Issue of the post is that GGG did not inform of the gauntlet effects.

Fact of the issue is the event announcement, event details, and event patch notes all clearly indicated that there would be gauntlet effects.

First line January 20th announcement: right at the VERY TOP. Before you even see the title "Legacy of Phrecia"

"Embrace the bizarre when the Legacy of Phrecia returns to Path of Exile on January 29th (PST)! With 19 alternate Ascendancy classes, battle through areas altered by map modifiers, and face enraged bosses that push your builds and your skill to the limit."


Underlined: push your builds and your skill to the limit

calm down, detective dan. that was my response to the balance changes. but what exactly do you think you've discovered here? that i already knew about the boss mechanics? yes, i did, i knew what they told me, which was "[we] developed a few new mechanics for you to overcome".

my issue, if you want to discuss it instead of reading my post history to attack me instead, is they should have simply said what they were doing, which was adding gauntlet bosses with a new enrage mechanic. i would have still played it, like i am now, but i wouldn't find myself defending those that are upset by it.

Which is......literally what they said. How much clearer could it have been? This wasn't just posted once, it was posted three times. It was the BANNER QUOTE for the event.

You don't want me reading your post history, you criticize GGG for not posting about this.....yet you get to ignore the real fact that not only did they post exactly the information you wanted....but you couldn't even be bothered to read THIS thread, two posts before your own?

I'm sorry....GGG isn't responsible for holding your hand while you read their posts.



You don't need to be a detective to read the very first line (okay...SECOND LINE) of the phrecia announcement.

my guy... you are being way too dramatic for a conversation on the internet about a video game.
and for the record, this is what "literally what they said" would look like (and it would have been much clearer):

We added gauntlet boss mechanics with a new enrage mechanic.

... have a good night
