Literally release a 30 second edgy cinematic that ends with an updated PoE: Ascendancy logo and 'Q1 2016', and then gradually tease a few pieces of concept art between now and the end of February, and then finally dumping a gameplay trailer around Valentine's Day for a March 4th release date, with pre-patching starting March 1st.

>>123320923
an "alpha" is when you're still implementing features (PS you don't need other people here, this is done entirely in an IDE).
a "beta" is when you test the shit you made (This would be where you invite other people to both use it normally to find usability and balance issues, as well as play like a psycho on coke to try and find any weird issues)
a "gamma" is a pre-release build that you'd put out for final quality assurance testing after all of your gameplay and mechanics changes have been made
and a "gold" state is the final public release

please don't call anything where balance is the goal an alpha, because at that stage you're beyond the alpha point in development.

Alpha version describes a development status that usually means the first complete version of a program or application, which is most likely unstable, but is useful to show what the product will do to, usually, a selected group.

The Alpha releases aren't available to public, only to a select chosen few. It being called Alpha is correct.Have you even done software testing you fucking kek?

Since talismans are corrupted, only rares will be useful.
With that in mind, do you think talisman rarity is effected by IIR? I want to know if its worth going heavy MF this league or not.

Other mobs can pick the talisman up, so they very likely would just re-drop the original. But the initial drop might be effected by IIR.

It would be nice if we could get a closed, secured, cheat free platform, just for PC gaming so that bots and hacks were a thing of the past. I imagine this issue is going to become central once VR/AR becomes the norm people will get tired of hacks and shit ruining their immershun and that will be the end of piracy and simultaneously the rise of games completely not existing in physical form and costing hundreds of dollars a month with mtx for everything you can imagine.

You mean just like it is now in real life how we all have an identity and are legally bound by law and thus we have no crime?

No, the only solution is to move everything outside of our hands, in a closed, secure platform such as the cloud. I don't like it but it's the future, We had the chance to prove ourselves with LAN gaming and we blew it. Enjoy you're shit future, you earned it.

identity-enforced liability means a ban would work not on your ip, but on your identity

ie. get banned on a game by certain game dev, and you are banned on all their games. and if they have agreements with other companies, you could banned in their games too

until you pay your fine. this has no rl equivalent (yet) and if it did, it would be a bit orwellian (which may likely happen in a police state anyway)

closed platforms exist already, they are called consoles

Are you claiming there's something wrong with that? PC's can upgrade their hardware. Taking the positive side of consoles to create a secure platform for PC gaming would be a good thing. You could still load up your shit OS for everything else. But a closed binary blob that gets updated every week to close loopholes would be the perfect solution. But it's more likely that everything just gets moved into the cloud. It's better for all the greedy shitheads ruining the world.

>closed, secure platform such as the cloud
Games like Path of Exile are already played remotely, with server-side verification of everything you do. Cheating comes from the client side, and as a client, whether we're connected to one or many servers isn't an important distinction. If you plan on introducing client machines into the butt, then it stops being closed and secure.

In essence, what you're talking about is having the client be paper-thin, like the VAX terminals of yore, but how does a server on the butt verify that a client computer is a thin terminal rather than a general purpose computer in disguise? Everything required to verify the thin client's identity has to be in the client somehow, so it's always possible to reverse engineer that identity. Much like how Blu-ray encryption hasn't held out, because the disk has to be decrypted on the machine you're using, so the security isn't actually very strong.

>Cheating comes from the client side
That's exactly why you lock down the platform the client runs on so that they can't run anything but the games they're playing on it. It would require investment in a great deal of additional hardware just to cheat, all of which would be regularly subjected to being rendered obsolete. This would be far beyond the scope of the subset of players currently cheating on PC. Just think for a second, how many people run bots on the PS4? It's virtually unheard of.

>Everything required to verify the thin client's identity has to be in the client somehow, so it's always possible to reverse engineer that identity
That's exactly why you have regular binary updates. Reverse engineering takes time and regular updates will ensure their previous work is constantly nullified. It would be almost pointless to look for loopholes knowing the method used for obtaining them would be broken every week.

it's no more costly than steam releasing beta client updates every other day. if you make an OS that becomes the de facto standard gaming platform because it's the only secure platform in the world you're going to have a shitload of money to update a few files each week.

PS4 is the largest console platform out right now and those are two AAA games. quantify "cater to" please.

>that already exists. they are consoles and you can still cheat on them

consoles aren't designed specifically to combat the blight that is cheating on PC gaming. it would have to be a platform designed specifically with, say, competitive gaming in mind but could be for any game that wants a secure platform.

>100% bulletproof security isnt technically feasible
it doesn't need to be and there's no such thing.. it just needs to be a lot less accessible than it currently is on PC.

and I should add that no, you can't. you can cheat and get banned for using a modded controller, you can mod your console and not be able to connect to their servers. you can hack saves and not be able to play on any premium service. but the amount of functional hacks that don't get immediately banned on the premium services are slim to none.

