The gore microtransaction can be used on weapons, along with a weapon effect and all instances of 'Extra Gore' from items also stack with the gore micro effect, so you get even more Gore than before! :)

So dual wielders will get more gore? :)

I want the people who gambled on the chaos node and ended up, apparently by some posts needing to relevel for those 3 respec points, but more logically shelling out the regrets to explain to me how GGG could have given partial respecs based on this. Coding wise, its easily possible to find inconsistent trees based on moved passives and give a full respec, if the tree still connects however, how in the hell does GGG know who to give respec to? And dont anyone say they could have pulled a 0.11 respec for all because that would stomp all over the many hours of playing people with the all keystone achieve have grinded.
Every time i read complaints about these kind of things it feels like people have gotten too used to the log in heres free stuff gaming concept. PoE is supposed to be a hardcore(not as in the league type) grinding game. If something changes and you arnt on top of that you arnt going to be babied and have mommy kiss your booboos, own up tl whats changed for better or worse and work with it.

INB4 bitching about my logic and demanding free things that are "owed" to the (F2P no less) customer

The lag microtransaction can be used on weapons, along with a weapon effect and all instances of 'Extra Lag' from items also stack with the lag micro effect, so you get even more Lag than before! :)

There are multiple way to go about that, if all else fails simply hand out a fixed number of points to those that speced in to the node, I'm guessing 5 or so should have covered basically any possible logical detour from normal paths.

While I gambled and have no issue owning up to that as it's not the issue, I was fine with the cost to go in to the node in the first place, same as how I was fine with the cost of fixing my spec if the gamble failed. Didn't expect in a million years that I'd be forced to spec out of points that where rendered useless at my own expense.

The issue is that we where left with dead nodes on the passive tree with a cost to fix it. I'm sure there are player who legitimately speced in to that node for the chaos resistance. This will remain a problem unless the policy regarding this changes for future changes to the tree and can be far greater than 3 nodes.

Anyway, back to mapping...

The Ranger starting area has been extensively reworked. Characters who have passive trees that are not compatible with the new layout have had all their passive skill points refunded. This will occur if a skill has been moved to a location that is now not connected to your other passives.

Just stop...it's been proven you WON'T get a measly 3 respec points or a full refund just because a node you jumped into on the last minute to try and score a full reset was moved closer and was still connected to the path.

Now you're just beating a dead horse in hopes of getting something out of it.

Thanks for the Extra Gore, I have been waiting a long time for it, it even has gibs! WiN!

Don't expect to get anything out of it, I'm hoping the policy is changed. I gambled on getting one to try out CI but never counted on getting it.

If people can step out of their 'lulz you didn't get a respec' mindset and look at it objectively for a second. Lets say it was inner force that was moved down to the middle next to iron grip instead and you as a duelist had speced in to it, all of the sudden you would have 8 points leading to nowhere.

Can you honestly say it's a good design that shouldn't be changed?

Valid sure...making sense? Not in a million years.

OK. I have a Duelist and knowing my build and seeing this picture, I can guarantee that when I log in I am going to have the same problem in this area of the tree. Prior to your shifting the tree around, those now extraneous Dex nodes were required for Iron Reflexes and/or the 8% Chaos Resist node. No one in their right mind would take those Dex Nodes now unless wanting Point Blank, and even with that no one would have taken that very last Dex Node. Seriously, anyone with a build in this area of the tree should have been given a free respec.

Funny, because I just checked my 79 Duelist who has Iron Reflexes and his tree looks nothing like that.



I smell something fishy on your end.

Nothing fishy. You don't have the 8% Chaos Resist node. The Chaos Resist node was moved, and prior to it being moved, those now extraneous Dex nodes were required. And no, I didn't go out of my way to get that 8% Chaos Resist node in hopes of garnering a free, full Respec (as others have accused). I had already taken that node before I knew it was going to be moved. What's more, after hearing it was going to be moved I had no idea to where. In addition, after logging in today and looking at my tree, I realized I had forgotten I spec'd into nodes after the 3 Dex nodes that are no longer required to obtain the 8% Chaos Resist. My 2-Hand Melee Damage and Attack speed nodes are right there as well as my Elemental Weapon Damage nodes. So for me personally, I don't even have a problem my tree. It's perfectly intact. But my original comments were NEVER for my own personal gain to begin with. I was commenting on the problem at hand: that people were legitimately getting stuck with 3 points in Dex nodes that are now no longer required. And being an honest person, it never even occurred to me at the time that people would go out their way to intentionally grab that Chaos Resist node in the hope they would garner a full respec. So in light me not thinking like a criminal when making my original post, only points for nodes taken after that Chaos Node should be refunded, and then only if it was just those 3 Dex Nodes that were taken.

You must not understand how gambling works. If you drop $1000 on a gamble AND LOSE you think that they will give you your $1000 back? HAH......right.

That is exactly what you are attempting to pull right now "SORRY GGG I GAMBLED AND LOST I CAN HAZ POINTS BACK NAOW?!" GTFO.
