Content Update 3.15.0 -- Path of Exile: Expedition

I dont think changes are balanced. Several key items and few builds were left untouched, making people play them.

Overall nerfs are ok i guess, gonna give it a shot but affraid it will not be like before, not enough time to grind so yeah casuals are going to quit making the trade market sad.

Doubt this league will have better player retention than the previous pathetic one. So sad for poe. Only streamers will play

Only thing I'd say is that It'd be nice to bring in MORE chase items. With the removal awakened gems stuff. It'll need to be compensated in some way.

in my opinion the solution should be easier story line, harder endgame, better crafting options, maybe some changes of droprates, maybe a self choosen autopickup like metamorph does is also a funtool ggg could too - it speed up the gameplay in a positive way and its also a good quality of gaming

This goes against what they just did they want nothing to be easy

It's a fools dream to think they will add auto pick up like metamorph you need to feel the weight of currency & items

Act 1 is the most annoying part of the game (and the acts in an overall way), most of players who want to discover the game just quit before entering the Lioneye's watch. And now GGG want to make the Act 1 harder than before...
I was assuming before and now i'm sure : [Removed by Support]

The main purpose of a game is to be played by everyone :)

Awakened gems losing their quality bonuses makes them worthless, less chase items yay.

Excited to play on Friday, then I might complain ;)

thanks for the last 6 years, uninstalled this game, goodbye

TL:DR

19 new gems
19 new mtx
this are the builds GGG want us to play
everything else is nerf and back to the patch 2.0
I thought in this game we have diversity of gameplays/playstyles

I truly wonder if this is the end for POE. It sure feels like it.

Almost lost consciousness reading this.

Making all classes mana starved CHECK
Increasing monsters' HP CHECK
Lowering player's DPS by up to 40% (or even more?) CHECK
Slowing Down players CHECK
Nerfing buff flasks CHECK

Giving in return some new rewarding core content to players SORRY BUT NO.

People already said that 3.14 was the worst experience and now we get even more nerf and still no new challenging more rewarding content :/

And yeah, looks like streamers and team players will be okay playing with aura and curse supports. Too bad most players play solo, they better socialize.

EDIT: ofcourse we gotta test this mess out before making any last statements. Player retention statistics will be interesting.
