T17s are still an overtuned mess that are also annoying to roll

PoE 2's "boss reests on death" is also another pointlessly time-wasting mechanic.

It's more like a way to encourage you to get better at the game or play a proper character and not just the first best zoom zoom glass cannon that dies to almost everything.

Many older games did had the same mechanic to reset a boss upon a wipe, just the way it should be as corpse running is not a good content design.
So it's actually nice to see that a company picks up a solid system to learn players to get good on the hard way, instead of placing little instant gratification treats all over the place to make the game as piss easy and boring as possible.

"corpse running is not good content design" neither is xp loss on death or boss respawn mechanics, which is why you barely see it in any games anymore bar a few exceptions and why POE had to make a whole separate game, as their current playerbase doesnt want the POE 2 playstyle.

Uhm, that's like your opinion. You are welcome to have that opinion, but don't state it as fact. Not everything that's been invented years ago is bad only because it's been a few years since.

When did they invent the wheel again? So outdated!

it is a fact, when you can objectively see that its implementation into games is extremely scarce and barely none existent anymore. That is an a factual proof that it is a terrible game mechanic, cause neither players or developers at large gravitate towards it.

If you cannot even say why something is "bad" your post is just as redundant as calling it "old" or "outdated."

The theory of preformationism (that believed all life existed since the beginning) is outdated since the discovery of DNA as well as the atomic theory. Or in laymen terms: a better theory was found. Nowhere in your remarks can I find even a hint of a better system.

Bosses resetting is seen all over gaming by the way. Hell, there are games that make you start all over if you just die once and it's part of the gameplay loop. Corpse-rushing bosses during campaign is bad design. Ignoring boss mechanics through sheer DPS and just using portals as extra lives is bad design. Resetting boss health on death on the other hand adds skill expression because either you do the mechanics properly or you learn them in the process. No freebies.

Anyway t17s need more nerfs

Cant state how important this is.

Go in, do the mechanics correctly, grow and understand fights, actually engaging with the material; rather than face slamming head first and ignoring mechanics because you have 6 portals.

Cant wait for POE2.

Well that's why poe 2 is a seperate game, if you wanna play dark souls all day and have "challenging content" then go play that game. But it has no place in poe 1. That's why hc and ssf exist, if you wanna make the game harder just press those buttons when making your char. This thread is specifically my feedback about the game in sc trade, no other mode.

Threads are an open discussion, it isn't YOUR thread.


Anyways, Cant wait for POE2 hopefully the success of its anti-cheese mechanics can make its way to POE1 as well and into T17, ubers, and aspirational content!

Majority of the player base definitely wants it to happen. Keep it coming GGG!

I never said that.

T17s still suck, that fact always remains.

-1. T17's are the best thing in POE

Nah, these maps are unbalanced and overtuned.
