Oh and if Chris (ignored) posts some BS about 500 hours of gameplay or whatever.

Hours of playtime is not equal. These games have no ending until you get bored. 500 hours on this is not the same as 40 hours to beat IDK God of War which has massive stories, massive set pieces, characters that were created with motiion caputre, etc. Its not our fault GGG made 99->100 take a month due to low XP.

I'm seething, I'm going to be forced to level to 100 with a new class, new gems, new items and new maps.

I wonder if that incompetent evil bastard Chris will let me play the new FF14 patch first?

Some decent additions I think but nothing really wowed me. Sad we aren't getting at least one new act with more campaign bosses and shit.

REALLY surprised that they are including all of this stuff on the existing server though. Seems odd they wouldn't force a full economy reset like any other time.

Unless I misunderstood???

They are starting a new "league" which is just an economy reset. You can play on "legacy" which will have everything the new league does but you can play your old character but you will be stuck in an economy that has zillions of Divine Orbs and Temporalis' so nothing is worth anything and noone serious will play so trading will be dead. They do it on PoE but the newest content isnt available they are changing that cause Timmy just finished the campaign. In the end most players will do the economy reset so there is shit to trade and people dont have infinite currency.

So huntress (gem)? Makes spectres now?

Specters is a skill gem that lets you summon base monsters as many as your spirit allows, you will want to be a witch to buff them up. Huntress gets an ascendacy that allows players to tame one pet but it keeps its modifiers, so they are already strong.

Looks good, but we'll see how patch notes really shapes things. Looking for stuff like Energy Shield nerfs etc.

Fracturing orbs, depending on their actual drop chance, make crafting a real possibility.

So how would it work? Get a mod you want fractured and then essence/omen & chaos spam?

Is it possible to recombinate and get two fractured mods?

I guess you could fracture a mod and then annul the rest if you need to start over without losing the fracture? Sorry, my poe1 crafting knowledge is very basic to begin with, I just know POE2 crafting sucked dick so I never really tried much.

Wonder if they nerf heralds to the point of only being able to run 1 then you need that chase item to run all 3, would be interesting.

I wasn't paying close enough attention but Johnathan said Heralds wouldn't trigger themselves any longer. They can be pretty numerically strong still but without that feature they won't chain-clear screens.

edit - I'm willing to try some spectre stuff on one character but I'm not blown away. "Look, we reused the art of Kalandra assets" is partial credit at most. A lot of this patch is like that. Huntress, two ascendancies for it and three more ascendancies total with 25 new skills (22 huntress related, summon spectre, summon rhoa, one more) is alright I guess but at this release schedule we're not going to have everyone for along ass time. I'd think the next patch is the rest of the campaign?

Guessing they just make all heralds unable to apply any of the trigger ailments instead of just their own trigger ailment.

Won't lie, I was thinking this exact thing myself.

Someone posted a reddit thing that showed someone that "supposidly" worked at GGG complaining about how much of a shit show things had become when they started pushing POE 2. Probably pure BS, but it would explain a lot.
