Almost All Rediculous OP builds can be solved by simply removing all triggers.

Any opinions about the OP topic can be put to the side for a second here. Did this dude actually just use "pepegas" outside of a twitch chat?

Apparently, but I am too GenX to have a clue what that means.

And then build creativity has to suffer in order to balance the game, followed by it becoming even more apparent that endgame content is not at all balanced for non-op aoe spam and trigger builds.

It's taking a while for people to realise quite how botched this game really is.

It is clear from the design of triggers and skills and enemies that there is zero intent to have interesting gameplay.

Just think about one try per pinnacle boss. I know they are changing this, but the fact that they put it in says they have no interest in players engaging in boss mechanics.. because there is no reason to confront a 1try boss with a 30-100 hour retry grind, until one is massively overgeared.

XP loss (which i dont hate) does the same thing. Why take a risk and engage something hard, when the game will punish you for wanting to be challenged.

POE atlas is like an economy in deflation..there is no point in taking on any challenge encounter, when it will be easier tommorow than it is today (with more levels, gear, power)

In order to fix this, they would need to not only remove every trigger gem.. but also restructure the endgame around unlimited boss tries, no XP loss, and endless difficulty scaling of bosses.. so there would always be some content that is not trivially easy.
