Most of this is very welcome. I'm a bit worried about the mana cost changes but I'll hold my judgement until I've played.

The thing that worries me above all else is Deadly Ailments going from 10% to 80% less damage with hits... that's insane! Could we get an explanation? I wouldn't disagree with even 30-40% but 80% seems far too steep. Is it even worth using at this point? The penalty outweighs the benefits! Is it supposed to be used only with fixed damage DoT skills like ED or CA?
Trying not to panic. It just seems a bit... strange?

If your build is dot-based, u will not get any difference reduced damage from hits by this gem. This is how game works. I can prove it.

Made some non-crit dot skill and take node Perfect Agony (30% less damage with hits). Watch on damage of ailments.

Without node

With it

Thanks this is very useful!
I thought the DoT from bleeds and poisons were based on your hit damage but if not, that's all good! Looking forward to the patch without worry now :)

Sooo, can we just launch "poe classic" for those who says "poe was better back then" and "i like more "challenge"".

And stay with current poe model that we enjoy with fast-paced game style and deleting all content.

Poe harvest plz.

The Envoy no longer repeats himself once you have heard everything he has to say.

Can we review his dialogue now? Previously you couldn't review most of it :/

The “Advanced Mod Descriptions” setting has been moved from the Chat category to the UI category in Options.

Nice.

iam pretty damn sure dmg over time from ailments is based on how much hit dmg you do.

POG Item Rarity Support isnt nerfed

I've been playing PoE since last year.

My first encounter with Merveil was a pure nightmare. She destroyed me over and over, and I already was about to ragequit.

A friend of mine advised me to read forums and helped me learn some mechanics.

More than a year later, in STANDARD league, I 've beaten Sirus in its lowest difficulty, at the fifth portal ONE time.

I can only play, in the best case, one or two hours a day.

Now, you say your game is too easy.

You destroy my dps (already low enough with less than 500 K not Millions).

You destroy my whole build with skyrocketed mana costs.

You shatter the poor defenses I managed to build.

You keep your stupid one shot mechanics.

Mobs health and damage output remain the same.

Where the hell is the fun ??

So, conclusions:
-I regret the cash I gave you in the marketplace
-there's no way I'll try a new build because I'm sure it will be destroyed next patch (by the way, call your game EVERNERF, not PoE)
-I definitely won't try again this game, let alone PoE 2
-I'll advise my friends to avoid PoE franchise like plague.

You achieved a fantastic goal.

I thought Diablo 3 lacked endgame content and build diversity. And it's quite true. But Blizzard listen to customers and don't pee on them. I'm installing D3 again ! Grats !

Sooo Hypothermia support doe not work anymore for the dmg over time ground effect of vortex, cold snap and creeping frost? because its not a ailment and the hit doesn't realy matter.
HAHAHAHA!...ok

Works great with bleed though... Cause that makes a ton of sense.

>_< ... i think they lost control over their own game.

I'm sorry to tell you that but the problem isn't the game difficulty here :D
