Changed my mind again, INSANE chaos damage hurts Incursion experience a lot.

More chaos damage is good for the game. Reaching resistance caps is no problem at all in the current version of the game. An increased focus on chaos resistance, something you previously could ignore 100%, is a good thing. Not only does it increase your required gear focus, but it indirectly makes CI a more valid option.
I like it, even though it instagibs me once in a while if I'm not careful. And as we all know, the moment these "META clear-speeders" have to be "careful", they scream "THIS DOES NOT BELONG IN AN ARPG". Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

" Yeah, shitload of chaos damage out of fucking nowhere that gates League-content is a good thing. Sure. It was hard before to gear up. but now you not only need life, ele res and damage, but fricking chaos res or you won't be able to enjoy Incursion at all. It sucks. |

chalupa and pale council did high chaos spike damage also. Adapt or whinge ineffectively.

" Flawed logic. They were only small parts of their Leagues. Also chaos damage from Council is like a joke lol |
|
" No, it wasn't. And chaos damage was a joke before. You could go all the way, clearing all maps, Shaper, Elder, Atziri - without even thinking about chaos damage. What's the point, then? And what's the point of the immunity on CI, if it isn't valuable? And it doesn't "gate" you. You can position yourself better. Movement. And, God forbid, get some chaos resistance. Even get some chaos resistance nodes on the tree until you have the gear. Though, the tree could probably use a small node or two more, if this is the road they'll take in the future. It's a shame when people scream "BULLSHIT" every time something hard comes around. Something they're not used to. Something they'll have to adapt to. Something that forces them out of their same, old patterns. Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

" my point was this isn't the first time stacking chaos res was a thing in leagues. Pale council 1 shot me with that chaos dam back in prophecy; Around lvl 90 hc to boot. Maybe they will nerf the incursion chaos mobs. Or maybe they want us to stack chaos res now. |

" No it isnt, not in the quantities that the temple is spiting out. I'm running an ES build, no reserved life so far and +40% chaos resists and I'm still getting oneshot by the Vaal Constructs regularly. They're dealing boss level telegraphed attack damage, for white trash mobs. Forcing builds ES builds into CI or Shavs is completely the opposite of what they should be doing. The temple as a whole seems to be a fair bit overtuned, and its not even end game level content. Last edited by Asmosis#7365 on Jun 5, 2018, 4:28:19 AM

The problem isn't just the chaos dmg; it's the fact they offscreen you + too many proj and too fast. If you take into account map mods, too..you're good as dead.

" What? That's just wrong. Chaos stacking against Leauge mechanic was never a thing. At best you get Chaos resistance flask for Chayula's Breachstone, not for mapping. And just lol at prophecy. Also, remember that CI was meta back in these Leagues and pretty much everyone would be chaos damage immune to begin with, so yeah, specially Breach. |

" Even Reddit aknowledge problem, Reddit dude - https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/8ondbj/ancient_constructs_in_incursions_are_a_bit_too/ And you completely misunderstood all the points to begin with. About damage out of nowhere, about constructs being broken, aboug League content gating (imagine being a new player who got told "get life and cap ele res and you are fine" lol).
