0.1.0d Hotfix 1

yep! im done playing this game. You guys suck big time. Nerfing is one thing, but killing the entire mechanic for the sake of it is moronic.

I just spent my last money on changing my build to crit, and this one is also gone. I have nothing left, everything I farmed...

wtf

WTF is that patch?
That makes no sense at all.
For example: to make coc/comet work u need to use comet. But why do it and waste half of your points on crit/meta passives etc to proc another comet with dmg cupports if you can just self cast comet with 10x more dmg and clear all screen.
Worst patch so far, absolutely dumb.

As many people have already said; this feels like a really stupid decision, which completely beats the point of CoC.. even if the idea behind meta skills is to only be supportive, this change just feels so weird, anti-player and anti-purpose. why not just heavily nerf the damage dealt by the supported skills?.. the skills' name is Cast on Critical, not Cast on Critical Damage. I've played PoE for more than 10 years now and i love GGG to death; PoE has carried me through some really rough times and i probably won't ever quit playing PoE games, but this change singlehandedly brought me the closest i've ever been.. i'll stop playing for now; hopefully i come back to a better game.

Good points and suggestion. The playstyle is fun. Don't care about the damage as much, the playstyle is cool and satisfying. I think GGG are taking a terrible route here. The currency change gave me hope, these recent patches are making me lose that hope. I'm out for now.

100% im out too i uninstalled. I am a new player, bought into the massive hype!! What a great way to motivate the new audience. Shit all over our FUN not even a week in! I was playing cast on freeze not bcause of its output (which I really didnt find that crazy) it had some problems like the constant need to spam mana potions, but it was FUN!!

D3 was a shit game but the frost/meteor sorc builds were some of the most fun ive ever had, its such a cool satisfying gameplay and GGG destroyed it.

If you think its over performing (for what ever reason) fine nerf damage, but dont destroy the skills entirely making the classic meteor mage archetype dead. Thats classic ARPG MAGE GAMEPLAY.

This shows me they dont care about their customers. The excuse of "its early access" does not apply here. If it was a invitational beta to test game sure no problem. But fact is we all paid MONEY to play. So call it what you want but we are still entitled to get satisfaction and value out of the money and time we invest.

This was a F U and total disrespect to the playerbase.

cof, coc unplayable, 400k gold spend on respec, i was thinking what a fun, u cast frozen shards to freeze, frost wall and frost bomb then auto trigger comet, WHAT a fun! and u just destroy it pushing to play just wall/comet xD nerf dmg but dont ruin playstyle!!! what a big SCUM was that 90h invested just ruined

I just respecced because my build was bricked from the patch and now it's bricked again and I have no gold to do anything... what a waste of my time this is so annoying

The majority of caster spirit gems just serve no offensive purpose now. The only other options are the ones for minion builds. What do we take instead?

Just my opinion, but I may sit the rest of the early access out because of this Patch if something doesn't change.

Don't nerf a skill by 90% on day 5 of the league, not give respec points, and expect people to just be like "ok cool thanks may I please have another".

What's my motivation to try to find something else OP or cool, if it gets immediately taken back? I noticed this cool interaction, theory crafted it, and it came to fruition. Seconds after, massive nerf. Where's the power fantasy in this? Maybe announce ("24 hours this will take effect; you have been warned"). Seriously, you have entire ecendencies based around trigger skills, how were they 90% off from the mark?

Maybe add a one-time revert for players who have over 10 hours of playtime?

Maybe balance your skills before some people put dozens of hours into playing them?

Congrats, I'm now pigeon-holed into playing a spark build! Holy build diversity, guys, great job.

Now I understand what this game is about, I don't want to play it anymore

So you GGG just dont want ppl to play this game. I understand now and i will uninstall it.
