This Friday, the league’s latest Path of Exile expedition begins. From the very beginning, the developers of Grinding Gear Games claimed that this alliance would change the "meta" of the path of exile, and hoped to greatly weaken it. They detailed the disclosure process, but they did move forward at full speed in the balance manifesto (longest) and patch notes.

In general, games are difficult in all aspects, and this usually involves removing "interesting" interactions and mechanics. Honestly, don't you know where to start? Guess the nectar in the next patch, players will definitely run out of nectar more than ever. Comprehensive support gems increase mana for additional skills. Trigger skills such as "cast on critical strike" and "cast on damage" consume nectar. This change has increased the damage reduction of all damage-based auxiliary skills in the game range, so if you check the patch notes and notice that the damage counts of many main skills have increased, please note that it will be offset. Auxiliary gem neuropathy.

The utility bottle is another victim of this patch and has been reduced to its previous strength. So far, Path of Exile has suffered from the so-called "flask project": more advanced players can mix and match 12345 almost every four seconds, because their POE Currency can kill monsters very quickly and 100% of the bottle running time . In order to solve this problem, the bottle was completely weakened. In many cases, execution time has been reduced, and the effectiveness of many modules has been limited.

GGG has stated that they want to slow down the game, and the previous league "Ultimatum" was too rewarding, so it lost the player retention rate. They did increase the speed of movement in almost every possible way, but I worry that the expedition team’s retention rate will also be poor, because players will get frustrated prematurely. I'm really happy to see what the numbers in this league look like, because the voice of the fans of Path of Exile is very upset. POE Currency Buy may be the fastest way for them to win.
