ORCHARD BOSS / INSTAGIB / BALANCING ISSUES

SORRY TO BE BLUNT, BUT WHO THE FUCKING HELL IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS SHIT?!

The new Orchard boss "Vision of Justice" just cost me another 20% exp at lvl94 - and why?

Because a max spell block gladiator cannot block a fucking autoaim laserbeam.

Life? sure... 5,7k gone in 2 sec - GOOD FUCKING JOB - life pots useless.

And then there's the other map.... where shit just blows you up when the countdown runs down.. also fucking nice - or Dominus with his one shot facepunch, I could go on ... that list is long.


Not to mention the fucking inbalance with Melee vs Ranged already going strong - or PvP!!
And again thx for even moree stupid exp penalty.


Go get a grip GGG and make the game even harder!!

Maybe you should require everyone to start twitch streaming, because normal ppl that gotta work for a living can't compete anymore.

Here's a fun thought, though - as soon as someone starts streaming the game on twitch - maybe make it 10x harder for him with 10x less loot.

That'd be fun for all others to see how they adapt.


Anyway, until you finally get the idea of balanced gameplay, I'm done with PoE for good now.
I thought that expansion will be worth my time again.


Guess not anymore.

The only way you would be able to (kinda) compete with someone that has all day to play is if they introduced the fatigue system. And that isn't happening.

Best not to think about it too much, try playing for your own enjoyment and if that ain't working out for you just forget about online playing altogether.

I don't watch streamers for poe, but if GGG made the game 10 times harder
and drop a tenth as many items....

I would watch that shit all day long son!

Haha. You laugh, but that sounds like my current gear set.

Based on some of the boss changes, I am surprised there haven't been more HC rants. Have they all been beaten into submission.

Nah, there's just nobody playing HC at the moment.

The new bosses are pretty rippy tbh. I am doing fine so far since I am not in their melee range with my SRS, but I can understand what you're saying. The other day I was with my friend in quay t10 map, he was playing shock nova toon and was one shotted. Melee is in pretty tight spot atm.

o.o that makes me so wanna do it!

Is there some kind of mechanic to that laser I'm not understanding? I just gibbed to it 6 times in a row, and I don't even know what I'm doing wrong. Boss fires it as soon as I get in range to attack, I can't get out of the way or mitigate the damage like standing still on a bleed, wtf?

It's a mechanical fight, very similar to Shock & Horror but her other abilities are far less annoying than warping totems that leave shocking ground and easier to avoid.

She uses her regular mortars that deal fire damage, they can shotgun so multiprojectile map mod is not advised, she will not use them at short range. Also fires mortars that spawn skeleton adds, not a big problem. She also has a warp move (green field around her) that also deals fire damage and slows you down, easy to avoid.

The thing that killed you was probably her laser, it does fire damage over time but doesn't start right away, you got time until the ring around you contracts so it's easy to get to a pillar nearby and break her line of sight which will stop the laser.
