You guys dont get it. Talismans are real serious OP sht. I saw today morning such a bright example of that in endless delve! Too bad I didnt took it to link it now, it was beyond even standard filter, but it was TRULY gorgeous, I realised this only now, after saw this thread. It was like:

Blue talisman

+23% lightning damage in affix
And only one mod in suff:
12% lightning res

Thats it.
But imagine hows this OP!
Totally explains why this event is Voided.
Wholely Agree. It must be gone for good.
No way Standard will tolerate and stand such a huge hit!

Tormented Spirits usually show up just in time for me to notice them escaping. Even if I do hear them wailing somewhere, it's a craps-shoot, at best, to detect them in time to do anything about them. More frustrating than interesting, though having two of them show up and possess an act boss is also a rare but unpleasant experience. ='[.]'=

They don't remove trash but add more and more juicy trash with every league. Now we have scourged trash :D
They even implemented the option to not render it to improve game performance :D

Tormented spirit is one of the most frustrating mechanic in the game. The bloody AI doesn't even possess a rare that's next to it but prefer to run half across the map, missing one or two more rare mobs on the way, before going away without possessing anything.

Tormented Spirits are an essential part of Path of Exile.
How so?

It gets worse, if you have the bad idea to have tormented spirits with a jun mission, most of the spirits don't even bother to spawn in the actual map but spawn in the packed Research lab instead ...and still fail to possess most of the rares that are in the lab. I mean, what the fck?

I bet spirits possessing rares has a RNG to it. /s

The only way to have them possess something is to run essences Zana craft, or use the Atlas passive instead of Tormented scarabs.

I didn't say they should remove Tormented spirits, more like it needs some rework because the spirit's AI is as good as the AI that drives my toaster.

Yes, it's possible. They'll remove all the itemized prophecy from our inventories, I bet it's going to trim the db quite a bit.

I just hope they do something to replace the prophecies that were actually useful like the Twice enhanced Prophecy, and others like the tempests that add more item quantity, or the ones that add more Unique, magic or rare mobs.
