The big question I have though, is are the core fundamental changes to melee combat going to be Legion only then become core in Standard after Legion ends? If so this kinda sucks.

I think these changes are not Legion only. They would have to have two different versions of the game active at once, i don´t think so..
The video for the new Bladestormskill should be in standard, at least the scene with Bottled Faith, which won´t "drop once Synthesis ends. The ones that will be available are the ones that transfer to Standard/Hardcore when Synthesis ends." - qote Bex:

The tagging of monsters is going to be annoying as f*ck i think. Don't like that concept. Rest looks awesome.

Hi GGG, My question is if the mechanics like attack interruption also applies to other skills like spells or ranged bow gems.

Tyvm for the insight. I guess it would be strange for two seperate versions of PoE to be running simultaneously now that I think about it.

I am really looking forward to the legion mechanic. I hope it is really ending up as meaningful choice, meaning: 99.99% of all builds do not want to tag everything, except if they want to run to their doom. In that case, tagging for rewards would be really cool and daring to tag everything an accomplishment in itself. This would also allow to push the rewards way higher.


I am not so much concerned about tagging time, independent of difficulty level. This could be trivially implemented as "start event if within 3 seconds no enemy was tagged OR immediately after everything got tagged".

Looks fun! Cya in 3.7 ☺️

does minion be able to trigger legion mob during préparation phase? are they able to target them?

damaging the armies to release them is bad for many builds, and too tedious. if the armies were bunched up into separate groups, with some kind of switch that activates a group, it would benefit everyone since all anyone would have to do is activate the switch to release what group/groups they want to free. This doesn't have to be a lever. the switch could just something we walk through, like the breach portal, to activate/free that particular army/group....


Edit:not to mention using our skills to free them looks silly. Especially in the video where the player is doing a single spin to release them like a ballerina.

Wow... this has the potential to become one of the best leagues ever. Will be good to cleanse my pallet from the crap that was Synthesis... hopefully those "loading improvements" are coming soon too.
