Path of Exile 0.11.0

Fantastic features, looking forward to DL this patch!

And a lot of thanks for your constant hard work and your direct communication with the community. Your patch strategy seems extremely good planed, I suppose it´s a product of your great concept behind this game!

Keep it up!

I just don't like these items that can only come from the new leagues...

This isn't a nerf or a buff to Kaom's.

Let's say your base HP without Kaom's is 1600, and with Kaom's it's 2500.

Tossing a number here, let's say life nodes get halved (4% instead of 8% etc). So you get +150% life instead of +300% life after the change.

1600*(1+3)=6400
2500*(1+3)=10000

In this case Kaom's gives you 56% more HP

1600*(1+1.5)=4000
2500*(1+1.5)=6250


In this case Kaom's gives you 56% more HP, same as above.

Yes, obviously the percentage change over your base health is no different (unless base health changes). The nerf is in the increase of HP: in the first set you increase by 3600 hp, in the second only 2250.

Also you're missing the most important thing: that if life nodes only increase life by 4%, they'll be half as valuable vs. armour, evasion and resistance nodes. And if armour and evasion are buffed, than it's even less than half.

Hence you will be wise to take fewer life nodes and more armour, evasion and resistance nodes, further nerfing Koam's value.

its the rsult of loving his own game, and not just trow it out so they can ssay "GIMMIE, GIMMIE.... GIMMIE GIMMIE

Eternal oarb solves another problem for me -- can divine my wand a big +%phys mod and a little +%phys/accuracy mod where I am unsure which exact prefix category the big %phys mod is in

I'm worried about ES/ER based builds. If life and ES values are decreased, as well as incoming damage, then armor based builds end up taking a lot less damage than before (because of the way damage reduction works). ES/ER based builds lose viability compared to armor based builds.

I'm also worried about reflect. Reduction to life and ES makes reflect of any kind more deadly. Reflect is already so build-limiting and for many players the biggest risk in end game. This change will make it even more deadly.


Overall this seems to reduce diversity and promote cookie-cutter builds.

Don't know if this has been answered, but it sounds like physical damage will go up but life will go down. Is reflect reduced aswell then, otherwise it's a bad change for hardcore.

Cheers to some of the most involved and player-centric game developers out there! Thanks for all the amazing work GGG

I love this game nuff said. I used to play all kinds of games until this game consumed my life. Thanks GGG. Guess you can thank the D3 disaster for making your game even better than it already is: )

make no differnece or insignificant//////////////// the physical reduction formula is armor/(armor+ 12*dmg), this what GGG is trying to do to reduce the dmg, increase armor has no effect as the divisor armoe also ups.

The root of the problem is not this algo or reflected, it's the desync/lag that GGG doesnt have a fix which forces GGG to do this quick fix.
