Is Heist Worth Jumping Into?

As always the first week or so of a league is a buggy, crash filled, overturned shitshow.

The league goes for months, so if you really want in I'd wait for a bit til the patches make it a reasonable experience.

*not to mention all the issues with the new hub, collision blocking, and more. I get GGG wants us to see all those MTX in use, but seriously, its bad.

Didn't like Harvest because of its complexity and because it didn't really add anything to the game besides crafting while maps felt empty, bland and with no loot.

Now I'm close to finishing Trails of Cold Steel I and trying to decide between Heist or some single player game, but haven't really seen any discusions about people loving/hating Heist like it was with the Harvest. Mostly only topics about bugs or how particular builds fail because of the alert.

So what do you think about Heist mechanics? Are they exciting? Worth checking out?

I would test it out. It feels a lot better in practice than it looked in trailers. It has a lot of problems currently, but it's mostly flat-out bugs that will likely be fixed soon.

Lots of people are also really REALLY butthurt they might have to play slightly differently for this mechanic. If you like variety and challenge, this is unlikely to bother you.

if you just want extra loot during your zoom zoom, probably pass on the league.

More than anything, the league has incredibly high quality flavor, art, and voice acting. The out of combat mechanics of the rogues and their equipment is really cool too, and adds depth without being a horrifying pain in the ass like betrayal.

Ps. You need a tanky non-summoner. They might keep nerfing tank builds, but they did succeed in encouraging us to build tanks.

just do not try it before whatever mid week patches they drop.

Is Heist worth jumping into? I have no freaking idea whatsoever. I decided to skip the Harvest completely. Now I wish to come back to play some Path of Exile again, since having such a long break, and now I watched the Heist Reveal Trailer, which seems like interesting enough, read some positive/negative feedback, which really doesn´t mean shit to me, and so I have decided to I want to jump in and just go for some pure gaming again.
And then I fugure out if I like it or not after a week or two.

I wouldnt, kind of sick of poe. Even stopped watching anyone stream this game. From what I can tell this league is pretty bad.

heist is buggy and crashes all the time.

when it crashes you will lose all loot picked up.

pick up a mirror, crash, lose mirror

your choice

first of all, heist being buggy and crashing all the time is SUBJECTIVE and not OBJECTIVE. so this guy may not have your issues.

second, lets not throw out scenarios that will not happen. the chances of you picking up a mirror in heist and then crashing and losing that mirror in heist is so beyond improbable that its mathematically zero.

wait until they fix all the issues which probably won't happen until a month later
