Path of Exile is a MAJESTIC incline

[ArchAngel]

So now, after we finished Syndicate, Jun and Zana can fuck each other?

Only if we get to watch!

Chris worried about synthesis being too complicated for the community

I'm predicting another Incursion flop.

or Bestiary
because a little bit of precision over mindless slaughter is too much for people

Wonder how many ideas (good ones) are send to the trash because they might be too complicated for the players.

In terms of player retention it was Bestiary > Delve > Incursion. Chris said it himself on a podcast.

Challenges rewards are fucking UGLY.

Helmet, pet, and back attachment again. I'm starting to miss weapon effects and footprints.

Add portal to the mix and i think that's all we ever got in last 2 years.

 

[Perkel]

don't know why she remind me Lilura's avatar from her blog
now change mr Girafee aka Templar plz

I smell incoming abandonment of grimdark atmosphere of the game, may it's their choice, or maybe adaptation for chinese market

That is for sure. Chinese version is heavily censored and now they are owned by Tencet. So the obvious question from their owner is why they should make two versions of the game ?

Chinese version is completely scrubbed from gore and blood, even no dead bodies anywhere, all females are covered etc:

I'm predicting another Incursion flop.

Well it is not like they put a lot of work into it. In recent Baeclast Chris said that they designed from ground up and made whole expansion in 13 weeks.

 

[ArchAngel]

Their crazy schedule of 4 leagues per year is going to kill them and the game eventually. They need to move that to 3 leagues per year and give us more meaty and better tested expansions.

Yay, they nerfed leech again! Because melee characters are op and everyone plays them, right?
I don't even like slayer but this shit is getting ridiculous.

3.7 is supposed to bring melee "rebalance" but i don't think anything can be done about it until something like 4.0 which is supposed to be major rework.

They had to change leech because surprise surprise you will not get more options to get leach on ES which is naturally retarded since ES regenerates fucking quickly and you have like billions ES compared to life if you specialize in it.

Don't forget that next league again will be timer based league so if you play slow melee character again "fuck you mate"

So basically if you didn't get the memo and trying to play with melee skills you are fucked. Because reasons. Play with same "melee" spells with hundreds of hits per second like everyone else, shitlord! "More options for builds".

 

[Reinhardt]

I'm skipping this league without any regrets.

 

[Zdzisiu]

Its fireball time for me! Again! This time I won't focus on ignite but will just go full hit damage with fork etc.

The question is now, Elementalist or Occultist?

 

[Reinhardt]

Chieftain.

Well this is what you get when you don't follow design principles.

Life leech via % ? for big hits
Life leech via flat +5etc ? For a lot of small hits.

Then instead of applying above they decided that % one needs to be viable for a lot of small hits.
Obviously they fucked up on spell damage that scales so well that you get milions of DPS rather than thousands for melee due to how POE needs AOE damage.

WTH is that icetrap buff. Seriously thinking of rolling another rainbow-trapper, only with ice-trap this time around, instead of going for the ll rf/vaal cs build I planned out initially.

Melee really seems to be in the dumpster for an entire patch-cycle, which is kinda hilarious. Then again, if the self-cast changes are good ones, I have high hopes for melee in 3.7

B-but they already buffed melee! Cleave can hit 40 targets now!

 

[Cyberarmy]

At least there isn't any cyclone nerfs this time?

 

[User was nabbed fit]

I'm going to try a Trickster build following the passive tree buffs. We meta now.

 

[Jaedar]

Interesting to see nerfs to both defensive curses, buffs to all the offensive ones.
