3.19.0c Patch Notes and Update on Community Feedback

These are some real cancerous (apologies for the language) "nerfs / buffs" and is not going to change anything.. How is it that GGG is so out of touch with their player base? Greed? Trying to be a game of a by passed era (Diablo II)?

You give us one of the most impactful changes to the game in the last years with a sneaky worked in nerf to the loot drops. With this you cancelled the league. I have always given GGG a lot of praise even with some of the more questionable changes which all started back in 3.15.

I started this league with a minion build (keep in mind that I am a casual player and have 1-2 hours a day to play the game if I am lucky). Even with decent gear (high minion life rolls and resistances on rings, shield, etc.) my minions keep dying on t1 to t5 (can’t even sustain maps properly) maps with a low rolled stats on the maps. This was not enjoyable. I did not even try anything with Animate Guardian as I saw in Gazzy's video that it dies in an instant with high rolled gear.
Due to the drop change you made I cannot farm the currency to get better gear that will make my minions survive.
But you can play Heist, you might say. However that mechanic is boring as fudgesicles..
I tried making exal.. I mean Divine's?????? (a change that ruined the complete market) by farming essence's. Boy, my minions and myself did not stand a chance against them..

I feel bad for Kay and Gazzy who play this archetype. Who devote so much time to minion builds just to see there way of life and work get decimated by GGG. Their builds are mine favorite ones. Due to a nerve condition in my hands I can only play 1 or 2 button builds without suffering pain or discomfort and I just like the relax playstyle of it. Boy, I miss the good old zombie army build, Ice golem build, Spectre builds.
The added minion gear does not compensate for the loss of minion life and defenses on gems and tree somehow.

Harvest change looked good on paper.. enough said about that.
Archnemesis.. utter cancer
Beyond.. is a thing that we die a lot too
League mechanic.. I mean you have one of the most legendary characters in the game and I have not even tried to listen to anything she is saying of any of the lore columns in the game. It is just boring compared to what it could be. Hope we see some changes to this as well.

oh, now all makes sense.

I like the game.

You need to fix general drops.

The game is worse by 100% and this fixes it by 5%.

Chris needs to make an interview appearance with some streamers or content creators as he did befor and explain why this was not communicated with the people.

And what are the reasons behind those changes.

Streamers all already quit. Well zizz still plays but he needs the money for the honeymoon (and he'll quit next week while he is on it) :D

Looks like players are review bombing you on steam so no new players. And veteran players are leaving. Great job GGG you have rlly outdone yourself this time.

And give me my F###ing Loot back.

Remove Archnemesis please. You tried, tried again, and again and now you are just beating a dead horse with a stick.

I appreciate the changes you posted. But we all know that you will just revert them in the next patch like you seem to do every patch. The PoE dev cycle seems to be:

* Introduce archnemesis
* OMG people hate this
* Nerf archnemesis
* Add reintroducing archnemesis to the top of the backlog for next league
* New league: we reintroduced archnemesis
* OMG people still hate it
* Nerf archnemesis
* Add reintroducing archnemesis to the top of the backlog for next league
* New league: Reintroduce archnemesis
* OMG people still hate it
* Nerf archnemesis
* Add reintroducing archnemesis to the top of the backlog for next league

Loot please.

Remove Archnemesis as it is.

bring back sextant blocking.

the fact that I'm doing some heist content shows that there is something terrible wrong with the state of the game, I hope this patch makes it better
