Why are people going apeshit over this? Charges are finally doing what you expect from their thematic alignment, power charges are for spellcasters and frenzy charges are for attackers. This was the case for the longest time until spellcasters started to abuse reworked frenzies for a free damage multiplier and double-dipping shenanigans. Sounds like you're a bunch of pussies whining your DDing poison build won't work anymore and you might actually need to start thinking now.

Are you being willfully ignorant? The point is that you're forced to play spell based crit to make the most out of PC now, Assassin has never been a strictly attack or spell based ascendancy.

do power charges only apply to crit now?
do endurance charges only work if you have no evasion or energy shield?

>Frenzy charge on throwing a trap on the skill tree
>Frenzy charge on throwing trap, new unique

Frenzy charges now only provide movement speed for pure trappers (attack damage for bow trappers)

>>184075187
I agree. And I say that after feeling that the Harbinger Unique Item fragments are actually fine
Assuming fair drop rates and distinct ways of getting all 4 individual parts
Literally everything else they've shown today plus the awful Unique Items, Bleed Keystone, etc. from the other day is utterly unacceptable.

It really does make you wonder what the fuck they talk about in meetings at GGG. Do they talk at all about what they're working on or is this some kind of Valve-esque environment where you work on whatever you feel like and then shit it out in a patch every 3 months?

So elementalist is actually one of the worst ascendancies now right? The Conflux path is worthless now with all 3 elemental ailments being non-factors and the Mastermind of Discord path requires the use of non-main skills to benefit from along with a fucking periodic AoE or damage buff. The only useful nodes are the golems and reflect reduction but your damage is going to be so low you don't need reflect immunity.

It's fucking easy to leech as Champion now since they are changing most of the leech node in Duelist to Attack damage. You get more leech than even Slayer. Ignite is fucking saved by FS

>>184076982
doing some quick math.

since the game never rounds up, you need to deal.. 8.3 repeating% of a bosses health in one hit to get the minimum of 5% chill.

getting 100% chill effect brings that down to 4.16 repeating% of boss life. for a 5% chill.

and this has to be PURE cold.

>These changes make it easier for build that focus on bonuses against enemies that are Shocked or Chilled to use those effects against high-life enemies, particularly bosses.

no it fucking doesn't, now no one will be able to apply chill against bosses. bosses should not take 20 hits to kill.

do the changes effect shocking ground/chilled ground?

that i am fine with, but it feels like you have to go massive investment into chill for bosses.

>>184078868
Shame that there's very VERY little increased Chill effect in the game or Increased Shock effect. And they probably didn't add any. Which means if you try to "specialize" in it, you end up doing shit clear damage AND even worse Boss damage on top of not chilling or shocking said bosses.

When did it become a requirement for poe streamers to be gay? Actually, is there a non-gay streamer? I streamed for a bit but got banned for calling people complete fucking cunts. How can I be banned from my own stream? That was a mount and blade stream as well, usually a good bunch.

Why not? All those "% chance to chill" nodes on the tree and items no longer make sense since chill is no longer a static debuff, so it's likely they're replaced with "% increased chill effectiveness"

It's quite similar to how stun works now, and you don't see people complaining about stun being a % life-based mechanic rather than "I throw a d20 and if I hit 15+ I stun you!"

This is probably the worst change to POE in its entire history. For over 6 years the charge system was completely fine with all 3 charge types working for every build in some sort of way.

And now for absolutely NO FUCKING REASON they decide that frenzy charges should be useless for casters and power charges should be useless for attack builds. There is literally no fucking sense in this change.

Like you said assassin is now a worthless class. Trickster with its new swift killer keystone is a complete joke because only one charge type will work for whatever build you choose to play on him. And for the other 17 classes you either pick 0 charge types or at most 1 charge type if your ascendancy generates it by default (raider etc).

And the worst thing about this is every single mechanic that used to be applicable to either build type is now restricted which only serves to ruin build diversity even more.

