Your Thoughts On New 3.15 Patchnotes?

Oh no people that I dont even message ingame are quitting this is so gonna ruin my experience of path of exile.

Personally I don't mind the nerfs though I think they are pretty extreme, some builds are gonna lose more than the 40% they think is a maximum due to additional multiplier sources being removed/lowered.

Like ignite builds that didn't have combustion on main link, or bonechill cold dot equivalent etc.

Then we've got higher mana multipliers, so more recovery required and less auras is likely.

I can handle all that though, heavy strike finally made it into the 300% multipliers which is pretty insane for a skill I like.

What I think is gonna kill them is they didn't make these changes in couplet with endgame changes, doing awakening bonus/maven unlocks/maven contracts/watchstones with these values is going to be the worst fucking slog i've experienced since playing an original style mmo except I have to do it every 3 months.

I can't overstate how big of a mistake I think this is, i'm perfectly willing to be wrong maybe players won't care but I think they are gonna get shafted when now slower players face the mountain of setup content thats effectively been doubled.

Im hyped for the flask changes, and a new challenge, fuck the nerfs we will adapt, had hoped for auto pickup (shards, currency ect.) but this is something every other ARPG have, so it will come.

WEll, I am not amused or happy about the nerfs. But I am not as much disappointed as others seem to be. Just think of a game what is continously buffed by each patch, expansion or league, what would be the end today - a game totally unbalanced, where characters are totally overpowered and it is more like mario cart racing through a map. I don´t like this. It would be like d3, when again and again the theme is and then we doubled it.
Does not mean I would not like to play it for some time to have fast fun.

For me PoE is still not an easy rush through game, even after some years.
I am happy when my heroes reach level 94 and are working in red maps. Even those maps are not juiced up to the maxx.

So your character was able to kill boss XY in 10 seconds and now you would have to fight 20 seconds, does this really matters? We are playing a game and are not fleeing from bank robbery. As long the game is fun, the game gets continously improved, updated, upgraded and each league or Expansion there will be new skills, items and mechanics - for me this is okay.

Some of you will quit or just tell everyone to quit just because of nerfs, that also could be called balancing.
If your favorite skill now is weaker, but you have more fun because of the new balance, isn´t this not better? Always you can read topics about the game gets to easy by the time and now when they act to this problem, it is bad? Sorry but, I still think you can play the game by solo selffound without trading and get to endgame even with those nerfs.
You can also play the game by having no cost for the game. So be happy or if you could not stand the newest patch content, there is still the easy game from other producer.

I'm curious what the Chinese client will do with this. They have so much quality in life in their game to make it easier, maybe they will just skip the nerfs and just take the new gems.

I paly the poe over 10 years

This new ver is the Worst game

bookmarking this for when Murder comes back :P

Last Epoch, the game I laughed at and mocked as the major PoE copycat, has already become my main game. When? Just after the announcement of the 3.15 nerfs.

After 4 years of enjoyment and investment in time and money, it's time for me and PoE to part ways...

Farewell PoE, still the best ARPG out there. I will not have fun playing this game any more so... I'm welcoming my new, shining Last Epoch era!

It's a league of nothing but nerfs.

Less Damage
Less Speed
Less builds
Less flasks

and then they added? Oh...right...barely anything. A copy pasted league mechanic that is YET another trade window...3 in counting ggg and a colossal 19 new gems I assume will mostly end up as vendor fodder like the last few rounds of skill gems.

For everything removed not a single ounce of fun was put back. That's my true issue. You wanna slap your boring nerfs and slam brake pedals into anyone trying to zoom fine, but you can't just take that enjoyment away, replace it with nothing and expect me to like it lol.

I am seeing Last Epoch brought up a lot and Lost Ark on the horizon for the west too. Maybe it's time to put Chris Wilsons slow Vision...err PoE I mean, to rest and go somewhere else. Time will tell. This leagues a massive disappointment though for how little was added to make the changes not be so glaring.

GGG don't pay any respect to the players. That's the feeling I have with these nerfs. I respect their will of not listening to the community but changing things like that just goes in the sense of much more tough, more struggle, less fun. More time to spend, more rips , but nothing in exchange.
They are adding new currencies so more things to pickup. All that make the change very violent. I would have enjoyed an autopickup pet to help the transition but no way.
GGG's message clearly is: we don't care a f. about you, just shut up and buy our supporter packs. But this is over for me.
