    GGG, when you nerf Spectral Shield Throw, please try not to kill the other variants of it, some people (including me) have been waiting a long time for this skill to be good

    Posted: 06 Aug 2021 07:16 AM PDT

    I totally understand that this skill scales too easily in combination with Gladiator's bonuses while wielding a shield.

    But some of us are investing really hard into making it work in other classes, sometimes even completely foregoing block (Raider cold SST for example), and/or investing a lot in crit (which is super hard, most bonuses don't work)

    Just a thought, I would be really sad if they simply reverted to when it was unusable.

    On a side note, can we get a way to scale the projectile width? Maybe shield bases could have "weapon" range, the projectile is really frigging hard to hit sometimes

    Gwennen Search String Generator

    Posted: 06 Aug 2021 05:08 AM PDT

    https://xanthics.github.io/poe_gen_gwennen/

    Example: How it looks - Note the " in the string are important.

    Here is a tool I've been working on to generate compact Search Strings for Gwennen. Prices are pulled from poe.ninja, with the last update time at the top. Simple filtering is possible by adjusting the chaos value, and the Select All Visible Only button will behave as described, selecting visible rows and unselecting hidden rows.

    Every base that should be able to appear on Gwennen, including implicits and other words that can highlight an item, is broken down in to all non-common ngrams of length 1 to word length. Once you make a selection with the checkboxes and click Generate String a webworker will be started to bruteforce the shortest possible simple search string(s). It does this by removing all of the bad ngrams from the chosen bases, checking if any of the chosen bases share a short ngram, and then building as few search strings as possible.

    This project runs about 4x faster on Chrome(~1.5s) vs Firefox(7-8s) for whatever reason. As an FYI.

    Uniques that are assumed unobtainable, EG Blight encounter only or corrupted jewel outcomes, are listed in this file.

    Low diversity and over-nerf will never end if GGG don't improve the mechanics

    Posted: 05 Aug 2021 04:20 PM PDT

    This text was originally post on the Taiwanese forum Bahamut, POE sub-forum.

    Since the text got some upvotes, friends on Bahamut suggested me to post it on POE official forum, they said GGG will never read or reply any post on Bahamut, they don't care about the opinions from our community.

    After I post it on official forum, people from official forum suggested me to post it on reddit, they said GGG will never read or reply any post on "Feedback and Suggestions", but they do reply post on reddit. LUL, maybe GGG don't read any feedback this league?

    Anyway, well that's why we are here now.

    I had a long discussion with my friends in Bahamut, and I turn our discussion and conclusion into a Q&A form, to make every point clear.

    ​

    Q1.What's wrong with 3.15?

    A:

    1.70% people concentrated in 4 or 5 ascendancy classes, the diversity of builds is dead.

    2.Over-nerf, make a lot of build not playable anymore.

    Q2.Why nerfing top tier builds leads to lack of diversity?

    A: The core content and bosses' mechanics are unfriendly to melee builds, and some bosses have unpredictable patterns that is hard to defeat through practice, so the best strategy of doing all content is to build a long ranged build with 20M dps, so you don't need to suffer the pain that only for melee builds or some bosses' RNG patterns.

    No matter what GGG nerfed and what patch changed, if the core mechanics are not changed, the top goal of every league is to build a long ranged, 20M dps build, that's the best solution of every league.

    So, since GGG nerfed every thing and not changing the core mechanics, the choice for players becomes fewer and fewer.

    For an example, the redeemer's pattern is very very bad for melee builds, melee players can't do anything when she's standing in her storm, meantime ranged build can do damage to her, so the time wasted on the redeemer is sadly meaningless punishment for every melee players.

    The shotgun from the crusader is another torture, since we can't tell the signs of his skills, we need to move every time when he raised his hand. While ranged builds can still deal damage wherever they are, melee builds deal 0 damage when they are forced to move from the target.

    When my melee build can only do 200K dps, the boss fight of the crusader is so slow and painful, most of the time I'm jumping in the room dodging the attack patterns like a tortured monkey, while knowing a 200K dps ranged build can do much better and easier.

