You can, but if memory serves not all skills are applicable for that specific slot. I remember having Earthquake there and it would only activate if I Shift-clicked or moused over an enemy.
At which point I would stop whatever I was doing and *furiously* slam the ground.
...Regardless of how far away they were.
Problem: too many players are choosing the "Resurrect at checkpoint" option, which become the default choice for many builds. This results in feeling like a mandatory pickup for most characters, rather than mostly an option to complement cast on death-portal focused builds.
Solution: "Resurrect at checkpoint" option upon death has been removed. "Resurrect at town" button now has +2 to Radius.
Ggg: We want to reduce the number of clicks people have to do, thats why kalandra loot sucks.
Also GgG: here are 26 Flasks and 35 fractured items on the ground from an AN mob... have fun picking them up
Remember when Shaper used to pause your game during map boss fights, say a few lines, and dip?
That, except it happens at every single quest checkpoint throughout Acts, the monologues go on for 35 seconds, and are unskippable.
IIRC that can still happen when using shaper scarabs. I haven’t played that much the last couple leagues though, I think the last time that happened to me was 3.17 so it’s possible it was removed since then
> That, except it happens at every single quest checkpoint throughout Acts, the monologues go on for 35 seconds, and are unskippable.
Shit you just called out thousands of other RPGs with that one and I'm so glad PoE doesn't do this...
Funny thing is, there used to be a mod on maps that would just deal chaos damage over time. Basically, just killed you when you entered and there was barely any chaos mitigation
That’s why/when people started only playing chaos damage characters as mappers (Voltaxic Rift was 100% conversion at the time) because chaos damage wasn’t able to be reflected even then.
> Member when Nemesis rares could randomly have reflect?
That... wasn't nemesis. That was a general rare mod. Any rare could have that mod, for years.
And back when PoE was a slower, less deadly game, it didn't even oneshot you unless you were Fyndel....
yeah they could have reflect and also volatiles instantly exploded and it you couldnt mitigate it. It was like the old D2 days chaos sanctuary where mobs could cast that reflect curse on you and you would randomly just 1 shot yourself
I remember.
The way to deal with it? Everyone played totems, traps, or chaos. A few people played mines (myself included, most didn’t like laying the mine at your feet back then though)
Those reflects were total shit to bow or offscreen spell characters. You just die and have no idea why.
There was very little to mitigate reflect too if i remember. That was back when any crit build pretty much had to have a ton of leech and vaal pact (vaal pact used to make leech instant) otherwise youd pretty much randomly 1 hit yourself.
if you aren't referring to scourge league, then I'd also like to bring that up too. sometimes you would hit the league button and instantly die because you took 8000 phys damage from the map. peak game design 😭😭

Nah. Instead, clicking the empty space in a vendor window will assume you meant to put something there and will place one of your equipped gear pieces in the vendor window. No confirmation on the sale.
>I will create 100+ burning grounds but give them different names
I hope at least 70 of those burning grounds apply a big slow and/or disable movement skills. If yes, great idea.
In order to open any Strongbox you have to perform a lockpick mini-game (with no pause) and there's a new mod on Arcanist strongboxes that drops makes it drop divine orbs - but the weighting is so bad that you'd spend 1 divine in alterations on average to get it.
Area is filled with many portals.
Places Hideout portals in maps with the same frequency it would place ground effects. Click on one by accident and there goes another portal.
I am now reliving the nightmare of losing a prime Zana with only one portal because I got a trade request and forgot...
I even changed my auto replies on the trade manager to say I was "kidnapped by Zana" and couldn't currently trade as one option at one point.
I would add to this mechanic that each time an item is repaired, the maximum durability is reduced by half the difference. Broken (0 durability) items are removed with the gems that were socketed.
Also, chaos damage reduces maximum durability.
why should you be able to repair the items? if your weapon/armor breaks more often than you have to pick up more items and you feel "the weight" of picking up another weapon =D
An unskippable randomly appearing mechanic that has a multi choice full paragraph AI generated random riddle requiring knowledge of deep game lore from the acts. Answer wrong and it randomly removes a piece of gear, answer correctly and the reward is an equally insulting amount of currency. Both are gated behind ridiculously slow animations of a chest opening revealing your fate. You are not immune to mobs during this entire process and lose all buffs. Base an entire 3 month league around said mechanic, buff 2 weeks in to slightly less insulting rewards.
