Patch Notes - Content Update 3.9.0 -- Path of Exile: Conquerors of the Atlas - Forum

Why nerfing crafted items while buffing other things? Despite some nerfs I smell powercreep again (greater supports and things like that). I will probably play only a little till 4.0 Lioneye's Watch has been visually updated and uses our latest rendering technology. Small preview of 4.0? I am ready:)	Posted by Rakiii#5559 on Dec 11, 2019, 1:02:53 PM Quote this Post
So, bosses will have more total defenses, we are weaker, time to kill bosses goes up increasing time to random one shot us? Sounds like fun?	Posted by schnooty#4229 on Dec 11, 2019, 1:10:02 PM Quote this Post

I don't get you players who says that grafting a good item is bad. If you like to play with HAYPOLE, sure you can do that. But there are most of players who like to graft better and better items and trying to enjoy the game. GGG nerfs game so often that good grafting chance is only way to play at all. Grafting is the SALT of the hole GAME. So be slowly !!	Posted by jymak22#2528 on Dec 11, 2019, 1:11:05 PM Quote this Post

Nerfing under powered melee as well was a stupid move.. I do not see the logic to ruin melee where it's easily the weakest build.

I long for the day overly long boss immunity phases and introductions are made obsolete. Easily one of the worst things about the game. Making the bosses harder is fine, having bosses be longer by some cheap "immune" phases isn't. It's not a challenge, it's an annoyance. Big difference.

Steam charts data, avg players per month on a year basis (avg monthly added together divided by 11months excluding december on both calculations because we dont have data yet) Avg players per month in 2018: 23.435 Avg players per month in 2019: 23.373 that not even a 1% decline in avg. player numbers.

Secondly, don't attempt capital venture or speculative investing. If it were possible, I'd buy 10,000 PUT contracts on GGG for this time next year.

That's the first time I'm saying this within 17 years of videogames addiction: these patch notes sound like a fucking joke, tbh. I'm sorry, GGG	Posted by TeModen#2916 on Dec 11, 2019, 1:40:38 PM Quote this Post

Im looking forward to it. This 100%. Rares were absolutely out of control. It's easy to pick out the people who only want to play this as a competition with others (and cry about it when even the slightest nerf comes their way) and those who enjoy making builds around the new mechanics. It's even easier still to find the people who don't understand how the mechanics actually work, i.e. the people claiming ele hit is RIP. One of my friends is unreasonably excited for the Lightning Warp changes. I'm looking forward to the OP AF ele hit with barrage, even with the "nerf." Yea, the changes seem good for making rares less op and uniques more relevant. The new influence types might be strong again though; bit like crafted uniques probably. Oh and your friend is right about the lightning warp change. But there are other neat buffs as well. Vaal burning arrow ignite scaling for instance is insanely buffed and you dont even need acc to apply it since the hit can't be evaded.
