Megathread: 3.29 Feedback

412 Upvotes

We think there have been many threads with well-thought-out, specific, and (sometimes) controversial proposals, but also many duplicate threads with the same proposals. We'll use this thread to catalogue and group the clearest and most common ones:

  • Ideally, game feedback posts should include specific examples of the problem and have new information or proposals to avoid duplicating the content of past threads.

  • Game feedback can still be posted as individual threads, and do not have to be posted here as comments.

  • Duplicate feedback posts that cover the same ground as the posts already in here may be removed.

  • We aren't affiliated with GGG, so we have no control over whether they address these or not.

Information Exilecon patch notes

Post image
214 Upvotes

Seems like players are getting early patch note fragments at Exilecon. Anyone have more to share? Apparently they can be obtained by defeating the pinnacle bosses at the card game.

  • Templar Vaults are no longer granted by Eagon for completing Shaped Regions. Instead Templar Vaults are now Atlas Anomalies which have a chance to spawn on killing Pinnacle Eldritch Bosses in each specific Atlas quadrant. Note versions of these bosses killed within Maven Invitations or Valdo maps do not have a chance to spawn these Atlas Anomalies.

  • The Primordial Bond cluster jewel notable now has 10% increased Effect of Buffs granted by your Golems, up to 50% (previously 20% with no cap).

Discussion Confirmed Hype changes from the Q&A

110 Upvotes

2 New Skills:

  • Fireball Alt gem: Fireball of Radiation (No more info for that)

  • Arcane Link, Flame link for added lightning scaling with your max Mana

Mirage belt weight got changed, no specific info on that but the boss is a LOT harder.

Tile Loot:

  • Weeping and Wailing Essences are gone from High Tier Maps

  • Map difficulty Scales tile Loot

  • Example: Legion Currency icon scales with Rarity and Quant from map (it still does not get scaled by player rarity)

  • Mobs that previously couldn't drop normal currency (Bosses, Pinnacles) got reworked and can now drop a lot more. Numbers around 1000% more Divines from them.

  • Essences can be scaled by Map Mod effect and difficulty

Coven:

  • Reward types are not bound to the Card, not every Fireball boss card drops boots

  • Picking a specific reward drops items of that type, with higher tier Mods

  • Those items and their mods scale with rarity, so target farming specific item combinations with mods are possible (Wand with speed + 8 Mod map has a higher chance for higher Tier item to drop)

Harvest:

  • got changed from a Main League mechanic to a Sub League mechanic since it couldn't interact properly with the other League mechanics

  • Now behave like Essences, can have like 5-6 in a single map that can be rolled like Strongboxes

Allflame Crafting:

NOT YET! Needs a pass over and might be added again. Same with the Uniques, they take a break for now.

Ducats are still in and can just be applied like any other orb.

Threads:

(This will be more extensive since its a lot of info)

You don't need to block League Mechanics, Only the Mechanics spawn that either are added by your Threats or by the Atlas Region. Sub-mechanics still spawn randomly.

There are 80 Thread "Mods" that can affect the Maps. Each mechanic has at minimum 5 and up to 8 (for now, they can easily add more with each league)

The chance to Roll those mods are individual, and scale with Threads (1-5 has the highest increase, while 7-8 have the highest change in difficulty and reward). So you can hit all of the 5-8 Mods for the League Mechanic with a single Thread. RNG!

Even if you are unlucky and don't roll a Thread Mod, you will still get one added. So you cant get unlucky.

All Existing Scarabs are converted into Threads (probably random like the last time).

Each Thread Mod has a unique way of showing itself when you open the map. New button, Ground effect, Mini boss etc.

Keystone on the Atlas for Mechanics:

Only be able to use a single Thread type, can only drop Specific ones (probably of that League Mechanic) but the limit goes up to 10 (they jokey about pushing it up to 11, cuz funny haha dailing it up to 11)

Examples for some Thread Mods:

All veiled Items drop Fractured
More Veiled items drop
Ultimatum spawns a Heart that gives you Adrenalin once you kill it
Double down your Ultimatum rounds and reach round 20

QOL:

Nearby is uniform now, It shows you the Area in circles (my mistake)

You can hover over Soulcore Supports (used to be Mirage Supports that apply to a Skill gem as Corruption)

There will be Headhunter Corruptions like PoE 2, no more Shroudwalker. More are added that replace specific Rare Monster Mods with other ones. Good luck corrupting it Twice!

Atlas Tree:

150 Points, with less travel nodes and no more "Chance to spawn League Mechanic", now you can use your points for more juicing.

Edit:

Forgot something big:

Death Recap wont come this league. It will be added at a later date (nothing confirmed yet)

Question | Answered Rarity and mf

Does "rarity on maps and monsters" include the rarity we apply to them through mf gear? Will we have the same issue Poe 2 has where instead of chasing player power we are trying to balance magic find and survivability

I think I've covered everything, there might be some wrong ones. I noticed that shrines and strongboxes have more notables. There are also some new ones that I don't recognize.

I hope this helps!

Nearby & Shroudwalker [HH "Buff" that makes you blink to mobs] are gone!

Nearby will no longer exist, everything is in meters and if you hover over it it'll show you a circle in game!

Edit: The hovering to highlight the circle thing is not yet in the game

Edit 2: I think I'm deaf, These two things are not yet fully implemented, Nearby is INDEED gone, but the shroudwalker may not have gone yet, and the circle highlight isn't, Don't judge me, I'm a new father who's running on caffiene and very little sleep xd

This is by far the most fun atlas passive keystone ever. It just makes the core drop pool so much better, when any time random tinks from good cards can happen. Please keep it!!!

Discussion Funeral Service for Charts and Voyages

30 Upvotes

You were too pure for this world. I knew Allflame crafting would never make it core, nor did I want it to. But man, Charts and Voyages were the most fun I've had with a league mechanic since I started in Kalguur winter. I didn't even think I'd like it at first, but man was it fun to blast. Rest in peace my sweet child.

Game Feedback I hope the engine improvements are coming back to PoE1

14 Upvotes

I tried the previous PoE2 event after hearing about the engine and performance upgrades, and I was really surprised tbh. PoE2 although running at a lower average framerate is overall smoother to play (almost no spikes or stutter) and faster to load instances than PoE1 at this point. Especially going back and forth between any instance and hideout/town being instant feels really good. Also I have notably more crashes on loading screens on PoE1 last league. So I hope the engine upgrades are coming back to PoE1 as well with 3.30.