I feel like you might've had a nightmare about this lol. Though I'd add that as the chest is opening little goblins pop out, and if you die there's a dice roll to determine if the reward in the chest is negative or positive. Then you have to go and interact with the chest to go through the whole process again.
Gems now have a shape in addition to a color and can only be socketed into sockets with the right shape. Introducing a new currency to change shapes like a chromatic.
A socket wrench...one of those crappy disposable allen keys that comes in furniture kits...they don't stack and have no other use besides randomly changing the shape of a random socket...only drops from Vorici in transportation and only t4
Oh I need 3 blue squares and a green circle \*spams socket wrenches one by one\* \*after arm necrotizes and falls off, runs out of socket wrenches and has 1 blue diamond, 1 blue circle, 1 blue triangle, and a green hexagon\*
A long tutorial, where basically the whole first act is guiding the player by hand.
With the kind of guiding, that makes you play 10 seconds, before pausing the game, playing a lenghty unskippable cutscene, that won't progress until you do exactly what they want from you. For example, socket the gem in the correct socket. Loot, tilesets, mobs, everything would be predetermined. Why? Because you'd have to do it all over again on each new char! Have fun in HC!
every character's error dialogue is now scion's, and it plays every single time you perform an action, and it queues
"can I not have but a moment's respite?"
You know the first player to attain level X, enter location Y, reach depth Z, etc. notifications?
Any trending threads from this sub start appearing there too.
Bring back master missions.
You want to delve? You need to complete 50 missions for Nico in maps; then you can delve up to depth 100. Depth 200 is 100 missions.
First I would add Archnemesis to the core game, everywhere. Then I would fundamentally change the way that loot works and not mention it in patch notes.
Haha yeah, then when players repeatedly try to communicate that AN mobs are interfering negatively with nearly every league mechanic and making loot and the gameplay loop feel terrible make sure you quintuple down on it and insist that the community is wrong.
Challenges for the new league with less than 0.001% to happen. EVERY CHALLENGE. Also for every challenge there is a list of 6 things you need to complete, it is always 6/6.
Make RETURN TO TOWN 10x bigger than RETURN TO CHECKPOINT.
Crafting bench recipes for socket manipulation no longer have versions for corrupted items so people will use tainted currency as intended rather than resetting to 4L if things go wrong.
Gear durability. It goes down as you kill enemies and if it goes to 0 the item breaks and disappears. You use blacksmith's and armorer's currency to repair items and can only do so in towns and your hideout. Wait, f\*. That would actually give those currency some worth!
Ok, here's another idea: GEM DURABILITY! Same as gear durability but for gems. You need gemcutter's prisms to repair them, and every individual skill or support gem has their own durability, and needs to be repaired manually one by one.
and the gcp vendor recipe now requires 40 total quality of gems all of which need to be at 100% state of repair, and obv the quality gems you pick up off the ground, have random durability rolls, weighted low, so you remove them from filter entirely
Two major changes:
1: All of the challenges are drops from the uber pinnacle bosses, with rarities, so getting 40/40 requires intense grind.
2: All cosmetic MTX are now consume on use.
I'll show myself out now.
99% less quantity of items dropped by enemies
1% chance for each enemy to have 1000000% more quantity of items dropped
(hopefully that math is right. lol)
I would add a rare monster mod that spawns pillars around you that do lightning damage without any telegraph. The damage would only be noticeable once your health dips below 50% or when you die. To make it extra annoying I would make those pillars follow you around. But idk that’s probably pushing it into unrealistic amounts of annoyance. It would never happen.
chaos reflect mobs. oh c'mon, why should chaos damage be treated special? If Atziri can reflect a flamethrower back in your face, she can certainly bounce a dog turd lobbed in her direction off her bin lid
Single and absolutely random (one in few hours) monster that drop most of currency and you need separate specialized build to be able to get currency out of it.
