3 hours until 3.2 bestiality league. Are you ready to become best pokemon master?

Explain.

tfw no tunnel worm bf

It's actually the Bestiary league. You collect pokemon animals and then fight them to craft items.

Well I mean they can't be much like Pokemon if you can't fuck em

So do we get to capture loli /monster/ girls and get to use them as an army?

My advice is to wait for next league. Generally it doesnt look too bad, but still, its not a big expansion. Some class updates look good, some look not so much.
For example assasin got 1 good poison keynode that allows you to stack crazy fucking damage if you build around it, but all the rest of his nodes are shitty and quite lame. And only he can really use poison now because of it.
And elementalist got "golemancer" node which make any other golemancer much worse than elementalist and if you play any other class, you will be worse than elementalist.
They really went away from interesting mechanics to some shitty ones. For example they had "projectiles return to you". Sounds like something that could fucking double damage. But no, you could only dealt damage with one hit per projectile and return was fucking cosmetic. They removed it, but it shows how lame they making them in general. They could do crazy shit with overlapping for aoe skills, instead they got "skill deal 50% more damage of %TYPE%" gems all around.
Instead of making interesting drawbacks which can be exploited and turned to positive they stil have items such as pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Veil_of_the_Night al the way from release of uniqe items which have drawbacks and dont have anything good on them. And on the other hand some crazy items which dont have any. They updatins them little by little, but some items are pure garbage worse than white items.
And now some skills and random stuff can be used only by one class because its much better for it than any other class. And yet templar classes only buffed, which means they can stack 1kk dps and 20k es and be better at everything than anybody.
And jugg was even buffed which is really fucking funny after I played as a jugg. Armor is funny thing. You can facetank every physical damage boss(including chimera, for example) hits without any problem except shaper and elder(on red tier) slams while facetanking everything else in game. At the same time most classes without armor can be hit by 5k damage from tentacles which hit randomly and you cant avoid these hits. At the same time templar can stack es, mana and regen and literally afk kill red elder/shaper.
Also most of new players will struggle to keep their map in stock because their drops are based on the idea that you have to do crazy with for quantity. In the end top players will have jhundreds of maps to run, and poor players will start struggle at mid tier maps.

You cant really play on high level without purchasing 20-40$ worth of stash tabs, game is not p2w but its most certainly p2p.

You dont really need more than that, but its for must have shit. For example without currency tabs you cant be rich because you cant even store your currency. And game runs like shit(better than poe before, worse than grim
dawn by a motherfucking lot).
My advice is to play path of building and grim dawn instead. Making builds in path of building is often more pleasing than playing them. And grim dawn dawn is more casual(not in a bad way) and generally better at everything except amount of content(especially endgame) and build complexity and have somewhat lame skills seriously, some of skills may be as well be named "single target attack №1-10. But if you dont plan on playing more than 100h, grim dawn is better.

tl;rd
Nothing much new in poe, grim dawn is better.

No, but spookymancer got update.

I came into this thread for pokemon bestiality. And the only thing that was shown to me is some stupid diablo clone. Fuck this thread.

How do you fuck something up this badly

Better than when servers were crushing every other minute.

fuck off nigger

...

Argonians are not cold blooded

Here you go user. Have fun. :^)

Aint touching that shit
Pedos use that as a method to share cp

i heard pedos breathe air too, stop doing that right now.

I love to read dumb fucks on Holla Forums

It's fun though. Besides, three of those obviously have pokemon in them.

i just find it really retarded that people would stop using a tool or playing a game because a particular group of people that they hate also use that tool or play that game.

It's shit

I think this is the first league in a long time that I am uninterested in the mechanic.
I think I'm just going to dick around in standard for a couple days and then decide it the new league is worth playing.

what is this halfchan crap? post the goods or forever be a faggot.

...

He's right, only fags self-censor.

Given that I gave the last league a pass, is this a good time to get into things again?

put it in a spoiler or dont post it at all.
if you have to modify the image to past the 4chan censors maybe stop being a fag?

I tend to pick up the game on alternating or every 3 leagues, just to not overplay it

you have piqued my interest

At some point the majority of Holla Forums started to develop a bad trait, they focused less on "STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE" to "STOP LIKING WHAT I LIKE"
As if you liking something they like while also being someone they don't like, invalidates what they like. It's not healthy.

GGG has outdone themselves this time, what a shitshow.

So what are the specifics? How bad is bad? Is there forum salt?

Basically, GGG used league mechanics that go against the design their gotta go fast looting/build game. Attempts to slow player progression and increase retention have backfired and the stream of people saying they are opting out of the league is constant. Seems everyone fucking hates having do a mechanic just like Vorici's most disliked mission constantly, who woulda thought, salt is flowing from everywhere.

