Synthesis Flashback Event

Meh tbh... I mean it's better than nothing to try to repair all the damage that this garbo league has done (that's why there is an event in the first place this time), but yeah i dunno. 3 week event with the lighter mods cos we're scared about std lul's economy? Prolly will lvl to 35 for the free box and then bugger off.

Standard economy? More like console hardrive. It would melt with events we had in the past (before they made console version of PoE)

Can you do it without synthesis perhaps? :)

The event will include rotating mods from 11 popular past Path of Exile leagues.

3 x Tormented Spirits

Is tormented spirit a really popular mechanics to include it each time?

"

2 x additional Perandus Chests and a 33% chance to spawn Cadiro

In one hand, we have inadequate challenge "5000 perandus coin deal" which is nearly incompletable without trading for "services". In other hand, we have possibility to easily complete this challenge in the upcoming flashback event - we only need to join it and play for a while. Feels like scam.

PS: what i'm trying to say - we are begging for fossil+resonators stash tab for more than half of a year (and we aren't asking to get it for free - we ok to buy it), but instead you are releasing this generic "event". What are you doing?

We will never get Mayhem again because of consoles. Consoles simply cant handle it.

"Console wont affect PC version at all" my ass.

This is false, or more accurately the part about you not getting Mayhem again because of consoles is false. I agree that consoles probably couldn't handle it as I'm already in fear that consoles will struggle with *this*.

Console being able to participate was far from guaranteed. GGG had the idea of doing this event, and only then decided to investigate the possibility consoles could participate. All signs suggested they would be able to, so here we are.

There's no evidence to suggest GGG altered their plans in any way specifically to allow consoles to participate. They could at any time decide to do a thing on PC which wouldn't be possible on console: just because this isn't one doesn't

You realize that if they would make event for PC version only it would start another wave of rage?

Wave of rage?

We never *asked* for this. In fact I bet very few console players will stick around on the mode because of how buggy/laggy it's sure to be.

The game on console is in a terrible state. Much of the community has left already, and the ones who're still around are mostly just wanting GGG to release the patch which stops the crashing and hopefully enables dynamic resolution help with the framerate.

Most builds, and maps above a certain tier are literally unplayable. We can't enjoy the game like this. As far as console is concerned, fixing those issues should be a top priority before we all give up and leave.

We *were* getting regular updates and patches. The most recent one was almost two weeks ago which is the longest time we've gone between patches, which coincides with this event going into development.

So not only will this event be an utterly unplayable mess which almost everyone will abandon for their own sanity, it's possibly coming at the expense of patch development; if it wasn't for this "thing" we might be playing a version of the game that works for longer than 2 hours at a time.

So what you might start to see, if anything, is a wave of rage that patch development got put on the backburner meaning we'll probably still have these issues when 3.7 arrives meaning we won't be able to fully enjoy that either... just because hardly most of the PC players quit Synthesis early. Synthesis was a roaring success on PS4 when you discount the bugs, so it's not us who went AWOL and made this happen.

is it possible to complete synthesis challenges such as buying stuff from cadiro in the flashback event?

You could add some new mod(s) this time, why repeat? Please, GGG, move forward, don't step on same place!
- Every x kills, bunch of corpses appears and detonate toward you with fire/cold/lightning damage (can be arc-like spell aswell)
- Every Hit increases rarity/quantity of dropped loot if that player makes lasthit (limited by x, that's for slower builds)
- Randomly attacked by crazy animated weapons
- Mobs for 1 second can get ci, gluttony of elements or immortal call
- Rarity/quantity increases if you didn't kill recently, limited by x
- Last ability you used supported by random support gem on next use (except blood magic i guess)
- You get loot from map after killing Boss
That's only few mods that i made withing few minutes. Such events could be so more fun if you added new mods in it!

See you all in the flashbacks, exiles!

yes! I love these

So you just rebooted synthesis with 2 Zanamods active. What a huge freaking letdown.

Fun isn't allowed anymore.

awesome news , ty ggg
