Great patch, with some minor suggestions

Hi,

English is not my native, so please bear with me. Thanks.

Thank you GGG for the new content, the 0.1.0 was getting really too boring with my multi-mirror gears. I was looking forward to the awesome new content, and I definitely enjoyed it so far.

But I have worries.

First of all, this patch reminds me of Diablo 3 when it first came out, and Jay Wilson said the END GAME was too easy, so the devs of D3 "doubled it" in the silly rainbow map. Diablo legacy went downhill from that iconic interview moment. Many players never really returned due to the mis-managed expectations.

As much as all criticism will say that the pace was too fast and intimidating, it was what made POE1 a master piece. That's why many players throw moment to buy those packs, because we believe you guys would be different.

You guys know that

NOBODY has time for defense. No raise shield, NOT PARRY! Why would I want to defend and wait for monsters to hit me? The whole point of playing ARPG is to feel overpowered.

If I were to play Defense, I might as well go back to work because GRINDING FEELS LIKE *HIT!

GGG nerfed energy shield, DPS, like all aspects of offense so we can play more defense.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? This is not a basketball game! F*** defense!

This is D3 all over again.

I am 46 years old and still remembers how great D2LOD was. GGG created something greater that when the remaster of D2LOD came out, I didn't even bother to try.

At the very moment, I am so close of believing that GGG has changed when Chris left. I wish I am wrong.
