Character Balance in Path of Exile: Lake of Kalandra

Soo umm... Lightning Strike league?
F to brittle but its still pretty decent imo.
F to Mana reservation

Yet another league where popcorn srs gets nerfed because OTHER MINIONS are too strong. NERF THE PROBLEM. NOT EVERYTHING. (I ran the numbers all these changes are a damage down). Minion instability is in such a trash spot but guys people are having fun with cast on death better nerf that!!!!!

THE GREAT NERFS 2.0

PROBLEM:GGG's complains about defensive builds and nodes are mandatory for most players

You made those nodes mandatory by buffing monsters non-stop and adding that untested trash called archnemesis into the core, where you have 4s to find and kill an effigy in a cluttered laggy screen, if you dont, you die!

Looks like league skipping, lets stop spending money aswell until they learn.

F to spectres

this fucking game design. They just went back to it few leagues ago. They dont give us defensive options, then wonder why the fuck everyone goes full dps. Then just give us couple good options, then wonder why everybody uses them. I mean i couldnt think of a more non-cohesive balance process from any other game company.

Chainbreaker has been reworked. It now grants 1 Rage regenerated for every 25 Mana Regeneration per second, Mana Recovery from regeneration is not applied, and Skills cost +3 Rage.

But it's way harder to get an actual mana regeneration because we have no basically have no base mana regen in the game, instead of just getting "increased mana regeneration" on gear and stuff. So the keystone is basically just dead..

Some of these minion nerfs make no sense at all. Feels like a big FY and just nerf it all without even thinking what consequences it will have for for utility minions for non minion builds on top of that spectres where already made squishy.

Puzzled ...
