POE will be the biggest loser this year
" Yeah it is maybe not non-risk but for the convenience and investment it is still way too powerul. You dont need all affixes to be high tier. Only focus on the biggest hole you have in your gear. That is the purpose of fracturing in the first place to prevent borderline cheatmode items with all having max tier affixes. I think that would be ridiculous, dont you maybe feel the same? Just a quick comparison. LE is like PoE current bench crafting on roids. Get a white item base (or magic/rare with already needed affixes) and craft up to four affixes (without RNG) what you currently need and pump up the affix you think is most worth to keep the fracuring (which you can delay with glyphs) low.

D2 with slightly better graphics is hardly a game changer imo. A 26 year old graphics engine "remastered" to a 23 year old graphics engine isn't going to cause a stampeed of new players.
Basically aimed at those hungry for memberberries. Blizzard are a joke and have been for decades at this point. They make baby games to attract the modern day soy milkers. They, just like EA haven't a single creative DEV in the entire employment roster so they have to rehash games that have already been hammered flat MANY times over. ME "my face is tired" anyone? Pass. I absolutely hate PvP outside of FPS like many others because PvP has been toxic for decades. D2 rehashed isn't POE in 2021, not close. |

" The difference is - LE has 4 affixes and PoE has 6. In theory LE's items are less broken than PoE's items because they can take advantage of a lower number of broken affixes. Also, you can't get tier 6 and 7 affixes through crafting so no full 6 T1 mods, thank you very much. Last edited by Johny_Snow#4778 on Apr 13, 2021, 3:24:12 AM

I have a bit of sour taste in my mouth with this update and they did not even nerfed things that had big impact for me. It's the cheapest they have done in years.
F for people who never experienced self curse explody pops and welcome to the autobomber era where literally the .1% gets richer instead of the 4-5%. Last edited by galuf#4435 on Apr 13, 2021, 3:27:09 AM

Funny that you mention T6 + T7 which are high tier affixes down the road.
It does not change the fact you can still item edit your way through with way less risks or RNG involved than for example playing SSF in PoE on a league launch. You can literally fill all gaps in your gear even during early campaign progression. Way easier than the limited options PoE benchcrafting has. If you like it its okay i guess. Some people like (a beefed up) Harvest craft and LE is a nice place to be. Masterpiece of 3.16 lore "A mysterious figure appears out of nowhere, trying to escape from something you can't see.

You can still craft items with t6 and t7 affixes. You just can't touch the purple ones, only remove them.

Every
Single Patch It's amazing people got nothing better to do. D2R will be the hype when it releases, but new content won't arrive. It'll be played (i'm looking forward to it aswell) but then a new PoE league arrives and people jump on that.. LE won't be a thing before Multiplayer hits.. i've played it some, but even then.. it'll be based on "seasons" or "leagues". It's always been like this... ALWAYS. |

" This is one of the best things for me in PoE. The quasi non-existence of pvp .. thus non-existence of typical PvP kids. ^^ |