Since I prefer to talk about real things that actually happen, Blu-ray encryption constantly has new keys being generated, and they're broken just as quickly because it has to be locally decrypted.

Botting is primarily about understanding the network traffic of the game, and it has basically the same problem, that network traffic always has to be comprehensible to a client that you have physical access to. The only way the server can vet what your ethernet cable is plugged in to is via network protocols---handshaking and the like---but when you have physical access, you can always play man in the middle. So what do you think your binary blobs will contain, and do you think your blob developers will have more time on their hands than the forces of botting?

I don't know if anyone actually cares enough to go through all this trouble with consoles. I do think people would go through the trouble with persistent online games on PC, because gold selling is very lucrative for certain people who don't mind jumping through technical hoops.

But then they also don't have to go through an auth server and be subjected to an official legit check as a console like PC game platform would be.

The same for your second example. Whatever you're thinking could be used to craft a bot would be easily detectable and banned.

>I don't know if anyone actually cares enough to go through all this trouble with consoles
We definitely know they do. There's a market for this stuff outside of the premium servers where they get banned. They play on modded servers and modded consoles instead.

i haven't played it, but if devilian follows the trend of previous trion games, it will have server capacity issues for a week and unless you pay them money you won't be able to play. when Archeage released everybody who didn't pay for Patron had to wait in queues for 8-12hrs. also, the game will have some sort of "labor" system that prevents you from progressing at a competitive pace unless, again, you pay them more money. it will more than likely also some kind of home/base/hideout/whatever that you can only buy with money that also gives you bonuses like earning gold, items, experience, whatever. the game is guaranteed to be p2w in more than a few ways.

trion also has a bad habit of lying to people. they have no problem pissing off massive hordes of people. do NOT give them your money. you will regret it

but, the game will probably be fun to play even for f2p players. it is free after all

Fixed Pricing, the savior of PoE's broken RMT driven and anti competitive game economy

>What is fixed pricing?
Fixed pricing is in simple terms a method to predetermine and assign a currency value to everything in the game, including the value of currency itself at a pseudo, "fixed" price in order to eliminate game cancers. For example: the third party real money trading of items. RMT of items is virtually eliminated by making all exchanges of items forced through the trade window with a predetermined fixed price attached to it. In order to determine a fixed price, a predetermined currency valuation system will be assigned to the following: affixes based on tiers and rolls low-high, maximum Sockets (<max = no/min value), maximum Links (<max = no/min value), Vaal Corruptions, Item Level, Item Base and socket color extremity. Each mod will be assigned a currency value corresponding to its RNG which reflects the probability of each Valuated mod occurring. The same system will be used for Maps, Flasks, Cards -- anything that can be traded.

Some other problems curbed by fixed pricing include the ability to effectively bot, scams, hacks, multiboxing and unfair hand outs

Naturally some players think that fixed pricing wouldn't work and here are some common misconceptions about it, problems and solutions.

>The economy wouldn't accurately reflect the price of newly discovered builds and powerful items
Fixed pricing doesn't mean the price of an item can't fluctuate and adapt to a market. The value of all items can be tracked and players would be able to price any item within a small variable percentage of its fixed value. The fixed value could update each day or possibly hour, second or at any determined time interval. This would allow the price of items to meet supply and demand. To prevent market manipulation, fixed price trade values would only count once per item per day or otherwise a determined value and time interval. So you couldn't, say, trade the same item over and over again to control its value, it would only be tracked at a determined interval.

>Players wouldn't be able to help their friend by giving them items
This is true however players overall will be able to trade much more efficiently than before since the vast majority of the leg work is taken out of trade, with the bulk of the price already being determined. This in turn gives players more time to actually play the game. A player won't have to weigh the time it takes to trade vs running a map since the price is largely established.

Alternately, a system like that employed in Diablo 3 could be a solution to the problem, whereby players can give items to other players who were in the party at the time they were found in, "group found" items in other words. The idea being to encourage players playing together rather than annoying begging and hand outs. Unlike Diablo 3, players would still be able to trade everything they find with anyone anytime outside of the party.

>Players won't buy my item, it will be too expensive
Just as it is in the current system, players won't buy shitty items. If your item is desired, players will buy it and the price will continue to adapt to reflect the market value. And the price of everything is relative. An item can't be too expensive or too cheap, it can be worth precisely what the market will bear.

>Players will be discouraged from selling their item
Just as in the current system, players will need currency and items, which will prove to be a sufficient market mover. And just as in the current system, players may choose to buy low and sell high. The key difference here is ripping players off will be far more difficult.