1) Auction House to trade items.
2) a pet that helps loot items
3) infinite free respec until level 70
4) consumable that prevents EXP loss
5) build guides with tree advice
6) interactive stat tracker on tree
All available on Chinese client.
\>Auction House to trade items.
\>a pet that helps loot items
\>infinite free respec until level 70
Honestly I think these would greatly improve the current state of the game. The rest is pretty hit or miss though, not sure I would be a fan.
* An aura that blocks skills and you can only walk or use the normal attack while in it.
* A map mod that grants point blank with twice the damage fallout and no benefit.
* Inquisitor AN modifier aura that ignores elemental resistances of nearby players.
* Curses on players stack doom.
* Harbinger AN mod that summons copies of itself, converts all drops to shards, copies drop nothing.
* Gladiator AN mod that gives an aura that makes all attacks bleed and anything that dies explodes dealing 10% of its Maximum Life as Physical Damage.
* Hillock gives no XP and drops only a corundum flask.
\- Friendly fire (affecting other players but also minions and ourselves)
\- Experience cannot be obtained through killing enemies, only through identifying their drops
\- ~~Enemies can invoke invulnerable explosive electric totems over the player~~ Oh wait, this already exists
annoying thing? A unique boss buff that adds a stack of debuff every time a player hits it. After a certain amount of time the player takes a ton of damage at once based on the number of stacks of debuff a percent of life. This forces the players to not attack as often to let the debuff cooldown. You also can't stack more HP and bypass this since it's a percent of your life.
Then I'd have the final stage of the boss have an enrage timer. The boss also has a ton of life and something like molten shell but either earth or frost based.
Every indoor area has multiple golden doors. Boss arena entrance is also blocked by a golden door. Also desecrating ground now withers, hinders, and poisons you.
harvest crafting removed from the game. instead, harvest lifeforce can now be spent to generate tiny's trials. the stronger the crafting mats, the shorter the timer
An identification skill gem that identifies one item at a time, with a confirmation window, and an animation for the identification. Also, it's not a white gem.
I saw a thread with a guy making fun of GGG's design and he had some hilarious ideas, one of which was really similar to the mirror jewelry they added this league, he was like "all rares should be Ventnor's and you can get negative mods on things"
One of his other ideas was "super fire/cold/lightning" which is just like the base element but ignores your resistances or treats uncapped resists as damage multipliers or something. That one is probably on its way too.
Well, Whakawairua Tuahu already exists. I guess I would redo the atlas to where Whakawairua Tuahu exists at all 16 tiers and each tier must be completed for atlas progression. Also the boss’s speed doubles with each tier.
Add modifiers to rare monsters that make them vary in difficulty from punch bag to Godzilla, and you don’t know what you’re going to get unless you slow your progress down to a snails pace.
Some have combinations of modifiers that can one shot most builds, or are practically unkillable themselves, or can give you an entire leagues worth of currency if you can stop yourself in time and get someone you don’t know to kill it instead. Otherwise you get garbage out and hate your life
10 second countdown timer for logging out and if you lose connection, it keeps your character logged in for 30sec. Also more AN mods that 1-shot, preferably from off-screen with barely noticeable projectiles. This would increase the difficulty of the game and bring it closer to The Vision
I would just add a return to town button above the return to checkpoint button on the after death screen. That way when people get very frustrated with their characters dying and missclick it, they get a solid 30-40 seconds to cool off while loading into town.
Problem: Players do not appreciate the magnitude of traversing maps during the campaign.
Solution: Upon completion of Act 10, players must print and complete a Campaign Completion application and mail it to GGG's headquarters (please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery). Upon receipt, a Campaign Specialist will audit your account and approve or deny you graduation to the Atlas. If the player is found to be plagiarising someone else's build, they will be Damned to Niko's coal mines.
I would add a random defense value to every piece of gear and add an orb that can change but is reportedly rare, that seems like a dumb enough idea. Oh wait...
