Nerf fest is coming

The Mastery changes are AWFUL. Making it harder and harder for us to get the auras we need.

You're not going to be able to get all the aura's you need anymore. They killed at least 2 auras from most builds. The skitter bot RMR change is a HUGE nerf. Many builds use Skitter bots, well they use to use skitter bots, I doubt they will anymore. Huge damage nerfs and huge defense nerfs.

I don't care about this "well we don't know what we will find on the Crucible trees". I don't see this going core, we are going to see the most powerful weapons ever. GGG isn't fond of keeping super OP mechanics as core.

LOL
They nerf stuff, players get mad.
They don't nerf stuff, players get mad.

Same crap, different league. Fun to watch people get up in arms about it.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
It is enjoyable to figure out new stuff. It is a nice shakeup on the one hand, but yeah it's kind of a nerf fest. The league mechanic has to be awesome and produce a certain amount of power level to cover for it.

Farm Essences of Loathing craft Helm + an armor with no life mods on it but mana reservation for the 15% life mastery? xd

Farm delve for Determination Amulet?^^

Roll some influenced amulets and boost them with catalyst for 60% reservation eff.?

Gonna have to work for it, hehe

speccing into mana reservation mastery doesn't look pretty for a lot of builds it seems like. Costs a lot of points :(

They are balancing skills and support gems based off "racing" and their early game. Just no comment... What a joke. The changes are actually bad for both racers and casuals, completely out of touch.

Are you ready? Did you buy shiny glowy MTXs for spark, seismic trap and srs to never touch these skills again?

Hurry up! Sale will end soon!

Nerf fest because of 3 skills? I wonder if some of you actually witnessed the 3.15 patch if you call nerfing 3 skills, from which 2 performed exceptionally well since a while now. Im honestly looking forward for stuff to be changed so its not league 10 with seismic reigning surpreme


Well, we can easily call it nerf fest if we look at the rest of the picture though. Or just self sabotage fest. Because what was done with the masterys, just not cool at all. Inneficient as far as fun is concerned.

Not at all.
I don't know where you found all that manicheism when looking the complains, fair ones, that we can see all around this forum.
When GGG get things right, people will in majority agree. When it's wrong, people will also say it. And oh boy, this patch is terrible as far as smart and creative developing is concerned. My only conclusion, is that we're going to see even more people leaving the game.
Maybe even I will.

You hear the same thing every league. This is not new. I have been here since closed beta, I have seen it year in and year out. People leave, sure. Some come back, some don't, some new players come. Just the way it goes, especially on a game that has been actively played for 10+ years. POE 2 will invigorate and get some more players, but the cycle goes on every year.

Removing reservation masteries without addressing orginial cause of why aurastacking is mandatory for most viable characters is "not a nerf-fest" indeed. Thank you for breaking my main character, now I really feel the consequences of my support and buying packs from you.

Not the first time they've changed the passive tree so I don't see any problem about it.
Besides "(New) 12% increased Mana Reservation Efficiency of Skills" is much better than the previous mastery for just a specific defensive aura.

It can't be so hard to adept to changes, but I guess it's easier to droll over some standard graveyard stuff instead lol. Not like your build is entirely lost out of the sudden
Flames and madness. I'm so glad I didn't miss the fun.