>Players will still RMT items, they'll just include the fixed price in the cost
That's fine as the market condition is still being met. If players want to pay real money on top of the fixed price when they could buy it without paying any real money to a legitimate player, so be it. They still will have to have the full currency value of the item, thus satisfying the market condition. No harm, no foul.

>This is no different than a vendor
As stated above, unlike a vendor, fixed pricing allows prices to fluctuate to meet supply and demand whereas a vendor's price is always fixed and may be too low or too high based on the current meta, fixed pricing is not as the price fixing is based on a supply and demand player controlled price.

>>123392990
And? Why is everyone complaining? Just write your own shit and set it to notify you whenever some idiot lists a god-tier item for cheap, or lists an item that can easily be master crafted to be amazing for just a couple exalts, or, god forbid, lists a mirror for under 30 ex. Shit happens more often than you'd think. Take advantage of the lack of auction houses and set prices. Doesn't take but a few hours and you're rolling in all the currency you'd ever want.

I considered it, but witch is REALLY inefficient, and loses a lot in terms of health pool, damage, and requires an active skill to maintain life on block. Additionally, I REALLY want to use the corrupted legacy Anvil I have. It is something to consider being a block based witch, but having to manually maintain life on block seems a bit too tedious for me.

this would probably be good. i just realized the base cast speed is .5 which is ridiculously fast. blade vortex will definitely be an 'added damage' kind of spell, especially when you can reach over 10 second duration

the fucked up part, is that save for a CoC setup, 2x totems may end up being better if the aoe is as awkward as it seems it will be, if only because now you have 2x coverage

if it works with echo then totems will probably suck. if it doesnt work with echo then totems might be best

nope.

read this from the diablo 2 wiki,

>Diablo II runs at 25 frames per second. The /fps will only display 25 (or less) on single player. On multiplayer it will display however fast your machine can handle.
>Values above 25 have no affect on game performance, since the game only updates every 1/25 seconds.
>A machine that displays at 150 FPS will not differ in any way from one that displays at 25 FPS

game looks fucking awfull. fyi diablo 3 has the same limitation only it's capped at 60 fps instead of 25. i wonder how the beelzebub mod makers got diablo 1 to render correctly at 60 fps. i'd love to see a diablo 2 mod do the same.
>>
>>123430529
Yep, that's why I asked. You can see the difference between starting singleplayer and, say, creating a LAN game - move your cursor around the inventory, click on the items, etc. With 25fps it's very.. unsettling. With multiplayer it's easily detectable to be smoother. The wiki actually talks about the inner mechanics (like fcr/frw/fhr/fbr breakpoints) being fixed at 25fps.

>You can see the difference between starting singleplayer and, say, creating a LAN game - move your cursor around the inventory, click on the items, etc

No actually, you can't. You may be able to feel the difference as there will be less input latency but everything you see on screen only renders 25 frames, in multiplayer and in singleplayer. What you see is exactly the same in both.

It really sucks if you ever played a game on a CRT monitor, a VR headset or a low persistence LCD monitor you need the game the render the exact same number of frames as the refresh rate or the game will look like shit. It can look okay if it renders many more frames than the refresh rate but generally speaking you want the framerate to be locked to the refresh rate. In Diablo 2 that's pretty much impossible unless you have an old 24hz tv and then you will probably suffer from eye strain if you do from all the flickering, You need a bare minimum of 60 fps but really that's not enough.

after hours of research into blade vortex, i've determined that stacking increased aoe, increased duration and cast speed is the best option.

but now, i can't decided if scaling spell damage would be better than simply using added damage(from support gems, wands, etc)

and also the biggest challenge will be staying tanky enough to survive t10+ maps. i think getting VP is obvious, but that alone won't be enough to save you from one shots.

CoC would be an option, but how do you get enough crit, aoe, duration, cast speed, survivability AND the volls devotion? idk famz
>>
>>123431861
I was talking specifically about the cursor lag, which is a big deal in such a game. And you can easily see the difference between SP and LAN, and how the fuck SP would get 'more input latency'? I mean, think about what you wrote.

The glide creator said that 25fps lock was because of the busy wait implementation, however it can be circumvented for processes like mouse drivers. How can you not see the fucking mouse lag in SP and how it is absent in MP.

Ah, I see what you mean now. I don't normally use Glide but if you use Glide, the mouse cursor does indeed render smoothly but everything else is still a blurry 25 FPS turd so to me, it's meaningless. Have a good day.
>>
>>123434860
but RF kinda sucks because you can't do a lot of map mods like -max, vuln, half regen, shocking ground, etc

and i think the best way to scale BV will be with crit or added damage. the spell's damage looks pretty low by itself

I've already played Diablo 2 in every mode. The mouse cursor isn't what keeps me from playing. It's that the game is rendered at 25 FPS so everything looks like blurry shit. Mouse cursor doesn't change that.

