>The 3 dual Stat classes, Templar, Shadow, and Duelist are different:
>Templar and Shadow have 10 to each of their respective 2 stats with one in the middle that gives 20 to the lacking one

It'd be Triangle Thief, Circle Wizard, and Square Warrior btw.

3.0 release confirmed for mid-july 2018.

I think the reason we need more nerfs than buffs is because player power has skyrocketed to an all-time high over the past few leagues, to a level that GGG and a number of players don't want. Buffing monsters and nerfing player skills is the only way to pull back from the 60 second Strands, sub-24hr 100s, etc.

This is a good thing, not because players shouldn't be level 100, or because players shouldn't run fast Strands, but because the whole purpose of the game is to spend time leveling and tackling content, as a form of enjoyment. The faster everything becomes, the less enjoyable the experience is for everyone. If the power creep were to continue, given enough time eventually reaching level 100 would be sub-10hr or even faster. Your favorite streamer will have won the race to 100 before you come back from work on launch day. At that point, why would anyone play this game? Where is the journey, the adventure, or the chase? You play for one or two days and then you're done? Why not extend the gameplay out and have some fun over the entirety of the 3-month league, or at least a good portion of it?

Doing that requires nerfs, since GGG currently can't develop content faster than players can play through it. Before Perandus, GGG used to take a lot of time reducing player power repeatedly in order to maintain that enjoyable amount of playtime. Somewhere around Perandus, GGG got scared about losing player population due to the game being too hard. However, I think after Legacy they're finally starting to see that we've gone way too far. It's worth making the game worth playing again, even if it potentially jeopardizes the player count.

It's sad that we've migrated from a game full of adventure and discovery to a WoW mentality of wanting to complete everything as fast as possible, at the expense of our own enjoyment.

reddit is right. people are complaining out of all of the additional enjoyment they have

You know what, i agree with this, but there is one problem. Going slow in PoE is completely unrewarding. Even going extremely fast, T1 uniques are rare as fuck and you wont be getting more than 1 every week going fast.

Lately i have been playing a ton of grim dawn, and going slow there at least guarantees you the base items you are looking for unlike PoE, where 99.999% of the loot is completely random.

Do you think there will be more than 2 life chests in 3.0

Lab is now dead, but anime is still free.

i've been playing this game for almost 5 years and i just realized that it's really bad

better late than never

I kinda have a feeling that since poe is a 'solved' game we won't ever really have 'interesting' ways to scale our damage or other things. like look back to old videos explaining why the build does damage or is good

>I freeze pulse 5 projectiles with GMP + added lightning damage
>Sure the GMP gimps the damage but I can hit 1 target with all 5 projectiles when Im up close
>I also pickup static blows (was that the name of the node?) for like 25% chance to shock so on 1 mob shotgunned it will be fully shock stacked with just a couple casts
>Since the mob is shocked stacked it becomes easier to to keep applying those shocks while also making it easier to freeze the mob
>with the mob frozen and my setup in a taryn's shiver the mob with then take another 20% increased damage on top of the triple shock stack and the 5 projectiles shotgunned.

Its the classic kripp freeze pulser example but it showcases what made the game 'interesting' in the past. You scaled your damage through combining broken mechanics in the game (pierce LA + frostwall for another example) instead of just slapping on 5 more multiplier gems, then a couple more multipliers from the tree, and then maybe another couple more multipliers from your gear.

It was cool and fun to see someone showcase 2 or 3 mechanics together that somehow manage to multiply your damage output by 10. It was cool to see someone make a build with a weird unique that becomes crazy in context with some obscure scaling numbers (something like the time when ghudda just froze any nearby mob with blasph + temp chains in an atziri's disfavor causing a knee jerk reaction (nerf) from ggg)

cont..

>>181816251
cont..

With mechanics simplified, nerfed, changed, removed, it removed the actual fun of the game. Breaking the game by twisting and bending the mechanics it so innocently gave to you was the fun.

Exploring the puzzle pieces of the game in it's infancy was the fun of PoE.

Inevitably this is where we end up. a completed product that no longer has the appeal that it once did to the players that loved it from the start.

The only thing ggg can do so capture that abusive feel is to give us retarded shit like arcane surge, maim, or other dumb abilities / supports that generically scale our damage (because all mechanics outside of generic scaling was removed due to it's abusive broken nature) and asks us the question, 'hey buddy, solve this one. What gem slot do you sacrifice in order to proc this thing to increase your main skills damage? And what is the best way of doing that for your build?'

Any semi experienced player will find the most optimal setup setup relatively quickly and play the next 3 month league abusing it. They wait for the next patch that throws them a few new toys inside this now cleverly constructed safe space where the walls and doors are all padded, you tools softend and the straitjacket just a bit tighter than it used to be.

anyway its like 3:30 in the morning im tired idk if this was a coherent thought at all gnight

All of what you mentioned, plus Cadiro as a master, and Navali actualy selling prophecies, instead of randomly adding them.

why don't you play d2 then? oh right because poe is a better game

>>181805378
>microtransactions
>5 $ minimum
>you can buy 1 fucking tab with it

1) This is a top down view arpg where you move by clicking on terrain (or using a movement skill). It is not precise and sometimes even clunky, especially compared to games where traps usually make more sense - third person rpgs, first person games, platformers. All of them have much more precise movement than poe, hence there traps make more sense.