Interface is really fucked up as if they never tested it, for example.
And cole league mechanic started working only after a hour after release.
And trapping monsters also fucked up. Sometimes they have only a sliver of hp and you still cant capture them and you waste net and enrage+heal mob instead. And there are shitload of fucking mobs around good mobs for capture so you have to run around from a fucking horde trying to see hp of monster you trying to capture and later comes pure fucking luck to capture him. As if they never tested it.
Yeah, if you have culling strike you will never be able to capture anything good. Slayers can catch only white mobs.

I forgot about the beastcrafting not working for the first hour, and people were so hyped to make those movespeed boots and adrenaline quicksilver flasks. People think the net mechanic has to do with total hp numbers and not a percentage, so a really high hp rare could have a sliver of health and still break nets.

They were going for the Pokemon capture without realizing why Pokemon had certain things. Like capturing pokemon. You wear them down because it's usually a 1v1 sort of deal with no serious pressure to it. To contrast, this is a great deal easier than having to pixel hunt in a giant mob, while killing everything but the big enemy, then whittling down the enemy to capture it. And if you don't capture it, you're on a cool down for 5-10 seconds. This breaks the gameplay up, and now you're just sitting there for a bit, watching the beast break out. And they have the audacity to heal the motherfucker back to 26%. Goddammit ggg.

In Pokemon, capturing just eats your turn, so you could keep throwing pokeballs at something until you caught it. To aid in catching things, status effects would also tip the favor of a successful capture. And to compound that, if your lead pokemon was overleveled, you could just throw a ball at a full health dude and catch it.

The pokeballs weren't designed for a certain level either. All the balls really did in pokemon was influence the catch rate. You could capture the cover pokemon in gen 6 with a pokeball, for example. And there's some pokemon, like Ditto, which are just cunts to catch with any ball short of master ball.

...

And crafting leveling items not worth id scrolls or time besides a couple of items. And the idea that you have to defeat same mod twice to craft something is ridiculous.

Okay, but you could've posted it spoilered in another post.

Fucking assholes. As if grinding the tutorial area over and over for half a day wasn't enough. I'm sticking to standard this league. No meatball master, no play! It was the most fun part of last league for me.

Monsters cannot die while netted, you morons, so net them and then dps with your culling strikes and shit.
Literally in the FAQ.

Bestiary is absolute fucking trash so far. What's funny is I missed the first 2 hours of the league so I didn't get to witness GGGs fuckup at all. Server performance is fine this time though.

Abyss already hinted at GGGs oh so glorious idea of a slower playstyle and noobfriendliness. Now we have even more powercreep and a league mechanic that forces you to kite some shitty overly tanky mob just to fail to catch it numerous times.
I'm glad I transitioned into hardcore for this league. Being cautious and not having the softcore mindset of "how can I get my Headhunter in under a week" is probably the only way I won't just straight up skip the league considering this bullshit mechanic.

The game feigns complexity. In reality Diablo 3 unironically has more viable build variety. The one thing blizzard did right was their philosophy behind classes and subclass specializations.

But with PoE everything is just a fucking mess and the talent tree that appears epic is actually just dude get all the health nodes lmao. Can someone suggest a fun ARPG that is more like diablo 2? PoE is not worthy of being compared to it at all.

Try a less obvious bait next time

It's unfortunately true. PoE takes the paradox of choice to heights never before witnessed in any game before it.

Imagine a game where you spammed more than just 1 ability, a game where uniques actually did something interesting, and you have diablo 3. I don't play D3 nor do I advise anyone plays it even if they already own it just to fuck blizzard over in any way possible, but the reality is that PoE is a really fucking terrible game and only better because it's free.

PoE has a large variety of builds and playstyle that are viable for full post-game content; this is due to the fact that itemization can go to extreme height (both in diversity and powercreeping) and you can basically make everything work with enough currency or advanced knowledge.
D3 drops the ball when it comes to end game content, where the only viable strategy (by design) is to group up monster, use all your "skills" on a big pack (which are nothing more than buff with cooldowns), spam your main attack until your cooldown expire; rince and repeat. Build diversity in D3 is mostly a beginner-trap; let's not even talk about itemization.

you forgot the mention the fact that diablo3 put accent into "gear set" .

the very thing POE staff want to avoid because it hurts variety

Funny you said that because in this update they introduced gear sets, although move interesting and not default variation. And sets existed before, such as emberwake+taming.

that's not a set, that's a synergy between two unique that can be done with other item and skills (like death oath + CI )

set = specific item from a set that you take not for the stats in the item itself but for the bonus it giove (2,3,4,5,6 or even 7 pieces worn)

One cant really be used without the other. If they always go together its a set even if they dont indicate it in game and even if name color is not green.

D2 had dat set bonuses which could appear per item or globally. Shit was cash (but mostly useless)

...

one can't really be used period, emberwake was usable alone before ignite nerfs, now it's just shit, taming was ok before, now it's great.
