this should be their last priority if they know the game is that unbalanced imho

so you want your skills to be balanced by the art department?


I laughed so much, thanks for that :D

Im sad about the sadimas touch nerf but looking forward to the new season :)

Every league/expansion GGG decides on a meta. CoC is the meta this time is the logic.

So we come to the conclusion I've been foreseeing for many leagues now : I have noticed nerfs and buffs have barely nothing to do with logical balancing, but are rather meant to artificially create a new deal among the metas, items, skills, maps organization in the atlas, etc...


Pretty much. It's really hard to make everything "perfectly balanced" and people would get bored with the same builds being OP every league. Every new league comes new mechanics and new OP builds. Nerf the old ones.

Continued to incrementally improve the sound, art, effects and environments.


Any chance of making the highest Energy Shield armors in each tier (Cabalist/Destroyer/Vaal regalia) not look like clown suits?
Awakened Combustion Support when?

What about the Masters daily discounts on currency?

Vorici's fusings deal was the only way I ever even had enough fussings in the first place.

Also, could we get a vendor recipe for 5-links? If 6 socket gear can give us 7 jewellers (which helps immensely) could a 5-link gear be vendored for a fusing or two?

Like, really, this is so important to me. I'd always make a league starter who could do single-target so I could grind Vorici ASAP for his discount. Trading for fusings was always more expensive than vendors in-game.
Imma try an OG Bringer of Rain Gladiator Bleed Lacerate build.
Wish me luck bois
If you are going to face a real challenge, it has to be a real challenge. You can't accomplish anything without the possibility of failure.

Did you even read the patch notes? Maybe they will but not in, 3.5.0.


some follow up, lol
age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!
Can we get more information about the 'minion damage' nerf/change? That's a pretty cryptic patch note that could be nothing or could be build breaking.

Thanks for all of your work GGG, I'm super excited for the new league!

I understand that wielding a statstick for more damage is not very realistic, but with that argument, you should not be able to use shields with 1h weapons either, because they too can give you more damage.

And for the balance perspective, I looked at the available delve statistics:

Softcore-Delve statistic for characters lvl 95+ (poe.ninja):

Skill popularity:
blade vortex (20%) <-- 1/5 of ALL players used blade vortex
molten strike (10%)
elemental hit (10%)
frenzy {poets pen}(9%) <-- note that the first four skills covered almost half of all builds
tornado shot (7%)
arc (7%)
righteous fire (6%)
reave (6%) <-- first melee build that uses statsticks
.
.
.
the second one is double strike, at 3% followed by blade flurry at 2%

Deepest solo delve:
blade vortex (3.8k)
tornado shot (3.4k)
molten strike (3.1k)
poets pen (3k)
magma orb (2.3k)
elemental hit (2k)
glacial cascade (1.6k)
.
.
.
the first melee statstick build is blade flurry at 1.1k

Now by looking at this statistics I would never say that statsticks were "op" for melee based builds, and nerfing those builds will make them even less popular. And your "changes" to statsticks for spells have no effect in standard, where perfect items alredy exist.

TLDR My pet rock would balance the statsticks better

I am sorry ggg, but by nerfing melee builds without a solid argument to why and by not touching blade vortex, you lost all respect I had for you.


That's the point.
