Path of Exile: Forsaken Masters
" yeah its a sticky situation. I think honestly crafting needed to change, it needed to be less ridiculous and anyone whos spent out on items just has to take that on the chin. That said, how big is the change? I recently spent 10 eternal/exalts trying to roll flat evasion on a chest, and failed. Thats 50 exalts, which is 1600 chaos. Yeah I was aiming for 400 flat evasion, I would have taken 200 though. so I spent 1600 chaos not getting it, now I can buy it for maybe 5 chaos..........? Seriously? If you made the current chaos recipe give you an exalt instead of a chaos, that would be less of a significant change in terms of orbs, gear and crafting. This change has the potential to completely change the item game, and make it easier by unthinkably huge factors. We will have to wait and see the details when they come out. Unthinkably huge is not necessarily a bad thing, its not necessarily a good thing either though. |

Gotta say I'm pretty excited for this stuff. As a semi-casual player this all appeals to me. Can't wait! Thanks for all the answers Chris.
EDIT: VERY glad to see the change to challenges. I never bothered with them before because I knew there was no way I would get a T-shirt, but I want that MTX!! Last edited by Aziraphale#5651 on Jul 31, 2014, 8:20:03 AM

First off, I want to say this: "HYPUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!"
Second off, everything looks really awesome. I do have a question, though. SotV was very end-game focused, with a lot of grinding. Most every goal in the game, be it reaching 100 or completing 6+ Challenges, tend to be very grind focused. Since this expansion seems aimed at "everyone", can you tell me how hard it will be to reach level 8 reputation with the Masters? I hope it won't be easy, but if level 8 is the equivalent of hitting 100 I'm going to be upset lol. I know Chris mentioned in a stream that rewards were going to come "sooner than usual" in this expansion, and I'm hoping he means that a more average player like me will be able to complete the content. (PS. on my girlfriend's account, sorry :P) |

One thing regarding the expansion: it seems that the prevalent symbol for the expansion is the fleur-de-lis, mostly associated with the territory of France and royalty.
Having in mind that in a previous thread (the UI change), it was stated that the developers were aiming for a roman art style for the game, does anyone from GGG's team care to elaborate on the reasoning behind the use of this symbol? I'm simply curious. | |
