Typical "balance" Rather than improve underperforming minions just delete the good one everybody uses.

So pack size is gone, will a t16 map be pretty empty with white mobs with life totals like bosses? I thought it 49% more life but it's actually just effectiveness that grows as go higher in tier maps, but doesn't add one mob to the map? Did you guys actually compare t16s to t16s with these pack size changes?


Should be pretty obvious after a full year that they don't actually play their own game. Sure, the devs claim they play but their version of playing is probably to use an admin account to make a level XX character with specific pieces of gear and then play for like 5 minutes to see if the game still runs.

No logic in your post sadly.


I'm too left brain'd to even reply to some rubbish like this.
Maybe you're more on the right brain spectrum.

We have 150-200k players in poe1 leagues. They obviously cant hand poe1 development to some "passionate" company, because they making money, big money im pretty sure.
You should not forget, that majority of poe2 players are poe1 players. So doesnt matter if new poe2 players are sick of us, poe1 players. And if majority doesnt like something, then we have a big problem. Bad poe1 league, then bad poe2 league = less money earned. Less money earned = big guys up there concerned. And after that we know what usually happens, questionable decisions in short.
Yes we have vast amount of content in poe1, but does it matter if its nerfed to the ground? Thats why you can see people complaining. No one likes nerfs you know.


How do you know? Are you THE businessman, to decide whether it would be a good move or not to hand poe 1 over to another dev team? I'm not saying it should leave tencent, cause obviously they are the ones who get the bigger junk of the cashflow.

But if GGG would focus only on the future of poe, which - 100% is poe 2 and not poe 1, then it would benefit poe 2 for sure, and maybe even poe 1, although I don't care what happens with poe 1 at this point, as I said I'm over with that game.

How are you the one to know that 'the majority of poe 2 players are from poe 1'? lol
Like who are you to come and act like you spit facts, when it's obvious that you don't have the specific information on it, you most likely heard that from some streamer and believed it immediately.

And even if it was true, it absolutely doesn't matter, my point is, you poe 1 players that love to downplay poe 2 even if it gets better, just because you are not satisfied with your favorite game aka poe 1.

The guys who manage this forum should start to clean up those 'hate driven' posts coming from poe 1 players, cause social media is powerful and a lot of hate can influence many people quickly in a negative way. And that's not how it should be here.
The forum should be a place where people are here because they love path of exile, no matter if it's poe 1 or poe 2, and because they wanna support the devs and if so - then give constructive feedback.

Imagine having a partner coming home all the time, bashing you for not doing things according to their point of view? Even though you know inside, that you are trying your best and are putting in a lot of work. Is that a fun place to be in?

Like I saw a bit of raxx's stream for the 0.4 live stream and people in his chat were pretty angry and you could see it in his face, that he wasn't happy about that.

Let things happen and wait, the league hasn't even started. Just need to be patient for once and go with the flow. You might like it, when you thought you didn't. And you can always just choose to do something else if you think your time matters more than playing this game.

I'm sure you'll figure stuff out as you go and keep going.
Patchnotes look great. Cant wait to jump in with my chonk ideas.

That said, its time for swords daggers and axes. Please try to get shadow and duelist in next patch. And i say that while templar is my favorite poe1 class.

Dayoum, i wonder why? Maybe because after awful poe1 league they wanted to have fun in poe2, especially after all the hype? But hype was killed after they've opened patch notes?
And im pretty sure Raxx was unhappy too, you could see it. But he couldnt say it for obvious reasons.

Decisions as idiotic as using endurance charges or power to launch a totem prove that the leadership doesn't understand the game and that io doesn't even play it, otherwise he'd find it boring like everyone else! His vision of the game with its combos is flawed, and we've been saying it for a year! He's ruining all the fun of the game when it could be amazing... WE DON'T WANT TO BE FORCED TO USE CRAPPY COMBOS, and he'll have to understand and accept that eventually!


I want to use crappy combos. Go play to PoE1

I just need swords at this point...

That's what I'm saying. You are unhappy with the poe 1 league, then come to poe 2 streams and forums and bash it, before the league has even started.

The patch notes are bad, that is your personal conclusion? And some poe 1 players share your conclusion? Fine.
Still, the league hasn't started yet. You can not tell right now how the game will feel in a week from now or beyond that in 0.4.

The druid looks cool, from the new footage. Lots to explore, don't you think so?

Raxx actually was positive about some things, and unlike many, he can put himself in the position to feel for the devs and their hard work, and that when they say, they had to spend a lot of time working on a class, that is like having multiple classes in 1,
he is the type of person to understand that, and because of shortage of time, they couldn't deliver as much for the endgame as they might have wished for.

Did Raxx like everything he heard or read in the patch notes? Well probably not.
How is that to expect from someone?... This is ridiculous.
And he tries to help improving the game by giving genuine feedback.

Unlike others who are just seeking for their next dopamine rush and if they don't get it the way they wanna get it, they just fully hate everything.

They still give us players plenty of new stuff. They still changed a lot of things.
No player can be happy with every aspect of the game or a new patch. Unless probably it's an enlightened or close to that state kind of person.

I got stuff too that I don't fully appreciate. But I can look over that, because there are a lot of other things that I think are really nice to have and to play with.

You cannot yet tell, that the league is gonna be bad. Stop letting this mentality grow inside of yourself. This doesn't benefit anything nor anyone, not even yourself.
