Burning Ground is fu**** garbage
|
Most map layouts consist of narrow corridors. And in these corridors it's impossible to avoid ground effects. It's a very bad synergy.

Seems to be a balance issue with specific map types. They need to have two values. One for tight tunnels and hallways, another for big open maps. Seems like it is set for the big open map and when you get the smaller ones, it goes to crap. They reduced it so there is at least somewhere to stand but you dont have a path. Its all burning ground which even at 75% resistance will melt you as if standing in lava. How do they expect a player to get started in end game without 75% or more resist while covering the entire floor in this stuff.
Way too many things brought over from PoE1 that simply dont fit the maps, the skills or the mechanics of the game. |

I just use burning ground maps on towers since tower maps suck anyway and my build just suffers dmg wise from burning ground but isn't really killed by it.

" My build is great and I agree with OP, Burning Ground is dog shit cancer and only a real schmuck with a low Intelligent Quotient would add such an Ne'er-do-well mechanic. I'm an indie game developer, like those at Pal-World for example and I must admit how embarrassing Path of Exile 2 is and how it attracts mindless zombies who support the utter buffoonery that continues to occur from not answering customer service tickets with help desk support to not shipping out physical merchandise, and many other issue's with shipping and bug support. My shareholders would fire me if I ran a game as bad as Path of Exile 2 has been going between the bugs, dupes, ExileML bots accounts, RMT from China and Taiwan and the market bots using API to manipulate the markets and mess up the prices for everything.. The game is ruined for casual gamers who choose not to RMT unlike the majority of the western world who loves to spend real life cash to get ahead, I mean this is the core tenant of Capitalism after all, is it not, so it's only logical. |

" I mean, it's not just western gamers. East Asian gamers love to show off their wealth and progress in games, to the point that South Korean players get upset when they can't show off their fancy MTX outfits. It's more that PoE enables a lot of the worst video gaming habits: hyper-optimized mindless play being the goal you strive for, conspicuous consumption of overpriced cosmetics, wallowing through a quagmire of external APIs to perform basic functions like trading, and so on. |

Burning ground might as well say: -10% exp
It does a surprisingly high amount of dmg even with 75% fire resistance. The solution is to simply not do the map if it appears. Zuletzt bearbeitet von Qbiken#5394 um 04.02.2025, 04:05:00

" they just need to lower dot damage by 15-20% thats it |
