Content Update 0.5.0 — Path of Exile 2: Return of the Ancients

At this point you guys aren't doing your part... your job is to fix things that are broken yes but not only one way. You need to fix these crap skills that don't do anything. Damage on Tuesday works for no one lol. But hey all these huge changes you saved for after the dev interviews so that says alot
Seriously?? You release a great notable passive that everyone likes, we're building our decks, and you come and destroy us two days before the league launch? I can't remember the last time I was this angry!! Are you just here to punish us or what?? We want to enjoy ourselves, and all this because of some whiny jerk. Damn, I was so happy... my next two days are ruined, I'm gutted.
Dang I hope totems are still okay. I wante to give it a shot since it's been over 10 years since I last really played it.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Not enough supporter packs buddy ...
Wer von seinem Tag nicht zwei Drittel für sich selbst hat, ist ein Sklave
Im not really sure what should I start now. I wanted to play whirling assault first, but leech and weapon crafting was nerfed. I was like, ok don't panic, I will try spell totems. Now one day before launch it is nerfed. I was really hyped, but not anymore. Classic GGG again. I don't understand this way of thinking and communication. I wanted to buy the arbiter of divinity supporter pack after the twitch stream, because i was so hyped. But i remember, until launch GGG can really ruin things (as so many times before in POE1), so i was like, ok, it seems to be a great update, but lets wait for the patch notes. Here we are...
Im going to wait until day 2-3. If i can enjoy the game - if i can start something i can enjoy - i will buy the supporter pack. If i dont, i will just play for free or i will just quit.
Seriously, i don't understand. I hope, we just don't know the new broken things and we can craft and scale our damage with new tech, and this leauge will turn into the most epic update, but im not so confident anymore.
Pretty disappointing tbh.

Every league ruined by obvious bias to content creator-verse. More effort put into bringing the negative, snitching, malicious content creators to NZ than your actual game balancing.

Let us watch some more 4h campaign + tier 15 map runs with bows and twisters while you tell us shield wall, totems and 1% play builds need nerfs...

Honestly nonsense at this point. Anyway lets ride out this 6 months of 35% twister playrate. Hard to always be positive when the bias is glaring.

Thank you for an AMAZING work GGG, no jokes. Your team is the reason i still believe in game industry and always hyped about new leagues. You did a insalnly good Mirage League recently, where i spend around 500h in both HC SSF and Softcore leagues.

This one also looks incredible good with a lot of changes to the game and new content. I like your experimental mind and ability to risk with questionable changes.

Please, stay sane and be same;)

For all the "haters":
1 Twisters require ~5 buttons to be overpowered (Slash + Arrows + Barrage + Mark + Twister) + 2 different weapon sets with different trees + high investment in Attack Speed. Person who can go to t15 maps with this skill in 5h, 100% can do ~6h run with most other skills that in the game. It's a practice question, not a problem at all. Try grenades.

2 Part play nerf is probably targeting bots that stack a lot of extra damage for carry + IIR. Yes, it ruins experience for some other players, but we will have healthy economy because of that.

3 Crafting decent weapons with 5 clicks that can do 100% of the content is not healthy. Player power progression need to be smoother. Also, wait for runecrafting please.

4 Armor-based archetype might be buffed because of all new stuff we get, like Runic Ward, armour scaling, new uniques and tree changes (we have more good nodes already). Play it first.

5 Please, try to also focus on good changes. Don't be greedy in only negatives.


Bumping this post. Ya'll really need to touch grass and chill. If you think there is not build diversity, that's because you expect them all to be the very top tier. No game can do that. Quit being meta slaves. There are a lot of builds that are viable, but you only see the 5 the streamers talk about most. This is the kind of game where you get what you put in. You know why streamers make some of the best builds? They learned the game, the mechanics, put the time in and crunched the numbers for hrs. If you are not willing or able to put that kind of work into the game, then you are not going to see build diversity. Only the meta.
oh man the amount of crybabies is unreal, ice shot is not that good... make ur own build for once there is a bunch of good stuff to play. minions are really good, spell totems will still be good, coc will still be good, twisters will still be good, whirling assault will still be good etc etc.. like calm down.

if i can start something i can enjoy

And u enjoy, I bet, only broken stuff, am I right?

Because otherwise I dont know what probably can stop u of playing whatever u want. Killing bosses in 20 sec instead of 3 or finishing map in 7-10 mins instead of 3-5? But those few minutes/map more u are actually PLAYING what ever u want and like. Who making u play what u dont want to play? MB we have to call 911? Blink if so.

GGG great job! U keep on delivering in 1 build joes whining department. I ll miss it after league start.
