so i need to learn to get around crappy syncronizing couse they cant fix it? waaaaay to go game!
Sure i can also buy millions of expensive uniques and just go after one of the hundreds of builds people do everyday
but i wanna play whats fun to me and not what the game allows me to couse of its crappy syncro -.-

I had a similar revelation with my dual firestorm totem build. It was my favorite build but no one would let me party with them so I had to give it up. With this game it really is path of least resistance and picking the most fun option of the ones that 'work'.

What this game desperately needs is an option to hide spell effects or at least tone them down. Certain spell effects and combinations on this game are just ridculous and will either render the game unplayable or fry your graphics card.

GGG also has problems with the latency on the AUS / SINGA servers and they don´t want to fix it, so forget about it. The servers are not even cloud computing servers held by a real big company like Amazon, just random datacenters somewhere in Singapore / Aus / Eu / America. I don´t really know if the issue is related to a networking problem on their datacenters and / or also the optimization on the servers / the game code. Deal with it and forget about it because for what it seems, they don´t seem to care much regarding those kind of issues. Also, they are not networking experts so ... don´t expect much.

Its a well known issue, the desync.

What you need to understand, its not a problem in the eyes of the developer, nor a lot of this games fans.

Its planned, they have a reason for doing it, and its here to stay. Desync was present in closed beta, open beta, and still present.

Its because they are so paranoid of hacking they made your client show a predicted model of whats really happening on the server based on your inputs...and are too cheap to pay for bandwith to allow the game to auto sync ofen enough.

They also seem to have ignored all the other ways other developers for other games, ARPG included, deal with hacking without these issues.

It really is one of the top reasons this game bleeds so many players. Desync renders HC pointless, renders many skills and playstyles worthless, and is forever with you...

Post is not mine, it was posted by bambi52sig in steam. But pretty much summarizes what i think about it. I love the game, i finihed it in merciless with 2 characters and have another one in cruel difficulty in hardcore league. I actually have spent real money on this game. But still today it amazes me to read some fans justifying the biggest issue this game has, and that is a complete game breaking for so many many players and IS NOT their fault, is the game fault.

btw Merveil final boss in 72 maps is absolutely unplayable using whirling blades to avoid her attacks. Unplayable.

Yeah about every 3 months or so I think about re-installing POE, but I always look to see if desync has been addressed then go back to what I was doing. It is EMBARRASSING that desync is basically being treated as a "feature" of the game. No big deal though plenty of other games out there.

Hey guys. Guess what? This is still an issue; an embarrassing issue too.

Desyncronization is something every game suffer, but is more clearly to notice this in Path of Exile because of the nature of the game. We can only hope this issue will get managed well enough to improve the game experience. In the meantime we got this thread to follow the progress in that: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/889669

There have been a lot of progress.
But you are desynched so you don't see it yet.

Such a shame, I'm new, and like this game a lot.. But as soon as I hit level 70 and started running maps, I now get unplayable amounts of desync and lag.. What will it take for GGG for acknowledge this or do something about it? It's clearly an issue for a vast majority of people who play this game.. If this was any other game or company, something would have probably been done about it by now, considering that the game has apparently been like this since release.. It's just really saddening, the game has so much potential wasted :/ I would have probably donated if the game was playable for me..

What difference does being lvl 70 and in maps make? You should have experienced lag before maps at the same rate as you do now. Maps aren't some magical tipping point
