Consistently getting One Shot
Chilled Ground + Pile of corpses + obstructions in for ground.
Look I know there's a lot going on but pre patch I was not getting one shot at all and post patch I have been one-shot every other map/ It's some kind of Corpse explosion shit because the only7 thing in common is a pile of f'in corpses. Doesn't seem to matter if I moving or not and the explosion charge up seems like it happens after the fact. Seems like when those Abyss Boss things spawn they immediately detonate corpses under my feet with no animation. Last bumped on Oct 5, 2025, 8:14:35 AM

welcome to poop of excrement where the only way to keep you playing is cheap one shot instead of good game design.

Samething here, I leveled a Deadeye and a Ritualist, both using Evasion, around 60%, and energy shield, up to 1k; 75 elemental resistances, up to 40% chaos; 2.2k hp. 150% rarity on the ritualist.
Before patch I was finally able to consistently farm rarity omen rolled maps, with some abyss mods my build can handle, like mana siphoning and the easy ones. Now, after patch, I cant even finish the easy maps I did before. Breach fire ball? Dead Random explosions on my feet? Dead Any boss attack? 1/3 chance to be Dead Abyss green beam? Dead Chill during a breach? Dead Krosis? Omnniphobia? Dead I`ve been trying to tweak my build since the update, without success. Trying lowering the map juice, still die horrible after 2~3maps, to something weird. I get that defensive layers are up to your and necessary to scale endgame rewards, but now I'm stuck after being able to consistently do something, that feels so bad that I don't want to play anymore. Also, market and drops are very weird at this point in league. It might be just luck and the lack of it, but before patch I was getting more omens, more divs, more chaos from all sources, now its just exalts and ocasional good bases. And very important, I have tried up to 150% rarity on my char and as different map setups but drops are horrible (keep dying on every setup, ritual, breach, deli, rarity/quantiti omens). I love the idea of the patch, removing the tower functionality and such. But before the patch my mind was blown by this game, I was having a blast, so much fun. Now it feels really really bad. I hope next league is better. Last edited by heavyjg#5537 on Oct 4, 2025, 10:52:08 PM

They nerfed evasion and this seems to happen a lot more to low health builds.

almost lv 99.... but at almost negative exp gain post patch. Decided to be done with the league today and come back next league. Too many game breaking bugs as well. I am tired.

Been playing Evasion builds since 0.1 and I honestly think that's the worst version of them right now.
It'll probably be the last time as long as they don't change something. Every time I'll keep telling myself that life is viable with enough investment into defenses, but right now it just isn't anymore. I'm at a point where I don't think increasing evasion any more will change anything. I can't really increase deflection, being at 80% already. I can't increase life much more, being at ~2,4k. I just added 100% blind to my build and getting ready for increased blind effect, but I just don't see the value. Getting enemies blinded means I have to hit them before they hit me and that's not possible at all times. Since 0.3.1 I just get one shot seemingly out of nowhere, once in a few maps. Granted those are 6mod corrupted maps, some with additional damage mods and reduced max res/penetration, but I ran those just fine before the update. I've even started recording my maps because I can't figure out what kills me. (it seems to be just random attacks/projectiles) Additionally having map bosses in every map just sucks for evasion builds. If u make a mistake just once, u lose the map and potential waystone drops. Well, I think next time I gotta hop on the EV/ES train finally. PoE2 0.3 Character: https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/abyss/character/Sadaukar-2191/Acidic_Sadaukar
