Path of Exile 2: Upcoming Changes and Improvements

I start reading the post happy with the adjustments and end up sad seeing that my build will receive the third nerf in a row... in short sad, but fair enough.

big if true

So no update on issue which cause PC freez during loading to the area? Idk how should I feel as supported and long time player...

Oh really? Did I have large freaking elephant drum instead of ears both side of my head all these time. Cuz if not. I followed every little interview, podcast & other stuff. What they told us is its going to be more in hand gameplay.

Okay lets be rational. If everyone knows that poe2 is going to be hard. Then why Krip, Mathil, DM, Ghazzy & almost every content creator is saying this game is much harder then they expected. Oh, maybe they were not following the interviews & podcasts. And when they went to LA to play test the game, they were probably twiddling their thumb didn't they.

I want softcore experience. If there are sooooo many people enjoying the hard mode game. Then fine. Let GGG make ruthless mode and put the current game in ruthless. Where all of you will be playing. We very small number of people. Like I don't know maybe the way you are talking we are probably 10-20 people that are "crying" give us the version where we have easier game, 6 portal, easier Ascendency options. We are more than happy to be at a disadvantage. Pls, you guys go ahead and play the good hard challenging poe in ruthless mode. while we suffer in softcore.

Yes, big freaking elephant drums for ears is clearly what you have.

You want an easier game, go play one. This isn't the easy mode game you are looking for, and it won't ever be it.

Makes sense, that you could not come of anything better to say and admitted your defeat.

Most players(me included) that enjoy hard-ruthless style of poe 2 wouldn't play it if they would have easier mode, not because i like easier mode more(i like ruthless style waaaay more than softcore where you get everything soft spooned) but because why would i waste time for something i can get way easier in other mode. So no i like this as it is way more.

I am thinking 2 things here

1. Gold should not be obtainable by items you can trade. Gold should probably not be used for respeccing
2. Builds being overpowered means that there barely is one build on each class in one ascendancy only that is enjoyable to play. We are talking a or s tier and every other build on that class is a c tier or lower. At least that is what I experienced and what I got from Meta analysis done by others.
I think the game needs a huge buff on every underperforming skill. Or in some cases a buff so that skills or ascendancies so not solely rely on a unique to be playable.

But I am excited to see the changes in action. At least it will give me a reason to log in again.

Also Merry Christmas and good holidays
I sure hope Santa has a new poe1 league in store early next year

Ty GGG..

good stuff here, worth the time reading it after waking up.. :)

I am particularly happy about the Occult section (Chaos) changes, since I am trying to do my own build, and around 90% of Witches roll with minion build..

And I feel like chaos dot is only depending on skill lv upscale
(which I can not be sure yet, if it will go all the way) with a need of taking all or most of the chaos nodes, leaving some space for defence, that might not be enough...
Right now I am planning to keep it with Blood Mage, - not to change to Sorceress spells - because Chaos/Bone skills is obviously one way of the Witch.

By the way, I really do not agree with these one shotting deaths, I see from others, and they are coming from anywhere.. It just does not make sense to me. IF it is possible to build against it (at every class? ), without going way too far.. then okay, be it.
Also dying once and loosing a lot of.. stuff on maps, permanently seems too harsh and punishing, ppl will lose more than just ingame stuff.. and will make everyone look for builds, making the effort put "in more build", "a lot of viable builds" actually, useless.

I see that it is important for GGG to make a difference on this, (maybe their testers had easier time here, than the public :) ) end game ppl skills, that I agree with, but I personally think it could use a little change.

Patch when? :D

I told everyone GGG got our back!
