.... It HAS A MAP YOU CAN SEE WHERE TO GO. Such a clever idea!
Probably the most fun I've had in a while building my temple slowly and to now get it blasted into oblivion with this obnoxious patch, I am done.
The Vaal Temple stuff was some of the most fun I've had in POE period. 1 or 2. I wasn't even that far into setting up my temple, but I was enjoying working on it. Happily. I actually had a desire to log in and play. I was even getting ready to spend some money on a bunch of stash tabs. Now? With this "Hotfix", the wind has left my sails. I don't even care to play anymore. Good job. Glad the hotfix came in before I wasted money.

NERF THOSE PARTY FARMER
In short, the game POE2 died before release. With such idiots making such patches, imagine what will happen on release and how you can even play it without the fear of wasting your time.
AFK is the only choice for casual players
theres no way to go
