Change my mind: Sentinel is just torment league updated.

Instead of encountering random ghosts you are the ghost whenever you want. This whole league would be just a line in 10 pages of patch notes in the past. Now it's a whole league...

Hope it doesn't turn into a ghost league nonetheless. Please support them so that they can keep working on PoE 2 since it will fix EVERYTHING.

I said this in another post but GGG seems to currently have more staff in the marketing department than real game dev's. When was the last time GGG attemtpted to make their game more fun? Think about it. There is just no passion.

Every league is the same refurbished stuff...

GGG developing :

1. Take a mechanic we already have but add another effect to it and more junk associated with loot.
2. Shuffle maps.
3. Shuffle map device possibilities.
4. Add some new uniques that will be either broken and unattainable for 90% of the people, or trash to dilute the drop pool
5. Nerf or buff some passive tree points for people to find another class to play cuz the previous is no broken and call it build diversity.

And that is basically every league.

I think torments a really good what is this league like tbh, torment with more control over ghost placement.

If it means they remove torment after i'm all in, it'll be worth it, get outa my game ghosts! Especially you Martyr especially you...

If it is, then that's a good thing.

It's a big update to that type of content and is a massive upgrade of this part of the game. It will make way for removing torment.

This is nothing but a hugely positive outcome.

Yeh they recycling old material last league was Metamorph 2.0

Whats ironic, though, is they always pick something shitty to refurbish. A Torment mechanic?

They could literally repackage a ton of other actual GOOD leagues and people would be happy.

Nah, lets just dust off something as terrible as Torment.

And then to top it off, do hardly anything else with the league start. I can see a mediocre mechanic if stuff got really shaken up, real new content, items/builds/etc but to have a terrible mechanic AND no changes.

This just seems like a throwaway league from day 1. I"m gonna dabble ONLY because I got nothing else going on game-wise and I just upgraded my PC so I want to see how it runs. Outside of that, I already see myself quitting 1 week, 2 weeks max, into the league.

Depends what your definition of fun is - for me the game is way more fun now that they removed the atlas regions & watchstone grind and added the atlas passive tree. Atlas passives will be even better this league with the ability to completely prevent some past league content from appearing. All these changes probably aren't that evident though if you didn't make it past act 2...

you shittalk about the league before you even tested it ?


what a sissy ...

The mechanic itself seems super duper bad, but you never know until you try it. It could be so rewarding with a single sentinel that you won't have to juggle 3 sentinels unless you're running super juiced maps. You just throw all the garbage sentinels into the synthesizer without looking at the mods and hope for something good.

The main hook of the league for me is the Recombinators. If the Recombinators can realistically make amazing items for yourself the league is a win. If the odds are Scourge-level bad it's probably gonna be a skip.
