The Faster Start of Energy Shield Recharge crafted modifiers: The lower tier now grants 8 to 11% (from 12 to 17%) and costs an Orb of Alchemy (previously a Regal Orb), and the higher tier now grants 12 to 15% (from 18 to 24%) and costs 4 Orbs of Alchemy (from 1 Exalted Orb).

Oh COME ON!

LOL, that'll show them.

Just stop buying support packs. Protest with a no $$ to GGG/fiffycent campaign.

Yeah! How dare they balance and work on their own game, with their own time and resources, to the ends that they want instead of us! HOW DARE THEY MAKE A GAME THEY WANT!

HOW DARE!

Added 16 new Unique Items.
Added a vendor recipe for your spare Catalysts.

When do we see them ?

Arrows that collide with terrain now have a chance of bouncing off. This doesn't do anything other than look really cool (and help performance in situations where players are firing thousands of arrows).

can anyone see the paradox ? :)

You can no longer craft +1 to Maximum number of Curses on Body Armours or Unveil it from Immortal Syndicate members.

The Supported by Maim modifier from Serrated Fossils can no longer roll on Body Armours.

The added Maximum Life and increased Life modifier from Pristine Fossils can no longer roll.

Yeah...

Unless they mean the arrows will bounce off and disappear so the game doesn't have to track it anymore

Unique monsters have 10% more life. Ok, need some difficulty.

1. Good. This is a buff for melee.
Punishment now good.
Now causes cursed enemies to have -20% to Reduced Physical Damage Taken.
The duration of the buff granted by cursed enemies when they hit you now matches the base duration of the curse, which is 9 seconds at gem level 1 (from 4).

What about other curses that can use melee? Nothing.

2. Not a great change. "Monster resistances throughout the game have been reviewed and made more consistent. In many cases this has resulted in more resistances on monsters" That result in less utility with some melee skills that deal dmg as extra elemental.

3. Beyond than stupid.
Monsters throughout the game now have more armour, from 33% at level 1 up to 2762% at level 84.
Especially Idiotic for skills that deal fast small hits. And classes that depend on attack speed. Berserker less, Juggernaut more.
Armour was in good state.
Melee need buff, not a nerf.
Rares with big hp already hard to kill, look like it better now to avoid rare monsters often.

4. Hidden nerf. Two hand and dual wield clusters changed position. Shild cluster now in place of dual wield. Two hand is far away too. Totems on that place. Now you forced to take down path, or forger that clusters?

Good for shields, but need some additional connection paths to dual wield or two handed clusters for better experience.

5. Point blank nerf for projectile skills.. Some melee skills use projectiles.
50% less on distance wasnt good. But does it worth point now? I think something like "25% more dmg close. 10% less far away" could be better. Or even 20% more close to (-5.. +0)% far away is better.


I really disappointing with changes 3, 4. Still want to test if punishment can help now.

lovin that portal, cant wait!

"

The Veiled and crafted modifiers with hybrid defenses (Armour, Energy Shield or Evasion) and life have had their values halved, and their tier progression split by item type.

I presume this doesn't include the Hybrid ES + Stun and Block recovery mod and others similar right ? just the hybrids with life are affected correct ?

Nerfs, nerfs, nerfs. So pathetic. Was hoping for something positive from this after the manifesto, but nope.

Volatile Dead
Now has a limit of 60 Orbs.

This is so counter to what Path of Exile used to be about. You make fun skills, and when people actually use them, you make them impossible to have fun with. Only you, GGG.

truly a tragedy