Diablo 1 Beelzebub mod on the other hand..holy shit. They made the entire game run smoothly at 60 FPS, not just the mouse cursor but all the animations, item text labels, backgrounds, everything and at 1080p with zoom.. I wish someone would make a mod like that for Diablo 2

Maybe it's because you have a huge-ass monitor and are sitting too close to it? I specifically keep my 17' 5:4 for older games.
Anyway, if you (and hundreds of thousands) have played D2 with no issues, maybe something has changed in your pc setup. Or you have grown up picky and whiny. Or developed some eyesight problems (not to say that lower fps couldn't be an issue for others). Or you are comparing it to something silkysmooth and thus are annoyed by the difference.

man it must be pretty stressful to be constantly parsing all modern rpgs for something that fulfills your "the best" clause. do you also apply that to poe builds? shit man, you must really love poe to play the same couple builds for 2 years now

i just play what seems interesting or entertaining at a given time
>>
>>123478610
I feel that the progression in PoE is so tedious though. D3's progression feels a lot better, both content and gearwise. PoE does have its charm in terms of how it approaches classes, but the inconsistent difficulty, the repetitiveness of the game, and the unpolished feel of how the game feels really hold it back. Not to mention the poor balance.

No... What the fuck kind of logic is that? I play the best game because investing time in multiple arpgs is not possible if you also want to have other hobbies. Investing time in multiple builds is far easier. I mostly play hipster shit, unless bow builds are extremely popular(not PA).

haven't been able to test it in a party because of the patch but there is a lot of improvement. i can tell just by doing a dried lake run. no more stuttering, no more frame drops, game doesnt freeze when people load in with tons of MTX, temps seem to be cooler, etc

AMD also just cut prices on ALL of their GPUs... it's like fucking christmas right now

>>
>>123500615
huh my only problem was the framerate is utter shit in certain maps and in groups and that was a common problem on both amd and nvidia. my system flies in every other game besides poe and diablo 3. both games and gpus suffer from clusterfuckery. i'll remain skeptical but i'm sure some of the hitching must have been improved by their shader performance. that's not the issue.
>>
>>123500956
I have never had FPS problems with any game before except for poe. Party is unplayable. Cant play discharge or coc. Cant play HC. Opening rogue strongboxes or running beyond maps are a huge gamble every time.

Pretty annoying people are doing this, you having to stop mapping or leveling whatever the fuck you're busy with and trying to bargain for a small amount as a measily 5c. I don't list anything below 5c, if you want to buy something better pay the fuck up or get the fuck out.

Hello from Brazil!
Many people are disappointed with the value proposition of these new supporter packs. While I am personally very pleased with the new effects, and handled the pricing myself, I am very ready to admit I was wrong.
We will be adding portal effects to the two lowest packs and will be creating new weapon effects to go in all packs (four tiers total). Like with other recent packs, higher packs include all lower effects.
The team are hard at work on these new effects and we'll unveil them as soon as we can (next week?).
All packs purchased now will of course retroactively have the new effects added to them once they are ready.
Thanks again for your great support and the positive comments about the new packs. They just got a lot more tempting, I hope!

that speed damage control though.

Idk Blizzard games have been kind of crap. The stories have absolutely no depth regardless of where you look and are basically spoonfed and very forced.

Diablo 3 was horrid, SC 2 actually had good gameplay but it wasn't a very memorable RTS for me compared to other RTS games I played before. WoW has been shit halfway through wrath when they decided to add a lot of dungeon finders and casualize the community to the point it doesn't even feel like a MMO anymore.

"Hardcore" players disgust me. I'm a Standard Challenge League player and I'm sick to death of you ignorant bastards. For starters, no, I will not post my skilltree. I don't see how any of you have the right to tell another player to get "naked", you dogs might see us new players as flesh for your pleasure but NOTHING gives you the right to bully someone just because you believe that you're stronger or better You describe Standard players as keks quite frankly I'm enraged by this, if I ever heard you say this word in real life I would punch you so hard you'll be in a coma for the next month.

What gives you the right to think that you can tell us what to do? I will never be ordered around by a "hardcore" player. Actually I'm so passionate about this I managed to get this asshole guy banned from /poeg/ for making leagueist comments about me. Now he learnt his lesson.

I weep for a world without elitist players, a paradise. Without elitist "hardcore" players there would be no cyberbullying, no online abuse and everyone would be treated equally.

Unfortunately I can see my utopia happening anytime soon but I warn you, Standard 4chan groups are still fighting for equality and thanks to Ellen Pao, in the future society might not be quite so lenient on you chauvinistic bastards.
>>
>>123512081
No I actually usually buy the item.

If I'm farther in a league I don't really mind paying +/- 4c on items I won't haggle that much I will care more about buying or actually selling items as they take up space I'm more pushed to sell items since most mid tier items just keep losing their value in a league.

