Communication and the Sacred Orb

I wonder whether the rest of your so-called improvement to defense will be something like:

10% chance for 3% life regeneration (previously 1% life regeneration).

5% chance to gain an endurance charge when hit.

1% chance to gain spell suppression when you take a savage hit.

...


I heard there is a new suffix mod on belts but very rare to get:


"50% more chance to get slaughtered if you didn't get slaughtered recently"

Popular?
Drop rate was -400% players after 1-2 weeks...
50k online to 6-10k...I think we have a different definition of popularity.


Not to mention the drop in trade in the 3.15 league, where people complained that they had a hard time selling an expensive item at a discount (they waited a few days for a buyer). And in the previous leagues, at a normal price, they dropped out in a few minutes.


no, it's obviously not a true
just check numbers
daily peaks' drop was even less than it was in Ritual (most popular league) and much less than it was in Delirium, Harvest, Haist, Metamorph

Dude, come on man you are the living proof that people will believe almost anything if they try hard enough. I'm not even going to try to educate you to basic math, 3.15 fell off a cliff at the start, after 1 week, after 2 weeks. After that the league was just scraps of folks who would play no matter what so of course player numbers leveled out after that.


the first month, daily peaks
I'm comparing a week to next week
do you see 400% drop?
do you see 6-8k online in the 2nd week on Ultimate league?

Harvest
126680
80865 -36,17%
55436 -31,45%
43182 -22,10%

Heist
122094
76128 -37,65%
55205 -27,48%
38055 -31,07%

Ritual
157103
124824 -20,55%
87620 -29,81%
61816 -29,45%

Ultimatum
155293
92312 -40,56%
60288 -34,69%

The idea of having this Sacred orb is bad, the idea of making it even rarer than exalted orb is even more bad.

I've never seen such skewed summation of statistics. 3.15 started off much, much lower than the recent leagues prior to it. It continued to decline thereafter. You are pointing towards % drops which is completely flawed. Would you say a league with 10 players at league start, and 5 players at league end was more successful than a league with 100k players at the start, and 45k at the end, because the latter had a higher percentile drop off? Its clear you are not proficient with numbers or analytics.

The % drops were relatively low for 3.15 because nobody played it from the start!

Yes you would, [Removed by Support]. Clearly 3.13 that had many times the players of 3.15 was more popular, [Removed by Support].

okay whatever, but i think its time to start moving away from completely random outcomes from currency orbs. especially considering this will be 3x as rare as an ex
My reaction to this and most of the changes is just: why, why spend resources on this? The character building in PoE is already in good shape compared to other games, and it's questionable that any of these changes are making things better (aside from repairing the damage done to ailment immunity in 3.15).

Meanwhile, the PvE gameplay is terrible and rare items haven't been worth picking up for years.
What's the point in them being so rare? How much extra defense does a high roll chest give compare to a low rolled one? I don't feel like the small amount amount of power they give justifies the rarity.

It's also hard to be excited about a perfect defense roll on an item unless the rest of the mods are good. And we know this will never happen because good items don't drop in PoE, they're all crafted.

Overall, I don't mind the sacred orbs or the defence variable but I don't think it will affect me much while playing but we'll see. I'm stoked about the other defence changes tho
PoE is a great game and GGG is an amazing transparent open minded company. This whining in the forums is seriously pathetic.

You really should experience other games and companies. You will not have a quality of this game in ANY way.

If you do not like it grind in D3 and get bored :D

It doesn't matter if you "clear up misunderstanding". Dumb idea is dumb. Yet another layer of RNG rather than just buffing bases. And we already got something that works EXACTLY like that. Quality.
Also how wonderful. Adding yet another orb that is almost not obtainable in ssf.
Why can't you just buff bases with flat 10%? So much simpler, better and faster without introducing yet another retarded layer of RNG. We got enough of that.
1. RNG base
2. RNG socket
3. RNG link
4. RNG color socket
5. RNG base item stat
6. RNG mods
7. RNG lvl of mods

Why tf add to this one more layer that will be almost impossible to change for normal player???

No Chris. This is not about misunderstanding. We understand this and I think that this idea is dumb.
True
