3.24.1 Hotfix

Yeah, all of these issues with the game, and the way GGG caries themselves nowadays.
It is NOT looking good for PoE2. I'm afraid with how overall how low quality PoE1 has become, PoE2 is gonna be worse x100.
Hope it is not the case, but it probably will be. Sad times from what used to be such a great game and company. Damn o7

devoted modifiers still have modifier " spirits on death" and basics dont block it, caz in program code its called "necropolis". Developers put extra content in new league mechanic and basics dont block necropolis and all his content. They just specially nerf farm.

Nerveopolis league. Start weakly and then decrease strongly ...

And still this nagging goblin sound in every town. I play since weeks with sound off. Proof that one bad sound fx can ruin a whole game. Sheesh ...

The fact you can't hide them/mute them or ANY MTX for that matter, also with not being able to load into the game with your H/O.

They really are shoving micro transactions down your throat. Disgusting tactics. Never expected GGG to be THIS greedy.

There is no endgame in this league (or rather, as soon as players find it, nerfs come out), there is no variety of builds: if you want to beat bosses - ONLY Hexblast, if you want to beat maps (why???) - Deadeye LA/EH and... that's all. Thank you for your "vision" and the final degradation of the game, keep it up.

There is more Endgame as ever before. T17 Maps are a hard challenge for most and provide enough difficulty to make pretty much anyone struggle for it.
The gab between newbies and pros just got far wider with T17 maps, cause pros still can handle them and farm endgame bosses while most will just avoid farming T17 if even doing them, since you either need a fully respecced Atlas Tree to compete with the difficulty and the mods on it or a really good build.
The Statement that T17 maps are the stepping stone between uber and normal bosses was just simply wrong. T17 maps are in most cases more difficult as uber bosses.

ONLY Hexblast, if you want to beat maps (why???)

That's BS^2. There are plenty of builds if you not only just follow streamer builds and need THE META build.
We got:
- Archmage Ice nova
- Splitting Steel Champion
- EA Champion
- RF
- Exsanguinate Miner
- Pretty much any Pathfinder
- Near to any Trapper/Miner/Totemic
- DD Necro
- Arc/Spark Inquis
- Frostblade Trickster
- LS and Reap Champions

Just to name a few...

So are you just trolling or really crying about that? Do you really have no clue of the game or how you got to such a statement?

Remember:

"In 2018, Tencent became a majority holder in GGG, acquiring 86.67% of the company's shares. Three of the co-founders hold the remaining 13.3. Two of the co-founders also sit on the board of directors, alongside 3 appointed by Tencent in April 2018."

Guess who is greedy and how come the game is becoming a joke.

Doesn't seem like they even play their own game nor test leagues before launching them since they have to do so much culling of their own content to "fix exploits". What a joke at this point.

This was never the case? Since the Beta any League had dozen of exploits the Developers didn't fix before League start and which got abused by all the different players. The only difference this league is that they mid league nerf them.

People complained since 2013 "DO they not beta test their leagues", "They not play their own game anymore"... They do, but they cannot think of anything and any way to exploit what they implement, it was never before possible and it will keep being like that, no matter how often you guys complain about it.

And yet you take no action against hte streamers who abused this. I don't care if Ben is the best PoE player. People have abused the crap out of these exploits. I know they are exploits because if they were intended mechanics, you wouldn't patch them. But you take no action. You allow the economy to be destroyed and specific players to get extremely rich of exploits. This league is so much worse than Affliction, and people used maphacks there.

There's some good meaning in these statements.
If they're patched as a hotfix, then they're bugs.
If they're bugs, they can be exploited.
If they're exploited, it should be a bannable offense.

So GGG should have 2 options
1. Do nothing so everyone has the same playing field
2. Hotfix the bug but also punish those who exploit it. It could be as simple as a ban, character deletion or character reroll, or maybe even account reroll.

The worst thing would be to do what has been done. A hotfix and no punishment. I believe this is what people are the most bothered about, which is, the unfairness.

And as a side note, the influx of uniques into the economy thanks to these interactions has probably benefitted casual players in some ways - when was the last time other than the past two leagues were you could get a Headhunter for 20-25d?

Good question indeed. When was the last time farming nurse or doctors was so worthless? Cause that's one of the things I enjoy doing, but it has been rendered pointless.

I dunno if this is one big test for poe2 but it’s f***** up. You have the no lifers find good strats, make tons of currency and nerf it before most other players even know about it or can attempt it. I work full time but still play Poe as much as I can but I just don’t have time to take advantage of even one good strat just to build up a little currency before you nuke it. I think you have forgotten how much time, effort and currency has to go into a build to make it viable to run the league at full potential and so the insanely hard t17s which were suppose to be a bridge between reg pinnacle bosses and Ubers. The maps are much harder than Ubers are. I use to have fun researching and creating a build and slowly building it up stronger and stronger but lately you seem to want to strip anything halfway decent away. This game and league has SO MUCH potential but ggg you just can’t get your s*** together. You would think with such low retention you would switch things up but instead you continue to nerf nerf nerf. It’s a sick joke or research for poe2 which is not fair to your loyal players who have been with you for years… fyi currency drops are terrible that’s why this league you are either rich or broke broke. No middle ground
