3.21 Destroys my character

[Dr. Electrocutioner]

I will lose:
25% mana reservation on Grace
25% mana reservation on Determination
25% mana reservation on Discipline
17% chaos resistance
15% to all elemental resistances
20% fire DOT multiplier.

All that gone because of the passive tree mastery changes.

Only positive thing about it is that they made the decision to quit so easy for me.

[Doctrine Dark]

That and the nerfs this time around are fairly serious.

[[STD]Random Lead]

Judging by the numbers you just posted it sounds like much needed nerfs.

[Dr. Electrocutioner]

They are taking away the best 2 nodes on the tree for chaos and elemental resistance.

I think there is only 121% chaos resistance on the whole passive tree, which gives you 61% after the double hit from Kitava. 17% of that is being removed.

15% to all elemental resistance is also the single best node for that in the whole tree.

I bet a lot of people make use of the improved reservation efficiency for Grace and Determination.

[Calamity Heart]

The removal of those reservation masteries sounded really bad at first until I saw the Mana Mastery has a new option to give +12% efficiency across the board. That probably doesn't make up entirely for the efficiency loss, even if you run a ton of auras for insane value on that singular node, but it does cushion the blow and free up a few passive points that could be put toward either something else beneficial, or something that could make up for the rest of that efficiency loss.

I dunno, remains to be seen. And I'm not enough of a math whiz to work it all out myself. But it does look as though there might be some adjusting pains for aura stackers.

Losing mastery resistances is just losing a crutch, really. Ideally, I want enough resistance on my gear that I don't have to waste too many points unnecessarily doing so on the tree.

You complain about nerfed resistances on tree? I play poe for a long time and had many many different builds and not a single one needs any resistances on tree. Sure while leveling you might take a few nodes which will always be replaced. Everything else you complain will much better with new skill tree for weapons. You lose nothing, you gain a lot but hey its time to quit.

"you lose nothing, you gain a lot" lol

I mean we all noticed you're a big fan, but are you that blind?

sure the nerfs and losses aren't that much of a problem for an experienced player, we can do with those as we always did, but its not like we "lose nothing", we have to adapt for the losses.

and if your many different builds didn't need or use those masteries.. well good for you, they were there to be used, using that kind of example doesn't make the losses invalid for no one but yourself.

anyway OP, if you think its better for you to quit you can quit, but at least check streamers and more experienced people, they will show you an alternative way if you want to hear.

edit: OP, when you post critics here you might be answered by big fans who will diminish your problems and find a way to say the game is fine/better. I recommend you to ignore those, since they can't handle someone saying bad things about their game, and won't be willing to help you.

p.s.: don't be mad 🤡 you know giving me the awards you have won't make you free of them hahahaha

who cares? everyone is starting new on league start anyways. . .

new weapon passives will more than make up for any passive tree losses.

Oh no, they are changing the current build meta, how could they dare

[Hakimoto]

Well, maybe Help Alira in Act 2 for the 15 percent res and whatever else it is. Cause those two points might not be as useful as her buff.

While thats nice, it forces you to take mana nodes, which is pretty much a waste of points when you already reserve more than 90% of your mana, even more when you use Eldritch Battery, which a lot of builds do to help with mana issues that cant be fixed with mana nodes because at most you get like 10-20 mana at that point

[BYEBUYBOZO]

cool, as it should. there is no reason to keep every build viable for future leagues. if it get nerfed move on make a new one

[kadlore]

if you don't want change, why play poe? Go play a game who doesn't evolve.

"Our balance goals with 3.21 are to provide more options and more fun for as many builds as possible, rather than reworking game systems in potentially disruptive ways. While there are of course some small nerfs, 3.21 is most definitely not a nerf-fest."

Crucible patch notes -> Nerf fest LMAO

without nerfing the broken how are you going to provide more options without making the gaming One shotting simulator , ofc they are gonna nerf things , if they buff the others then everything will be broken which will make the game less fun and way too fast paced. also this aint a nerf fest at all, just because they just made adjustments towards ( no brainer options such like onslaught etc ) does not make it nerf fest , sanctum and kalandra was 20x more of a nerf fest. cringe take.
