Path of Exile 2 just got a significant new update with a veritable feast of bug fixes and improvements, but it's hard for action RPG players to see the positives when it's also deployed some "build-destroying" nerfs that some are now stuck using.
Amidst the many tweaks, crash fixes, and squashed bugs detailed in the patch notes for Path of Exile 2's version 0.1.0d update, there are significant changes to "trigger gems and energy gain." Developer Grinding Gear Games says: "Trigger gem energy gain was not in the right place and it was far too easy to use ailments to trigger spells. One problem with the previous system is that if we balanced it to make triggering happen in boss fights then the triggering would happen far too often during clearing."
