Simulacrum overtuned

430+ hours into the game and can't even complete 1 simulacrum with one of the most broken builds in the game (invoker). This mechanic should be fixed

Agreed, it's absolute trash.

Before the "skill issue" idiots arrive, let me clarify that I've cleared T4 of EVERYTHING ELSE in the game. Still can't clear a single simulacrum.
simulacrum needs a massive nerf, i'm doing all T4 bosses but arbiter (i just refuse to invest in it, i find selling fragments more rewarding atm), 10 boss points with ease (citadels also), trials on farm, but the rng and some rooms layouts in simulacrum are so bad that it's a mess (on T1)
herald of ice doesn't work there (seriously?)

the mobs themselves are actually easy to kill and not so tanky, the main problem are the room layouts, they have to be bigger, expecially the tiny tiny one which is a 5 meters corridors.....

and, with a character with 75% evasion,50% armor and 3k HP i shouldn't get one shot from the boss when i'm not actually able to spot him when he spawns, this is just bs
The only problem with Simulacrum - is its really BAD design.

Too many spawns on a small spot. during last few waves youre simply getting hoarded without a chance to escape anywhere.

So id suggest - increase area Size and/or reduce number of spawns. Otherwise its just stupid, you kill Arbiter 1 shot, but cant kill Trash in Simulacrum.

I agree, two times failed level 1 simulacrum and I'm not going back before changes.
Also would love to see statistics how much point people unlocked for every map atlas tree.
Farming max diff simulacrum with magma barrier, not that hard. Atleast one thing where mace skill is decent.

Impressive that you can kill bosses on howa gemling, truly.
Too bad simulacrum is too overtuned, so you have to press more than 1 button.
And it's only one portal, lol.

I'm not playing gemling, I'm playing witch hunter which is arguably one of the worst ascendancies in EA.
it was the hardest content on poe 1 and i hope it stays the same

like there is 5 or less builds that can actually complete
d:-D*
