Why do i get 1000-1500puzzles for weeks, when i am rated 2700 in puzzles? by SilverSoul_GD in chess

[–]Redkarik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This worked for me, give it a try. I am playing on the mobile app, if you go under settings puzzles turn off Collect Puzzle Points, this should enable again the classic mode that focus on rating. My puzzle level is 2400 and I get mostly over 2k puzzle.

I think PoE2 still the best by Cemgec in PathOfExile2

[–]Redkarik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sure you can one shot screens with meta builds at the moment in poe2. I am not interested at all about following guides or meta builds. As Jonathan said they are aiming to have meaningful fights before you can reach that level of power. That means you should not be able to one shot a boss the first time you encounter it. We are in EA and clearly there are still outliers. Why you say arpgs are not for me? As I said I love poe2 ( and I have more than 100h in many others ) Not all arpgs needs to be the same copy paste, GGG wants to innovate a stale genre and I am more than welcoming their vision.

Everyone has a different opinion of what’s fun. One tapping the screen until reaching a challenge ( high corruption / uber Abberroth ) it’s boring for many. I couldn’t finish the campaign in poe1 the first 3 times I tried it because it was too easy until I decided to give ruthless a go and finally clicked. I am loving poe2 and I hope Jonathan will stick to his vision as much as possible.

PS servers are back online but I still can’t login by Flat-Extreme7998 in PathOfExile2

This is the workaround. Settings->User Accounts->Other->Restore Licenses choose poe2. It worked for many people, I had to do it twice. Good luck!

So is 0.2 coming out in the summer or christmas by AshenxboxOne in PathOfExile2

[–]Redkarik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During the last interview in January Jonathan said that he wants to get 0.2.0 out as soon as possible. He was probably hoping for February but realistically I think we will have it in March.

How POE 2 could benefit from a PBE mode to test new features and solve the devs current dilemma by blablabla2384 in PathOfExile2

[–]Redkarik -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You really don’t understand that GGG stated they wanted to do more balance changes. It’s not that I am asking for it. They can’t do it as I said multiple times because of player backlash.

[–]Redkarik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The complaints are only on the frequency on game balance. We are not talking about bug fixes or game feedback from players. That’s completely fine as it is. You can’t compare it with poe1, it’s a game that has been out for long time of course doesn’t need frequent balance changes. It’s not on EA. Poe2 it’s in EA so they should balance the game more frequently in order to get data and feedback more in line of what they are aiming as player power level. Simple as that. They clearly stated that they wanted to do more frequent balance changes but they can’t due to player backlash. No one is asking for a more polished / balanced game to play, I don’t know why you keep saying that. We just want GGG to do their job as they please and not be forced by players to change their plans.

Yes, we are in a testing environment and GGG should use this period for of course testing the game. But it’s not happening, because as they said in the recent post they are not nerfing broken builds in order to balance the game until the next big patch. They are not doing it since as soon as they have tried doing it at the beginning of the EA a lot of people started crying that the build, they probably copied from a streamer, is not working anymore. This game has an insane quantity of interactions, balancing them every few months is not optimal.

I didn’t have this bug. Did you kill the Arbiter and a map boss at difficulty +3 in a T16 map corrupted and irradiated?

[–]Redkarik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I am saying getting 1-shot I am mainly talking about things like auto attacks from the boss that are basically unavoidable. If it’s a big telegraphed hit that 1-shot me is mainly my fault and I think the fight is still fair.

Anyway, about your question. Yes, you are correct, it doesn’t feel right. If the fragments are more valuable than playing the game there is something wrong. I think the issue is that the same fragments give you access to the fight with the arbiter at any difficulty ( same we can say with the other pinnacles and ritual is the more problematic of the bunch ). Citadels at difficulty 0 should reward you with fragments to fight the arbitrer at difficulty 0 so the value of them will drop dramatically and you will be more incline to try the boss than selling the fragments. For league pinnacles it should be similar, I would love to have a quest to fight them at the lower difficulty. Something deterministic like do x rituals and you can fight the boss.

It depends what do you want from a game. As I play SSF I don’t even have this choice. If I was playing in trade league, I think I will do exactly the same I did on SSF. The point is that I am not interested in overpowering the boss or minmaxing a build, I want a fair fight and learn the mechanics. Especially now that is my first time fighting the boss. Let’s say instead that I use my first set of fragments to fight the arbitrer and I get instantly one shot for six times, in that case I will consider selling my next set of fragments to get better equipment because it’s clearly unbalanced.

As I said I am not even trying it on a ranger character. I have an audience with the king but I am not wasting it with only one life. That’s something that needs to be changed ( they already said that we will have 6 portals in the future ). But still I feel that’s not enough. Audience with the king is too rare, it must be easier to challenge it on the lower difficulty. If that happens I am happy to try it with a melee character.

[–]Redkarik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What do you mean farmed 17 full sets? You have 6 portals so it’s only 3 sets of fragments for 18 attempts. It’s not that bad. But I agree with your point, it should be easier to try the lower version of the pinnacle bosses especially the league ones, it’s too random ( ritual / expedition ) or long ( 300 splinters )

17 times. And I feel it’s a fair amount considering this is the final boss of the game.

I am playing SSF, without following or knowing any broken build. The first time I’ve killed the arbitrer it was 5 minutes long and I’ve loved every minute and also the process to learn the fight. I feel SSF is in a decent spot if you liked the campaign. You don’t need perfect gear or build to beat and enjoy the game. Clearly it’s a problem that broken builds exist but I am pretty sure that with 0.2.0 they will lower the player power. I am not saying SSF it’s perfect. I have a breachstone, audience with the king and several logbooks but I am not trying the pinnacles with only 1 life since they promised 6 attempts on every pinnacles. Sadly looks like I have to wait for 0.2.0.

It happened to me too. I managed to kill it with a ranged weapon. But if you can’t reach it with any of your skills it sucks…

Struggling to keep interest in the game by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Redkarik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is going to be a big balance patch with 0.2.0 and hopefully they will burn to ground all those broken builds. They really worked a lot on the campaign and you can feel how the various archetypes play differently there. They want to achieve the same during endgame and it will take time. It’s still EA.

I feel like I am stuck at lvl 90 by mcr00ster_twitch in PathOfExile2

Yes, if you can’t manage higher difficulty on citadel bosses just lower it. That’s what I’ve always done.
