They're still a hazard in Lunaris part 2, but where they really shine (suck?) is on eater altars where their spawning is synchronized and so is their focus fire.

the source of many of my ragequit moments.

i m clearing the map so casually, deleting enemies left and right then i suddenly get burst by a hundred titty shaker projectiles.

They should make their projectiles bounce from walls, too, for good measure. ;o)

Nope. The closest I came to using the forum to trade was when people would PM me to close/delete redundant trade threads.

Only time I looked at a noticeboard in game was to admire Reaper's little shout out. :)

And Ondar's Guile was always second fiddle to Arrow Dancing.

As for my Remember When...remember when the only content creator to talk about Path of Exile literally spent one half hour video explaining WTF it...was? RIP TB. Kripp had nuffin on you, mate.

I miss him too. Was a fantastic content creator, as it's called now, and did a better job covering games than so-called journalists.

Saw his ancient WTF is Terraria a few months ago, which made me want to play it again.

Alas, I miss music and video stores, and games stores too. It was always fun to kill time by going in there and looking at the boxes, reading the back of it, or listening to music. Something has been lost.

just keep moving. To miss vast majority of the projectiles you just need to move a bit in one direction away from the focal point. So this is very 'git gut' mechanic, in contrast with 30-50 porcupines in a closed room lol

haha I block them with a totem but yeah they do typically have a focal point usually in a doorway, always helps to put some ordnance in ahead of you

Remember the old ambient tsss-tss tss tsss act 2 chamber of sins music? Sounded very dank, like the mouldy hallways themselves.

Remember Synthesis. My memories are fading.

Lets see, i remember diamond flask before it got nerfed to shit, guaranteed crit on use, all you had to do was stack as much crit multi as possible, ended up they had to remove it for rebalance before enabling it again.

I also remember them nefing lightning arrow because it's AoE portion could hit everything in it's range, coupled with shotgunning...it now has a cap on how many it can hit.

And i remember when areas had a specific monster pool so you could avoid certain ones if they caused you trouble.

I remember when......that's why I did not play D2 Remastered even though I played D2 about as much as any human on the planet. It was good for the time. Same with old POE, good for the time.

Anyway, as far as I am concerned the game is in great shape and with all the stash tabs, 3rd party apps/information and the fabulous Atlas Passives the game is light years better than before. Not even close.

What do I remember about early POE? Mainly that I sucked for a long time until I put in the time to get good. As it should be. So, there is no "remember when" for me except to contrast how far we have come.
