This is my first post on that forum, and, i think, it will be the last. I want to say THANK YOU to GGG and Cris for:
Elimination of solo play
Creating tons of Legacy items
Destroying a lot of existing builds
And many other things...

Tell the truth i spare that i support you. And i don't think that after such "positive" patch notes some players, who already quit Poe, will return. GL

So you've decided this without even playing the released version of PoE. Nicely done sir!

He does have i point, i am not looking forward to release either. Of course we all try it and time will tell, but on paper it looks more shit than good to me and not sure i would have supported as much if i knew this all was coming.

Still appreciate GGG, but i hope they do not lose their face to much

You've just defined what change means. It could be bad or good; but until you try it, you won't know.

The other guy basically implied he wasn't trying it as it was his first and last post.

Finally ;)

Im getting back to this game

With the amount of significant changes that we've seen thru the open-beta phase, I think everything should be wiped for 1.0.0 release. I know they won't.. but it is the right thing to do.

All these legacy items floating around, massive stock piles of orbs, rampant RMT, etc. Everything should be reset for 1.0.0.

But oh well, fucked up economy continues except it's even more fucked now with the introduction of several OP legacy uniques.

I actually agree with you. Now no way in hell they will wipe it.. but it would have been the easiest thing. And I have some good stuff but I still see that this would have been the best option.. for all that has developed and for the new players coming in that WANT to play in a permanent league.

Oh well hind site is 20/20.

I honestly am a bit worried about the direction POE is taking! Thus far I have not done much races as such. In POE I enjoy build depth and flexibility! And of course to just kill mobs!I can do this all in Standard or Hardcore without racing!

I do however understand that this is the perfect platform to implement balancing changes to the game. If I understand correctly to benefit from the changes I would have to race when released.

Game balance and "nerfing" is not the same thing and there are serious "nerfs" which I am still digesting! The beta gaming community invested a lot of time and (in most cases) some money towards making this a better game.

Having said the above I must say that thus far I have thoroughly enjoyed the POE experience!

At this time I reserve judgement but from what I see going forward I am not sure where I stand.

Again, you're not reading between the lines. You don't release a ground-breaking patch, lose a good portion of your playerbase, and try to fix it later. You take the necessary steps to preserve or expand the playerbase you have now, and make appropriate changes in the future.

This also doesn't explain GGG's ninja-retraction on their previous statements, such as the direct nerf to solo play and making it exceedingly more difficult to simply experience end-game content.

Oh please. Every single baby crying here that they are gonna ragequit is gonna be playing the game tomorrow.

Cullings like this are a necessity. There will always be fossils who don't want change, who will fight to keep things perpetually the same even if the old system is broken and makes no sense.

The Resplendent mod can no longer spawn on shields.
All shield defences have been reduced by 17%.



So, this is legacy too then? Or will it have 17% reduced on patch? Respendant mods on old shields getting nerfed or not? I would assume that they won't, but just want to confirm...

This..are things like his awesome shield remaining the same..just as the legacy unique items...or are you nerfing the existing rares... if so...then oh boy.. but they wouldn't do that because that would be one of the more fucked up things...even like on Jay Wilson level fucked up.

Any Guess as to what my Exalted Roll was?

Reflect i guess XD
But why exalting it in the first place?

Because I play Primarily Self Found. I could probably count the number of transactions I've done with other players on 2 hands. It's Ilvl 72, And it was, until the thorns, the perfect chest for me. (It's sadly, still the best ES Chest I own.)

Mana, Always good for a Curse bot summoner(current gems reflect passive respec to Frost Nova)
Triple Resists
% ES
All I needed, was the flat + to ES.

I haven't touched it since the Thorns roll, which was also prior to the fusing change (% Helps). Had I gotten the ES roll, I would have sold out everything I had if needed to get the 5L. Now, it sits there. I'm just now getting back into the char with the passive reset, because I tired of the summoner, and as I tired of the summoner, Anarchy stared, and I moved on to chars there.

All in all I guess the way GGG is taking seems to be traceable.
However I will not start a Fire Trap build now, because 30% damage is soo much.
Sure you could get a redicilous amount of dps out of it, but you also had to sacrifice survivability.
And certainly some of the skills that were nerfed did not seem overused to me, just as Fire Trap.

The relevancy...

I'm sure we'll all be playing tomorrow, myself included, however the weeks or months following are the real question. These are drastic nerfs to a lot of different playstyles in a game that openly advertises diversity.
