The leagues were the same way PoE was developed. A lot of things you see now in the core game date back to leagues from the betas. Stuff like strongboxes, exiles, a lot of the mods on mobs, half the bosses you fight in maps, shrines, onslaught, etc.
Probably at least 1 because there simply aren't replacement options out there. When you have the teams who need coaches looking at guys like DJ Smith, it really paints the picture. Their window is now. Waiting a few seasons for a new to the NHL coach to get their legs under them probably isn't...
That's about a 100% difference in contract value. Was a 5 mil contract, 2.5 in salary(a signing bonus included there but thats getting into the weeds) and maxed out bonuses.
Hoping for a guy who scored 49 points in 80 games to come back at league min + bonuses is some delusional thinking. That's the kind of thing that would lead to the league + PA getting involved.

A pretty funny read for the sexual assault case against the 5 world juniors players. The girl verbally consented....twice, acted like...
Are there any watching guides to use to skip the filler episodes? I mean episodes like halfway through the first season where there's suddenly an episode that has nothing to do about the soccer team, its just about Ryan and Rob talking about Wales, or early in the 2nd season where there's...
Here's an example of the extremes you need to do to hit level 11 and a bit at the end of Act 2:
And the start of him squeezing out every last drop to get to lvl 12:
You have to go full autist to hit max level by the end of act 2. You have to get basically every last sliver of xp available to do it. Every last inspiration on every character type of stuff. The chances Bald Bruh did it are basically 0.
That's just standard fare for the Panthers. Saw it from Tkachuk at the end too trying to slew foot Marner. The NHL constantly lets them play beyond the line and they consistently injure players from it. This is going to be their 4th event of note like this in 6 games these playoffs.
People had a lot of similar complaints in the 1st season, the segments would build slowly and pay off by the end. It has continued with the drop of the first 3 and it paid off. They do such a good job of living in the moment even when we all know how it has to end.
I'd imagine going to the authorities saying that your product is being used to solicit kids by your biggest star would probably bring scrutiny that you don't want.
Suspension is the act of stopping something for a short period of time. You can't have a permanent suspension because the word suspension indicates that it is expected to be short. When a 'suspension' becomes permanent, it is no longer a suspension. It becomes a ban.
If the only thing a game needs to do to keep you playing is let you 1 shot everything and not challenge you at any point, this definitely seems like a you problem. You clearly don't have high standards not to mention any standards at all.
I mean good for you I guess?
I played around 50 hours this league in hardcore, started as a Barb and leveled to 100. I grinded to 60 pits and killed normal bosses without ever worrying about gear, 1 shotting everything along the way. Nothing even pretended to fight back. I then grinded some...
If you have to grind for 50 hours before the game even pretends to fight back, wtf did you waste 50 hours on? You going to waste 50 hours on something that can't/doesn't fight back because way down at the other end of the road it will? You just have to sit there with a thumb up your ass while...
That's nice but there's literally zero incentive to do it. Pits don't reward better gear or anything, you don't get more XP from going to WT3 or 4 earlier as xp buffs cap at a 10 level difference. There's no incentive for the player to not take the safe, easy reward which of course players...
Patch is kind of pathetic. Nothing fought back before, let's make it so that's true for even longer in Pits and the Uber bosses. At some point the game needs to pretend to fight back before you are 20+ hours played into it.
My favorite experience with that fight was my honor mode run where I had an ice storm aoe going off at the base of the stairs when the fight ended. It proceeded to tick and hit all the Harpers who immediately turned on me and added a fight to the sequence.
I don't think anything changes in stuff like Moonrise density and the boss fights definitely aren't changed at all. You are just having an easier time because you know what you are doing this time around.
So I picked this back up to give it another try for a few weeks. My biggest gripe is still that there is no sense of progression at all. I quickly learned that gear is largely irrelevant. You only need to change gear 4 times on the trip all the way to looking for greater affixes other than...
The ceiling is definitely higher on some multi class shenanigans but the floor is very high to begin with. A straight 12 Fighter with haste will do hundreds of damage a turn and can perma CC most bosses with a mix of trip and frightening strikes. That Fighter will also reset everything in a...
People call the game easy because it doesn't scale well with character power, not because any of that other shit you want to blame it on. When you hit level 5, your party gets around an 80% dps increase from extra attacks and the game never scales with it. From there you do Act 1.5 where you...
Just about anything you'd need save scumming for can be worked around to. With how easy it is to hire companions and respec, you can load up a character to pass any skill checks in the game on an almost 100% basis. I think when I decided to go all in for the Mirror of Loss 25 checks, I was...
I played through honor mode and didn't have any trouble. Reality is the game is just easy. Ran into some bugs which forced things I didn't want to happen but for the most part any problem is solvable with just killing more people or ignoring it. The game regularly gives you a half dozen...
