One Week Nemesis Race Infographic

Last week, our first one-week race of 2014 ended. Races like this provide great data about the current Path of Exile metagame, so we've generated some stats we'd like to share with you today - in infographic form!

There are some balance concerns in the stats which we will look at addressing at the new content and league cycle.

Scions were prevalent in the one week league, and take a lot of the same space as Witches and Shadows, reducing the numbers in these classes. Shadow appears to need attention specifically.

While the keystones used were influenced a little by players following specific examples, clearly Iron Reflexes is too dominant in this short format.

We will also be specifically looking at death rates for specific areas.

Also, we created the above image so that it's easy to link around to people who may be interested. Feel free to spread it to friends who know about (or should know about) Path of Exile. Thanks!

I usually hate these posts, so I apologize. Couldn't help myself, had to see what all the fuss was about.

I still don't get it...

On topic: I love playing as shadows, mostly as I like to go EB AA, so it was odd to see them as least used. On the plus side, if this means the big March Update gets me some shadow love, I'll get to respec a third of all my characters. Yay!

Really shows how balance is highly skewed towards life based characters.


Does no one remember back in mid-OB when CI was all the rage and everybody complained that health based characters were severely underpowered?

It was a great race to play in. Only really played for half of it sadly. But had a blast! Melee Witch is a bit more challenging than I remember.
This is great. Hopefully some good changes will come from this. Thank you for sharing with the playerbase!
