You can gamble with currency and get lucky, but the truth is that majority of players aren't crafting anything because the drop rates are extremely low and the risk of actually using precious currency simply isn't worth it. Majority of players who haven't dropped the season are just farming money for the gambling vendor and sell decent gear with numerous modifiers forward for exalts. As I said, you may as well turn everything the monsters drop into gold so you can get lucky at the gambling vendor. I have no idea what the fuck Jonathan is smoking with these drop rates.

if every boss one shots even 15,000 life then every single build has abolutely no reason NOT to become the equivalent of a 1 HP red tearstone ring in Elden Ring. if defenses are pointless damage is the only thing that matters.
Dark Souls has almost 0 one-shots besides fall damage, so the choice between offense and defense actually matters. Jonathan can't even plagiarize corectly

You still have to map. POE2 is very demanding on defenses right now, especially with the ailment/stun changes. You can avoid a lot of damage but a lot of it still gets through.

>if defenses are pointless
They're not pointless, not all boss attacks are oneshots.

>Dark Souls has almost 0 one-shots besides fall damage
Bosses having deadly attacks players need to avoid at all cost to complete the boss predates dark souls by several decades.

In pinnacle they do which is the context of the discussion. Arbiter has several attacks which the only answer for is not letting him use them on you since no amount of defense can ever tank......which mean you might as well just one shot him in 3 seconds like in 0.1.

On crit does it take a random mod or the same mod is brought over twice? Not sure how useful more LP would be if you can only modify item once.

All rolls are weighted against getting good items, vendors just have more currency than players, most of their gear is just as trash as yours

Armour break being applied to players by monsters no longer has the 20% extra physical damage modifier that was intended to only be a buff to players, and we have also reduced its duration to 4 seconds from 12. In addition, there was a bug where partial armour breaks were never removed on the player.
lmao so everyone was just running around with permanently worse armor, when armor is already the worst defense in the game

>>521071474
My guess why they don't like them is just because they're another build enabler.
PoE 2 is massively railroaded so they can't really add masteries, either they would enable too many builds that aren't "supposed" to exist or they'd have to be absolutely dogshit to the point where often you wouldn't take a single mastery despite taking the wheel.

masteries are one of the things that makes people actually want to put points into clusters instead of just stat-stacking and grabbing as many jewels as possible (which you'll notice the poe2 tree is dogshit and results in both of those being common)

we already have a big node at the end of clusters, masteries are redundant, aka bloat
if people don't take clusters, it's that they're too weak, this has jack shit to do with masteries.

They halved ailment and stun thresholds which means you need to invest in solving these if you're not a life stacker.

>>521071428
>>Heavy Stun duration on players is now 3 seconds (previously 1 second).
This is only really relevant for parrying and the rhoa. You can't get heavy stunned otherwise. The thing that's fucking people up is light stun,

Same, hes right about the devaluation part though, except PoE2 notables are worse than PoE1 notables so. Masteries are fun (one of my favourite is actually fire mastery that gives you 1 life regen per % fire res, really juicy for levelling)

Honestly everything about the tree conversation I disliked, I would often go to the tree (during levelling) and path to a resist node if I needed res early on. I feel like its very 1 dimensional take.

What the fuck is going on with the servers?

Why does GGG insist on designing a game that their players do not want while also not actually committing to doing that, meaning we end up with a game that is trying to be 2 different things and making everybody unhappy in the process`.

These kiwi fucks are so fucking retarded.

it's an off-screen minion with a command skill, the fluff is you have an army of archers behind waiting for your signal to fire.
of course they also don't count as being in your presence and mercenary needs 21 travel nodes before getting the first minion damage node on passive tree

So with all this they're still not changing anything about how fucking overreliant spear is on frenzy charges? Like 80% of fucking spear skills need frenzy charges to do anything, making build variety basically nonexistant on that weapon, since being forced into a charge build that has to generate charges before doing anything means you're just going gravitate towards the most powerful payoff.

