An Overview of Upcoming Changes

Tell me, why do you hate melee so much??? Melee is like shit, and you said a year ago to strengthen melee, is it fun? Forcing players to give up their favorite games

AN mods are terrible they have to go. There are many of mods which are bad for player builds and players cant choose it to skip it. We already have to skip some maps but at least you can choose it. Is it design of game to skip rares? Thats TERRIBLE. Often you cant skip them for instance in harvest.

To show you nice exaple EXECUTIONER.

It gets bonus based on missing life but i reserve all life. I guess it is flat life considered because I have a lot of it reserved and this guy one shots me. He has also mode that I can not "recover" ES above 50%. This means that even if you would make it 2 times less powerfull it would one shot me anyways! and I playing TANKY BUILD!

i mean i guess it's cool that we're getting some fixes but it seems to me that most of these patches could have been avoided if you had listened more to playtesters or.... you know... understood the basic aspects of your game. all these issues are self inflicted for no reason and very predictable results of (i hate to say it) pretty boneheaded changes to the core aspects of the game. you guys spent 10 years building a playerbase around a certain amount of core mechanics, and then you wildly nerf those mechanics and wonder why noone likes your game anymore... then have to spend valuable dev time fixing the problems you created.

How sad is melee combat??
Others only need to stack damage and survive without being taken away by a single shot, but melee combat must be comprehensive, you know? Talent and equipment don't have the time and space for me to improve. The saddest thing is that every PN, the monster becomes stronger again , the player is weakened again

let me share with you my point of view as a "average player".
- i like speed build, zooming around in map
- i like to see a lot of bubblegum currency drop when i grinding in map
- almost every league i grind map only and earn from running map
- my atlas passive tree allocate all "chance for monster drop additional connected map", "chance map drop to duplicate", "Wandering Path" and "Singular Focus" only
- i buy carry service/challenge service from all the earning i get from selling map
- i dont like Archnemesis and i skip all league mechanics during Archnemesis league because i really dont like it

i didnt denied that i very miss the good old time when CWDT doesnt required mana, when Exalted Orb is worth 160 chaos, when i still can 1 click vaal ice nova and whole screen mob gone

i like the game when it can done insane stuff like 1 click bomb whole screen. ya, its fun. And i play the game because it is fun. Dont know why you like to make the game torture the player. Average player would quit because the game not fun. Why you think people in 2022 will like hard game? i stress from work and hope game can relieve my stress with chill cwdt running map, chill 1 click bomb whole screen, easy HOT and Wardloop build.

But what to do, game is change, change into the state where my playtime is lesser and lesser for league ever since Harvest league.

Today my Animate Guardian died while doing lake of Kalandrea (dificult 9 Rough exile something like that). Hi had more than 80k life, overcapped with resistances and chaos. Besides the cluster setup (Dread March`s etc) i was running with "Grave Intention" full tree. That is just bad situation.

i just keep bastard dying
and i don't no why
just can't be bothered play anymore

like always, you don't play @ your game.
playing since 1.04 and always bad starting league.
you need a real Q&A

#openToJoinPoE_QA

very nice ggg

Exposed to the attack range of monsters, is there any advantage in melee combat over other occupations?? The answer is no, in front of monsters, we are like holding kitchen knives against gangsters with guns