2) View. The view in this game is rather restricted in terms of range, and you can't rotate the camera. Not once did I encounter particular corners, where walls would obstruct the view so I could barely see the traps. In some cases, there were certain zones where traps would go on for longer than screen distance, without any "safe spots", which would allow you to slowly and carefully pass them. In such cases, the best tactic is just to yolo dash forward. So challenging. Much wow.

3) Length. Even dark souls would usually have a checkpoint of sorts after a difficult part with traps and hard enemies. Platformers have short levels, again, to somewhat reduce the frustration. Other games allow you to save at any point, or have checkpoints. Here if you screw up, you have to do it all over again from the start. Like a long level filled with traps and three boss encounters with no checkpoints or saves.

didn't read your essay t-b-h

4) Connection issues. I am one of the lucky few who live close to their gateway and don't suffer AS much from connection issues (doesn't mean that people who don't have a perfect internet should be just ingored). However, controls and hitboxes in online games will never be as precise as in an offline game. Combined with an already not so precise arpg click based movement, the arcade like elements become even more frustrating. In any other part of the game the lag is not as deadly (with exceptions), since it is one thing to get an extra hit or two from random monsters on a map, and whole different story to lag back a bit and end up in a trap that deals % damage of your health.

5) Tiny final arena (uber in particular). Now, many bosses in this game have this problem, however with izaro it is even worse. Depending on the layout, you can barely move anywhere, since the center is blocked, traps are everywhere, and pillars in uber can sometimes deny you the last islands of safety, making it difficult to move around and dodge in a fight were you are assumed to move around and dodge, since izaro is a very heavy hitter.

6) Can be cheesed easily. Probably one of the most ironic aspects of lab to me, is the fact that a proper lab runner can beat it in around 2 minutes. By stacking VERY high amounts of movement speed, you can simply ingore all traps since they stop dealing damage to you altogether. And Izaro? You just nuke him with loads of mines detonated by a totem (so far the fastest way of killing him due to a glitch, that GGG is officially fine with). So challenging. So skillful. And with all the above mentioned issues, second best option is to be able to facetank everything. Facetank traps, facetank izaro, give little to no sh*ts about anything. High es pool with vp is one way, another option that I know is super high regen.

So in the end, does this content promote skillful, thorough, careful play, or even thinking? NO, because you can make it stupidly easy with certain playstyles, while getting crapped on with others. And that is fine. What is not fine is that I have to go through this with every single one of my characters. In almost any other scenario, I can do something - for example boss X is too dangerous for my current character, I will clear the map with him and then kill the boss with my other character who is more capable. Rolled a bad map for character Y? Fine, I will do it with character Z! So I am rewarded for having different builds, which are different enough and have their strong/weak points. But with lab? NO, F*CK YOU, every single one of your characters has to do this!

This is absurd.

interesting point of view but allow me to offer one rebuttal: git gud you stupid shitter

As i always said

Remove ascendency points, enchantments and treasure chest

Would you still run lab?

remove passive point reward

would you still complete grandaddy crab, fairgraves and platinum bust quests?

Getting back on topic, the reason why I hate labs is generally the combination of traps and door opening puzzles. I think just removing those pesky door levers would do it for me. The length is ok. I would like to see some sort of checkpoint system, where you can come back to each area directly after killing Izaro. I do think that whoever starts the lab should be the only ones to finish it meaning that nobody can be rushed to the end. I am probably opposite most players as I enjoy the most linear content possible in game. My two favorite things to do are and ledge based run(strands) and uber Atziri runs. I cannot stand puzzles in an arpg. I have tomb raider for that.
Peace

no because they're shit

People play soft core for a reason. They CHOOSE not to play hard core for several reasons. One of them is often that you can try again from where you died. The lab spits on that choice.

You realize that the content you get isnt much better than the necro ? Youre getting 0 endgame content as the atlas wont be getting changed. Youre merely getting a few acts worth of reused content that everyone will run through in 4 hrs with a tabula and NEVER look back on. Youre getting a few boring multiplier skill gems which make this game even more braindead. 3.0 will be the death of PoE because once people get to maps they will realize that theres NOTHING NEW TO DO.

it might not reinvent the wheel but it's still new

>>181831516
Because I hate myself as well
duh

haven't watched a twitch stream in a month

Projecting much? I guess you forgot to take your pills.

First time I've bothered to go to this game's general.

Why is everyone being more depressed and sensitive than feminists?

because depression is linked with higher IQ which is needed to play this game at a high level

>>181835065
>you have to be depressed to be "intelligent"
Never heard such a stupid thing.

Damn straight, anon

t. low IQ normie

>>181835208
Nah, it's the other way around.

