Buffed Summon Spectre variants of certain monsters in each Act and their Endgame variants. Further details on which monsters have been adjusted will be posted separately prior to release.

I doubt that there will be new minion as good as ant, but who knows. Lets wait and test, maybe there will be new turbo spectre:)

Just trust us bro, isn't good enough. With the amount of underperforming options and broken AI, its hard to have any faith that we will be getting anything decent.

Barely any endgame improvements in POE2 and worst retention in POE1 league, splitting the game into 2 was the worst decition of the companys history

Please add summary of Relic modifiers at the start of Trial of the Sekhemas.
For example: total "#% to Honour resistance" from all relics combined.

It's currently not easy to see for example how much Honour resistance relics provide in total.

The problem with Keepers league was the huge mistake of having provisioning womb gifts - the others are all fine, but any league that has introduced an alternate method of crafting which makes all others pretty redundant, has failed hard (eg Necropolis).
Other than that the league hasn't been bad at all.
Im still playing it, chasing the last few challenges, and am enjoying myself.

Please change herald of plague to reflect pathfinder losing Cotagious Contamination, a lot of poison spell builds are going to be impacted by this, could also look into Herald of Plague being changed as well and leave the major elemental heralds to martial weapons due to their strength.

How could u remove Homogen. Omens without any replacement and throw us back in middle age 0.2 crafting??

We dont need a slot machine to spit out our items. let us make em ourselfs !

This is prolly gonna be the worst patch since release. nerf, more combos, more charges that are tedious af in poe 2, less mobs, less crafting.

Wtf is this direction?

Played poe1 this Keepers league, last time when i played poe1 was more than 10y ago, i was playing diablo3 at that time and never went back to diablo since then. Just played poe1 to make a difference between poe2 and poe1. Poe2 i m playing it since 0.1.

Poe1 has content, alot of content. But is a solo play most of the time, the field of view is narrow, the graphics and animations are old, especially during campaign, as you advance from act1 till endgame you will feel how the years passed over poe1 in design and technology used at that specific time when each act was created.

In poe1 i hit lvl100 in 1 week, in poe2 in 3-4 weeks in 0.3. The thing that is harder to hit max lvl in poe2 is nice, keeps u with a goal, at least for me max lvl in any game is a target to reach 1st.

Poe1 even if it has nice content u get bored fast of it, the reason for that, in my perspective, is because is not a team play like poe2 is. Playing in a team with friends is much more fun than solo playing. After we hit our targets in 0.3 we started deli150 maps with overrun and increase difficulty with each pit closed, or rare monsters are in a soul link with boss map, we had alot of fun running those maps in a team, very challenging and many times we had to use some strategies to be able to clear them!

You guys will say that poe1 can be played in teams too, agree with that, but when u are in a fight in full team u wont be able to see anything on screen, like nothing, u press the buttons and u move blind around the maps, i you die you dont even know what killed u. This is not happening in poe2, poe2 only because of field of view is much more playable in a team even if there are many skill effects on screen.

Another thing that makes poe1 good to play, as a poe2 player, is that to see the content and to learn it, because the mechanics comes to poe2 one by one, sometimes under other forms but similar/better effects.

I recommend to try poe1 to any poe2 players, just for the content.

Back to poe2, is beautiful, has a beautiful lore, has beautiful graphics and animations. Is still a beta version, an early access dont forget that. Game gets better and better with each patch. This 0.4 is huge just because shapeshifting, not because of druid class. Any class can shapeshift and take advantage of that on weapon set2.

Poe1 has 12-13years of content, but i dont know, i, even if it has content, i got bored after i hit lvl100, got endgame gear, farmed t17 maps, killed pinnacle bosses, ubers, got a mirror too from gambling divine cards, but still, poe2>poe1 for me and period.

Poe2 will be (for me it is already) the best game. GGG are just incredible with all the beautiful work they made and continue to make.

Yawn.

on the fence for this league. the nerf bats were out in full force and good stuff is junk and OP stuff is now even more OP.

R.I.P. Cocaine ants.

I was really hoping for delve this league and that was shot to hell. might be time to go back and play enshrouded or SotF or maybe Soulmask.
