Betrayal Statistics

Made me giggle a bit when you wrote that the spellcaster dominance was due to brands.. I din't really play a Statstick build, but people WERE bitching and saying THIS would happen, when you nerfed melee so heavily without doing anything to caster statsticks, or giving any buffs to melee.
Why would you assume that the melee unpopularity had anything to do with anything else, is beyond me.

Love too see stats!

But:

Time spent in hideout Hideout 30.52% what does this tell us.....
we need a better trading system.


I love everything in poe except trading.
pls think about a better trading system at least for maps.

thanks love u GGG!!!!!

"you have a better chance of finding a stack of Exalted Orbs than finding a Berserker in the Temple of Atzoatl." LUL,that's so brutal,bex!

Chop chop with the melee buffs, then. Time's a wasting.

67% time spend is gone for unfunny content?

It's nice to see that a lot of the content we've pitched as dangerous is, in fact, dangerous.

Dangerous? Trial of Burning Rage dangerous?

That shit isn't dangerous. You just have to stand there and wait. And wait. And wait.

It's not dangerous; it's annoying. You guys are annoying people to death. That's why so many people die there. They get pissed off at the annoying mechanic, and try to run through it. Ain't nothin to be proud of. Stop it.

We're out of stats now, so what have we learned? There's a pretty good chance that if you randomly select a character online, it is an Elementalist in their hideout, and you have a better chance of finding a stack of Exalted Orbs than finding a Berserker in the Temple of Atzoatl.

...Hold my beer!

So... the stats are sad. And they send a message that (I hope) GGG will be able to read. Don't be Blizzard, listen and try to understand the voice of community!

Ok, but what is so sad?
- time spend in HO (as mention by many before me: it is not about how nice HO are, it is about trading)
- spellcasters supremacy (it is not about brands, totems, etc... it is about nerfing down melee characters)

Interesting data - thanks for sharing. I'm still relatively new to PoE, and (apparently like many) my highest level Betrayal characters are arc and armageddon brand elementalists, followed by pathfinder and a guardian.

It looks like the latest patch made some welcome changes to fortification encounters, which is mostly what I encounter in maps. Admittedly, I often avoid them whenever I'm pushing, because the encounters can be impossible for me to complete. The big challenge for me is standing toe to toe with anything past the white maps feels like suicide.

Keep up the good work - still having fun.