Masteries are a stroke of genius that need to be expounded upon. They perfectly emblemize the color splashing meta of mtg and the flexibility that's intrinsic to the color wheel design that is supposed to permeate these games. The tree should have been made even more flexible and agnostic of weapon or skill type but Jonathan actually understands nothing of the underpinnings of his own game, and why it's a 3 color design in the first place. The entire concept is the archetypal arpg triad with zones of blending at the edges. He ripped all of that out for designer skills and designer classes. A complete bastardization of classic arpg mechanics. He's forsaken the roots of the genre and it pisses me off

>>521071708
they're broken in campaign (5% hp per second is ridiculous), great until ultra lategame in trade leagues always great in ssf. the temper weapon debacle was all a meme because you basically cant use it because you'll always have 4 points into max resistances and 4 points into masterwork. 20% str is amazing for giants blood, 15% life for one asc point is an easy pick, 5% regen is crazy, 5 max resist or shitty cloak of flame for the fourth pick.

I've actually enjoyed the campaign on my warrior more than playing the endgame on any build in 0.1, giga statstacker included. I just get into a rhythm and the combos actually feel good to pull off. When I get bumrushed I just raise shield, magma spray, prime for stun half the pack, then bonezone to clear a good chunk of the screen. It just feels satisfying. Even bosses feel good. While my huntress feels like ass to level, although I know Amazon has giga clear once in maps.

But monsters going fast fucks squishier build and the early game, and jonniboy himself said that the campaign has to fun

I fucking hope this fixes the interaction with Blood Boil too. Also Spearfield buffs, I can't wait to try and make a Spearfield bleed build. The game is fun.
>>
>>521073617
That would be fine but he is too much of an autist to even recognize that no matter how fun a 25 hour campaign is, most ppl will find it boring due to its length and repetitiion. ziz could have just asked him if he thinks ppl would play through elden ring every 3 months

Trading only exists if you can't live without perfect rolls. The game started as SSF and is perfectly fine that way.

It has pretty cool crafting (not as good as poe1), there is trading but I don't know how it works because you can opt into SSF for huge bonuses to drops and I did that

It has an actual trading post where you list and buy items directly, no need to badger someone and go through 10 hoops to buy your shit. Unfortunately this also means that the economy gets fucked rather early and you finish your builds quickly if you can grind enough gold. SSF is where it's at in LE. Also the crafting is fantastic though it loses a bit of importance late game where you'rre fishing for good affix drops.

It struggles to compete with d4 as well, because it has none of what people enjoy about that game (decent modern feeling arpg combat, pseudo mmo shit).

Thats the main way of scaling caster damage in PoE 1 as well. Thats why casters are easier to play in PoE 1 because their damage don't rely entirely on the weapon stats.

i was playing torment warlock that had a rotation of:
stack self-curse stacks with spirit plague/recude cd of profane veil

bone prison
chtonic fissure
profane veil (eat bone prison and hold for increased dps/survivabilty)

DR is almost always better than forced Invuln for gameplay reasons, but devs are too scared people will find ways to bruteforce their way through it, see Damage Attenuation in warframe or bossarmor in Isaac

>>521084937
LE already solved this by giving bosses a huge temporary ward/ES boost when phase transitions occur that will quickly tick down to 0 when the transition is over.
Blasters can wipe the health out and kill the boss, weaker builds just focus on dodging the transition and then continuing the fight

Geonor is a great arpg fight, I was blown away by that one the first time I did him. I think Jamanra is decent too but goes a little too silly with the bullet hell at the end.

And it doesn't work like that either. They have set health breakpoints where the ES is applied. Low damage builds will hit the breakpoints just the same.

Why ED lich specifically? Its only 30% more damage and some shitty defensive nodes

>>521086601
the whole point is that it's a temporary ES shield to extend the fight without forced invuln phases. Giving more health would punish weaker builds more. A temporary shield that can be brute forced through OR simply avoided until it decays is better than being invincible with fucking wannabe MMORPG phase changes

Geonor is good because his final phase is basically a Ludwig larp from bloodborne, of all the act bosses he's the best by far and it's clear Act 1 is basically the only act they put real time and effort into which is why it has so many more side areas and shit. Act 2 seems like it was supposed to have actual choices in order besides "go to gates-->lol gates are closed dumbass-->go to mine anyways". and has the weird moving tthe caravan mechanic that doesn't actually do anything.
Act 3 right now has them outright admitted it's unfinished and probably had parts of act 4 stapled onto it which is why it's so long with the past stuff and now unceremoniously dumps you back into cruel when returning to the present. Doryani as a boss fight is fine but he's actually the easiest of the three when you get to him which is retarded. He's nearly 100% elemental damage and all his physical hits are completely avoided by simply stabbing the robot's ass. He also has only 3x the HP of Jama Ra despite your gear and passives and skills being much more than 3x stronger than you are by end of act 2.

