Game Balance in Path of Exile: Expedition

Only like 0.01% of people are using Smoke mine in end game and you nerf it to the ground. Where's logic?

Content was becoming more and more challenging and players were given more powerful items to keep up like awakened gems. Now it all is beinged taken back without adding more sources of power into the game.

3.14 felt like the league should last at least 6 months w/o 3.13's harvest and atlas regions nodes. 3.15 already feels like this kind of changes should not be applied to a 3 month long realm.

Why rude?
Just tell you, when you like challenge and harder game ... yoz can go play HC/SSFHC. Or you are scared for 30+ challenges? Common. You want challenge, so lets go play SSFHC :) As you say, you kill every league end game content. Its nothing personal. I play only HC and thats why i leave this shit balanced game for defensive nerfs w/o balance oneshot shitfest + bugs in game and bad server perfomance. And when Dark Souls game have better craft system then PoE.

So when you play trade SC shit with copy build, you cant know how this game looks on HC bro ;) [/quote]

You're liking the challenge? You haven't done the 80+ hardcore character, or uberlab there, and telling about one? Well, someone is clearly a liar here, like it or not. Harder game ain't meant to be punishing for everything, and artificially slowing down the game, without any profits in loot, even when you're running the mf build, yeah, right.
Seem's like i've typed to the wrong guy, few pages ago he was also talking about challenges etc, so sorry for mistyped here, yet all almost all those who claim things about the challenge ain't done any hardcore characters.

So what it seems like is that to reach the same level of power will require far more play time. And I already have insufficient play time to even unlock endgame content.

I have to say GGG, I’m not very motivated to play this next league. Playing PoE has an opportunity cost for me, I’m not someone who will play a game regardless because I have nothing else to do with my time.

I’ve played since open beta on and off, and I do prefer a slower pace so I play at a slower pace… now do I need to play faster more powerful builds to get through the game? That seems to be the opposite of what you want…

Thanks for not destroying traps. Couldn't roll a trapper on ultimatum due to time constraints but will do so on expedition.

GL everyone!

Well, this is the first time I can not find a single exciting thing in the manifesto.

Slow pace is ok, but you just slowed down player action speed, nothing done to atlas, monster, bosses, drops...

"Buffs" are nothing to get people playing this League.

I'll probably stick to something else this time

Thank you GGG for the nerfs
Harder game is better game ;)
This season was really too easy...

The old flask system was the reason why I haven't played the game for a long time. Thank you ggg :)

Why do people assume that when a skill is nerfed means you can't play it. I am still going to use everything like normal. Melee physical damage or archmage are still in the game why are people acting like nerfing means can't play it. Just enjoy the game and try and make a strong build with what they give you, that's the challenge and fun aspect of poe.

I hate that mentality people have of nerfing something means not playing it like its gone from the game.

They changed enduring mana flask affix, so archmage might truly be in a bad spot. Also, they should think about cumulative mob damage vs burst damage, because if you can still be popped out of nowhere right now, before balance patch, you will be popping like a popcorn post patch.