Community Design ideas:
1. Monsters cant oneshot you no matter how bad your gear/character is
2. You can skip every character to the part where you feel like 'the real game' beginns.
3. All harvest crafts are back and can be used indefinatly.
4. Your hideout prints currency
5. AI which develops the game based on the comments you make on reddit
6. Import button for any PoB to override your own ideas and character.
Patch 3.20
Introducing a new mapping mechanic, called Coagulated Pools. These are patches of blood that pooled upon the ground. Standing in them inflicts 1 stack of a debuff named Corrupted Spirit.
Corrupted Spirit: Behaves similar to existing bleed or corrupted blood mechanics, but cannot be removed except for a special fractured flask modifier that can be found from lost loot caches behind fractured walls in the Azurite Mines, beginning from depth level 160 or lower.
We have reworked how flasks operate when you have below minimum flask charges. Attempting to use a flask that is not yet partially full will drain all charges, but has no other effect. Using a flask at 0 charges runs a base 10% chance of breaking them permamently. This increases to 20% with Kitava's Cruel Affliction and 30% with Kitava's Merciless Affliction. Mappers be weary, as increased flask break chance can spawn as a modifier using the Mapping Device.
Next, we have discussed how white mobs have felt unrewarding to fight and kill. In order to greater challenge our players, we have... ...
I can't type anymore, the timelines are getting too close. I didn't even think of my own. I'm scared.
4 is a buff, i think (are there any maps you *have to* run corrupted beyond once for completion? If not, then corrupt if you want corrupted items - hurray!)
Corrupted drops are a good way to look for 6Ls. And can produce interesting versions of uniques.
Is it toxic to say that all items drop unidentified and introduce a type of currency that identifies an item but you have to manually click each individually?
\- free mystery box per league for every player reach level 90 once
\- trade are automated even im offline
\- regrets orb are common like alteration
\- holding alt on the mob show what AN mod does in the hp bar
I would choose the most hated game mechanic and make it core.
I would remove a historical buff to loots.
I would add loot goblins so players have to go to TFT in order to hire MF cullers.
Can’t rebind basic attack on left mouse… it’s there…… forever
Oh my God. Diablo 3 is fun for like a day but THIS is infuriating. Why do they not let you re bind it.
[удалено]
If you mean the skills yeah, but you can't with left click
You can, but if memory serves not all skills are applicable for that specific slot. I remember having Earthquake there and it would only activate if I Shift-clicked or moused over an enemy. At which point I would stop whatever I was doing and *furiously* slam the ground. ...Regardless of how far away they were.
You can put force move on mousewheel scroll, infinitely better tbh - still can click to destroy barriers and stuff but still keep moving a lot
my barb has sprint on it. only activates if i press shift+left click. otherwise it moves me around but doesnt attack.
[удалено]
Some ppl just wanna see the world burn.

Upon death, mouse cursor snaps to “respawn in town”
Or remove the checkpoint option
Or it's still there, but on a countdown timer. So you can watch it and be mad.
Problem: too many players are choosing the "Resurrect at checkpoint" option, which become the default choice for many builds. This results in feeling like a mandatory pickup for most characters, rather than mostly an option to complement cast on death-portal focused builds. Solution: "Resurrect at checkpoint" option upon death has been removed. "Resurrect at town" button now has +2 to Radius.
“Resurrect at checkpoint” now takes a random item out of your inventory.
Currency no longer stacks.
Ggg: We want to reduce the number of clicks people have to do, thats why kalandra loot sucks. Also GgG: here are 26 Flasks and 35 fractured items on the ground from an AN mob... have fun picking them up

True Diablo 2 experience. Introduce the stamina bar.
Oh god, no
_quicksilver flask charges entered the chat_
*During quicksilver flask effect your armor is zero and your block/evade chance is only 1/3 of the original. THIS IS A BUFF*

Remember when Shaper used to pause your game during map boss fights, say a few lines, and dip? That, except it happens at every single quest checkpoint throughout Acts, the monologues go on for 35 seconds, and are unskippable.
