As an unfortunate result, PoE is more susceptible to desync and when it does happen it has more significant impact on the player's gameplay. http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/175363 Desynch and why its not "fixable" In other games - you get a cookie whether you win or lose. PoE not only takes your fuckin' cookie and eats it in front of you, it slaps you upside the fuckin head a few times for bringing a cookie in the first place.

Bullshit. Having some methods blocked is not equal to all methods blocked; tpapp is just explaining (correctly) why GGG can't just copy-paste D3 netcode to fix the issues. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.
