3 TABLETS + 6 MODS = NO REVIVES = NO FUN. WHY GGG. THIS SUCKS BAD!!!
" Sorry to say this but as a younger man you could probably jump down 10 feet and not hurt yourself but now you are not strong enough and would strain something. Why do I make this point? Because if you can’t do 6 mod maps with three tablets then don’t. It’s called risk and reward for a reason.

The worst thing about discussions like this, especially where it pertains to those defending this change, is that it used to be possible to run 3-9 tablets on weaker maps and was suddenly taken away for no reason. Bear in mind for two entire leagues and a couple weeks of 0.3.0, you could activate the towers, juice with tablets, then run them 5mod or less, or even unidentified.
If GGG didn't like this strategy, they could've patched it out a long time ago. Surely this forced no retry thing was an oversight which was lost when towers lost all relevance? PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

" You are just talking about how they nerfed mapping at this point. Open layouts, less monsters Best precursors, less effect That has nothing to do with "forced 1 try" or not. It has everything to do with how bad maps are now. If you were running 5 mods on those maps, you were still missing a lot. The best atlas passives give you effect per modifier on the map. Now because you are making nothing on bad maps, you think adding 1 mod closes that gap? You are wrong. I tested it. These are not small nerfs. These are massive nerfs. |

" I don't think you're understanding my post. I'm not talking about running maps 6mod and getting little to no reward. I'm talking about being forced into no revive runs just to utilize 3 tablets, where in the past you could get away with worse maps and still be able to use 3-9 tablets depending on tower overlapping, which was taken away with the tower rework. I don't care about maps feeling unrewarding. Most of the time, people who make that complaint only value currency drops and literally nothing else, which is a historical noob trap.

" " That is the same thing as talking about running maps and getting less reward. You feel "forced" because there is less reward. That is exactly what you are saying. Before, maps could be better, now they are worse, so you feel you have to 6 mod them. You should have felt just as forced before the change if this was not the case. It is the same thing, but with worse maps. Last edited by AverBeg7#1689 on Oct 5, 2025, 8:18:20 AM

Ppl being "forced" to PLAY A GAME.
Lollers. I think ALOT of people should be locked into basement with nothing more to play than Space hulk from 1993. |

" No. What I'm saying is that you had the choice to run 5mod maps or weaker and still have full access to the tablets in the past. You can't anymore. You literally must have 6mod maps in order to activate 3 tablets, anything less puts you down to 2 tablets. If GGG didn't like people doing that before, they would've removed that option a long time ago. PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

" Just HOW long ago? Lemme remind you we are in ea with game less than year online. |

" If GGG's original intention was to ensure you run 6mod maps when overlapping tablet effects, they would've stamped out the idea of running weaker waystones as early as 0.1.0. Hell, they could've just stuck to their guns and kept the forced no revive mechanic from back then, that would've eliminated almost all desire to run weaker maps.

" I get what you are saying, but it's sort of the same thing. You don't need 3 tablets to add a mechanic, you need 2. Even if they make it 5 mod = 3 tablets instead, you are still not going to feel rewarded for doing the content. It is because of the nerfs, more than it is because it is "forced by needing 6 mods for 3 tablets". You are essentially doing the same thing by stacking on a bunch of tablets and then missing out on the map mod, you are missing out on a couple of precursor's effect %, because you are missing the effect per modifier. That is what I am saying. I know you mean it's because the # of tablets, but it is essentially the same thing when you look at it from just a numbers perspective. It was equally as important to 6 mod your maps in 0.3, now it is just staring you in the face in 0.3.1. Some of the precursor numbers after the changes are just too low for most of the content to be really effective. Last edited by AverBeg7#1689 on Oct 5, 2025, 9:44:55 AM