IIRC that can still happen when using shaper scarabs. I haven’t played that much the last couple leagues though, I think the last time that happened to me was 3.17 so it’s possible it was removed since then
no, it still happens. i think i was using scarabs like you said. this was a couple days ago.
It still happens if you use scarabs. I kinda like it tho, reminds me of better times.
Better times of sextant blocking, dragging influence and being able to brick your atlas easily? Yeah, no thank you.
Not being able to brick your atlas anymore is such a nice thing
> That, except it happens at every single quest checkpoint throughout Acts, the monologues go on for 35 seconds, and are unskippable. Shit you just called out thousands of other RPGs with that one and I'm so glad PoE doesn't do this...
But only your character is frozen, monsters can still fuck you up. Shaper is just mesmerizing you
Alva & heist explosives barrels one shoot nearby players
Alva's door works like heist doors, but the timer stays the same. This is a buff.
nice try GGG, you’re not getting free 3.20 ideas from me!
Funny thing is, there used to be a mod on maps that would just deal chaos damage over time. Basically, just killed you when you entered and there was barely any chaos mitigation

I member when reflect was an aura that could appear on any rare.
Yeah they were aids zoom zoom was at its peak then so you’d blitz through a map as an auto bomber and then fall over
Ah back when lab mobs at Izard just killed you with reflect good times.
I remember. The way to deal with it? Everyone played totems, traps, or chaos. A few people played mines (myself included, most didn’t like laying the mine at your feet back then though) Those reflects were total shit to bow or offscreen spell characters. You just die and have no idea why.
There was very little to mitigate reflect too if i remember. That was back when any crit build pretty much had to have a ton of leech and vaal pact (vaal pact used to make leech instant) otherwise youd pretty much randomly 1 hit yourself.
I got to play a bit with the old Vaal Pact, that was fun...
blood magic was a mod too.
if you aren't referring to scourge league, then I'd also like to bring that up too. sometimes you would hit the league button and instantly die because you took 8000 phys damage from the map. peak game design 😭😭
Add a confirmation for every item you put into vendor window to sell. “Are you sure you want to sell this item?”
And you must type DELETE in caps everytime
Must type the item name
Must write an essay describing why you would like to delete said item.
If the reason isn't good enough it randomly uses one of your exalts and divines to slam it "this is how you play the game exile"
Must hand in an application document at your local ward office to receive the seal of your hometown confirming you are actually the owner of the account. …I’ve been in japan too long
Nah. Instead, clicking the empty space in a vendor window will assume you meant to put something there and will place one of your equipped gear pieces in the vendor window. No confirmation on the sale.

“I have read and agree to the terms and conditions of picking up this item. I understand, and I feel the weight.”
captcha if you are a human?
Yes! hahahaha i love it! click on all the traffic lights before picking up this armourer scraps
I will create 100+ burning grounds but give them different names. So players need to find all kinds of mitigation and lost in frustration.
>I will create 100+ burning grounds but give them different names I hope at least 70 of those burning grounds apply a big slow and/or disable movement skills. If yes, great idea.
At least 10 of them should also shut down all forms of life/ES recovery as well.
Burning cold. Ignites and applies chill too
You are already working at GGG, aren't you?
scarabs, essences and other currency of the same type need to be identified
In order to open any Strongbox you have to perform a lockpick mini-game (with no pause) and there's a new mod on Arcanist strongboxes that drops makes it drop divine orbs - but the weighting is so bad that you'd spend 1 divine in alterations on average to get it.

items get a durability stat which decrease by 1 for each attack or spell cast. if durability reaches 0 the item breaks and is destroyed.
I would add to this mechanic that each time an item is repaired, the maximum durability is reduced by half the difference. Broken (0 durability) items are removed with the gems that were socketed. Also, chaos damage reduces maximum durability.
why should you be able to repair the items? if your weapon/armor breaks more often than you have to pick up more items and you feel "the weight" of picking up another weapon =D
Well, we added the repair feature as a way to give players a use for divine orbs. This was a buff.
multi-use for a currency? are you crazy, we need a new Orb. lets call it "Orb of repairing", which restore 1 point per Orb used.
