GGG....honestly....go to hell. These are the worse changes i have ever seen you guys do to the passive tree , and the worst unique nerf i have ever seen.

The nerf to items was ENTIRELY unnecessary. It was already going to be hard enough to get max block or even decent block but you then decide to massively destroy uniques as well and even base shields to make it worse?

The people with the best items will be upset for a while but then figure it out with their items. The rest have had builds destroyed and survivability nerfed. Those reactive skills won't be any help either thanks to it.

I am probably going to quit now. I just don't see the reason to play. Just the level of how bad you are at balancing is astounding.

I think we should all stop for a Moment and pause. Before you post remember you might come across as an ingorant butthurt child like this Person.


Perhaps we should actually play the game and see how the Balance changes Actually affect our builds in-game. Rather than making assumptions about the entire patch based on a few things we might dislike

And if those changes make us feel that a certain build is no longer viable, then perhaps we should re-evaluate the tree, develop new ideas for builds and test those ideas.

Personally i think thats a much better plan than crying about the fact that I wont get to Play the same CoC Max block build that i have played for the last two leagues

I think you are calling the wrong person a child, when you start throwing names around like that and butthurt you sir become the child. Firstly I agree with a lot of what he is saying. One my build which I worked on quite a bit was focused on Dual wield and block now that's shot regardless of your wait and see approach. 2 why should I be forced to abandon all my efforts into something and start from scratch every time they radically change things up. How would this inspire me to keep playing a game that has already lost most of my attention. Master are medicore and most of their mods are absolute crap and they are totally not worth the grind, so this addition to me did not keep my attention. Atziri is insanely hard unless you had an insanely expensive build. My Scion had 6.5kHP did 42K DPS and had a ton of block and I still could not do Atziri. No Sir I think the original Poster is pretty close to the truth of it. Unlike him I have already abandoned the game some months ago with the release of 2.1 for Diablo 3. I have been having a much more rewarding time and far less frustration.

Holy Shit the QQ is real. Sure, there were a lot of nerfs and not enough buffs...but you people are QUITTING the game because of that???

The whole point of PoE is to reroll and try new builds constantly, so now that you can't just play max block crit builds you don't want to try anything new? I've been waiting for the days where non-crit is viable again and I'm incredibly excited.

Melee isn't dead, 2 handers actually have somewhat of a chance to shine now with the new tree. Just because you don't have your precious little block cap or your 420k dps doesn't mean you can't survive maps as a melee...
