They COULD focus on revamping under-powered skills." By word "COULD" you mean "SHOULD" don't you? If word "entitled" isn't right in this situation then im sorry. And it's not like i don't see any problems it's more like you dont understand that devs are not some type of programm. They cannot generate ideas out of thin air. They need time. Just wait for 3.0 for life/ES changes. As for melee there is some changes(shift-targeting/weapon range) it's already good step. Well, you're forgiven. I'm not demanding changes. I'm not saying "my view is the right one". What I'm saying, is - as you quoted - that they COULD do it. They CAN buff every skill that isn't "on par". They CAN buff life. They CAN buff Resolute Techniques. They CAN do a lot of things, but they won't - (yet) - as it's not a priority - compared to new, shiny stuff. I even said in the post you quoted that I understand it - and respect it. So no, I don't feel that I have any claim on anything, which, in my understanding, is the definition of "entitlement". So you're sorry for not using the right word, and again, I forgive you. I think the word you're looking for is; "worried". Am I worried that the game(read: GGG) is slowly moving away from the two main elements I appreciate The most in an ARPG, "build diversity" and "balance"? Yes. Yes I am. Worried, not entitled. Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile. Last edited by Phrazz#3529 on Dec 1, 2016, 5:53:56 PM	Posted by Phrazz#3529 on Dec 1, 2016, 5:52:06 PM Quote this Post
I would just like to point out that I'm playing season 8 of Diablo 3 and there are like 2-3 good builds PER Character class. Which is 2-3X more than what Poe has now become. Took me 3 days to become godly and having fun. I'd rather do gifts than terrible map mods. I'm suprised Blizzard hasn't stole all the good ideas Poe has like they do from every other game. Anyway, I'm done pooping. Back to a stable game. Side note edit: d3 announces necromancer and it looks amazing. Poe Nerf's the only good scythe in the game and focuses on summons now.

No longer would you need to use these pesky 200% weapon dps melee skills, here's one that deals 400% weapon dps! - Golems were fixed. By doubling their damage! Except the choice may overwhelm players, so we took the most damaging golem, and trippled its damage! Item changes: - New set released! This is beginning of new era! Collect 4 Primordial Golemancer jewels and your golems will rule the battlefield! (if you don't collect them however, you will have half as many golems who won't even bother attacking enemies. But why would you do that, it's obvious you have to wear this set, that's the point behind the item sets, right?) The philosophy behind these changes is limitting time players spend being creative and making choices. So you will faster begin mowing down the mobs while watching your favourite streamer mowing down the mobs faster than you and earning donation money on it! New game mode: - kill monsters. ON TIMER! So you don't do anything stupid, like playing non-meta or enjoying the views or playing your pace. You are not supposed to play non-meta. Farm faster! On serious note: guys, where is this going? I don't know if I should be laughing , crying or both . Definitely agree with all these points , oh and about the new game mode : Greater Rifts much ? :D	Posted by BestMageKR#3826 on Dec 1, 2016, 9:59:48 PM Quote this Post
Seems bad for anyone not playing PoE as a job replacement activity. But I suppose the proof will be in the pudding. Mmmmm pudding!	Posted by Deleted on Dec 1, 2016, 10:04:36 PM

LOL, "precise wording". Did you know that phasing/onslaught on raider (and ascendant raider subclass) do give you phasing/onslaught status, but don't give phasing/onslaught buff? And that's not a bug but intended behaviour. Try guessing that from their "precise" descriptions. And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.	Posted by silumit#4080 on Dec 2, 2016, 3:37:35 AM Quote this Post

Hmm, I can't remember why I stopped writing the reply that I did. Well, anyways, I'm pretty sure what it is - you get the phasing/onslaught buff, but you don't get the phasing/onslaught buff icon. At least, I'm pretty sure that's how it works... you'd need an Ichimonji or Mantra of Flames to test, I think. Need game info?
