The Cringiest League so far.

With the new trading system ai bots instantly buying out all the best items for pennies from unsuspecting people, then selling for x10 price, league mechanic is boring, and the fortress is tedious to say the least. Worst experience i had in this game so far, i'd rather have Archnemesis back, and that says a lot.


And no clue why mercenaries were cut out, they were the best idea in a long time. I'm done for this season, Cringe all around.

mercenaries need balancing before going core, I suspect they will come back(significantly weaker ofc)
Genesis tree is cool, but if I'm going to be honest, as far as map encounters, I prefer breaches 1.0.

Other than that I think this league is pretty cool, balance is fine, game is fun and content is aplenty.

I get what you mean with mercs, but this league would yet again be lightning skills meta if they stayed...
Doryani merc would give you up to 14x DPS on some builds which obviously is unbalanced for a less than 10 div investment into the merc.
If mercs go core league Start population will drop hard af, the only reason that league had any population was bc it was the first league in a year poe got. Breaches themselves are bad just like mercs, I'm not sure if ggg remembers how to make a good league mechanic anymore bc it's been awhile and they've dropped 5 bad leagues (every poe2 league mechanic has beg bad so far).
Wait, people did not like merc? I thought it was a very cool league for experimenting with crazy combinations.

Does crazy combinations = doryani+rally cry bc that's pretty much sums up the entirety of the league... XD

They were fun to play around with for a bit to try something different, but as a permanent addition? Absolutely not. They'd be mandatory for any build, and then it's just power creep for the sake of power creep. If and when they get reintroduced, there had better be a very significant downside, and preferably one that doesn't allow us to simply nullify all negative consequences of very powerful unique items...

Good point, I misunderstood your previous post it seems.

Only if you're a meta chaser :) I like to make my own things and suffer the consequences.
