A Few Specific Balance Changes in 3.2.0

Again, I feel like the balance team goes about nerfs instead of addressing the real issues. The reason people used biscos in every build was because it made drops better. Because so many used it, the drop rates will feel mostly bad now. This will make farming not worth what it ever was. This turns me off.

Instead of addressing the issue of why so many used biscos (to boost drop rates) they just nerf it. Why not just boost global drop rates and remove all MF to compensate for it? Why should I start over again in a brand new league knowing the drop rates will never be as good as I'm used to? Is the only thing that's happening is a nerf to the drop rates with absolutely no compensation? The game can barely feel worth playing anyway when you have to farm 5-10 hours straight for a single exalted orb with full MF. Now the drop rates will be what 7-14 hours? You can work a full time job and make $70-200 in that time. Are you telling me a single exalted orb is worth that much of your time?

Again, nerfing sextants instead of fixing the issue that maps feel empty without them. It's not fun to have a feature everyone is so used to and loves and then just have it gone because the team never foresaw how powerful it would be. I'm 1500 hours in this game and have given hundreds of dollars to GGG. Yet again the patch notes seem to only make the game less fun and more unplayable to me. Might just lose me, we'll see.

I would much rather see the real issues addressed instead of just band-aid fixing them with nerfs. Boost overall drop rates and remove MF. Why even create MF and then punish people for using it? Also remove all the bad sextant mods and only keep those that add mobs. That way everyone wins. In my opinion, you shouldn't even have MF in the game as it pretty much forces you to go full MF to make more money. This makes the game less fun. However, I want the drop rates boosted or they simply don't feel as good. Don't just nerf things please. Fix the big issues and look at (why) these features are abused (Sextants,MF). Please don't make the game feel worse for us experienced people with no compensation. Otherwise we have no real reason to play another league.

Saying Bisco's is overpowered is the same thing as admitting your RNG is fucked. I've played around a couple of thousand hours and have seen exactly 2 exalts drop. So I sold just about everything I owned that was worth a crap to finally be able to get an item which would change my fortunes..... and the nerf announcement happens a week later. Why do you think people can charge so much for a bisco's? Because the demand is incredibly high because everyone is so frustrated at the horrible drops that they'll pay through the nose.

Its funny that in another post people are calling 70ex in a league being a trash player.

Ive gotten 6 in one league and in other leagues gotten none.

There is a huge disparity in experiences
