I literally almost NEVER post about anything EVER. I'm a long time player and a lurker/recluse by nature. I don't like interaction with people if I can help it. But I HAVE to add my voice to the count when it comes to these kinds of balance changes. I had quit the league but came back because I saw that you could build these insanely personalized and difficult temples. It wasn't even about loot. But now, I don't care again. I'm out. Because every bad decision like this makes it about loot again. Of which it's clear, to me, that my efforts are in vain simply because I was late to the party. this is why people say "the rich get richer" because the decision making process you've seemingly adopted doesn't simply narrow the pathway to "fun" and to "loot" it kinks the hose of what could have been leaving behind only the remnants of what was. Meanwhile, metaphorically speaking, those who want to drink go thirsty. Thanks for letting me, and I don't know... probably thousands if not more people know what I've been thinking all along. I shouldn't even waste my time.

Totally agree, building a perfect temple in a reasonable timeframe was a nice goal that could be motivating. It would have been perfectly sufficient to nerf the loot, but still make it worthwhile for a perfect temple.

The "lock only tier III rooms" needs to be reverted. This allows for backwards progression because +1 medallions just don't drop. Before you start a temple, if you get random tiles, none of them can be used to make a tier III room. It's 5 steps backwards and one step forward.

329 pages of almost entirely negative feedback, GGG.

This is a very demotivating thing to have had happened. I just spent the better part of the last couple days trying to set up a temple and learn the mechanics, only to have the carpet pulled out from under my feet. You all seem to let the top 1% of streamers / players have all of the fun, and then nerf it for any other average joe trying to play the game. It's a EA beta, and the dev teams needs to stop "hotfixing" things and hold off until the end of season.

We are players playing a game, i already struggle trying to buy things from the sea of Chinese botters and currency sellers, who beat me to sales 100% of the time. So now here is a way average player like me can make some income, and you guys take it away -- only after the top players and streamers have made their killing from it so they can continue making the game "look better" on stream.

Truly disappointed in this dev team sometimes. Are you also rolling back all the characters who have made 1000's of div in profit already from this strategy? If your going to let even 1 person profit from something, let everyone. Absolutely ridiculous.

GGG should just post these hotfixes and lock the thread, there's no point in replying because they clearly don't care about feedback.

Their "vision" must prevail no matter the cost.

PoE2 lost a player, Diablo 4 gained a player. Thanks GGG

Never posted before, just piling on to ensure you understand how moronic this hotfix is to the casual gamers who play a few hours a day. You really stuffed this league up.

I don't want to do the exact calc, but at the moment is almost impossible level up a spymaster due to their low spawn rate.

If everithing go in a perfect way, you need to find spymaster + armoury + garrison and another spymaster in two consecutive run, that is almost impossible.

I'm looking streamers that have already the temple in place, they lost the first room and now all the "last" room are at level 3.

So, they just need to find a lock medallion and the temple still continue to work (because the last room in the chain is at level 3).

For the other 99% of the people the league content is totally unplayable.

Do you need a QA test? I can send my CV

please allow locking of any room again...
This is not funny anymore.....
