primitive tactics. so that people switch to other build/class and waste time/mats on other gear. because it will be ruined later.
With this tactic you hardly need any content. because people are somehow busy too.

I enjoyed playing RF in 2019. but now? no way...

and exactly that doesn't make me hot. because I don't think much of these embarrassing artificial resets either.

Almost everyone in their company works at POE2. and only about 2 employees have been developing “content” for many months or years? There was a post in the steam forum. I got this information from there.

Sorry if I am not shedding tears for the death of a walking simulator build. If you want to just use one hand and watch TV while mapping you can always make an autobomber.

someone didn't play how i think they should play so lets nerf the skill. I don't like Poison skills maybe i should get them to nerf that to the ground.

I have never played RF because in my opinion to reach a certain level it requires a huge investment but I have always been fascinated I have always liked the concept of the build, I tell you guys it is not nice to see this change, but you guys speak without knowing the new types of gems, right now you don't have the necessary information to express an accurate judgement, the initial build is important but the build like all develops in the end, greetings and have fun with the new league, have faith in GGG love all <3

I think that we have wait for the transfigured gem versions to see if they really killed RF.

Doesnt matter if it was "only 2 ascendencies". Everyone and their mother was playing RF for past 2 years.

You are wrong. Heatshiver was heavily nerfed, which gutted other meta league starters.
RF got Seismic Trap treatment. Well deserved.

heatsiver is everyone? theres still 10 other meta builds wich wasnt touched

Deadeye players say "Look here, Heathsiver got nerfed, uhh and those rage gloves, we got nerfed uhhh." And then they turn around and smile, because they got away with murder.

I am on board with RF change to make meta game more diverse, but deadeye/LA/TS should have gotten the same treatment. Kind of unfair. Although it is not as bad right now to be fair, 17% TS Deadeye on poe ninja. Could be worse. Was way worse in the past with other builds.

It was pretty doom and gloom when it switched away from life/es based damage a few years ago as well.

I think RF is one the few skills where it will always find a way.