>>181835368
It's neither.
People who non-ironically believe it are just looking for an excuse to run away from their problems.

gotta love those psychology experts who come here after reading 2 wikipedia articles to share their infinite wisdom

even shitters have opinions

>>181835595
Not him, but it's just common sense.
You would call someone a scientist if they told you that water freezes at low temperatures.

I can see your point but here's the thing,

>>181835463
>run away from their problems
When it's the only way out, you gotta take it. Do you think depressed people enjoy their depression and self-hatred, their low or next to zero self-confidence? Do you think it's a fun way to wake up every morning asking yourself the question "why the fuck did I even wake up, I want to die or at least disappear"? Let me tell you, it is not.

This is a general about a game, not your personal blog. Stop posting.

why the fuck do you talk to each other without quoting

>aoe is shit except sunder but that hardly counts as an aoe

3.0 looks exciting. After crying for 4 years about melee being too bad they cut the build choices down to some projectile spell/bow build or a melee build.

PoE is basically retail wow at this point.

Dunno mate, I was dicking around in PoB, but aren't you supposed to build around burn damage and crit for ignite? Now though, the question regarding ignite immune bosses comes up. But ignoring that bit, ignites can do a fair bit of damage. Although, some of the new changes are fairly confusing.

>>181837060
A 6 linked fireball in 3.0 doesn't do the same amount of ignite damage as the base dmg in 2.6

Dot builds are completely dead.

"a build is just a link setup"
- things retarded poeg shitters will say

>>181837208
I'm aware of that, and ignite does the highest damage of the latest ignite or whatever the fuck that is, and Emberwake is ded.
I was playing around with Firestorm numbers, and got the result of 1.6k hit with 6k ignite damage for 4 seconds, which would get overwritten by a new hit, but say 5k average ignite damage applied every seconds might be okay for lower end-game stuff. Like I said, the changes are confusing, and am leaning towards DoT is shitter personally

But after watching some of his videos about builds, it's so clear he is just a faggitor trying to come up with try-hard hipster builds, it hurts. I love me some BoR Cleave max block builds, but he is trying way too hard.

>>181841464
If only that was the case. But twitch cancer is spreading to libbit, regardless of what he is doing, so that is not entirely his fault, I'll give him that. The average rebbit thread will contain at least one twitch memeface or meme, it's fucking saddening. You can't have a normal conversation at all, there.

Devs should not implement chats in their games if their end goal is to permanently ban you for banter

What are some good league starters that aren't pizza sticks or some other boring shit? Self cast preferred since it's more engaging. Thinking maybe something berserker mom, or assassin es, or just a witch. Suggestions for active skills?

>>181844167
Yeah, it's supposed to be a MoM/life cirt build, but after making the final tree, I'm not so hot about it. The crit chance is low, and life goes up to 5-6k with mana being 1.5k, and ES depending on gear. And the damage is not very good, as in, not end-game viable. Could be fun, GC is a fun skill with all its perks, but it won't just cut it.

damn i missed troveposts

i wish people would wish i was dead

one thing i think you should know
i ain't gonna miss you when you go

why is enhance such shit when it is a drop only gem?

>>181842450
Self cast flame blast is usually viable as well as cwc firestorm, though those are pretty cookie cutter. Unfortunately unique builds, fun builds, and endgame viable builds don't always intersect.

enhance is shit because GGG is bad at designing video games

I'm still disappointed Masters don't have associated quests.

It's pretty much perfect. You have six new acts, and six masters with Zana. Zana has a story element of her own in the endgame. You could add an Elron sidequest to act 5 because you'd think he'd want to comment on Oriath, Haku sidequest to Act 7 because you'd think he'd react to Tukohama stomping around, et cetera. It fucking writes itself, I have no idea why they don't do this.

Anybody play blade vortex in beta? How is it? Whats best way to scale it now that poison is rip?

your opinions and my opinions of zana are obviously different friends, no need to faulsify reports for misinterpretaitions of the souce materials.

also while they intended, initially, to nickel and dime people, the industry quickly discovered that most people spend jack shit, but some people are really price insensitive
then the market started to move toward exploiting the people with impulse control problems

the transaction overhead for payment processors were more of a concern when they intended to sell things cheaply
this is why apple would delay billing for songs as well

No, they are called microtransactions because when the term was coined they WERE MICROtransactions, and not forty fucking dollars, you mouthbreating fucks.

macrotransactions

hire me ggg

besides acting as a means of bulking transactions the introduction of fake currency units also permitted vendors to force people to overspend in increments that were too low to buy other goods
requiring them to make future purchases or losing some of their "value"
microsoft was sued for this practice

just imagine the kind of language they use internally to discuss their customers and their purchasing habits

reminder that the only reasons people ever died to vaal oversoul were desync and doing kripp builds

sorry forgot i was on /poeg/ where no one has ever die to vaal ever

more like krapp builds

kripp builds were one of the reasons i stopped playing in pub groups
>entire party of people that do no damage because lmao hardcore only get life nodes
>carry entire party or just play by yourself

remember when notables were so fucking shit you would travel from ranger start all the way south and west just to get the keystones and end up at static blows as BM IR US LA

or when some clusters didn't even have notables
