We've reduced all monster damage and have made corresponding reductions to player Life and Energy Shield passive skills.

0_o So whats the point of that...nothing changed.


Re the general changes. I was watching a streamer the other day and he made an interesting comment. He was saying GGG looks like they are trying to make PoE into an eSport with the way things are headed. I have to agree.

See a mathematical example of why nerfing life nodes means that you need to spend less points on life to be efficient at the "NO MORE PATH OF LIFE NODES" thread at http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/400398,


To the untrained eye, the change may mean nothing, but when you mathematically analyze it, it means less points on life nodes is needed.

It isnt really about the nodes. It is the fact that GGG could halve monster damage and double character life and it still wouldn't be enough to make melee viable.

Is the physical damage % from bandits going to get increased? If the nodes get buffed and the reward doesn't I want my skill point :(

There is - in the works - but not coming yet - a respec of sorts for bandit quests.

Wasn't really my question...

Meanwhile, my stashes upon stashes of top tier ilvl gear will sell for inflated values as everyone wants to get their hands on the best materials, exacerbating the problem.

This is true, if you consider this game to be "PoEopoly". For those who don't want or don't have time for trading, those changes are great. For traders, probably not.

Exciting changes, yes.

Disappointing? Also yes.

After all this time, this game still doesn't have a real PvP option.

At the risk of being massively flamed, I believe Anarchy league leaves much to be desired. It's basically Cut-throat league's tame, stupid brother...

Oh, I think the changes are for the good and sound nice.
Less damage and an upgrade for Armor was necessary and help me a lot.

But:
What is the problem with something like a hobby league. Where one can play for recreation, instead of constant anger and frustration.

I am only able to play like 1-2 hours every other day. Right now, at level 73, I die about once a week trying to level up and find good gear. That nullifies my progress. That's why I stopped playing. Same to linking my items, stopped doing that, I can't even imagine ever owning 1500 fusing orbs ore other crazy s**t like that.

I'd like to see a decrease in damage and hp for mods by about 25% to make the game easier overall. Not for the hardcore gamers, but for me and my friends and people like me. Who have kids and work and less spare time but want to play (and spend money on) this amazing game.

i somewhat disagree with that esp even if armor is virtually untouched it will get buffed indirectly also they said that they are going to buff the defense nodes to make em more viable

now in the worst case scenario that means armor formula won't change but even so armor will become a big part of reducing physical damage taken (wich is a big deal for melee)

in the best case the formula gets changed (for the better)

either way i consider this a win win situation for melee.

Life on Hit Rules!

No but realy reducing all life/ES and Reducing all dmg will inc the value of Armor but why not just change the 12X Armor Vers Phy dmg math in it's place? I like seeing 6-9k ES on my Witch.

I would realy be unhappy to log in and see 2-4k ES on her. I know it will still take the same number of the same type of hit's before but come on what looks better 2-4k or 6-9k? Bigger is always better :)

Considering when you log into her after patch you wont have any passive skill points, I believe you will see her with less then 2k ES :P
