GGG You need to hire a balance team for POE2

Long time supporter here, love what you do but please for everyone sake including yours please hire a dedicated FULL TIME balance team to go over skills one by one and just look at the damage numbers. The damage numbers on 90% of the skills make no sense. 90% of the skills do far to little damage to even bother using.

You said you were going to make the skills better but I just spent the last few hours looking at all the elementalist skills and virtually every single one is terrible. Just look at the numbers and compare them to bonestorm or essence scatter or any other skill that is actually used.

Its mind boggling how you spend so much time building a great game and then leave your skills in such a ludicrously stupid state of balance.

If you do have a balance team already, fire them and hire someone new. If you cant do it yourself consult with some of your most knowledgable players.

The game cannot be enjoyed by most of your player base when you are forced to to follow a cookie cutter build to progress.

Please read the feedback of your game, it is polarizing. The game is "easy" to the players playing the few "good" builds and everyone else is miserbale. Getting the balance 10x better should be easy to at least start, just look at the numbers, do a little bit of simple math and make the skills at least on the same order of magnitude.

I think you are actually right. The campaign mode is still such a slog. Some skills can breeze through the campaign, and others are so fucking bad it's insane.

This is done on purpose, so that players spend more time in map, I don’t like this kind of gameplay, most of the skills really feel terrible, the game has lost its fun, and why would I want a game that doesn’t bring me pleasure.

As a result, we have that 50% of players play on the electric archer, there are no new interesting abilities in this league, I don't mind the archer, but I'm just tired of the same thing. No new type of equipment, no class, complete boredom, 0.2 was saved by the Amazon and the spear, in this league there is none of the above, so I stopped playing on the first day, people were expecting buffs, but as always they got a bunch of nerfs.

Now d4 against the background of poe 2 feels more pleasant. I've reviewed a bunch of skills, even minions, everything feels terrible..
