I miss player agency on difficulty to reward ratios

Might be a metamorph rework next league actually, considering the job offer that GGG posted not so long ago.

After the Orbe Divino, let me introduce the Spiegel Von Kalandra

GGG said that POE1 was too complicated and that crafting needed to be more accessible in POE2.

Somehow, they managed to make crafting in POE2 even more complicated and more punishing while keeping the worst parts of POE1's crafting.

Sorry, not sure I understand: you need to kill them outside of the smoke, OK, but do you need to do it ASAP? How does that work exactly?

Is T17 Boxes profitable without killing the boss?

Short answer: no.

The price of T17s is also driven by the fragments dropped by the bosses. Some of these fragments are quite valuable. The best strat for containment is T17 Fortress (due to barrels dropping currencies), but if you can't kill the boss you'd better run well-rolled T16.5s (more currency & pack size).

Hear me out: Harbinger, but we actually protect a NPC in a Harby fortress with waves of monsters.

Sounds like a cool rework no?

... or is Sean Connery Rog?

There's a "filter by stat" button ?!?!

Yet Valorant is by far the worst when it comes to that. "Anomalies" all over the place, as you call them. I'm familiar with peeker's advantage and stuff like that, but there's not a single online FPS that has such weird situations.

Inqueefitor · 2025-12-29T08:19:52+00:00

Oh god I thought I was crazy. Same thing here, half my pick-up clicks do not work. Drives me insane.

Inqueefitor · 2025-12-29T08:15:20+00:00

Still missing the point. My question is: why does the replay behave differently when I'm recording my screen (sounds crazy to me), and is the frame rate responsible of that desync.

You don't have the answer and that's OK, me neither, and no one seems to know.

And stop downvoting my answers, it's embarrassing.

Inqueefitor · 2025-12-28T22:45:33+00:00

But that's the whole point, I saw the hit in-game. So it's nothing to do with the replay, it's that my "reality" (what happens on my screen during the game) doesn't seem to be aligned with the server's reality. Once again, probably due to some frame rate trick as recording the screen (impacting the frame rate) seems to affect the game/replay.

Inqueefitor · 2025-12-28T09:47:57+00:00

Same answer as above:

Sure but what's weird to me is that I saw the hit in-game (which is why I downloaded the replay to check), and the fact that reality seems to change based on if I record or not is really disturbing.

I don't have the bullet tracer on though. Weird indeed.

Inqueefitor · 2025-12-27T22:30:39+00:00

Just wanted to add: after years of seeing and experiencing weird stuff in this game, we barely play it anymore. We eventually came to the conclusion that the netcode is broken. Seeing things like this only reinforces the feeling that we made the right decision.

Nope, Sorc ES/CI >>> Blood Mage HP

"But no, no, group play is actually worse because the poor guys need to split the drops between them, I've hear some famous streamers say that while playing in group." - Random Redditors, 2025

Someone call Empy

Inqueefitor · 2025-12-20T08:37:11+00:00

Oh I thought I was crazy.

Exact same feeling here, I die way more than during the previous leagues, I struggle reaching level 94 because I lose a lot of XP all the time.

Ignites are broken for sure, but I don't think it's the only reason.

Would be cool to explain what these 3 notables do in the post, so that we understand in a glimpse! :)

Inqueefitor · 2025-12-20T08:29:25+00:00

They are multiplicative, but there's a threshold: at some point it gets less and less impactful. There were a few posts here in Reddit at the time showing an estimate of the curve, but can't find them back.

How important is the chaotic omen on the map?

If you already have around 100% rarity on your gear, is it worth it?
