AMANAMU'S Gaze Augment is very weak bonus in some occasions.
|
I tested with excellent quality Armour gear items that provide Armour points between 1800-2500 ( with no increases ) and the result was disappointed. Greater Iron Rune bring almost the same result when talking about characters that have spirit between 100-150.
I think the 2 Armor per 1 Spirit ratio ONLY benefits mage classes that reach 400 Spirit and have significant bonuses over other non-spirit-based classes. This Augment rune supposed to be an alternative of Greater Iron Rune and should have more complex mechanism to cover satisfactorily all type of classes. Last bumped on Jan 22, 2026, 5:20:45 AM

" It's very pure designed as all runes that got updated in later patches. Everything done for mages. Don't expect bonus to Mercenary,Dead Eye, Warrior etc classes. Still waiting the monthly sheet about class ratio in game. They ain't gonna bring it to people becouse they know that 80% is mage options by players. | |

Normally ratio should have been 4 Armour per 1 spirit. Mages don't need Armour. Characters that are using mage buulds rely their defensive elements to Evasion and ofcourse Energy Shield.
So why Amanamus Gaze has so weak ratio in Armour if it is intented to be for non-mage class? |

" I tried that too in my Armour gear and didn't see any difference. I have 1750 Armour in body gear and tested to see if i get bigger bonus from my spirit than socketing Greater Iron rune. The difference was 3-5% becouse i have 138 spirit and Greater Iron rune make increases in Body Gear Armour have stronger result in overall Armour points. Some changes in later patches might help enhance the role of Amanamu's gaze Augment. |

+1. Ratio is too low for those that have less than 150 spirit. Amulets don't give more than 50 spirit . So 2 Armour per 1 spirit is nothing compared the Greater Iron rune support to quality Body Armours.

Everything is bad balanced and need rework. I didn't expect Amanamu's Gaze to be special Augment for low spirit builds. But it needs a ton up ofcourse otherwise Greater Iron rune will be significant stronger.

" Even with 0.3.0 Iron rune nerf still continue to be of one of more preferred choices of boosting Armour gear and weapons. Amanamu's Gaze is a meh choice becouse most Armour build classes can't exceed 130 spirit points. So whats the point of investing in Spirit Armour rather than straight Armour point increases. |
|
" I agree but did you something that is not copy paste form poe1? Ratio sucks becouse balance is transferred as it is from Poe1 and letted to people be the testers for every mess. Ofcourse 2/1 ratio is bad implemented becouse it covers only mages builds. |

Bump. Why always new content is ruining the weak builds? Better Amanamu's Gaze be conditional and help those suffer lack of support.