>>123512156
I don't know the game feels very.... dead while it has a lot of players it feels like there is no community which is odd for a MMO. I play on a high pop realm and trade + global chat is empty everywhere with sometimes the odd message.

They made a lot of mistakes near the end of Wrath that kind of destroyed the game. They removed most build diversity by homogenizing classes and gear. Then they added a lot of menus so you don't have to interact with anyone. It extended to everything so you never have to interact with anyone playing the game even if you want to do the highest difficulty raids (mythic) you don't really have to talk anymore and just go to the global group finder from my experience. Also for some reason everyone who plays pvp now plays alliance ( 97-98% of the leaderboard is alliance). Not sure what Blizz did to fuck pvp up so badly.

>>123512483
Cast on death 20/20 six linked strategy.

I never really understood why hardcore challenge league highest level players are always above standard league players. Standard league levels a lot easier because you don't have to fear a rip, a 10% xp loss sucks but whatever at lv 90+ its just 2-3 maps, rather than 3 playthroughs + 100 maps. Even worse if you have the odd death that happens in hardcore due to lagg or a game freeze (like I had in the 1 month league on my crit shadow.

This game is quite amazing though. I don't play it all the time but the amount of work the devs put in is far better than with most of the more mainstream games. Like BlizzardActivision or EA.

>>123509830
The portal effect from 220 is cool though. The gargoyles look pretty much the same until the 440 pack.

The soundtrack files I find pretty odd since you can just rip them. Or find them on youtube. Some soundtracks are very good from PoE though. The voice acting is always very well done in this game.

I don't really find these supporter packs all that terrible. Of course they remain optional supporter packs.

It has nothing to do with feelings being hurt, it has to do with the absurdity of the viewpoint in the first place, the hivemind hate towards anyone not in hardcore being a pall of negativity that overtook every thread, and the fact that it has nothing to do with salt or feels, but with the basic respect so many of us feel we don't need to show just because it's the internet and the people we're being assholes to have no power to do anything about it. Not to mention that thinking you're better than others on some special level that matters, just because your character hasn't died is, itself, incredibly childish, and frankly, just absurdly stupid in my opinion.

Not because you're proud of your accomplishment, but because just like all the other people we make fun of for this, you absolutely feel the need to tell the world about it at every possible opportunity, just in a negative light through bashing others.

There's no way any of the hardcore elitist haters would talk like that to someone in real life, and the principle of both reddiquette and basic fucking human decency still apply on the internet, and choosing not to follow them continues to make you an asshole, just like it does when you're not on the internet. You're welcome, of course, to not care at all about that, but this is, after all, a public forum for discussion, not narcissism, and quite simply, the non-hardcore players are the overwhelming majority.

There's good cause to say that the insulting, itself, is the issue, regardless of what exactly it is, because even ignoring how the targeted victim "feels", it's unproductive shitposting at its finest.

YEAH grreat idea my NZ friend ill get on it right away. and thus they created this new act 4 piece of shit piety boss. her stupid fucking lazer is completely unavoidable and have now way to dodge it and unless you are over 5k hp you will die in one hit. YEAH good job. the only way to get away from it is hope you can click on your portal fas enough to get out. YEAH nice fucking boss where we have to use a teleport and a loading screen as a survival tactic. so stupid. and i knwo you "omg im liek the most hardcore GAMUR eVRRR" faggots post here. like seriously fuck you, you have ruined this game for me. i used to have fun rolling through this game now my character has lost an entire 80% of my level AND i fucking died like 10 times raising my death count to shitter status when that doesnt reflect how i truely play this game the majority of the time not dieing. god fuck off with this BS. its this stupid mentality of this place and the "lol no playing HXD XXDDD" and all the little reddit tier faggots who reply aka give them upboats XDDD. I feel like the majority of you play default leagues but are just so desperate for attention and validation because you lack any real social skilsl you pretend to be one of these hardcore assholes. well congratulations your hardcore bullshit has poisoned this game and turned it into a shitfest. i really hope your fucking happy because everyone of you who went along with the "omg LE EPIC difficulty, HARDCORE GAMERS such as MYSELF" bullshit killed this game. so mad i have three level 90 toons now who cant even clear act 4 because you keks and your "muh hardcore" BS.

How do you have lv 90 characters that can't do Piety on merciless? What kind of garbage build did you make that can't handle it?

Her auto attack damage is more of a problem than her laser if you're playing melee.

Besides if you have movement speed boots with +25-30% you shouldn't really have any difficulty. I really enjoyed the way they made act 4 though it gives more challenge since the game did become kind of easy, especially if you ran the OP meta builds.

>>123516720
Why? Only Malachai was a bit overpowered for the rest act 4 release was smooth and pretty well done.

