Absolution gameplay is worse than poop

I died during the acts countless times because i did a crucible encounter and there was no rare to spawn my Absolution Sentined

There was this white mob with insane amount of HP, it was a pain to kill

This stupid skill should spawn mobs on hitting ANYTHING, not just rares

It should be:

25% on normal mobs
50% on magic mobs
75% on rare mobs
100% on unique mobs

There are normal/magic mobs tougher than rares

At this point i'm not sure if i will keep level this character

Maintaining composure and staying polite is very hard past few years with PoE, i want to use words but that'll get me censored

I understand your team is busy with PoE 2

But whoever is in charge of PoE 1 should be fired, i hope he will not touch the development of PoE 2

Sad years to come if they do


TLDR: Absolution feels shit to play, make it so it has a chance to spawn sentinels on hitting ANY colored mob

Imagine having minions that require active playstyle WORSE than permanent minions, both in term of defenses and offenses, worse, it puts also the character at a risk for trying to spawn them

Not even blizzard would design such poop

Again, i reiterate, i'm being polite, the words that i want to express would get someone banned, so please understand that anger

When you play a game for fun, but its game designer disrespect the player with poop design

I'm pretty sure the designer is a aura stacker mageblooder


EDIT:

Forgot to add, initially i wanted to try the new Dominating Blow Vaal, but as you have guessed, it's worse than Absolution, since you now have to enter melee category with name locking(strike)

Play your game

All things considered, Absolution is far better than permanent minions. Zombies are weak, spectres keep getting nerfed to the point they're only good for utility anymore, AG is both weak and a massive money sink if it dies, Reaper's been terrible since the beginning. Absolution can still hold its own in fights. The new vaal version is an absolute powerhouse too.

The only thing that's bad with Absolution is the fact you need live enemies to create them, making them a lot more finicky to have up reliably.

I don't know if you are joking or not

You have the balls to tell me that Absolution is better than permanent minions

Please stick to the subject, i don't care about other skills, some skills deal 36m fire DOT and clear 4 screens away

Vaal absolution is useless if you can't spawn a sentinel

Absolution is useless if you can't spawn a sentinel while fightning a white or magic mob with 548475456874568746846848646848648468 hp tougher than a rare

The fact that the skill can't function while you fight an enemy is a broken game design

Then you have scaling issues for late game, go ask why everyone is running it with Doryani and dual ventor rings

Then go ask why Ghazzy isn't playing Absolution

The more you argue, the never it'll get improved and the more angry i will get

Why no Crucible node: "non vaal sentinels of Absolution have infinite duration"
Why not make the build much smoother for one season? And if this does not break anything add permanent methods to enable it.

Edited.

it is not your experience, not your feedback, not your suggestion

you != me

if you don't understand that please avoid commenting

if you are here to downplay a feedback or a suggestion, then i suggest you to not comment either

i am not here to find excuses to my complain and move on

i am not here to accept bad gameplay

i am here to suggest and provide feedback how to improve the problem i encounter

basic

at least absolution has a chance of spawning a useful minion.

Reaper/zomboi/spectre/holy relic are all super marginal

SRS is just a fireball with extra steps

Animate guardian is a fun way to lose currency

Skeletons are allright for 3 seconds and then explode

Phantasms feel worse than normal.

the complaint about absolution not spawning consistently is valid though. I guess we could use a writhing jar to generate them. Then you lose a flask slot for a kind of bad life flask

Smart fireball that scales with minion damage.

Hello i would like to introduce you to:

Please enjoy having things to kill on-demand.


I know its not ideal for all situations, but i've had to use both of these items in the endgame to try to sus out viability of some builds that unlike some other minions cant as easily be conjured in the middle of a bossfight.

Flasks? 🤢🤮

Thanks for suggesting worse gameplay, very appreciated

I discovered something else earlier today, this build needs doryani for endgame, even worse

Let me propose something better: i stopped leveling this build, instead i'll play something else

Sometimes i wonder why i inflict myself with so much pain, i should have known better
