0.1.0b Patch Notes (restartless)
Do you guys still have anything left in your brains, or has Diablo completely shut off your ability to think? POE2 is not POE1. POE2 is more souls-like than Diablo IV-like, and it’s pretty obvious that it shouldn’t be possible to kill a boss in 30 or 10 seconds. I’m playing a sorcerer with my own build, and it took me over 1.5 hours to beat the Act 1 boss—of course, because I died a lot, but also because I don’t have high damage. This game isn’t about having massive DPS. When will you understand that POE2 is leaning more towards a souls-like experience, and there won’t be overpowered skills letting you destroy a boss in under a minute? If that’s how you want to play, go to Diablo or POE1, because POE2 isn’t and won’t be that kind of game.

" You are completely missing the point or being intentionally annoying. Jonathon said they wouldn't be rolling out nerfs early on and bringing other things up to be inline with more powerful skills. Gas Grenade was far being in the ballpark of OP. Meanwhile multiplayer parties are still broken, crafting still bugs out for people (like myself) where it just says "operation not valid" on anything, loot is still a shambles, melee is a complete meme if you don't use one of the ranged skills, Ultimatum scaling is hilariously bad, do I need to continue? Their priorities are super questionable right now. I hope that when the world comes to an end I can breathe a sigh of relief; because there will be so much to look forward to.

Thank you GGG.
Please do not make the game easier. Please do not change the crafting system. The game is in a VERY good state right now. |

" I was playing what made most sense to me, and to many other players. Ranger's Salvo Skill already got nerfed yesterday. I am now looking to have to respec - farming gold in empty maps that have 6 portals but close on death is no fun with a build that got gutted. This is a 60% nerf to Gas Arrow. Everyone keeps saying "its early access" or [enter phrase to drive players away from the videogame]. Yes, this is early access, but it has been playtested without the nerfs. At least remove the gold cost so players can actually playtest, if this is a playtest disguised as early access. As a solo player the game turned from fun to not playing at all. |

" > Gas Grenade was far being in the ballpark of OP. You haven't researched this claim, otherwise you would NOT have come to this conclusion. It melted bosses in 2-5 seconds. Do you want D4? Buff everything so it's just as broken as the broken thing? Get tf out of here. I play melee btw. Melee is SUPER fine right now. You just don't know what the heck you're talking about. > loot is still a shambles why don't i have full 6 mod rare items by act 3 gegegeeee wtf >:( I'm more than happy with my mostly blue items (that have two GOOD and HIGH-rolled mods, each).

Guys, chill, it's early access, it's a new game, you have no clue how to play it yet.
With halfway decent gear on my Sorc I'm nuking bosses in 10-30 seconds in Act 1 Cruel. Go and buy stuff from vendors (you can even filter with the box at the bottom), go and trade, craft items and try out skill combinations. Things will get nerfed, early game is tough (but it is in most aRPGs) and mid-game you're already flying through the maps. Grab some 10-20% movement speed boots from the vendor too when you're at it. | |
" Sorry to break it to you but unfortunately spells are undertuned by a very big margin , all of them. i've beat the final boss of act 1 in under 10 seconds as a monk. hitless at that. with just a random yellow quarterstaff i've picked up from the shop rest of the gear is blue garbage. Not only does the monk deal an absurd amount of damage but it can also stagger the bosses effortlessly , the final boss of act 1 was perma staggered. So either the monk is way overtuned (altho it feels really nice) Or spells are way way way undertuned to a point of struggling and being unfun to play (first character was blood mage essense drain with hexblast i got to cruel with it.) |

Instead of getting buffed for a lot of useless skills we got a nerf for the useful ones.
I suppose is easier to nerf something than buffing something else. |