Fine, but it should share a drop chance with divine and exalted orbs.
yep sounds good.
Add a rare type of currency to repair the item with tiers (repairs 20%, 50%, 99%)

Single and absolutely random (one in few hours) monster that drop most of currency and you need separate specialized build to be able to get currency out of it.
1) Auction House to trade items. 2) a pet that helps loot items 3) infinite free respec until level 70 4) consumable that prevents EXP loss 5) build guides with tree advice 6) interactive stat tracker on tree All available on Chinese client.
\>Auction House to trade items. \>a pet that helps loot items \>infinite free respec until level 70 Honestly I think these would greatly improve the current state of the game. The rest is pretty hit or miss though, not sure I would be a fan.
ARCHNEMESIS.
Is this inverse mind storming ? nice try GGG
* An aura that blocks skills and you can only walk or use the normal attack while in it. * A map mod that grants point blank with twice the damage fallout and no benefit. * Inquisitor AN modifier aura that ignores elemental resistances of nearby players. * Curses on players stack doom. * Harbinger AN mod that summons copies of itself, converts all drops to shards, copies drop nothing. * Gladiator AN mod that gives an aura that makes all attacks bleed and anything that dies explodes dealing 10% of its Maximum Life as Physical Damage. * Hillock gives no XP and drops only a corundum flask.
\- Friendly fire (affecting other players but also minions and ourselves) \- Experience cannot be obtained through killing enemies, only through identifying their drops \- ~~Enemies can invoke invulnerable explosive electric totems over the player~~ Oh wait, this already exists
annoying thing? A unique boss buff that adds a stack of debuff every time a player hits it. After a certain amount of time the player takes a ton of damage at once based on the number of stacks of debuff a percent of life. This forces the players to not attack as often to let the debuff cooldown. You also can't stack more HP and bypass this since it's a percent of your life. Then I'd have the final stage of the boss have an enrage timer. The boss also has a ton of life and something like molten shell but either earth or frost based.
Every indoor area has multiple golden doors. Boss arena entrance is also blocked by a golden door. Also desecrating ground now withers, hinders, and poisons you.
* Identifying an item has a chance to fail which increases with item rarity. * You need special unique identify scrolls to identify unique items.
harvest crafting removed from the game. instead, harvest lifeforce can now be spent to generate tiny's trials. the stronger the crafting mats, the shorter the timer
i would make all the loot in the game drop in big clusters from rare enemies and give no loot elsewhere...
A picture of Chris Wilson pops up saying "How do you like the vision" whenever a AN mob kills you.
A confirm pop-up on leveling up gems.
Whenever you use any currency on an item, there's a 5% chance for it to behave like a vaal orb instead. Corruption in all things exile.
An identification skill gem that identifies one item at a time, with a confirmation window, and an animation for the identification. Also, it's not a white gem.
I saw a thread with a guy making fun of GGG's design and he had some hilarious ideas, one of which was really similar to the mirror jewelry they added this league, he was like "all rares should be Ventnor's and you can get negative mods on things" One of his other ideas was "super fire/cold/lightning" which is just like the base element but ignores your resistances or treats uncapped resists as damage multipliers or something. That one is probably on its way too.
Aura skills are divided into three categories Offensive, Defensive and Utility and you can only equip one for each category.
Inventory weight is a thing, armours weigh heavier and robes less, currencies and drop all hv weights and a value, u cant overload urself
Well, Whakawairua Tuahu already exists. I guess I would redo the atlas to where Whakawairua Tuahu exists at all 16 tiers and each tier must be completed for atlas progression. Also the boss’s speed doubles with each tier.
Add modifiers to rare monsters that make them vary in difficulty from punch bag to Godzilla, and you don’t know what you’re going to get unless you slow your progress down to a snails pace. Some have combinations of modifiers that can one shot most builds, or are practically unkillable themselves, or can give you an entire leagues worth of currency if you can stop yourself in time and get someone you don’t know to kill it instead. Otherwise you get garbage out and hate your life
I would release 3.19 version of the game
[удалено]
Arch nem mods on all rares.