Assassin's mark? Caster only
Poacher's mark? Attack only
Any of the tens of uniques that generate charges? Now half as useful.

There is really nothing positive I can think of about this or anything else that's come out of the GGG camp in the last 2 weeks. At this point I'm sceptical that they can even coherently explain the reasons for these changes in a way that makes sense.

>>184081493
Slayer is great because they are stun and bleed inmune. They also only have 20% increase damage on their tree, even with onslaught and cull it is abysmal. Champ get 140% increase damage and fortify. They also remove ailment on lowlife, which you dont have if you dont take fervour. Champ is just safer to play.

>>184082252
And as for Cold skills, which shatter the corpses, leaving nothing to proliferate?

>>184081659
I honestly think the ailment change would be fine IF the number balancing was right. 50% of HP to inflict a full shock/chill is stupid, you won't need the ailment if you're doing that much damage. Maybe 25% for max effect without ailment scaling, assuming I'm not way off with player damage vs boss HP.

The charge change is a cute idea, but ultimately fucks up everything. Like, fuck, they have a new unique chest for trap builds that only gives frenzy charges for pete's sake.

>20% damage increase

No, they get 20% _more_ damage on their tree, a free gem slot which is at least another 35%+ more damage, and then you have to account for the, what, 50% or so increased damage off the minor nodes? Not including attack speed?

Champions get 140% but its additive, not multiplicative, meaning its only good and not stupid fucking busted.

>>184082190
>20% increased damage

>fortify

>Chris, the face of GGG, the one who always damage-controls the hardest and acts like the /our guy/ of Reddit, has been utterly silent today
I wonder if the rest of GGG killed him for a blood sacrifice to Kitava.

>A purely Lightning hit which removes 50% of an enemy's life will increase the damage that enemy takes by 50% for 4 seconds, scaling linearly down to 0% at no Lightning damage dealt. Shock is still only applied by critical strikes or based on your chance to shock.

So 25% of life is 25% increased lightning damage taken, 10% is 10%, etc. Meaning that against bosses you will be dealing at most 10% increased damage with shock if you have some ridiculous glass cannon build. Riiiight.

So shock is shit now huh. Well then.

Have they changed barrage so you can't have 30 projectiles all giving a poison stack yet? That should be on the chopping block for fun things left in the game.

>>184082687

Because taking +10% fire and physical damage is bad enough and you don't want to make it 20%? And the 7th link you get off impact radius pretty much makes up for the other 40% damage?

Vitality void still exists too so its not like you're hurting for leech. And how does champion help you survive nuking if both have 100% fortify uptime by using your movement skill? Champion doesn't even have "increased effect of fortify" nodes.

>>184084083
???????????????????????????

>>184084083
excuse me?

If the max damage for full chill/shock was 25%, that means 100% increased Ailment effect/chill/shock effect would reduce that to 12.5% life for max effect.
That means you'd need to do at least 2 and some change percent damage of an enemy's HP to have any effect (5% slow) with Chill and at least 1.25% for a 5% increased damage taken modifier on a Shocked enemy. Those values are extremely unlikely to be broken by most skills except for ones that hit very hard with a single big hit, like Flameblast + 3 Dragons. But if you're Flameblast, you're better off scaling the main hit than fucking with 3 Dragons and ailments in 3.0. Of course, those numbers are HALF of what you currently would need. Shock and Chill are objectively useless now outside of ground effects.

All of the past few days have been of utmost hilarity to me. Some stupid shit, sure. But damn is it top-end lulz.

I couldn't agree more with the charge changes, diversity was killing this game and I am happy that GGG has finally decided to streamline this toxic system which everyone was abusing and they simply couldn't go around balancing the enormous mechanics player discovered. It's better to make charges more thematically aligned so you can select from a few options that GGG has laid for you. A good example of this in practice is Diablo 3

In before Chris makes another one of his 'these are provisional changes still under review and we're disappointed by the fanbase reaction' posts. As if it's our fault when his team fucks up.

