Legacy of Phrecia Endgame Specialisation System

lack of release date? not that people will flock to this unless its an actual new league.

If you were to restore the Atlas tree and reduce the amount of idols we can have, could we meet in the middle here? Maybe just enough to let us stack with a few notables on the tree.

Even after sleeping, I still don't understand what you guys are thinking with this. The atlas passive tree is one of the best things you have ever added to the game. Completely removing it in favour of an rng-fest is one of the most hare-brained things you guys have come up with.

We already have less than 2 days (real time, not 'play time') to try out each ascendancy if we wanted to try them all, now you're adding an extra layer of bs to slow down progression even more, which will only really benefit those who are able to make insane currency very early to buy all the best relics before their price rises to their true value.

And I actually like Sanctum and relics. I like the idea of Sanctified Relics. But this? Nah. This ain't it.

To everyone whining about this one-month design experiment league, I have some words:

bruh

What do you think PoE1 has been for the past several years? Ideas flow freely between the two games. PoE2 started life as Poe1 v4.0. A lot of the QoL and balance work of the last few leagues were directly influenced, if not lifted in some cases, from PoE2.

The atlas tree did not exist for nearly a decade. The atlas system has changed radically several times over the years. It's normal for them to experiment with it, and over the lifespan of the game it's normal to see things completely go away. Get over it.

Settlers is the longest league on record. No, "Necro-Settlers" is not a new league, it does not count. The only reason we're getting this event AT ALL is because people are fed up with GGG putting PoE1 on life support to focus on PoE2. Saying "lol just don't play it then" completely misses the point of why this event is even happening in the first place.

And people are rightfully calling this out as an objective downgrade in player agency.

I absolutely disagree with the people saying the atlas tree is good. I've been wanting it gone for years. Having to respec your tree is just quitting time. That and the fact we have to use the tree i. The first place means we're missing out in the first place.

We never needed the tree before we had it.

We absolutely did need it. The layers upon layers of RNG in order to actually do the content you wanted to focus on before the atlas tree is what caused me to quit the game in the past, because it felt like the game didn't respect your time at all.

We have too many league mechanics competing for limited slots in our maps. GGG cannot and will not increase the spawn rate of mechanics to a state where it's viable to target farm a mechanic of your choice without having something like the atlas passive tree to tip the odds in favour of those mechanics spawning, because maps literally are not large enough to fit everything.

Also, "having to respec your tree is just quitting time":
We literally get two free complete respecs. It's called Tree 2 and Tree 3.

DO NOT MAKE THIS PERMANENT IN POE1 - the Atlas passive tree is one of the BEST features!!!

Thank you

While I am excited to play with this system, testing a new thing on PoE 1 players when they have been desperate for new content is really shitty.

Many people seems to hate the new Idol system over the atlas tree...

I, myself, love it! The only thing I hate about it is that this will be a 1 month league so idk how grinding these idols will feel over a short time, would have prefered more time :P

I like the concept in Sanctum and also in Heist with the trinket. Looking forward to this league!

Ah this post killed my entire excitement for this event. Atlas is the best thing about PoE1 and it's getting turned into a slot machine. Just like the entirety of PoE2

I just want to be loved.
(Good update tho)

scrap this idol idea. keep those new ascendancy idea. fix your claim "people hate to respec atlas" by just adding more tree load outs. make it 8 instead of 3.
BOOM ! DONE ! LESS RESOURCES WASTED ! PLAYER HAPPY !

This is a reminder to everyone that you can, and should vote with your time (and money for supporter packs). If you like the league, then great, play the game and have fun! If you do not, that is okay too! Go play or do something else. It is okay to step away from a game (or company) if you are not having fun with it or do not like the direction they are heading in.

I am certain GGG does look at the metrics of play time and player count throughout the league. It would be outrageous if they did not. If they see player count and average play time is lower, then they know the changes they implemented do not work and they should understand what needs to be reworked, fixed, or undone. So if you are upset or do not think the league looks fun, then do not play it and GGG will notice.

That all being said, it is still okay to be upset and to let your voice be heard. I agree with people who are saying that it is unfair that POE 1 is acting more as a testing ground for POE 2 rather than being a standalone game, but it is not an excuse to be rude or to spew hate.
