You know GGG you can nerf all game to oblivion. It's your game. I will deal with it. But what you CANNOT DO, is to force me to play your game or spend a dime on this fucking nerfing game. You nerf the game every couple months. Why you introduce some mechanic and unique items? Just to nerf it because lot of players using it? You have no developer team to PREDICT the mechanics and new stuff? So you need to nerfit after couple months when actually players show you what you did wrong? Shame on you for it. You nerfing my character EVERY couple months and I'm sick and tire to make always new one. So you can have your game. I will see how my character will work. If not bye, bye.

i really dont think its worth quiting over man game is fun, and itll still be fun, but i too am sad about some of the nerfs i really loved mjolner builds and aspired to them in every league, makes me sad that their gone now.

You know the game was fun at the beginning. When I had nothing to loose. But after playing a years and nerfing all my characters, the fun is gone and I'm sick and tired to make always another character which WILL BE NERFED AGAIN.!!! Never ending nerfing wheel. And that's not fun. Game is soooo unstable now that is almost beyond playable.

Yeah I feel. I was so fucking pissed when GGG nerfed pierce back in the day! It ruined the build, the 1st one, that I had killed Atziri with. Before that, my best build was elemental buzzsaw. I loved buzzsaw! I bought the DAMN MTX for that shit so i could be like Mathil! Nerfed...spectral throw. Nerfed so bad that it took a long time before spectral throw even came back.

What I did after a couple hard nerfs to characters that I loved, I made a decision: I am only going to play leagues and not give a fuck about standard. Turns out, guess what? Every league, after maybe onslaught, there was a new meta super op build. GGG just keeps rolling them out! It became fun. GGG makes the game, we BREAK it, rinse and repeat. You have to just let go man, its all just pixels anyhow, on a free game.

Play to have fun, this is not time wasted! Smoke a nice fat joint and start farming essences, make some super OP rare shit that GGG will announce is way too OP and cannot possibly be brought into the core game. Then, maybe some of it does, maybe it does not. Who cares new league will be coming out for Christmas!

EQ effect on sale? Sweet.
EQ gets nerfed days after? Super sweet.

GGG - Geniuses Gear Games, lol!

I look down on the statement "You shouldn't be able to faceroll."

I'm upset that I'm no longer among the strongest. I feel like I put in the time to be at the top of the heap, and it wasn't necessary to push me so far back down...

I wish that they had made new builds as good as CoC, instead of making CoC worse. I feel that the gear cost was appropriate for the power.

Gear is always more or less appropriate to power, it's simple supply / demand situation.

Yes it was necessary to push you back down, quite simply people who used overpowered builds belonged to where they shouldn't.

I play online games for nearly 20 years and still can't get used to people crying about nerfs, is it really so hard for some people to adapt ?

OMG when you people finally realize that is NOT ABOUT NERFS. IT ABOUT LOST OF TIME WHAT WE PUT TO THESE CHARACTERS. It's hundred of hours to farming and saving currency to make those build. And this time is wasted now. That's what piss me off. Lost of TIME!!!!!!!!!! They changing game rules AVERY FUCKING COUPLE MONTHS. Instability of this game is what this game is killing. You cannot focus to make characters, because it WILL BE NERFED.

You mean you weren't having fun during that time?
Dang, I can't imagine spending hundreds of hours at something that I not only didn't enjoy, but was also not getting payed for.

I think this has the potential to be completely broken

ahem, solo players have always and will always be fucked. cause ggg is too lazy/stupid to make a simple clickable box that says SOLO/SELF FOUND on the character creation screen.

this is also why PoE is not a competitive game for solo players.

For Cast on Critical Strike, Cast on Melee Kill, Mjölner and Cospri's Malice, only one skill can be triggered per trigger event.

Wait, so you basically destroyed Mjolner?

Wow. Very sad, guess GGG likes to re-define the definition for legacy items. Oh well.

Looks good across the board!

Not happy with the additional life on monster. Thats just lazy (sry :P)

Zana, Master Cartographer has a new voice actor.

Why?!

Awesome job GGG for this next big patch. Thanks and You guys rock! :O)

Wow... the flamage and fanboi hate is strong in this thread.

IMO - I have Voidheart and Reach, and personally if they're going to nerf future iterations they should nerf what I've got on my toons. Or they should just leave them well enough alone. Yep, both were OP as heck - Reach especially - but hey, the new bow we've seen showcased for Essence/Atlas is even MORE op. Forkpiercebleed... yeah, no.

And not a whole lot given to melee to make it viable against ranged, except to give melee more ranged (EQ, lascerate). Melee should be the single-target king bar none, one-shotting bosses while ranged builds kite and plink.
But no, they nerf the only class (jug) that can survive in a toe-to-toe fight with a small number of bosses, without addressing the NPC one-shot-kills-ANY-build excess. The closer the player is the lower the damage output of the target should be. And even the best jug builds can't stand up to all of the content.
Now that map mobs are tougher above tier 4... yeah, melee's in a very bad position.

I'm not much pleased with the changes, but I've never had the lucre to actually focus on the new meta monstrosities so I'm not out much at all, besides a little time investment. But those people who have spent weeks or months tweaking their champion characters just got a spiked boot to the reproductive organs... I don't envy their ire.

Why?!

No idea. Zana's voice acting was amazing too. What in the ever fuck is GGG thinking this patch?

I'm actually looking forward to the new content and new builds. Shits gonna be DANK. Some people will never be satisfied. Fuck em.
