Nerfs to things that didn't need nerfs

Stats.

Players complain when certain mods reduce their DPS even slightly, as if the game isn’t meant to be challenging. The root issue? DPS is the only stat that really matters, because other stats have little to no value.

If chilled ground matters, then reduction matters. If temp chains matters, reduction matters. Twats.

GGG, you make the value. Stop nerfing shit.

What did they do? Instead of making alternative stats more meaningful, they nerf the few systems that do support diverse builds. Then they wonder why players still focus on DPS.

You're f*cking yourselves.

Breach and Delirium absolutely isn't helping. Timers necessitate DPS and speed.

You're not wrong. They've got a sort of dichotomy (that the right word?) going on.

I think there's room for fast play all throughout the game. Core mechanics requiring that though? Might be the problem. Leave it till the top end t16 super juice.

They're sorting through trying to to make things work. Eff that. Bin PoE 1, make the game we've been waiting for. All the mechanics should be up for change.

You cannot have visceral and meaningful combat when monster swarming you and running you down with 150% movement speed. Players prioritize DPS because it is the only viable solution for defense against this. You cannot have 2 opposite philosophy coesixt in the same game, it will piss both side of the players.

Sure you can. I do it now. I lay down chilled ground with shattering palm, I daze with wind blast. Stun with staggering. You are wrong.

Should it be easier? Dunno. You are still incorrect.

Sure you can do that but why would you want to piano key a bunch of skill to restrain a bunch of white mobs which drop nothing valuable while dps characters just nuke them and move 2 screen away in the meantime. Is doing so meaningful to you? If drop rate is not so dogshit for balance around trade then sure give me 80% slow debuff but shower me with currencies everytime I combo a white mob.
