Chris Wilson talks about the upcoming Area of Effect changes in Path of Exile 2.6.0.

Chris Wilson talks about the AoE Changes.

00:00 - 00:05 We decided to streamline AoE increases

00:05 - 00:07 It's a lot better now

00:07 - 00:10 We made sure to buff and nerf appropiate skills

00:11 - 00:16 We buffed a lot of skills, like Righteous Fire...

00:17 - 00:21 and Blade Vortex.

00:21 - 00:24 BV!

00:29 - 00:31 This is a buff.

00:31 - 00:34 Blade Vortex sees an 84% increase at level 20!

00:38 - 00:40 With no investment.

00:41 - 00:47 We also looked at some of the melee skills

00:47 - 00:52 and felt that they were underperforming

00:53 - 00:56 so we nerfed them.

00:58 - 00:59 Melee Splash has a smaller AoE now

00:59 - 01:01 and we left Cyclone in the dust!

01:04 - 01:06 Rolling Flames also is...

01:06 - 01:08 We also...

01:13 - 01:14 killed that.

01:14 - 01:16 Wouldn't want anything with

01:16 - 01:20 no Blade in its name, right?

01:21 - 01:27 Also, Reave's AoE is smaller than Cleave's now

01:35 - 01:36 They are saying..

01:36 - 01:39 they will all play with projectile... They don't know..

01:41 - 01:44 Oh, I can't talk about that...

01:44 - 01:47 We made changes though.

01:47 - 01:49 Kinetic Blast...

01:50 - 01:53 won't overlap now.

01:54 - 01:56 We might as well

01:56 - 01:58 remove it from the game

01:58 - 02:02 Along with Cyclone and Fireball

02:05 - 02:07 BV Buffs!

02:10 - 02:11 We...

02:11 - 02:13 did what we...

02:15 - 02:17 We did what we could!

02:17 - 02:20 Blade Flurry will

02:21 - 02:28 still be the most OP AoE ranged melee skill

02:29 - 02:30 Not Reave?

02:30 - 02:32 We killed that!

02:36 - 02:39 We "buffed" melee

02:40 - 02:42 again.

02:50 - 02:55 We did not tell them about Flameblast

02:56 - 02:58 Don't you think they hate this?

02:58 - 03:04 We are giving them 6 acts they better shut up..

03:04 - 03:09 And there is the Xbone revenue of course

03:09 - 03:11 4 flasks...

03:16 - 03:20 Remember the 2.0. Open Beta?