If they postponed it by a week it would've been slightly better as little details would've been more complete (and Malachai more fine tuned).

Overall I thought act 4 was very well done, areas like mines and arenas of Daresso are my favs.

I would like to start this off by saying that this is in no way a post that is meant to talk about softcore vs hardcore in terms of which is better. Everyone plays PoE in their own way, and I totally respect that.

What this post does talk about however, is a middle ground player like myself who plays softcore but with a harcore mentality. What does this mean? It means that when I approach a build I am far more concerned about my character staying alive and having very low deaths, then I am playing glass cannon. Again this is just a playstyle choice.

Medium core players will have more life on tree, and opt for safer builds, also we approach the playstyle a little slower and we are not even afraid to logout just for good mechanical practice.

I have been playing PoE for 2 years (since late beta) and in that time I have never been able to play hardcore. I have always had unreliable internet, and for whatever reason PoE has FPS spikes on my computer. Additionally I have a family (3 young children), who cannot be ignored while playing. I have tried hardcore but have had too many deaths that were related to the above factors.

I wanted to reach out to other players who approach the game like me, and be able to share thoughts about how to play the "Medium Core" playstyle effectively.

So to get the discussion going, I would like to ask you how much room you give yourselves in terms of Survivablity vs decisions to use items like Abyssus. I am currently playing a Crit Reaver in Warbands, and I am trying to make Abyssus work while mitigating as much physical damage as possible. But I always find these kinds of things challenging because, I hate having my characters life spike. Obviously I dont play hardcore, but I watch hardcore streamers to try to see how they can both prioritize defenses while having good clear speeds. Thank you all!

It was actually fun and dual strike was viable.

I remember just getting wings of entropy, all the dual wield block nodes and a bringer of rain for block cap, then I also got a rainbowstride and stone of lahzwar for spell block.

The major weakness of that build was that my armor was bleh, which I later fixed by changing my build around, getting slightly under capped block but with a lightning coil (with 40% to lightning at the time) and a different helmet.

Hi, my name is Chris Wilson from Grinding Gear Games. With the next content update 2.1 we will make changes to how Softcore characters interact with death. We feel like players are dying far to often and since you can't loose a level, dying over and over while trying to kill certain bosses has become a legit strategy.

Upon the 2.1. content update you will have to pay in-game currency to resurrect your character. If you can't pay the required currency your char will be locked. You can always start a new character and farm the required amount. These are the price tiers we will be implementing:

Character-level 1-35: free
Character-level 36-45: 1 chaos orb
Character-level 46-55: 3 chaos orbs
Character-level 56-65: 5 chaos orbs
Character-level 66-75: 10 chaos orbs
Character-level 76-85: 20 chaos orbs
Character-level 85-100: 1 exalted orb

As always we are very keen to hear your thoughts about the new system.

with every death you get a shitcrow stack, basically a crow that flies around you and cawing every once in a while. Of cause with further deaths, you will get more and more shitcrow stacks until the cawing will become more and more annoying.
When you reached the maximum number of 100 shitcrows your character becomes walking scarecrow sourounded by 100 crows cawing constantly while you deal 0 dmg to enemies.

Yeah I wanted to build a character around e-shield the minute I found an item with that. But first I will probably power through at least cruel mode, or level my char to 100 and use it as a grind char or something. Is there anything essential not available to cheap cunts like me who don't plan to spend money on the game?
What are these league things?

Just started the hideout thingy. This will come in handy.

Oh, and sorry if I seem a bit spoonfeedy, I am at work right now and don't have much time to actually look shit up so I am just asking some essential questions here.

>Level 100

Not likely, on a first character I'd be surprised if you got past 60.

>Essential fuckery
Not really unless you want to be a trade tycoon. Stash tabs are the only gameplay-affecting thing you can buy.

>Leagues
There are two permanent leagues: Standard and Hardcore. There are also shorter duration leagues, such as the current Darkshrine leagues and on the very short side, races. Characters in different leagues cannot interact in any way other than by chatting: you have separate stashes, hideouts, the lot. it's a fresh start for everyone involved to join a temporary league.
Temporary leagues usually have different mechanics than permanent ones - the Darkshrine leagues have all shrines corrupted so you can sacrifice items on them and receive an effect based on that.

Darkshrine and Darkshrine HC end on the 8th of December, so unless you have a burning desire to try them you can safely wait until the next set of leagues start on the 11th.

I waffled a bit, but there you go.

>Yeah I wanted to build a character around e-shield the minute I found an item with that

just be sure you don't spec into chaos Inoculation to soon. ES is not really a recommended play style for beginners and you will probably need to trade for stuff, good ES gear is kinda hard to get. And read up the mechanics

>But first I will probably power through at least cruel mode, or level my char to 100 and use it as a grind char or something

level 100 is not a goal you should set yourself too soon, the grind is brutal and only a very small percentage of players ever did it. level 80-90 is more appropriate. Most characters are finished till then.

