Content Update 3.15.0 -- Path of Exile: Expedition

Wow!

I'll give the league a try, the mechanic seems interesting to me.

That said. I honestly think the nerfs went too far. I could live with the damage nerfs, but the other QOL nerfs AND the mana costs seem too far. We will see.

The flask changes are horrible, but I think we all expected to go through iterations of changes to get them right and I do believe they needed to change
With these changes it would be wonderful if we could have the ailments not part of the random position stream of buff icons at the top.
Icons at the bottom would be better. With my latency its not going to matter where they are. Without pre-emptive flasks I'm just going to die before I know I have the ailment. Guess I'll be crafting my flasks to trigger on effect.
(Wish you would find a way to trust the client, you know, the tool providing the data the player is making decisions on) Instead of the server has the real picture and you have a delayed approximation of the real picture.

I do agree with the principle of slowing the game down but making it unpleasant at the same time is not cool. Also, when comparing it to beta and earlier versions I'm pretty sure you didn't have to play over 400 maps JUST to open up the Maven Skill trees for each area. (Its fewer if you get really lucky but its about that). At 5 mins a map for your average player that's 33.3 hours. That includes Hideout time. So likely longer.


Awakened and Alternate quality gems were a good idea, why didn't you nerf the abuse of them instead?

Like Harvest before it, why don't you just remove Aisling. Her nerf is stupid. I doubt many people will use it now. I'll just ignore these two facets of the game this league. Last league invested lots of time trying Harvest and was very disappointed. I didn't get a single augment in hundreds of tries. I kinda had to laugh at the Zana Mod cost because it shows the devs thought it was still good.

I believe these changes will cost a lot of casual players. Could be wrong.
There is an old saying.
Sell to the Classes, live with the Masses,
Sell to the Masses, live with the Classes.
I'm sure there is probably a happy middle ground.

Diablo 2 here I come!!!

SEND THE FRENCH VERSION PLZ :(

On the release day

- Hilllock: Hey! Where is everyone? Hello?

Ouuu, D2 res early beta... :)

Why you nerf all builds? If someone have poor computer/internet connection it will kill fun from playing PoE. :( :( :( :( :( so sad

Goodbye PoE. It was a good run. Atleast these changes are so bad that I won't feel any FOMO after uninstalling.

Bane of Legends: Now called Headsman.

This just goes to show how much time and effort GGG puts into writing this manifesto and also doing the "balances".

In like 2-3 years time we'll call this manifesto, GGGs "don't you guys have phones" moment, just wait and see. :)))

And just like that GGG did it's best to have a Game Of Throne moment.

Might succeed

i've missed some lines in patchnotes

"to compensate for these changes
- currency drops in the game is increased by 20%
- conquerors now drop 2 watchstones instead of 1
- all bosses in the game now drop 30% more loot
- maven invitations now award 4 passives instead of 2 (cap remains the same)
- atlas awakening objective bonus is reverted to 3.9 patch"
