looks like 50% of players will be gone after 10 days of a league. After finding out about homo omen, i think i will after 3k of hours take a rest for 4 months . Im not sure why instead of limiting targeted crafting to max tier 2 affix instead of totally removing it was not a option. Now again omen of whittling will be rare and double the price for far worse chance of getting a good desirable result and if ritual tablets are not fixed,,, meh, no , i will pass this league.

So, if i'm not wrong: - Crafting removed from the game via homogenising, back to random trash items and orb slaming and pray... congrats in hearing stupid streamer's opinions, 0.3 was peak for making good and affordable items. RIP. - No endgame rework. The atlas still shit both in being infinite and having horrible, trash navigation. - No new trial. ========================================= But at least we got the drood and the temple. Will they make up for the rest? We'll see... So, partially happy, partially disappointed.	Posted by LeonardoSilvaDF#3295 on Dec 4, 2025, 11:03:33 PM Quote this Post

As I stated even if many of us don't like it, a whole slower gameplay is good for the game itself. Their initial plan was to update poe1 to poe2 btw. Slower gameplay is always much worse than faster gameplay. Less loot is always much worse too. You have league stats that show us what players like. Players like zoom zoom builds and many shiny things on their maps. Its a non brainer actually. Majority of players dont have time for the games and they just want to have fun on weekends. Now tell me, how many days it will take for average poe player, that works and have family to climb to t15's? I bet more than a half of poe2 playerbase never killed Arbiter. Slower gameplay = dead game on arrival for sure. thas't what 1% of the player base? dad gamer argument is actually dead on arrival. yes we boomers are the vast majority. The average poe player plays 2-3 hours a day, and if you cared to read patch notes, tehre are less monsters but better loot., that will be held true until experienced.

The endgame after tower removed was terrible. And it will be even worse in the next league. After spending 4 hours on the livestream and the PN, I found I wasted 4 hours. And I shoud not waste more time on the Terrible POE2.	Posted by lowlowlowererer#6467 on Dec 4, 2025, 11:35:19 PM Quote this Post
I dont understand what ascendancy I am supposed to play as the Shapeshifter Druid? Theres no ascendancy with shapeshifting support? I don't want to play Warrior in order to enjoy shapeshifting....	Posted by Feariors#4092 on Dec 4, 2025, 11:37:04 PM Quote this Post
Stormcaller Arrow: Projectile now converts 80% of Physical damage to Lightning damage (previously 40%). Bolt now has Shocks Enemies as though dealing 50% more Damage. Bolt now converts 100% of Physical damage to Lightning damage (previously 80%). thats not correct. Arrow is 20% of physical damage to lightning. Bolt is already 100%	Posted by m1nx#0107 on Dec 4, 2025, 11:39:52 PM Quote this Post
" Wykyng001#2510 wrote: tehre are less monsters but better loot., that will be held true until experienced. Are you new here? If there are nerfs to loot in patchnotes, then its a poverty league. Its basically a rule here. They never compensate nerfed stuff. Look on what they did to poe1 3.27. Worst league in years, and they did same thing they are doing now in poe2. On top of that abyss now is kinda rare, till we get adequate tablets. No quant on tablets too. I hope there are new farm strategies, but im sceptical, especially after 3.27 league.