Good, all these newfriend Mathil copying shitters will leave the game while we make new, exciting builds and get off at all the drama

>>184085548
you can make the game harder without making it so only a select few builds function or having contradictory design (Frenzy charges on a wand when they grant no damage to spells)

if the game is going to continue to reduce what you can use with what im just going to go play D3. Part of the appeal of PoE has always been "do what you want with tons of options" and now its "do what you want, NO NOT THAT, NOT THAT EITHER, NO NO NO YOU CAN'T DO THAT"

>that bleed keystone
>now this
it's almost as if the people who made the changes don't know jack about this game.

>>184085409
Inb4 GGG shill but, most people couldn't stop screeching about how 2.0 was the beginning of the casualisation of the game but wasn't it then that Frenzy charges got their 4% MORE damage? So doesn't this nerf bring it back to more normal levels?

The ailment changes are abhorrent though desu senpaitachi.

why do hardcucks always lick ggg's boots then act like they belong here?

>>184085640
Okay niGGGer

Justify Hegemony's era now that power charges give spell damage and only 30% crit.

No dismissals either. Actually, legitimately sell the idea that they thought about these charge changes instead of being a dumb shitposter. Oh wait, you can't.

>>184085703
That much is obvious. Every reveal in the past few days has been utterly devoid of rhyme, reason, or quality. Like it was thought about for a few hours, forgot about for 3 months, then hastily implemented for "testing" purposes.

don't reply to bait
don't reply to anime

You're stupid if you think that there isn't going to be some insane meta build found day 0, and that they won't add in further power creep.They're trying to crunch the game back to a manageable state, but that's impossible.

>>184085842
Man, you replied to the wrong person hard. Good job, retard.

>>184085842
I hate these changes, but seeing hegememe's staff get shit on is a silver lining.

>>184085964
shhh, shhh i still love you i really do

>>184085989
If they wanted to reel everything back in a bit, it should have been done in steps rather than all at once. This is like paying a guy $100K American a year and then suddenly dropping his pay to $50K American and saying "tough luck, you'll figure out a way to make it through."

>taking animeposters seriously

Been playing since Kripp beta, i love all these nerfs and changes. Make PoE require some fucking thought and action. Face tank meta is gone, learn the mechanics shitbrains.

>>184083508
Nice no dps build ziggy

>>184071795
Middle-earth needs to be nuked out of existence.

so the new league is perandus+breach+strongboxes+exiles+invasion+bloodlines+onslaught+torment+shrines in one pack of mobs
wew

>Face tank meta is gone, learn the mechanics shitbrains.
the fact you can face tank red map bosses at all is a fucking joke
even WoW is far more difficult than poe

>>184086415
Cyclone doesnt even need links to do damage.

>>184084525
I think franzies should affect spells but the power charge nerf is fine

>>184085030
>Summoner

>breach 2.0 - check
>enforced clear speed meta - check
>MOAR currency drops because GGG haven't learned their lesson yet
>challenge league rewards are garbage
It's shit, it's just fucking shit. Just like with legacy, I'm going to level one char to maps and then abandon the game for 3 months. Thanks for killing the hype GGG.

>Cry all day long at the perceived casualization of the game
>Cray and moan like absolute retards when all those well deserved nerf to make the game harder hit
Charges on every build stacking was completely retarded and certainly not promoting build diversity

>b-b-but it's not that it makes the games harder it's just because it's shit that I'm complaining
No. You're crying like a toddler because your favorite build has been nerfed. You are pathetic, and need to wake up to that fact.

I just hope you all leave the game, so that I can play with maybe half the population and an overall double mass IQ

>give power charges more spell damage
>nerf frenzy's generic more damage to just more attack damage
>dont give cast speed to power charges
>let frenzy keep attack and cast speed