    I think players CAN endure some pain as part of game progression, but playing melee builds gives you unnecessary pain, without any reward.

    **If GGG don't want to improve the mechanics about core content, people will find another T1 build after nerf, again and again.**All GGG knows is nerf nerf nerf.And the more GGG nerf, the less choice people have, and the situation will get worse.

    The point is not about nerf, is to give us enough reasonable mechanics and practicable patterns about boss fight, so people may be more willing to choose non-T1 builds.

    Q3.What about over-nerf?

    A:I do support GGG to nerf things that is too op, maybe every build that can do over 100M dps should be nerf.Any build that can deal great damage with cheap gear should be nerf.Any build that can be almost immortal should be nerf.

    But, nerf a build is not meaning we can't see this build ANYMORE.

    Some times GGG nerf a build so hard, you can't even see a nerfed version of it, it is no longer EXIST anymore.

    That's not nerf, that's DELETE.

    Creating a new, reasonable and sound build is hard, it needs a lot of effort testing, collecting items, calculating, balancing... Sometimes it is not just a build, it is an ART.

    And GGG DESTROY a lot of these art by permanently over-nerf them.

    Sure we can still find another build, develop a new content, still play effectively, hitting end game, keep MOVE ON. But some builds give you special experience that other builds can't, and GGG just kill them forever. You can't even try a nerfed version, it's permanently dead.

    For example, remember CI trickster coc discharge? It is so simple, so balanced between dmg and def, like the art of the Ancient Romans, using a lot of mechanics which were new at that time, it's beautiful.

    And suddenly, poof, no more CI coc discharge anymore, RIP. You can't even kiss goodbye.

    Another example, c9q9md aka eirikeiken, is the most outstanding avant-garde artists in POE ever, and all his works are burned into ashes by GGG.

    That's what I called over-nerf.

    Not only over-nerf is unnecessary destroying a mechanic or a build, it emotionally hurts player community a lot, especially for fans of certain builds.

    And for years, a lot of players, our friends and comrades, actually left this game because their favorite build was DELETE by GGG.So what GGG's doing is leaving players with fewer choices and emotionally hurting the player community. Both are rude and toxic. That's why so many players are so pissed off.

    And this time, the nerf the most favorite, popular and iconic mechanic in POE, cast on crit. Maybe 20% to 30% of the loss of players is due to COC, who knows.

    This text got 270+ upvote in Bahamut's POE sub-forum, many people asked me to translate it to official forum, so I did.

    sorry for the text wall above, thanks for watching

    How am I supposed to see Maven's HIGHLY DAMAGING chill ground? It's literally the same as regular map's chill ground visually and I think it even goes under it (so map chill ground has priority of vision as I understand)

    SSF has made me enjoy "THE GAME", instead of "The TRADE"

    Posted: 06 Aug 2021 01:27 PM PDT

    I have no self control it seems. I aim to start a character and just use whatever gear I have in the stash and find upgrades as I go...but instead I am spending all my time looking at PoeTrade and trading to find that PERFECT piece of gear..

    What has this lead to? I don't know how to use all the currency and mechanics to even try and gear my characters up by myself. The constant power search has lead me to spend most of my limited playtime (I am a casual at best) playing auctionhouse games instead of actually playing the damn game. I am even guilty of "acquiring" currency from outside the game so I can get better gear or spend 600 Fusings trying to 6 link a chest (seriously...do people REALLY have this much currency or is buying stuff outside of the game WAY more common than people admit?).

    So..I went to SSF to force myself to stop all these silly behaviours. I am LOVING IT. My character Sucks if you want to compare it to what it could be in the regular league...but that's not the point. The point is I am making decisions based on what I find and can make...with ZERO possibility of allowing myself to cheat and twink out my character.

    So, the only real reason to share my story is this - if you are not enjoying the game as much as you used to (and by the content in these forums, that's a lot of you - Salty buggers! :) then give SSF a try and slow the whole thing down. Will you do the top end contact like you had TNT strapped to your fists? probably not...but maybe...and who cares? The only thing you will be chasing is RNG and what you can get by yourself.
