while we're at it, I'm not sure what I'm "insulting" either...I said I still enjoy this game.

STG DeathbotPosted 3/6/2013 5:37:07 PM | The TC is only stating the obvious. If you want to win in any game, you pick and skill and continue to buff that one skill in any way. Titan Quest and D2 you leveled the same skill as well as the skills that added synergy bonuses. Mythos you used gear that buffed the high level skillset you were using. Hellgate, you picked what skills you wanted to use and specced in only those skills.
However, I've never found any materia in this game before, so maybe I'm missing a part of the game as I've only ever found skill and support gems.

kyntrelPosted 3/6/2013 11:05:33 PM | didn't the devs acknowledge that speccing into high HP builds seems almost mandatory to some and that they are brainstorming on how to address the issue?

When a game design system is lifted directly from a previous work, I prefer to continue referring to it in the same way the original creators did. --- Please change your vector and move to a different coordinate because this quadrant is off limits. |

TC is right, though. You supercharge a skill or two, grab tons of defensive nodes, and then you have a respectable build. Most ARPGs are like this, and it's a fun system. I think there needs to be a little less emphasis on health in PoE, but they're close to a good balance.
EDIT: I also don't know what materia is. I played some Final Fantasies and it was in there, but not in the context you're using it.
