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

i have to say this is the first time i have lost faith in GGGs vision.

why would you sell us an essence tab that holds thousands of essences then say "oh btw those 10,000 essences you have are worthless and you can only use 1. Thanks for buying the tab <3"

it really feels like this game is going to be diablo4 in 6 months.

"we have detected fun and removed it from the game. fixed a bug that was allowing players to enjoy the game"

can we at least get an essence tab refund? why would i buy a tab for an item i can only use 1 of?

Funny how they just killed the deterministic crafting with a simple note casually.

It was too powerful especially on early league you could make an insane weapon so cheaply.

Now you need to get super lucky to get one early, it is what it is.

All crafted modifiers are now guaranteed, but items can only have 1 crafted modifier at a time. Desecrated modifiers no longer count as crafted modifiers, but items are limited to 1 Desecrated modifier.

Bro, what?

Also you bricked slowpoke shield wall, and left quick shotgunning twisters untouched. I recognize hand of the master, brutus brain games balance moves right here.

If runes of aldur gives us runes that say "prefixes cannot change as long as this rune is equipped to this item" and same for suffix, then everything is fine since ths crafting change is mostly targeting weapons/jewels

Thanks for that horrible change! Skipping the league until fixed. Not playing slot machine again like in .2

It is a good change people, for 2 leagues now people were printing divines by sitting in the hideout only.

Ffs this is not an mmorpg where you make insane amount of gold by playing the market. It was ruining too much things, you may used it for yourself only but majority of people used to make insane amount of currency which also ruined the market rates. Then you cry about how the exchange market is too expensive all of a sudden.

Stop crying for one second and think about it.

Nifty trick! PoE2 has actually been a $30 game for over a year and a half, and from what I can see, they are only at version 0.5 :)

Why would you ever consider putting Primal Strikes from Uncut 7(drop lvl 23) to Uncut 9(drop lvl32) ???? It is one of the few Spear single target options outside of the convoluted twister tech 70% of the server currently does.

Act 2 boss is zone lvl 31, entire act 2 i now have 0 single target and can no longer kill Jamanra. Tested the build for an entire week now have to plan something else. very nice.

please just put both gems at 7 . . . . .

Crafting changes also just bad. +Skill still mandatory just harder now good job.

uh this makes inflation 100 billion times worse.

before any player could buy 3 essences and make a good weapon. now thats impossible and a good item will cost infinitely more like mirrors+

you are literally celebrating the thing that is inflating the market as there will be no supply of good items.
