How long is Easter in New Zealand?

" Well it's like 4:30am in NZ right now. So maybe expect something in the 8-12 hour mark as far as a response. Tbh I am surprised we didn't get something on Monday (for them) given they said the patch would be out first half of this week. They basically will have 24 hours if they announce it today to make good on that claim. And I feel like doing these changes very quickly will lead to a lot of game breaking bugs and issues. Fingers crossed that's not the case. |

I sense the problem they are dealing with is the fact that once they start implementing great usable gear in abundance into the game, standard will become polluted with crazy good gear which will make the game great to the vision of a past time. Nerfing said items in new leagues will mean that standard play will be better for the simple fact that the items are not nerfed, ex. ingenuity. this is why most uniques and the majority of items are not godly! They are holding back on good gear with the drop rates so they dont have such over power in standard. I believe this is where the problem lies. they dont want to distort their own vision with past problems.

I know this I a bug, but the reply will be you need more light radius on your gear... GGG

" Do you wonder ?? With game addicting as POE, when you take that away, there is absolutely no wonder that players will go shitstorm crazy. The game loop and loot really fucks with a mind, so the people tend to get a bit more emotional about this, and normally people on net show how trash assholes they are, then these become assholes in withdrawal, which is even worse. Last patch was dangerously long ago. |

I’m honestly just really confused about the current situation. I get that Easter is a big deal in New Zealand, and I understand the labor laws make it hard to work during public holidays. I also get that POE2 is still in development and in early access.
But knowing the team would be away for nearly two weeks, how was there no plan in place to keep things running or at least communicate better during that time? It just feels like the game’s been left completely unattended. Meanwhile, we’ve got Last Epoch launching a new season, Diablo 4 dropping theirs, and a bunch of other games making moves. It’s a super competitive time, and I genuinely don’t understand how GGG is okay with letting major streamers and players walk away from POE2. And it’s not like POE2 is killing it right now either. Honestly, it feels like GGG is letting POE1 fade away while not fully committing to POE2 either — like they’re missing out on both. As someone who really loves POE, it’s just disappointing and kind of hard to watch. | |
" Id rather play standard with items that are great from the past than to play league with items that are more than likely nerfed. unless they go the d3 route and up the stat numbers of items for league rendering items usless in standard.They have a serious problem here and dont want to get in over their heads to fast. |

" Same imnjust waiting for them to make a post saving their own ass given the monumentous amount of feedback they've had on a specific issue...more feedback on any issue voiced since EA has began really. I never played D4 but I bought it over the weekend to try out in the new season. I didn't even want to do it but here we are. |
|
" Imagin a game where many many items that were implemented all at once were found out to be too good for the balance and the vision through the players finding and breaking the vision with said items, what would GGG do then? |

at this point I think the best thing GGG can do is come back, take the servers offline, buff all damage by 5-10% balance LS, fix armor and evasion to be more inline with ES and wipe everyone out. Just start a new league. Buff drops slightly, just need better quality gear and more currency and I don't mean literal quality of the trash gear. Can't expect us to craft when we see 1 Devine every 12ish hours of constant mapping. I do agree a yellow strong box should drop at least yellow gear. Ive opened to many that were empty. Lastly give everyone a way to be as fast as a deadeye on a rhoa.
Probably a very unpopular opinion but look at the market... the "season" is pretty shot trade wise and we are 3 weeks in and already need a HUGE meta shift when 80% of all build are now using LS. I do blame the holidays and not actually GGG, but it is what it is. Last edited by Leprkun#9949 on Apr 28, 2025, 1:04:42 PM
