Nice patch, but "Cast on status" nerf was done too hastily, actually, it's not a "nerf", it's a "delete".

I'm not impacted, but i wanted to try it to see how it work, and... Hmmm, that's just plain useless right now, "cast on status" is in the same status as if you deleted it.

You should modify it again to make it at least playable, it really seem unfair for all the peoples who put hours and hours of cooking and theorycrafting to just dump it down the drain like that, maybe start by reducting initial effectiveness by 25% would have be more balance ?

I dont know how it looked before, but it feel like it has been nerfed by like 99.99% right now seeing how unplayable that is, i cant even think peoples played that before when i'm seeing the actual state of these gems lol

Nope. The fact that it should have worked differently than just spam 10 comets a second doesn't mean it was nerfed harshly. You can still do stuff with that. Just need a different approach.

I mean you obv show it to our face w/ ur badges, that ur balls deep in.

What are the badges for? Im new

I'm too poor to respec and now my build is complete and total garbage I am very sad

Went to bed with a finally working build, not op not oneshotting bosses or being immortal or anything, just having fun thinking "You know what the game actually is kinda fun when your builds works"

And then i woke up back to boring slow walking over way to big maps taking ages to kill white trash.

Guess i'm uninstalling and not buying anything for the forseeable future. thanks GGG

Just discribing my expirience with COI gem: I am playing fire minion build and used this gem to automate Detonate dead. It was working very well on maps, but now, when energy gain depends on how strong ignite is, it isnt working at all. What was the point to put ignite on minions by default then anyway? It isnt doing any damage, because minion hits are too small, and now I cant even utilize it with COI? Cast on X setups definetly needed some changes, but the way you did it not only destroyed some dedicated builds, but also unnesesery hurt many other ones

I'm done with this game for a while. The promises made gave me hope, but they've been broken almost immediately. To be clear, I wasn't affected directly. I'm only in Act 2 Normal, and haven't gotten to the point that I could try one of these builds.

The way I WAS affected is I now have concerns about choosing ANY build. I'm a working adult and don't have time to experiment much, so I turn to what build guides are available online. Those are the ones most likely to get hit with a nerf like this.

So I find myself in a situation where every road I'm looking down has risk of wasting dozens of hours of my time.

Respec would help, but that wouldn't alleviate gearing/gem leveling. If this nerf had been more subtle, with people still being able to play at a level to at least grind out gold to respec, I think I could have been more accepting, too. But you may as well have removed these trigger gems from the game.

I'll be back to buy some cosmetics when (if?) you've learned to respect players' time.

GGG save your playerbase by doing the POE 1 thing and saving these nerfs for post New Year.

Where is the problem, as long as u have enough characters slots, starting a new one is absolutely free.

It's time. Some people have lives outside of the game.

Could respeccing be cheaper? Sure. BUT
Respeccing is as expensive as it is because of ppl abusing mechanics. So perhaps you should think about ur own behaviour before blaming other ppl?

LMAO What own behavior? What have people done wrong? They are not exploiting, not cheating, they just went a build, good chunk of them not being even aware of the meta and suddenly they are left with a broken to because GGG CLAIMED ITS EARLY ACCESS AND THERE WILL BE CHANGES AND THEY PROMISED FREE RESPEC, if they didn't intend the implication of offensive CoF cause it's EARLY RELEASE and they are still finetuning it's on devs, not players, players should not be punished in scenario like that.

Happy holidays!

Good changes, keep them coming.

One thing tho, you really should let people respec for free for the duration of Early Access. Every patch will brick people's characters and force them to relevel every time if they don't have sufficient gold available to fully respec.

Me and my friend literally spent all day yesterday switching me from lighting to freeze. I just got the build put together after a FULL passive respec and all of act 3 selling gear. I used all my currency to build gear. It felt really good and we were having a lot of fun. Then this morning that toon is bricked. I don't have enough gold to respec. I can kill anything in act 4 to get more gold. That would be fine if I had any other DPS delivery.