Also your first char will probably start to suck once you reach merciless. This happened to all of us. Just learn the mechanics and make a new one, you can always follow a guide

>Is there anything essential not available to cheap cunts like me who don't plan to spend money on the game?

there are no p2w mechanics or payed content in PoE. But you will probably want to have more stash space later on. They are on sale once a month (?)

>What are these league things?
Short term(3-months) new realms. Everyone starts from scratch in those. This is where the real game is at. You should always play in the new leagues. The economy is better. Also there are new special properties/game modes/items in those.

Thanks, you guys!

I figured my char actually sucks ass, I only sporadically looked at skill tree guides at the beginning. I just now learnt what an endurance charge is, for example. I also set a skill point on something that benefits auras, but stopped using my aura due to needing mana for my static strike, or skilled gladiator that gives you accuracy but then skilled the thing that makes your attacks always hit but never crit, stuff like that. Typical noob mistakes I suppose.

How does the skill point reclaiming work? Can I reclaim a skill point but keep all the points behind it on the skill tree? (Essentially splitting my skill tree into two non-connected parts.)

>Can I reclaim a skill point but keep all the points behind it on the skill tree?

no, you can only reclaim the last points, i.e. you always have to create a legit skill tree. You get 17 free respec points while playing the game and doing the side quests. Also there are orb of regrets, which can drop. Each gives one respec point when you right click them. You can also trade for them.

As a marauder, stick with resolute technique(the never-miss-never-crit node) and respec out of accuracy. Also take all the sweet life nodes, all of them(every single one). Damage is easier to get later on through gear

lightning warp makes traps irrelevant.

>>
>>123552123
Alright. I planned to pull out Devotion, since I don't want to lock half my mana behind a relatively modest aura when my main attack burns mana like no tomorrow, but then I think I will have to go through INT-territorry to get some of the elemental damage ups I am now aiming at. I guess this is not viable then, I will go for the life clusters.

>>123552436
mh, keep devotion, that is a good node. You want to use auras (you need hatred). Go through the elemental damage nodes to the aoe nodes, you want them when you go static strike.

Mana leech is in a pretty bad spot right now, but it still helps. You can also use a good mana pot. I will probably be online a bit this weekend if you need help

>>123553893
Alright, thanks. I'll see what I can do when I'm home.

I got some mana leach with my gear I think, plus I got the Shiversting unique sword, though that only leeches mana from physical damage.

But I think my main priority right now should be going for endurance charges since I completely ignored them until now.

I'll send you a friend request later, thanks.

you remember all those big mmos in the mid and early 2000's?

with complex raids/pvpwars/dungeons/world bosses where actual coordination and communication made it possible to do shit no char could even remotely hope to do solo?

well those games died for the most part. or game devs ramped up char progression so much that all shit that took skill/coordination eventually only took a single or couple chars completely maxxed out chars. and so people left those games. and the new games poped up introduced shit like instances and non-competitive gameplay measures like eliminating quest bosses or massive pvp, which took a lot of the edge off

dota and the like are the only thing that provide that kind of gameplay experience these days, so they are popular

How do we fix the trade system?

Is cross-instance trading all we need?
Should we have an integrated version of poe.trade with more options?
Should GGG just give up and make an auction house?
>>
>>123611095
just fix poe.trade and then integrate it so it can easily be used without having to go through the forums and make a shop and all that crap

cross instance trading or a more interactive version of an AH would take away development effort from the new league's mtx, so its not gonna gappen

So, let me get this straight, the actual "trading" in this game is basically just spending hours in the trading chat yelling your offers until someone sends you a PM?

What the fuck do I have to do to respawn dead monsters in an area? I just joined some public parties to see if anyone was up to some coop, but all those faggots do is chat and be in different places. But since my party killed all the mops in the place I need to traverse now I have nothing to kill, even after leaving the party.

What do I do? I even restarted the damn game and those fucks are still dead.

I'm not a neet so it's not that bad

plus the stuff I buy just helps my character, I like feeling powerful. I'm not really good at the game so sometimes I feel a bit weak.

what ever you need to justify your retarded purchase of way too many standard league exalts

>>123617739
that's not in game trading.
>>
>>123616781
Why would you use increased duration? You only have 50 max charges and they deplete a charge on hit. Did you forget it does physical damage? And you're not going crit, just use the new support gem that reduces crit chance and increased damage (MORE)

Why would you use arctic armor AND tempest shield. Doesn't really make sense, Disc+Tempest shield work fine. In fact, it'd be better just straight up using Blasphemy+Enfeeble but you're not smart enough for that are you cat poster.

