Divergent Pride now causes nearby enemies to have -0.1% to physical damage reduction per 1% gem quality (from 0.5% per 1% gem quality).

I meaaaaaaaan. OKAY? The skill gems buffs are not as big as I thought they would be, taking into the consideration the massive nerfs to ascendancies.

Right? I was under the impression 40 skill gems were changing, but over half of those are just aura gems having their alt qualities nerfed because thanks aura stackers.

very disapointed, the only thing this patch note will make is force everyone into meta builds yet again

buffing underused skills? what a joke

every balance notes makes me want to play the game less and less

very disappointed and concerned about your ability to balance underused skills

change your balance team before it is too late

Nobody holds a gun to your head lol, you can leave anytime you want.
Anytime...

PoE is dying now =\
Adding POG content.
Nerfing all nice to play builds.
DotA has same way of development and now its garbage custom map.

Yep dying, for sure, must be. Especially since each new major league they are breaking their own records of users online. XD

So they spent the extra month working on making the game no longer fun? Cool Cool...

Ahh the irony and here I thought it's one of the best updates this game has seen in years. I guess we live in different realities then, lul.

The buffs were extremely underwhelming to be honest.

Also wish you'd revert the whole basic attack animation thing you did back in legion which makes most strike skills that use that animation super unfun since the first hit is super slowed just so the second one is faster??? If I have 1 aps then I want to hit once every second, not have an average hit of 1 per second due to the first and second hit having different speeds.

My honest advice would be: stop doing drugs, m'kay.

Are you telling me the CLuster Jewels i invested a fuckton are going to the trashcan? It should only apply to old ones though. Wouldnt hurt STD players.

Nobody cares about Standard bro, it's a dumpster league.

I cant find any summoner specific buffs to mitigate the ascendancy and skill gem nerfs.

Bex said there would be, so please point me to them.


Overall, the timing couldnt be worse for nerfs, in an pandemic you just dont do this in my books, its terrible PR for your company, its much smarter to give people something instead of taking it from them.


Chris if you see this post, send me a PM, I just want to understand your reasoning behind this.

Those that play, have fun and stay safe!

I don't know if you're blind or having serious problems reading but they already posted their explanation for the decisions they made.

For me and many people the vast majority of changes were totally deserved and warranted, dunno why it's so hard to understand for the rest of you, lol.

Nerfs and trolling all around

1. Bosses immune to damage from long distance - introduce new farshot mechanics. Bet you smiled when you made that decision.

2. People complain about the shitstorm that is Sirus and beg you to flush him now the drain, you now shove him down peoples throats in maps.

3. Heist, already nerfed during league, now made obsolete with low spawn chance aka limited markers aka cant run blueprints. Vinderi, already having a stupidly nasty penalty to threat, now made pointless.

4. The gems stupidly optimistic people hoped would compensate for ascendancy slaughter, nerfed by FIVE f*****g times - i'm talkin about alternate auras.

I'm trying here, genuinely struggling with my anger for the nth time, to see the purpose behind the changes. I'm coming short. Today I tried simulacrum wave 20 with a bleed glad with several hundred ex invested in and got butchered in seconds. A character now further nerfed. Is the idea that we should be happy with mid content and just drool over streamers, to keep us always chasing the endgame carrot? What a business model!

You are struggling to hold your anger over changes made in a FREE TO PLAY game?? I suggest visiting a specialist then, you might need it.



On a side note, super god damn hyped for the new league!

I don't know how you guys do it but I've been actively trying to quit for a while now (yeah right) but you guys always manage to bring me back.

What sorcery is this?!

Actually, I don't see any excited things to build around. Maybe it's my fault that I misinterpreted announcement from Chris, but I thought that we will get much more options to play (both from asdencancies and skill gems changes). Anyway, looking forward to new expansion and league.
