Please, make some sense. It's obvious that GGG had the increase some values. We got a new act, new endgame material, and people should try that with the same gear? I think that we have a level 82 map now...


Are people really suggesting that GGG should have kept the same values and f*ck with it? How does this makes sense?

People have been asking for Act 4 for months, and now, apparently people wanna be put to sleep by Kaom. Really. Try it. You will. I'm not saying that GGG should make OP things, but it's only reasonable to balance the game.

If you guys were advising GGG to make low rolls forbidden for 50+ players, I would agree... It's ridiculous having a 2h Mace with a 1-2 attack damage boost... but apparently, people would complain anyway... that would make crafting a lil' bit easier. I can imagine: Aw... now everyone can get decent rolls, especially with Masters boo hoo.

Good job GGG ;)


Personally, I am OK with the new mods. They are good. And I agree with you, if there is a new, more difficult content, we need more powerful mods.

But combinig the new mods with current functionality of the mirror is disastrous.

Current situation for 90% of the perma-league players:
I need a good item.
I can craft it but I need 5,000 currency to do it and obviously I don't have that kind of currency.
I see someone selling the item I want with almost perfect mods for only 350 currency but it is mirrored. So I buy it.


This will not change after the new mods.
The boring, the uncreative, the not-fun "Buying-mirrored-is-cheaper-than-crafting-so-I-don't-craft" circle will continue.

Before 2.0:
Only very few players have 50,000 currency.
They craft the T1 item with their wealth and mirror it again and again for profit.

After 2.0:
Only very few players have 50,000 currency.
They craft the T1 item with their wealth and mirror it again and again for profit.

See?

This game started this way. Inflation always happens and then it cools down. It's the best day ever because new items will rise and old items will have their own economy. Time to go back to basics and grind back, buy and sell back, or whatever you got to do. The people crying are those that want their items to stay the top and watch the same items ruin this game over and over. I for one see this game dying with the same mirrored items floating around with nothing new to shoot for. Sorry, but the logic of this like real life is not valid in my mind. The more simple thought is to say life is to short to have the same economy not get rocked and develop a new era of weapons. Like said earlier, it's a risk now as well to those that want to craft with the threat/paranoia that GGG can change values of items at anytime.

This is the best thing ever.

Is there a reason why you respond to postings that you did not bother to read? I mean seriously saying one sentence like "This is the best thing ever." over and over again while completely ignoring everything other people try to explain to you is pointless. Like BurakUeda said the mirror prices went higher and higher as we speak (btw eternals do so too). Every endgame crafter is already ready for the new crafting session and most of the richer standard players have enough currency to buy this next generation of mirrored items. This will not hurt any of the top players or crafters. This will not even affect the upper midgame players (they will buy the soon cheaper old mirrored gear). This will only affect the poor and/or casual players. If you feel the need to post "This is the best thing ever." again feel free to do so but at least try to explain why you think this change could hurt the top players like you said more than just a few times now.

Delay BETA for longer! Please!

You didn't think about DEFENSE at all!
Armour? Sux!
Casters defense? Sux!
Melee defense? SUX!


Bow? Best option and best clear speed! Also free kill boss, easy and very super safe.

Is that balance? That you want?

It is a fresh start to Standard. That's what it is, not much more to explain than the posts I've made and the supporting posts of people here. That is why this definitely the best thing to ever happen to PoE. The only logical thing GGG could change was adding a higher tier to the item base. It is perfect!

It will return to the same if the conditions are kept identical. People will create new mirror gear again. The reset will be futile.

That's how some people look at it. Others look at it completely the opposite.

So, to me, this is the best thing ever.

Thanks GGG!

Well nothing really, standard was always doomed. So what better? Nothing! This is the greatest move in the history of all that is mighty PoE.