What's the point of spending money on a game where the whole point is to actually spend time playing it in order to gear your character?
When you have good enough gear you instantly run out of things to do, except if your build is bad in which case you should kill yourself

You're supposed to be on a journey in this game to achieve good gear, and reach level 100. you basically spent 50 dollars to remove gameplay from the game. even worse, it's fucking standard.

Congrats, you probably bought some mirrored gear or some shit. now what?
>>
>>123618202
>What's the point of spending money on a game where the whole point is to actually spend time playing it in order to gear your character?

But that's wrong. Getting gear and trading for it isn't fun. The purpose of videogames is to have fun and feel strong.

I like feeling strong? What's wrong with that. Plenty of people have their own ways of playing the game and PoE is very goal oriented.

If anything money circumvents the unfun portions and emphasizes the fun portions.

>When you have good enough gear you instantly run out of things to do,

No, in PoE you never have anything to do. By your argument the only reason to do anything is to make your own goals and that's what I'm doing. My goal is to be strong. If I wanted to feel strong I might as well stay in Normal mode.

There's no incentive to go to Merciless except to face a challenge and get stronger through levels

I can't believe 4chan of all places doesn't condone RMTing. It literally doesn't affect anyone besides the 2 people trading.

It's literally less intrusive compared to D2s RMTing

No, video games are systems and mechanics that you interact with to learn and eventually even exploit them. The interaction is the fun.

You might aswell play cookie clicker if that is what you want out of video games.

>>123618437
Have you ever considered the fact that diablo-likes aren't what you are looking for when it comes to video-games?
The fun in these games come from struggling to get gear, experimenting/theorycrafting, and eventually showing-off in the ladders.

If you want to "feel strong" or some kind of shit there's no need to spend that much money on virtual currencies, just play dynasty warriors or some other idiot-friendly "game"

what the fuck are you trying to say? D3 doesn't allow trading. and the loot isnt interesting or fun

well I'm not a NEET. Nothing wrong with spending money every once in a while.

People spend 15$ a month on netflix and spotify, I spend my 15$ a month on stuff like this. What's the problem? No one's even affected if I buy something. It doesn't change PoE's attitude of the game, it doesn't change their experience. Nothing happens except 2 people who enjoy PoE being happier. Shouldn't /poeg/ be happy at that? I guess not considering the mudflinging going around. Geez.

Playing Devil's Advocate here, but D3 has made great strides since it's release. If you're associating release D3 with your current present day opinion then I'm sorry to say you're heavily uninformed on the current D3 content/metagame.

I honestly can't wait for 2.4 in D3 and 2.1 in PoE as I play both games at a relatively high level.

In fact, 2.4 is the only time I've ever played the PTR on D3 and it's pretty neat.

no fucking duh it isn't

we just find your retarded decision of spending real money on some crap in standard league funny, in game where you're supposed to be having fun hunting for loot.

seriously, if you reach the point where you spend 50$ dollars to skip the loot hunting in a loot hunting game you should probably just play something else. retard.

Well you may have a point, I haven't played it since its release. Other than the AH/trading being removed could you tell me about some of the most notable changes?
I'm mostly interested in character customization to be honest, that and the AH were the main reasons D3 felt like such a shitty game to me.

if they don't completely rework loot it's gonna be the same crap. i have nothing to be exited about

I pressed enter by accident - 4chan pass.

Why are people bothered then?

Like, would people be bothered if someone worshipped an invisible god? No? Then who cares. There are tons of people who do things for no reason just to fill a tiny void of life and you're autistically targetting someone for skipping a tedious step in a videogame for a valid reason?

Trading isn't fun. Finding specific uniques and never finding it is not fun, these are the facts.
>>
>>123620132
They already reworked loot. The mechanic is literally called loot 2.0.

>>123619697
Is trading fun? If the answer is no then no. D3's new director Wyatt Asian person said something along the lines of that. Also it spurs a lot of unnecessary moderating on the developers side (black market) and as a result wastes resources in general. bottom line trading doesn't impact the game positively

No it wasn't. People literally just said the other person was a retard for skipping trading because trading was fun. Sure it's subjective but if we had a vote it'd be pretty clear trading is unfun. Having to interact with slobbering idiots and arguing about a price is annoying.

Some people actually believe 50ex removes the entire "journey" of PoE, as if 50ex is capable of completing everything in the game alone.

>Finding specific uniques and never finding it is not fun

christ you reek of D3. you can buy ANY unique you want. just go on poe.trade

I find it funny you complain that trading isnt fun. you're gonna have to trade to do anything with those exalts you bought. no way in hell you know how to craft.
>>
>>123620140
Because it fucks the whole economy up.
Also you're right, I don't care about scum throwing their money up for such reasons. I do care about said scum trying to spread their shitty opinions though

its a forum shop indexer, and thats the way to trade if you want to skip the trade chat spam nonsense