Well, wasn't going to post all details of the mechanic but the boss ES also drains at an increasing rate specifically to not gimp low damage builds.
Beyond that, the point of the mechanic was to introduce a visual representation of the older temporary invisible damage reduction buff which was applied when they were DPS'd too hard. That buff was meant to prevent the bosses from getting one-tapped by the very strong builds but as it was invisible, it would lead to the life bar shooting down quickly, slowing for no apparent reason while you're still hitting, and then shooting down quickly repeatedly.
Anyway, it is being changed in season 2 to have a higher drain rate and it will only appear on the "pinnacle" bosses and not mini bosses.

So don't have an invulnerability phase lol, why is the only other option invulnerability? Just give the boss more hp to extend the fight? Is this another case of sleepoch solving a "problem" that isn't even present in their game

>>521078276
Casters can't scale damage, their base damage is pathetic and Archmage was the only way to scale dps before it was nerfed. This is why Sorceress is the worst class in the game and no one plays her.
>>
>>521088017
I think this is to stratify the bonuses as they don't want to stack "melee" weapons with just that. I'm not too sure of the formula to think it matters though. Basically
>(50% + 10%)
vs.
>(50%) + (10%+
>>
>>521087202
the point is they don't want bosses to die instantly (the same problem poe2 has)
but if they just buff the hell out of boss hp so that the OP builds still take 2 minutes to kill the boss the average build would have a 2 hour boss fight
giving the boss a bunch of ward that decays lets them make the boss not instantly fall over while still not making the boss a slog for people that don't have an overtuned build

IMO better solution would be to simply have the basic version of the boss and a way to modify them to be much harder but more rewarding. Problem solved.

ideally they should just nerf damage even more, make monster tankier, nerf monster damage so you aren't just one shot while doing your mandatory three minute boss fight, increase loot rewards relative to the increased amount of time spent on content, and let zoomies bitch and quit

What is actually going to happen is that GGG will cave and just make PoE 2 into PoE 1 with WASD controls

You are completely missing the point that its purpose is to extend the fight duration for top end builds WITHOUT punishing the average player. Adding more HP fucks over people with worse builds or those who invested in defense instead of offense even more. That's the whole point.

there's "factions", one gets you cringe in-game auction house, the other is ssf type of deal that let's you slam some huge loot modifiers onto your maps. items acquired through ssf can't be put on trade, and you can't wear trade items if you suddenly decide to swap factions to ssf mid league. better drop tables for ssf is what poechuds have been asking for a decade. sleepoch got it.

NTA but no ARPG has ever solved this problem and pressing down on it just means devs will kill off a lot of build flexibility. You either make a game where everyone dishes the same amount of damage with what little options they are given or have such a massive disparity because the choices are nigh infinite.

3rd strike is an almost universally hated game. MY FUCKING POINT was that those games are fundamentally different. So you can bitch all you want that's not going to change.

This general is always enlightening because I get to see into the world of normie retard gamers. Running T15s with a build that this general says can't exist (no spears, fast clear), playing in a way that this general says can't be played (no setup). So every time I read something that is so blatantly wrong, it reinforces the actual skill and knowledge difference that this game allows for.

I swear there's an understanding of Poe content creators where, that you can just plagiarize each others builds as long as you change like 2 things to make it worse/better. Like jungroan just steals builds from Koreans half the time and profits off it, now it's "jungs build". You are probably just seething cause it's stolen valour which just means your an autist.

