Remember ia ea

That exactly why people are toxic. They dont understand how during EA balancing things that are working (maybe OP but working) and not breaking servers physically is a higher priority above fixing major things that dont work at all, like whole defence layer or two ascendancies (and its only I know about). And especially toxic are people who play something that works in these ascendancies and it went down by GGG for the sake of what? Fairness? Race? Who cares about it in EA? Its stupide.

That exactly why people are toxic. They dont understand why EA has been released with intentionally bugged things. Cuz when u release EA, u release working build with some thing turned off (with placeholders like skills or with some notifications "hey this notable doesnt work now be aware"). And if something doesnt work unintentionally, like leech, it should be the first priority to fix, not do balance. Cuz when u release EA, u release working build > u fix major things that dont work > u do balance after > u add a new build > u fix major things that dont work > u do balance after etc. They do balance right away when half of the game is not working, that shouldnt be priority.

Yeah about "balancing"

0.1.0c Hotfix 2
Demon form now has a minimum of 1 life lost per second, per stack.

so... rip, w/o weapons (shield in particular) it was only build that worked on t8+ maps with DF using low maxlife and stacking 100+ stack, now w/o weapons and hard fire damage mitigation for PP (cuz u have to use PP but u cant cuz u cant use shield) whole archetypes just dead and only minions left. And for the sake of what? So its so out of touch that they nerfed ascendance that doesnt even work properly. And dont forget, its not POE1, chaos damage does x2 and bleed/poison bypass ES, so playing on min maxlife is already scary.

10stacks build just doesnt have enough damage cuz again ignite is tremendously underturned and only good source of it is flameblast and u lose your face while casting it everytime especial w/o wearing a shield that doesnt work in DF.

Actually i dont understand why comet still alive. Should nerf it to kill all cast on* builds for witch and only minions will left. At least these notables in ascendancy work.

I thought that EA/beta test is a thing during which we should test game for you GGG. How people have to beta test your endgame if you killing/not fixing whole archetypes, and i dont even want to start talking about respec cost in EA... You know that changes will happened, why limit players to test your game?

I want to play this so bad.
No money =))

Why do we never see skills in an unacceptable balance state because they're too damn weak and GGG buffs them?

currently many PS5 users can't enter their hideout so annoying it's a big downside because the map device in the town works like 50% of the time it deletes your whole map

THIS! ALL OF THIS!!! O.o

To also add to this....
The first 30-40 points should cost 0 to respec as well. This allows fresh players to get in and try different things without forcing them to farm gold to "respec" and try new things before they decide on a spec/playstyle.
