FREE EXALT

a literal god

If GGG read these threads, what would you want to say to them?

WHY DIDN'T THEY JUST CHANGE CLEAVE TO WORK THIS WAY
ARE THEY RETARDED?
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

who is the qt in bottom left?

So they're getting really lazy and combining cleave with double strike. I wonder what the thought process is when making obsolete skills even more obsolete, especially when you don't buff the old skills to be competitive with the new ones. The saddest part is is this is just going to end up being a shitter reave or broken reave.

And we haven't even gotten to the part about how this is suppose to be another leveling skill, which anybody that gets to 70+ in a day isn't going to give a shit about anyway.

Nah, Bex is another girl

gotta love the armchair specialists who've never gotten past level 90 in hc

i guess spark doesn't scale past level 28 either, since it's a hillock reward

Of all the things to cherry pick, you pick that.

Or maybe you didn't read the whole post and missed the part about the possibility of it being a better reave.

stop letting the game die for 9 months a year

make the game hard again. people getting lvl100 in three days is honestly a joke. even diablo 3 is more hardcore than that. the D3 season 6 ladder is a month old, and the highest level in HC is 92. lvl100 in SC wasn't reached until a week ago.

release shorter, more difficult competitive leagues alongside challenge leagues(these don't need to be anything special, just something to appease tryhard poopsockers like my'reself; challenge leagues are easy and boring, and a lot of people enjoy laddering more than anything else)

stop letting OP builds trivialize endgame. t12+ red maps should never be faceroll like some of the current fotm builds allow(VMS, vspark, coc discharge).

shorten pre-map leveling. it's tedious and boring playing through the same content dozens or hundreds of times. four acts, three difficulties, all exactly the same. compound labyrinth and its trials, which are a huge pain in the ass, and you get the worst leveling experience i've ever dealt with in my life.

more immersive story and atmosphere, and an ultimate bad guy. we're an exile left to die, but it never feels like it. we're supposed to be the hero, but it never feels like it. we're supposed to be entering abandoned crypts and caves full of evil shit, but it never feels that way. who are we fighting exactly? it's a mess. the game in its current state is literally just a skinner box thinly veiled with something pretending to be a compelling story. we all love chasing the carrot on a stick, but the most memorable thing about Diablo is the story.

I agree with you, user. Perandus was such a boring league that had no difficult content besides some of the Perandus bosses in maps with scary mods. Playing the Flashback league reminded me how fun Beyond, Invasion and even some of the Warbands can be. They should make them part of the base game or ramp up the difficulty significantly.

...

It's going to be ok, Soda.

whats a catposter

that's not soda, fucking retard

Not now sweetie. There's no need for us to discuss scary stories right now, this can wait until you're grown up.

...

My bad.

I miss depressed poeg
hope those guys didn't kill themselves

Make reflect a reverse lifeleech, complete with a cap.

...

so what the fuck is really going on with poe

it seems like suddenly GGG has pulled a 180 on their design and business philosophies

they don't want poe to be a 'hardcore' game anymore, and they aren't sticking to their 'never p2w, ethical microtransactions' business motto

my guess is it has everything to do with their partnership with tencent

One day i will atziri

You're being too vague again

nah you're just stupid

>tfw they'll never make a good league again
>they just catter to shitcorws
>let's wait 10 trillion months to release a new league guys

git gud, scrubshit

retard

...

>too used to letting macros and autopot bots do all the work so can't even type a word properly

typical hardcuck

can you actually make an argument in favor of the current state of poe? if not then jokes on you

How have you not even killed Atziri?

make up your mind about what I am dumbasses

retard

flask based build best build in path of exile! alchemist and pathfinder gives 50% flask effect, tree gives 50% increased duration. 30% phys reduction basalt for 9 seconds! 60% extra chaos damage from atziri promise! this shit is filthy

because it's pointless? why would anyone bother with atziri? to impress some limp-dicked betas in poeg? who fucking cares. none of this matters

> Don't want to play PoE since I have limited time to kill and I know I'd spend almost all of it just thinking up my build.
> Don't want to play Diablo 3 because dead shit game.
> Do want to play a similar game.
> Would ideally rather not spend any more money.

