All my maps that get ground effect get reforged. FAFO in POE1 ground effect suck.

The problem is everyone who played POE 1 knows, so GGG expects you all to know.

No, burning ground is a gotcha. We hated it in POE 1, and they literally intentionally made it worse in POE 2.

Literally their only focus is making everything worse

+1

If I have a waystone with burning ground, I dump it. Its not worth doing.

Almost every single mechanic in the game is designed to insta kill the players, so you can't progress easily.

This makes me laugh, and makes GGG mad . . . .

What can I say, if Diablo 4 is insane. Then POE 2 has the most insanity out of this world mechanics.

Everything revolves around waystone instant kill and one shot you all the time.

The most epic encounter in PoE
the floor.

The most epic loot drops
In someones hideout.

The most epic enemies
Dead ones.

Good decisions GGG
At some point you stop running to the well for water and
watch it burn, like the floor.

Game will literally run out of players, sick and tired of the dirty mechanics.

They only players playing this game are bots . . .

Wait, this is another intentional choice?

as a new player to POE, I thought a bunch of the things that I find terrible, annoying, and getting in the way of having fun were just EA things and would expect them to be ironed out, improved as we progress, but I keep finding out that many of these problems or choices, or beliefs have persisted for over a decade.

This is reducing my hopes for this game.
I hope they truly treat this as a new game and opportunity to excel than just an expansion for POE1.

I'm so sick and tired of chucking a bunch of exalt orbs at a map to not realise you got the burning grounds insta kill as a negative effect.

Just use the poe 2 regex site to created regex codes.

You can omit any mod you do or don't want.

Do you want +experience but not burning ground? it's super simple to set up.

Copy and paste the generated code into the search bar of your stash and it'll highlight maps that are good for the mods you choose to use or not use.

I don't know if outside links are allowed here, so just search "POE 2 regex" and it should be the first return of your search.

At least in POE 1 we had the pantheon to nullify burning ground as a deadly hazard.

Thankfully it's the worst of them and they didn't also keep dmg reflect as a mod.

A big problem with degens is they happen so silently you look away one second and next thing you know you're at 10% health.

That's one thing I've long complained about in POE, the fact that degens and other mechanics can kill you quickly and silently.

This game needs far more audio cues for stuff like this.

Perhaps an enhanced burning sound when on burning ground, an enhanced electricity sound for being shocked, etc.

I'd also love to see a "shattering" sound effect when your ES is 100% depleted.

In POE 1 they eventually introduced a mechanic called "The Pantheon" and one of the minor buffs you could apply was to nullify burning ground.

They knew it was such a hated mechanic they literally let you choose to nullify it once you killed a simple boss and talked to an NPC.

But at least they didn't keep the dmg reflect mods from POE1. If a player didn't know about regex to highlight that mod then one would always sneak through eventually and wipe hours of progress in the form of a 10% XP loss.

So yeah, these mechanics seem intentionally created to slow down or completely stop progress, especially at higher levels where it can wipe out hours of XP gains in seconds.



p.s. sorry for the long post, everyone. I just didn't want to create a handful of different posts replying to all these comments.

The problems is everyone rely on ES, wich can't regen before a certain time.

But pure MoM build and I suppose high life regen build doesn't struggle much against that.

So to me personnaly burning ground are a free map as I don't care about them.
