Good luck guys, I've uninstalled.

I've seen the update video and the interview and both were disgusting. Not a single 'sorry guys, we messed up'. They were so relaxed in that interview, seemed so detached from the vibe of the community.

When Darth asked 'do you agree melee is the worst, with the worst skills etc' the director was laughing and be like wow that was so brutal. What do you mean brutal? It was a basic question. Makes me feel he never came to these forums, even out of curiosity.

I feel like they've fully embraced the employee style where you conserve your energy, put on horse glasses and don't care about anything else beside the thing that's the bare minimum for u to do. They don't seem in touch at all with what is happening.

I feel bad for paying for the early access. Its only me feeling like this? I'm just very disappointed


You made the right move, i didn't play for 2 weeks, this has been so great. I do enjoy way more other game, i keep checking this forum for patch note and announcement for poe 1 league tho
Are you certain grenades are intended to be that? Some of them do damage, obviously, but they read to me as being intended to be used alongside main standard crossbow ammo skills.

they can be used alongside standard ammo skills, but it's also possible to play a pure grenadier (wudijo played it on gemling)

in either case, grenades are dogshit

I mean that's saying it's possible and not possible at the same time.

Sure, you can just play with solely grenades, but it was also possible to play with just Bear Trap in PoE1 even if it was terrible (more terrible than pure grenades obviously, but the point remains).

bear trap is a support skill, explosive/gas/cluster grenade aren't

a pure bear trap build is no different from a pure oil grenade build, which would be pointless and crap

What if GGG sees explosive/gas/cluster grenade as a support skill for dealing with groups of enemies, and the intention is to use other skills, like the main crossbow skills, for bosses?

And if more weapons and skills are added, it could very well be there's a powerful weapon swap option available to grenade-focused builds that can use it for bossing as well.

There's a decent build that uses a quarterstaff swap to apply freeze for a main weapon crossbow Fragmentation Rounds, for example. Some of these options simply aren't in the game yet.

How so? They have a cooldown after all. Long cooldown= Not intended primary skill.

Possible.
Flash for maps,
Fire for bosses.

Works good. Donno about last part of endgame tho (T16+) but for T15 it worked okay.

I'm specifically talking about +4 pinnacles. T18 maps are trivial

I assume you've never played a grenade build? the cooldown doesn't matter since you get multiple uses and can basically spam them in endgame with some CDR investment

in that case they'd be completely wrong, because grenades are basically terrible for clearing maps (except gas grenade+radiant grief combo, but that's not very good either)

I like to think that I'll try it again at some point after it gets released. But I dunno, I've stopped playing like 1 week ago and I'm that they I've only felt dread looking at the icon.

I don't know what could convince me to go through this campaign again
