I was super critical of the notes and I will admit I thoroughly enjoyed Act 1, and was actually disapointed when I got to Act 2 and the difficulty dropped so sharply.pork never goes bad posted:That said, tytykiller already quit - he's been streaming D3 for a couple hours. lmao his stream is some good poo poo right now. He's talking about how after he's done playing D3 he's transitioning into full time FF14 streamer. apparently not being able to ignore literally every mob in act 1 is just too much. btw, reaper is loving super rear end trash garbage, to the point where it is very likely bugged: https://streamable.com/snboh4

Explosive Concoction allows you to use either a quiver or a shield. It doesn't feel great without utility supports.

I legit feel like some people are just burned out from playing POE for years and years at this point. No game is going to keep your attention forever, it's fine. Then again, Tyty's whole schtick was levelling through the acts insanely fast, right? I suppose the changes are going to make it an entirely different game for him compared to how it feels for the rest of us plebs. InventorOfTrees posted:btw, reaper is loving super rear end trash garbage, to the point where it is very likely bugged: https://streamable.com/snboh4 I was expecting "garbage" to mean it was worse than a golem despite the downsides, not actively shittier than a single zombie/skeleton with the same investment

Mostly just mobs are actually faster than the player, so you have to deal with a lot of them rather than run past them. Chris pointed out that prior to this update, there wasn't a single monster in the entirety of act 1 with a faster base movespeed than the player.

A1 changes are fine imo. It feels like a good mix of difficulty, at least for someone that's played the game a lot. Newer players may struggle a bit with it and I kinda wish they had started with A10 and worked back because of this. Through A4 so far. The changes overall haven't made the campaign too much of a slog yet. Really the only part that I'm worried about now is if later labs are a bit more dangerous with the puncture/bleed changes. Barring that, next big test is to see if mapping sucks rear end now or not.

Papercut posted:The Brutus change is super troll-y and just emphasizes how lovely the walk through that hallway is. Unless you can just walk into his normal room so if you die you're right there? it's so stupid I hate it lol. i almost never rip to Brutus but I got epically chain hooked through a wall and then ate a ground pound combo to the face and died. Then I had to walk for literally 2 minutes back to the fight because I didn't have my quick silver from the first walk up.

Been playing with Voltaxic Burst a little as I level (Shadow, using Cobra Lash and Holy Flame totems to level with because synergy doesn't matter one bit right now and they're fun skills) and it's...it's interesting, it looks cool, I have no earthly idea when I'd use it for real. Totems maybe, or Battlemage's Cry (though I feel like there have got to be better choices there). Right now I charge it up a bit in case anything gets too close but I'm not sure that just blasting away with my other skills isn't just as effective.

Leveling as melee has been very painful. The trigger gems costing mana really makes it difficult to cover your bases. I died 8 times in mud flats because there was a rare and a magic pack next to one of the nests. I think weirdly enough an archmage build is a really solid starter now. The mana changes don’t touch you, you don’t have to get in melee range, and you have a really good guard skill + some mid campaign tankiness. This is easily my slowest league since Perandus

so far eye of winter traps is sick. it's like throwing a bunch of freezing buzzsaws into a room, dominus went down faster than any build i've ever played. we'll see if it holds up going forward but it seems like the potential is there

I didn't notice anything different about Merveil, I do like act 1 having more enemy variety and pack size and being somewhat threatening if you try and run past everything, but I think it should really give you access to more 2-3L items early on if they are going to swarm you with hyperspeed enemies that turn into a binary "kill or be killed" Feel like it would pair much better with the gem changes from poe2.

So far the only change I really dislike is the flask one. Act 1 changes were fine, its fun knowing roas can gently caress your poo poo up. I havent seen a whole lot of the relative power decline yet from skill gems affecting me a whole lot. Reaper has potential but doesn't seem to be eating srs, def eating skellys though. No issue keeping it alive right now with a few life leach and life nodes, will see at maps though.
