    Go figure - Delve and Blight are my 2 favs now. Lowest numbers in last 12 leagues. I quit Delerium in about a week and didn't come back until Ultimatum. Remember the net fiasco with Bestiary? I am surprised the retention over 3 days was that high. And the red mobs you couldn't kill due to...

    Were the Mana Cost Multiplier changes on Support Gems too Extreme? Yes, they were too extreme. Based on feedback and data, we are reviewing the mana cost multipliers again and will be reducing many (but not all) of them. While this will ease the impact on your mana by a moderate amount, the...

    I am doing Gladiator Bleed splosions and I used Lacerate (lolol) and then Shield Crush (way better once I discovered it on accident) to SST. This is why that Reddit post someone screenshotted was true - slogging through some throwaway skill and gems for 30 levels to get to your ACTUAL skill is...

    At the rate I am playing it is going to take me a week to get to maps, this is ridiculous. I ran 4 chars through the campaign in Ultimatum and was never once this bored. Anyway, I am trying SST and it doesn't feel too bad. I can tell already it is going to be limited at high maps, but it's...

    Because, realistically, I am an idiot, it took me a couple of tries to figure it out as well. First I thought you needed to put your things on one of the nodes/signposts. Then I didn't realize that the various nodes represent the actual chest that spawns or the monsters that spawn, I thought...

    This was every Friday night and Stampede week in the Oil Patch for 50 years, until women decided they were too delicate and important. There was a time this industry was a little misogynistic and white male-dominated, and it was glorious, successful, and amazing. Now? It sucks so bad and is...

    In Byr's defense, D3 is ridiculously boring with the predetermined set drops every league/season/whatever and the class-selective loot determination. In Ariakas and several others' defense, the complete lack of deterministic loot outside of, what, 5 bosses, a loot table so deep you have a...

    Come on, man, don't be purposely obtuse. They solved it with the trade market for in-game gold, then fucked it when they added the real money portion where Blizzard got a slice. Greed killed it. Edit - I don't know if you remember "Inferno Levels" but Blizzard designed the game so hard with...

    Replying to my own post, speaking of hubris. Anyway, in lieu of just quoting. I think everyone thought the game was going to go to shit when TenCent bought them out. The game had some nerfs since then but certainly the zoom zoom increased, all in accordance to what one would have thought the...

    We care more about making a good game than we do about vanity metrics like player concurrency records. I suspect this is because we're gamers first and businesspeople second. The direction Path of Exile was going in over the last year was breaking player records but wasn't really leaving us...

    This feels like China teamed up with the Democrats to ruin my fun grinding game. I just wanted to play video games, man. The economy, the culture, the jobs, and now fucking PoE is going in the same direction. China and the Democrats, ruining everything.

    I used to start every league with an Ancestral totem build (whatever the AOE one is). Easy, scales decent, and can do most of the original Atlas without too much problem. It was slowly being outscaled by new content when I stopped doing it. I now start every league with Cyclone (crit of late)...

    People like playing mines/traps about as much as they like totems. It was moderately niche until spell totems increased in popularity at least. Maybe this is the big totem/trap/mine meta push.

    We want to provide new avenues for players to mitigate Bleed, Corrupted Blood and curses, given how common Bleed and Curse removal flasks were. As a result we have added extra support on the passive tree to mitigate Bleeding, Corrupted Blood and Curses, through new stats on existing notables or...

    We are buffing melee. Scratches chin: A couple of existing supports have had a downside added, allowing us to keep the damage multiplier relatively high. As an example Melee Physical Damage now grants supported skills 10% less Attack Speed. Right. And let's nerf Fortify in the ground because...

    That's the same drug they give you when they need you conscious but pliable for things like wisdom teeth extraction and butthole scopes and the like. I did the minimum research but it looks like they still use N2O for wisdom teeth (?), but they do use drugs like diazepams for colonoscopies -...

    I am not sure I understand what you are trying to relate here? What exactly do you mean by "finished"? The game is not "hard". As a matter of fact it is super easy, with any build, really. But the difference between having fun grinding and saying "fuck this game" is a fine line for most...

    While the autistic min-maxer streamers are what bring all the boys to the yard for PoE, it is the unwashed masses of casuals that pay the bills for GGG. Why they would nerf player damage across the board which would, seemingly, make the game harder and less accessible to the average Joe, I...

    I am going to alienate Nirgon and Chuk here, but I believe Saves Christmas was, in my opinion, the single worst movie I have ever seen in my entire life, and I saw it in a small town theatre when it released in '88. It has yet to be dethroned.
