0.1.0b Patch Notes (restartless)

I've been using Gas Grenade with Explosive Shot among other things now i look here and it got a mega nerf because of an interaction i knew nothing about, great.

This is outrageous first nerving to further make the game more tedious and more boring and not solving the game's flaws. Progression is so slow and grindy, loot almost nonexistent. Why would I bother to play further?


Going back to POE1. Thank you.

Yeah, gas arrow explosion was severely overtuned. Thing is, I managed to level enough to use poisons instead of this so the nerf didn't affect me. I never saw it. On my end, the thing was good even with 0% fire damage increase. I discovered it myself while fooling aroundband trying a failproof way to ignite fast, but I guess I wasn't the only one to use gas arrow / firewall. XD

I would still consider it decent once properly specced for it and with proper gear... which is hard to get.

Still, there’s going to be many skills nerfs/buffs in the coming months. I hope they buff the underwhelming skills instead...

Idk, you guys just bad at properly balancing stuff.

Why nerfing skill itself that is fine, instead of nerfing actual abusive interaction? Now actions of few people caused GGG to nerf skill to everyone that didn't abuse this.

Wow very nice completly flatten my character over night..

Respec? would take about 20k gold by now, I am at 4k at act3 (yes i dared to spend some).

How about i respond by nerfing my spendings on your game GGG.
You played yourself, again.

Any drop buff? Ruthless have more drop than this thing. ARPG must be about loot and gearing not about soul like bosses and nerfing better than worst skills.

Nobody cares about the nerf. It's the fundamental philosophy that's the problem.

But yeah, stick to your guns for that 3% player retention rate after they finish the campaign one time, D4 Style!

What are you talking about? Fundamental philosophy being the problem? You say that without details? Alright then, at least I'm sure ledditors will be ecstatic at parroting your point.

OK let's talk about it.

They nerfed the skill instead of fixing the interaction.

they said it's temporaly, they don't have properly solution for now

This nerf completely destroyed my build.

Why don't you nerf the interaction instead of the skill? That's so ridiculously dumb.

I'm close to the end of act 3, can't possibly reroll my whole tree, might as well delete the character now.

I'm playing a deadeye detonating my own gas clouds, I feel it's pretty fucking niche because my ways to actually detonate are not exactly clear, I even got a unique quiver for it, but nah, just nerf every single thing that stands out a bit to the ground, you are going to be fighting a boss for 5 minutes, and you are going to enjoy it, play lightning spam like literally every single ranger out there.

Good luck with this damn philosophy, I'm back to POE 1 where I can actually make fun builds.

pc shutting down after some minutes of play after the patch.

Best of luck with that, and the POE1 bug with the map device kicking you out to login when you try to enter maps.
