…..what even is this take?

Mapping as always been about aoe masher


Why would you go into a map with a single target skill and be like “IVE GOT THe NeW STrAT BoYs”

And you don’t see a problem with that?..

No

Nope. No problems at all.

What would be your suggestion ?
Do endulge us with a detailed example and how it would affect 300k players long term.

That wasn't always the case. Only for people who joined after 2016.

how could doing more damage to more monsters at once ever be worse than doing less damage to less monsters at once?


youre basically trying to argue that being more effective shouldnt make you more effective, it doesnt even make sense as a concept.

how much aoe and damage the game allows you to gain is a question of balance. the idea that having more of those things is ever not the right choice for someone making a build is ridiculous. its a game where you kill monsters and they drop items, the more you kill the more items you get. thats not a problem that needs fixed thats the game.

1. PoE1 endgame sucks, that is why majority of players quit 1 month in the league. We don’t need PoE1 endgame in PoE2 to drag the game down.

its the best endgame in any arpg ever created by 1000 miles.

if you think it sucks then thats your take, nothing wrong with having that opinion but maybe endgame arpgs are just not for you because i really dont see how anyone could make a serious argument that any other arpgs endgame is even remotely close to path of exiles.

By staying true to the vision of the game they kept showing and talking before early access? By not building every league mechanic that caters to aoe mashing playstyle? By building endgame closer to campaign?

There are are millions of solutions yet they chose the easiest and stupiest of them all - PoE1 endgame.

And you don’t need me to tell me how it will affect the playerbase. You got PoE1 charts to illustrate it.

The hell does this have anything to do with aoe skills and single target skills

Did you even play the campaign or just RMT’d best gear and just blasted through it all? Because I can’t comprehend how are you even asking this when you had a perfect example of how it could be done.

Is that why 70% PoE1 players quit once they reach endgame in a given league?

Yeah I think the key there is that you're comparing it to about 5 other games.

You tell me. You’re the one talking about single target skills.

Yeah, there is such a disconnect between campaign and end game.

I would love to see actual actual Action gameplay like the "A" in ARPG would suggest. instead off zoom zoom play with one hand and watch Netflix in between.
And if supposedly thats what these games are all about, fine but stop calling them Action RPG's, call them looter RPG's or characterbuilder RPG's or something. Because there is no Action gameplay in them.

I was under the impression that POE 1 would be for the zoom zoom gameplay.And Poe 2 would be different. And the campaign defnitely gave the impression it would.

Thing is there are quite some things that would need an overhaul, especially enemies and league mechanics.
