See, there's your problem right there.

That wasn't their problem, that's your problem that you do not like core element of Path of Exile, clear speed and rewards.

Legion was best league ever, was well received and had tons of players. Now in blight there are like 25% of previous league population played.

People want clear speed and insane loot.

You can do strange shit like Blight, which could be easily better with 300% IIQ being put on every monster to compensate for time spent.

But looks like another Synthesis, with Blighted Maps being added to the Zana missions in like 2 leagues from now, like they did with Synthesis maps.

still nothing fixed, skip to next league.

remove minion SPELL tag when? they do not get any utility of your spell damage but they do have the SPELL tag, feels lazy when every other gem in this game is so darn specific

Not all spells deal damage. SPELL echo, faster casting (of spells), SPELL totem, there's various ways to support minion skills that dont always directly buff individual minions.

Finally after all this time got a 3rd Blighted map.

Portal opened short distance from the pump, and soon after the TD started, it turned in to a power point presentation, and pump got destroyed.

Cheers. You fixed it alright.... so well that it is WORST than it was before.

You do realize it wasn't always like this? There certainly wasnt a clearspeed and thoughtless rushing mindset envelopping the entire game until like 2016. Not only has it only become only arguably a "core part" of the game recently

"Recently" is literally last 3 years. Like the half of the game existence. And statistics proves that it's what people like.

The leagues popularity are for sure telling us that clear speed and tons of loot is what the people need. Legion - everyone's happy, people doing 5-ways with party in the 3 month of the league, a lot of people doing Glaciers solo (finally solo farming was decent after league and league of aurabot+leechers meta). Blight - almost dead league after 2 weeks.

I want quality product, and it's pretty normal for customer to complain about getting bad product. The only good thing about that league is start without much lags.

Cassia is good too, but so was Kavas (I just like all of the Templar characters, Elreon and Gravicius too).

Tease players with easy game and high rewards and what do you know, they can't properly receive anything less

You know, those virtual drops do not have any manufacturing cost. Just keep drop on Legion level every league, it is not that hard.

And to clarify it, I actually like the Blight concept, they should just make encounters to scale with clear speed and increase rewards and it will be actually good league.
