2.1.0c Hotfix

I do not like this change to the quality bonuses for Curse on Hit and Temporal Chains. Those were some of the gems I tried to get using Perfection in Darkshrines, and I was looking forward to using them in builds (temp chains with a freeze mine dual-wield Cameria's Maul build, and CoH in anything, really, especially before I knew about Blasphemy). In general, it seems that gem quality bonuses have been getting more irrelevant as time goes on (I miss the exciting idea of the Firestorm one, for example) and I am saddened by this. Since it is difficult/time-consuming to get 20% quality gems, I would prefer if the bonuses were worth the effort by being strong or even quirky, build enabling things.

What bothers me the most is how the quality bonuses are pretty much across the board useless with the exception to Blasphemy which I don't mind and actually like. Curse on Hit and Temp chains got hit the hardest.

GGG do that again.

When people were farming spirits with reverse knock-backs (few ppl, very risky at HC 3M league, not possible (or hard to achieve) in other league) instead of nerfing that unique, they FLAT NERF entire spirit to this day.

When 1 person decide to make fun video, they nerf curses at spot. Without asking video's maker for info, or veteran player (not me of course) what to do.

GGG definition of balancing game!

the thing is they wont revisit the issue to balance it again for a long long time thats the issue for me i think

i honestly could have sworn they would have done something like curse effectiveness on mobs similar to the pvp curse effectiness thing they did but i guess not

"working as intended right"?

Bye new gem...

And also... stop blaming the user who found this. It's not his fault if GGG testing team isn't capable of doing their work.

He could have just send the Video to GGG they would have had a ton of time to carefully balance this and take care of the situation. now they had to fix it ASAP otherwise ppl with the item could have gone rampage in the mean time!

The entire point of trying out new builds is to try and break the game. He's just way better at it than you, or any of the rest of us.

Oh so now it is about you to determine what the point of the game is for me?!

Ill tell you something, if ppl would stop trying to break the game we all would have a way better time playing it, this whole meta shift mechanic abuse crap makes it so that ppl can not enjoy the game!

Il tell you what the point of the game is for me! I want to have fun, thats it! i don't care for races the ladder or other ppl, as for me this is a SP game, i only trade if i have to and i don't join groups!
I want to play a build that i enjoy playing, not that is strong or broken! I want to enjoy it and have fun! whenever i find one that i feel comfortable with it gets ruined! And this curse effectives remove is just another example of it! They just made curses unplayable just like they did with SRS...

The reason i hate gudda is bc he does not play the game, his entire joy comes from trying new builds creating extremes and trying to break the game as much as he can! the server crash issue should have made it clear already! He does not care for the game or its players! He showed to every single one of his viewers how to cause instance crashes! This could have had way bigger consequences than it had! (or that we know about) Hes a f***** sociopath and ppl like you are backing his destructive behavior!
What the does is not ok! not in the least! he is shaking a unsteady construct hoping for it to collapse! And on top of that he shows other ppl how to do so! Poe is a incredible complex game with a lot of mechanics that interact with each other and is hard to balance, and it is hard to keep everything in mind! Also GGG isn't a huge company and does not have as many resources to work with and/or employed to work on everything.
They do a great job at what they are doing, and this horrible "hotfix" is 100% guddas fault!
he deserves the "a**Hat" no one else!

Sry if i offender anyone, again. But covering my words in honey and flowers isn't my style.

... so you're basically saying it's Ghuddas fault GGG is bad at testing what they're developing? ... seems reasonable.

That stuff like this even make it into the end game is downright bad game development. There's a reason testing is part of every development cycle.

No its guddas fault for making it public and forcing GGG to more or less disabling the game mechanic responsible for this! With some time they may have come up with a better and fitting solution for the problem! You may have came to the same conclusion wouldn't you be distracted by trying to climb into guddas rectum and/or bashing on GGG which for some reason a lot of ppl seem to enjoy these days.

Okay so.
First: I dont' give the SLIGHTEST of fu*ks about that dude. Hell. I even just saw the video after the nerf got patched in.
Second: There's an exploit in the game. GGG's testing team didn't figure that out. End of story. That's just how it is.
This part has NOTHING to do with gudda figuring it out or not. God knows how many issues there are still in the game, that just hasn't been found.

Even so, it does not change the fact thats its his fault that GGG had to resort to such means!
And thats the single only point i try to make here!

Thats just not fair blaming one single person for this whole "mess".

They could've just keept that "broken mechanic" for one day longer in the game but than fix it properly.

Imho this time GGG f***ed up big time.
