1hp atziri is maybe still cheesable, afaik gluttony was never really nerfed mechanically, it was just full uptime nerfs. You can get like 20 second duration reasonably then log out 6 times. Tho I dunno if 2 minutes is even good enough with bad skills, who knows.

3.13 delayed until January to get out of the way of cyberpunk, I'm going to laugh so hard if it gets delayed again

Remember they always push the December release and then all go on Christmas vacation. They can't delay a week without torpedoing their devs staycation plans. Least this time we'll get post launch support without waiting two to three weeks.

I'm disappointed but I'll make due. At least I don't have to make the decision between CP2077 and the next league.

Honestly, I like this since the usual holiday bugfix delay won't be a thing next league and they could probably use a holiday break without the usual screeching on forums in the background

they unironically should just whip up a quick flashback league and say 'yeah we're going on vacation so if you dont like it, theres always standard'. onslaught double beyond warband torment with every instance having a random mechanic or something, and just run it during December

Yeah they said they will be throwing together some sort of december event. Sounds good to me! I hope they let me play Synthesis league or something

I guess I'm in the minority that don't care about Cyberpunk. But I guess if you delay a week for that it runs up too close to Christmas so you end up having to delay longer. I'm honestly fine with a flashback though, its been far too long.

I don't care about cyberman 2057 or whatever. But I also don't really mind if the new league is delayed by a month, so long as I get something else to play with. I still haven't figured out 80% of this games basic mechanics so its no concern to me if its old content :shrug:

Honestly its more interesting, because I will get another new league one month after the end of December league. I only really keep interest for the first month of a league anyway.

They should make a voided league where consumables are no longer consumed. Infinite delve, maps that can be run forever, spamming multiple times with a single exalt. Infinite mirror copies. It would be absolutely broken. :getin:

You might as well just let the players make rares in a text editor then. It'd save them time at that point.

I'm hoping for "All-dressed" league where every map has all the past league mechanics as if it was every Zana mission with every scarab and master mission at the same time.

Also combine with this:

This is very likely what they'll do and maaaybe a 1 week something else. Wish they would do those crazy voided flashback leagues, those were fun as hell. Nothing like 20 rogue exiles in the final chamber of lab to get the heart racing. Or 20 invasion bosses in the first area after act 1 town.

I think they said they won't do those anymore, which makes me sad.

My hot take on the delay:

It's fine.

I'm thinking Divine Ire totems for the flashback. Is that build still reasonable? It's been awhile since I've seen anyone talk about it.

"Sure, I'll open up this Abyss that's completely out of the way and probably won't drop anything I can use, it'll be fine"

Welp, guess I'm done with this game until January unless the Flashback tempts me.

Motherfucker.

Up until this fall, POE lagues and major patches for FF14 dropped at nearly the exact same time, so I'd end up having to split my time between them. But the latest patch for FF14 got delayed a month due to covid, so for once I didn't have to do that.

Now they're back in sync :negative:

It's probably still fine. You don't hear anyone talk about it because divine ire is considered a slow skill, and totems are even slower, and totems have gotten overshadowed by brands. If you don't mind that then go nuts.

totem divine ire is probably faster than selfcast, contrary to most other spell totems. i really enjoyed my selfcast divine ire inquisitor when the skill first came out, but definitely it has one huge weakness: standing still is very bad in PoE. everything else about the skill owns, being goku is good and it's very satisfying to have the combination of the charge-nova + beam. the physical -> lightning conversion of course means that you have a wide variety of modifiers to stack for damage. it's everything you'd want in a skill, except the one thing, and totems will help on that front at least.
