league is sub-par.
trans gems sounded exciting on paper, but are below mid. difficulty<>reward is a joke
GGG became marketing geniuses, the trailer, 100 "reworked gems". 3 "new" ascendancies 3 days in and it's the same story as always, mobs that are on par with uber pinnacle bosses (if juiced), you fight them for minutes and they drop a fragment transmute/scroll. Tgems are whatever, "quite ambitious league" they said. ambitious in writing all the suffix texts for each gem maybe and inventing new gem names. Feels like 3.22 without any new exciting value added, promised, marketed, but not delivered. yet again. Last bumped on Dec 15, 2023, 5:26:53 AM

The rucksack is col despite being 5 years late. Always wanted this in D2 to hold charms. But yes, Tgems are so …unnecessary. All of 3.23 skill and enchant changes are so unnecessary. This league feels like nothing more than a massive shakeup that does little to improve gameplay experience. But hey, we’re all testing for the future…and the future of Poe is in good hands. /s

No, they are not "marketing geniuses" because everything they said is true. They gave us over 100 new skill gems and jus because to you they are meh and you dont like them, it means nothing.
For many people like me, who play multiple builds per league and constantly look for something new to play, I want to play at least 50 gems from them so I have buils to play for next 5-10 leagues (if they wont nerf/change them). | |
Yea league isn't fun

Pretty much horrible as far.
random, cant find a king in 4 days. darkness with bad coloring to quit or go play standard is on the menu vs oh this is fun mechanics (not) Last edited by skjutengris on Dec 12, 2023, 9:08:28 AM

" 4 days and didnt find King. Such tragedy. In Abyss league there were peopel who didnt see single Lich in 3 months. Same with Aul and Delve league. | |
In terms of drops, well, I haven't dropped shit yet, but the gameplay is 10/10, so I'm really enjoying the league.
Just Ultimatum feels like a circular waste of time, because shit's deadly, and one catalyst ain't it when it comes to rewards for a stage 7... Last edited by Xyel on Dec 12, 2023, 9:38:08 AM

I like it so far, although I'm a little confused about what/where I'm going with the league mechanic. I have no clear focus or story to drive me. I am having fun with the new Skelly-mage gem that I found in my second lab. It's working well with my elemental SRS build.

I'm loving earthquake of amplification so far. That skill alone has 10x'd my dps for my favorite build since last leauge even with the heatshiver nerf.
