Announcing Path of Exile: Bestiary League

GGG staff reveal a tiny bit of content and triggered millenials lose their mind, when duelist/slayer is the only char to just survive more than 8 seconds on ubber elder no one bats an eye.

Its not only PoE community toxic, its in all other games the same community. To be honest the thing that hurts the most is that every once in a while you have to clear your ignore list.

I see people of great demands and desires. And veterans players divide themselves from the community as elitist and put all others by the tag of nooblets. I.E. i kill shaper/elder my opinion matters more. I guess to GGG money matters above all, else the game wont exist, so better start donating those pakcs'n'shit.

There are some leagues superior than others. Nobody is forcing you to play or even nobody is forcing you to open your browser. Its your choice to do it and get triggered, so either improvise-adapt-overcome or act and be oppressed by anything. Its a matter of choice not a matter of living.

I wonder though, why would anyone want a T11 upgraded to a T16?
Seems to me that's not beneficial because the map won't drop a shaper set fragment and also won't have good positioning on the Atas for sextanting with Journeyman Sextants because yellow maps are usually not in range for a red map.

You can upgrade ANY map to T16. This is not restricted to T11s

I am not sure how to feel about this post.
Until I am completely with agreement with the 1st part, the 2nd part is completely denying the 1st.
So.. Are You supporting the movement "YOUR CHARACTER WILL BE WORTHLESS IN NEXT UPDATE" or You are against it ?!

I think people are getting butthurt before start of the new league because the abyss league in my opinion was a failure.
Why is it a failure? because it was way too convoluted to tick the challenges.
FIRST, you need to open abyss in maps/zones and THEN you need to hope to open an abyssal dephts and FINALLY you need that abyssal depths to Spawn a LICH, and suddenly you realise that to get a nice experience in the league you need to get a 2 socketed abyssal drops of boots/gloves/helmet WHICH are FUCKING hard to drop.
I don't know how GGG programmed the RNG inside of the league but i bet it less than 1 in a Thousand abyss that triggers the events aforementioned! no wonder unids 2 socketed items for the challenges are selling for over 8ex now. So if i want to cosplay abyssal lich that don't suck i need to spend 20ex (lookup shroud prices)? fuck that

and what triggered me the most in abyss league was when they "patched" the game telling us that when abyss and secondary zones in maps or Elder-inflcuenced maps (haku/vagan/tora missions, uber trials etc) then you can't Spawn abyssal depths and vice-versa (if a map has abyssal dephts spawned then it cannot Spawn an uber trial eg) it fucked up the endgame grinding in so many levels that they knew if they reported it back in the beginning everyone would quit the league prematurely!

Now, looking at the new league it seems way better and less convoluted in these aspects (fuck secondary zones in maps), even if high tier sacrifices are made with very rare mob spawns at least is more feasible to grind, since the diminishing returns for these mobs to appear will be more "controllable" (please GGG don't rig the RNG)

Sorry about my language but i need to let it out and i am feeling much better now that i got the 36 challenges (made to 35 and sold all the items in one of my chars to buy a unid tombfist with 2 abyssal sockets)... i can't stand to get 40/40 this league since i like to solo challenges...4 pure grinding challenges and 2 of them are/were bugged? screw this
Let the Mewtwo grinding begins!

Lol some of these casuals actually smiling at ppl leaving the game and also wishing that vets would have a crappy time etc... and then they say that ppl who criticize are salty lol. These pokemon casuals are the saltiest of all.

Yeah, and they act like this will mess up non-crappy players "clear speed meta". Like being inefficient will ever be good.

The Shitters who say things like that and wants GGG to not even listen to anything that's not positive... they will still be running an "interesting" build and be poor, have terrible gear, never see all the content etc.

If that's fun to somebody then there's nothing wrong with that. They can be very obnoxious though, because they are often times the jealous type and want everybody else to be poor with crap builds like them.

Exactly man and then they pump in dough from mom's credit card and ask GGG to make everything as easy as possible lmao... and that's how games deteriorate.

extremely disappointing. good things: ancestry balance, elders orb (upgrades any map on the atlas to tier 16), and possibly a few good unique/faded uniques. except id wager you have to kill the uber elder to get the elder orb so i will be buying that fight in 820. the entire beast thing seems super annoying and i will wager most players dont do much at all of it beyond whats required for the top 2 or 3 things you can make with it (add map mod) etc and what needs to be done for the challenge. wasnt as big as i thought it was going to be. meh

EXTREMELY DOPE LEAGUE. Please stop crying for everything.

Congrats to GGG for this content update + League. Love it.

Call me Ash

Does anyone know how the new challenge rewards look like? Then I know if I have to make such a stress again ;D

It is no coincidence this update was timed for after the Monster Hunter release. Every developer and therefore game, is competing for one thing only:

Your available play time.

The more you play, the more likely you are to spend money to support their game (considering it's F2P). Also, the more new games enter the market they shift the playing field - not only from a competitive standpoint, but a consumer taste perspective, and therefore developers must react.

Edit: You also need to understand that developers are competing not just with games from within the genre (ie. ARPG) but ALL genres. It would be ignorant to say that just because PoE is an ARPG it isn't competing with PUBG because they are different games. While in some cases, people will only play one genre or the other, in most cases people choose between both genres to spend their time.

Pokemon Go took over the world for a brief period. It generated big money. It has proven to be successful over generations. Monster Hunter also has a history of being successful, and with it's newest game was going to take away available playing time from consumers.

PoE has launched a competitive attack to recapture some of this play time from the current market turbulence. This is their right. It is their company. While they do care about their community, they aren't going to watch their game fade away against the competition just to please a core group of players taste for what was PoE.

Oh but sir, without their core they are nothing! Think again. Is a core a static group of players, or realistically and ever changing demographic? I hope you think it's the latter.

You don't continually succeed in business by staying the same. You adapt and change or die.

The league is TEMPORARY anyways. However, I would suspect to see more of these types of competitive tactics in the future considering the AGE of PoE. The older it gets the harder it becomes to compete for players play time.

Time to grow up people.

So you're saying everyone who played PoE would have left for 1 other specific game like Monster Hunter if they didn't add Bestiary league rofl? I mean cmon man, i understand very well what you're saying, but you're overreaching a lot here. There's a million different games out there and PoE has been GROWING, not fading... with very PoE-ish leagues like breach/legacy etc. What's next... PoE with cars and planes lol?
