Balance in Path of Exile: Synthesis

You seriously nerfed Storm Brand? It was a good clear skill but not so good at bosses... Unless you are dipshit rich it was by far not able to be "too powerful"...

Player Maximum Resistances now can never go above 90%.


Welp, there goes my starter. Why even introduce Nebulis if it's going to be capped at 90%? It's like Indigon but already pre-nerfed.
(2-3-2019) Buff underused skills (3.23?!)+ selfcast, stop nerfing defense, build in threshold jewels (3.23?!), implement D3-style looting, add death log + MTX preview, actually rework flasks, stop balancing around the .01%, unnerf Harvest, ADD NEW WAYS TO LEVEL, finally implement Loot 2.0
Thanks for trashing Slayer, clearly too strong
It's nice that spellcasters now get a decent leech... kind of, I guess, without having to rely on GR.

It's going to blow *so* many theorybuilds right smooth out of the ocean entirely, and might bring ES back to some manner of usability (though Zealot's Oath still sucks since ES is almost entirely right tree and regen is almost entirely left tree and never the twain shall meet).


A good fix for Oath would be: ES converted to Life at 50% of it's value, 1% life regen. There are not many ES nodes in the life range, but almost no regen to speak of approaching the ES tree that can make use of ZO.

Storm brand had one function I really liked: In a 4l it could curse things *WELL* offscreen (SB, CoH, curse, chain) until its duration ran out.

Other than that I found it 'okay' but not spectacular. Most of it's overpower aspect came when there were 5 out there and someone used 'recall' on the boss...
Patch Notes 3.15:
Fixed a bug where players believed the game was playable. This has been corrected and made retroactive.
Patch Notes 3.19:
Fixed a bug where players adapted to 3.15. This bug cannot be corrected, so we have implemented a 90% reduction in item access as a punishment.
