Path of Exile: Betrayal Patch Notes

But did they bolster their crappy servers?
pumped for this season.

Focusing on the positives since it's too easy to focus on negatives, which may turn out to be positive.
yeah

You can no longer use skills that require a specific weapon if you are dual-wielding and one of your equipped weapons is unsuitable for that skill. For example, you will no longer be able to use Reave with a dagger and sceptre equipped. This change means that the popular "stat-stick" strategies will no longer work for attacks.
As a result of this change, Ground Slam, Vaal Ground Slam, Shield Charge, Leap Slam, Double Strike, Vaal Double Strike, Reckoning, Ice Crash, Earthquake, Vaal Earthquake, Sunder, Word of Light, Edict of Light, Decree of Light, Commandment of Light, Word of War, Edict of War, Decree of War, Commandment of War, Tectonic Slam, Consecrated Path, Smite, Ancestral Warchief and Vaal Ancestral Warchief are no longer main-hand only.


Hold on hold on for a second! Does this mean we can no longer use Facebreakers + Shield for ancestral warchief?

A shield is not a weapon in Path of Exile.
It is no longer main only, meaning that if you are unarmed ( which you cannot do with a weapon in your off-hand ), it should still work like it is working now.
SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.
so many changes and not one of them makes the game better or more interesting to play
since I have no hope for significant game design improvements in this game I am officially done with Path of Exile. done for good
Looks good, thanks GGG!

It's good to shake things up - this is what keeps PoE vibrant.

RF never needed flasks.

Try to build RF occultist without degen @ boss then.

RF Occ? That's rather niche. Go mainstream with RF Jugg and you won't notice the flask changes.

Diversity? Besides, LL occu is faster mapper than any jugg / guardian.
Another round of massive nerfs. Surprised they don't just remove items from the game that they don't want people to use anymore.

Another thread full of people praising said nerfs because they care how other people play the game.


All in all business as usual. Vote with your wallets guys.
rotf nerf windripper nerf stat stick nerf