It's not a cope it's an inherent issue with the genre. Luck is all encompassing before anything else. Your build works because you were able to get the gear for it. I'm sure your "knowledge" about picking the correct +X % damage node is so fucking superior to the rest of us

>maybe you should be disenchanting every rare ;)
if you DE an item you don't get a socket from it. it's actually one of the most infuriating things in the game. I don't bother regaling shit because only 3 mods isn't better than just using a rare with 4 or 5 mods that has 3 decent ones, but I DO salvage every fucking socket and pick up every socketed item on the ground and I STILL have nowhere near enough artificers orbs to socket all my gear in each acts.
If you want to socket a single set of gear each between act 1, 2 and 3 that's like 180 socketed items salvaged, before even touching Cruel. No fucking way is Jonathan getting 360 socketed items and picking them all up and bringing thm back and clicking the little salvage hammer every single fucking time. I do not fucking believe him. The only items I socket are leveling uniques, weapons, and movespeed boots.
You can see that other people also have no artificers btw, if you check trade even when people are selling an item for 1ex they won't socket it before selling. I make sure to buy the ones with sockets even if they have like a 1% worse roll because Artificer orbs are such a pain in the ass. The currency exchange rate right now is literally 2.6 Artificer's Orbs for a single Ex.

Jonathan socketing all his gear is the equivalent of spending like 15 Exalteds on leveling gear lmao. On every character, not just a single set of twink uniques. No fucking way.

that's even worse since now you're regaling somehing with sockets and losing the regal too, and btw regals are still 3.5 per ex so it's not even much cheaper to attempt and has even worse odds than saving up artificer orbs to actually socket already rolled gear

Valheim is a game of attrition. If you try to run through areas and get surrounded with low gear or without food/rest then you die. It is probably a more difficult game to solo through than poe2. Just because travel and logistics is very unforgiving. You can totally bypass those issues with mods but if you play vanilla, it's very different

Bro attrition is killing the exarch on your 6th portal. If you're a shitter you can just throw yourself at him until he eventually dies, and if you're a hardcore shitter you can portal in an out to recover and skip his balls phases.

He's not wrong though, masteries do infact devaluate notables and as mark mentioned they just add an extra layer of complexity to the already complicated passive tree.

poe2 notables might be 'worse' in terms of power that they give but 90% of poe1 notables were just raw stats, it's actually the masteries that generally had something a bit more interesting going on. poe2 notables try to be a bit more interesting albeit ultimately not giving you really as much power in return.

It's not that far from my experience, except that socketing requires both orbs and runes. You can have one orb, but no iron rune and no rune for your lowest res.

Both the Mistlands and the Ashlands are really different from the rest of the game and both of the respective bosses for those areas are considerably harder than the other bosses in the game.
First arriving in the Ashlands is basically D-Day. You have to make landing and fight off hordes of enemies while establishing a beachhead. The biome is regarded as pretty anti fun by a lot of people just because of the sheer amount of enemies and shit you have to deal with

What was nonsense about it? Valheim has actual survival mechanics and actual lose states where you can run out of stamina, food, or become surrounded. Poe2 literally has NO lose conditions because you can simply pause the game.

Oriana sowed the seeds of doubt in his mind that he might not be a pure Ezomyte and the Corruption's presence only amplified this doubt into complete madness.
He's digging because he thinks he'll find something beneath the manor that proves he's a pure Ezomyte who's bloodline wasn't tainted by the Eternals.

Sorry your game is trash, has no threatening encounters that aren't just stat checks, has no combat mechanics, and no difficulty. They only attempted to create the illusion of actual combat mechanics and they are complete design failures - Parry? Fucking useless. Active block? Fucking useless. Defenses? Armour? Map verticality and positioning requirements? All invalidated because you can ride a rhoa and never slow down to attack. You can walk continuously and fire off against enemies in any direction while never having to face meaningful trade offs for anything. Never having to take a hit intentionally to gain advantage or advance on a threat. You literally just blow up the screen with right click, and then log out when the shiny colored spinning lights react the wrong way.

I dont understand why they go so hard on banning words when "sx" now means the exact same thing as a banned word and will probably also need to be banned in the future. And when that happens they will just make a new word that means the exact same thing. Just let us say nigger already

How? If we're being honest, nothing really got "resolved" during the interview. It just showed what Jonathan thinks how the game should be played and Mark trying his best to pacify people. There's no direction, no promises, just a mess. Why would anyone post positive reviews because of it.

The same reason so many skills have autolockon that you cant turn off, the game is designed for consolebabbies