Is there any game that I can just jump into that can satisfy my need to random items and loot that gets shinier and shinier as I play?

>none of this matters
Catposter lets me sleep with his 1/10 landwhale girlfriend for every shitpost I make here. It kinda matters for me.

marvel heroes
grim dawns
torchlight 2/1

You're right, why should I have to think about my character's defenses? Just let me stack 50 fps nods so I can faceroll t14s in 4 minutes! reflect should be easily negated with minimal life regen and 0.5% life leech boot enchants. By the way, can we remove exp penalty on death too?

softcore scrub detected. xp loss hahahahha

>he doesn't have enough damage to die to reflect

I am quite put off by the look of Marvel Heroes. Petty, I know.
I'd have to pay for Grim Dawn Plus it doesn't even have a general I can say is shit while I browse it.
I've got Torchlight 2 but have never given it a chance. Something about the start/artstyle/somethingalsopetty put me off. Should I play it?

>What is VP

mh can look very nice if you have a modern pc. its prolly one of the only arpgs that runs on a decent game engine

GD can be torrented and its a single player game anyway.

T2 is fine with the synergies mod. Its a slower arpg than PoE but if you like the genre you may enjoy it. Again, single player and its older than the rest.

Problem with Torchlight 2 is the density of mobs is much lower, you're also encouraged to use more than just one skill in combat. The art style is definitely off putting and it really doesn't get any better. The only saving grace is its modable so theres a bunch of mods out for it you can try out.

synergies mod addresses most of the problems with the game except the cartoony art if that aint your thing. there are mods that try to change that but imo they make it look worse as they are just the same textures/models with some ps filters on them

torchlight 1 is much closer to d1/d2 and in a way, more fun that way

there also some oldies like Nox or Divine Divinity that are great

why aren't ARPGs more popular? why can't normies git gud?

cant really play them with controller
cant really play them casually and have fun
can't play them socially unless its with other auties

grim dawn doesn't have the dedicated shitposter base of /poeg/
naturally generals die when they're no longer relevant but no, we can't just let go, can we?

also casuals much prefer isometric roguelite "arpgs" like nuclear throne and binding of isaac simply because you can play them in relative short stretches and still experience all they offer

...

From what I remember about Synergies Mod is it also ups the monster HP and turns them into fucking damage sponges so much so that I had to turn it off cause fighting them was boring.

at some point that was tuned down a bit and/or skills in general got a slight buff in the sense that now stats contribute more to damage

last time i played i picked embermage and during a3 i was actually doing enough damage to rip myself to reflect

Aight, I suddenly have a fair amount of disposable steambucks.
Is Grim Dawn gud? I'm basically looking for a mid-way point between D3's simple pick-up-and-play gameplay and PoE's build/gear variety/difficulty.
Decent difficulty would be nice too.

Does such a game even exist?

try grim downs

switch to veteran difficulty as soon as you can

lots of the mechianics familiar in poe also apply there. keeping resists up, etc

money

> Said difficulty twice.

Yeah, just kill me desu.

Probably will give it a shot.

Grim Dawn has a really nice aesthetic when you're fighting cockroaches and shit. Also the guns and projectile molotovs feel satisfying, theres a kick and sound to it all that goes well. As for theorycrafting, I feel like it borders too close to being purposefully complicated and ends up being obtuse.
The PoE tree is big, but its a single system. From what I remember GD levelling is two systems working in unison.

>From what I remember GD levelling is two systems working in unison.

basically leveling into any class grants you some stat bonuses (and skill points)

but you also get some stat bonuses to allocate outside of the class levels to round up your build

plus the shrine devotion which you earn cleansing shrines stuff makes a HUGE impact lategame. think of of the poe lab enchants, but much more op. they can basically redefine your entire build later on

those aren't isometric games fuckhead

*tapes a bunch of uniques to build*

It's not right. It's not fair.

>won welfare demis 2 years ago*
nice achievement, retard

What the hell was that webm

anyone else noticed the flasks have an animation on use now

>he really doesn't have enough damage to die to reflect
>he thinks VP actually helps in every case

based

Which one?
I got a folder full of them.

VP will save you if you do less than 10,000 elemental damage, though.