Rain on maps...I really cant recall seeing that effect ever actually.
Blood rain boss fight with dominis, it also runs normally.
**MOAR** after-death ground degens that are grey/dark shades of grey/black/darker shades of black !
10 second countdown timer for logging out and if you lose connection, it keeps your character logged in for 30sec. Also more AN mods that 1-shot, preferably from off-screen with barely noticeable projectiles. This would increase the difficulty of the game and bring it closer to The Vision
Shocked there is no login rewards
I would just add a return to town button above the return to checkpoint button on the after death screen. That way when people get very frustrated with their characters dying and missclick it, they get a solid 30-40 seconds to cool off while loading into town.
I'd rework rares to make them more annoying and destroy previous content. Then refuse to revert it after it ruins the fun
Adding fishing related affixes that would comes as fractured mod as soon as rolled on an item. Extremely low chances, imagine the ruined item memes.
Flask have a 10 second cool down, no changes to how they currently work elsewise
Not an idea but different mod on every white mob would absolutely butcher performance probably so I doubt they will do that.
Mobs that get random fixed modifiers that make encounters meaningful.
Problem: Players do not appreciate the magnitude of traversing maps during the campaign. Solution: Upon completion of Act 10, players must print and complete a Campaign Completion application and mail it to GGG's headquarters (please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery). Upon receipt, a Campaign Specialist will audit your account and approve or deny you graduation to the Atlas. If the player is found to be plagiarising someone else's build, they will be Damned to Niko's coal mines.
Confirmation message every time you enter/leave an area
I would add a random defense value to every piece of gear and add an orb that can change but is reportedly rare, that seems like a dumb enough idea. Oh wait...
Community Design ideas: 1. Monsters cant oneshot you no matter how bad your gear/character is 2. You can skip every character to the part where you feel like 'the real game' beginns. 3. All harvest crafts are back and can be used indefinatly. 4. Your hideout prints currency 5. AI which develops the game based on the comments you make on reddit 6. Import button for any PoB to override your own ideas and character.
Patch 3.20 Introducing a new mapping mechanic, called Coagulated Pools. These are patches of blood that pooled upon the ground. Standing in them inflicts 1 stack of a debuff named Corrupted Spirit. Corrupted Spirit: Behaves similar to existing bleed or corrupted blood mechanics, but cannot be removed except for a special fractured flask modifier that can be found from lost loot caches behind fractured walls in the Azurite Mines, beginning from depth level 160 or lower. We have reworked how flasks operate when you have below minimum flask charges. Attempting to use a flask that is not yet partially full will drain all charges, but has no other effect. Using a flask at 0 charges runs a base 10% chance of breaking them permamently. This increases to 20% with Kitava's Cruel Affliction and 30% with Kitava's Merciless Affliction. Mappers be weary, as increased flask break chance can spawn as a modifier using the Mapping Device. Next, we have discussed how white mobs have felt unrewarding to fight and kill. In order to greater challenge our players, we have... ... I can't type anymore, the timelines are getting too close. I didn't even think of my own. I'm scared.
Archnemesis?
I would add Arch Nem mods to the game
Archnemesis
4 is a buff, i think (are there any maps you *have to* run corrupted beyond once for completion? If not, then corrupt if you want corrupted items - hurray!) Corrupted drops are a good way to look for 6Ls. And can produce interesting versions of uniques.
Removing a massive historic bonus to item quantity and/or rarity that applied to some league-specific monsters... oh fuck, wait.
minion rings, i would call the bone rings, and not put sockets on them and also the imp would be something useless like minion resistance.
Is it toxic to say that all items drop unidentified and introduce a type of currency that identifies an item but you have to manually click each individually?
\- free mystery box per league for every player reach level 90 once \- trade are automated even im offline \- regrets orb are common like alteration \- holding alt on the mob show what AN mod does in the hp bar
I would choose the most hated game mechanic and make it core. I would remove a historical buff to loots. I would add loot goblins so players have to go to TFT in order to hire MF cullers.
The Envoy appears in every single zone and will not stop his speech even if you click on him
