I think something went wrong with this. A lot of my equipments that previously had one slot now have two.

This is a bad change and I have no idea why it was pushed live...

There are many pieces of equipment (higher level uniques) where the only "good" thing about them is the fact that they have 2 or 3 slots.

The only reason to use a 2h staff in Act 2/3 is because they have more rune slots. Now they're simply worthless compared to dual wands or 1h+shield due to all the extra bonuses you get from having the item in the off-hand.

2-handed weapons should, at very least, be able to get double the amount of slots of a 1-handed weapon. And staffs should get more than that, since they're bad in melee.

Items with already socketed rune before this patch got another empty rune slot after patch ... This is game changer in the late game. Well .. i will not use the 2nd slot rune because game would feel too easy but some hotfix would be good.

Fix the bugs to make more bugs
Hopefully everything will be solved soon.
Till that moment I have no desire to play.

Ahhhh, I wondered why I suddenly had 2 slots on items that had only one earlier today

Oh well, lucky me

Thank you, Larian.

I have a lot of confidence that as time goes on (aren't you going on holidays now? ... well deserved! Enjoy!), the remaining issues are also looked at/patched and some quality of life improvements made.

I got this large update this morning and played it for a few hours.
Now I just got a small 12.5MB and I can no longer launch the game.
It crashes on launch.

Game version: 3.0.143.324

Ok, it's fixed. I just had to reboot.

Man you guys are almost good as the path of exile balence team

"Store on Lady Vengeance" is fixed too (but not mentioned in the release notes above).

That was bugging me more than anything.

So, the update completely fucked my story so far.

I was on the nameless isle, and after I updated, I now apparently have Saheila in my party and I can't get here to leave or do anything.

Anyone got a fix for this?

I have no idea how to fix this

I can't update the game.

I bought the game from Steam. I am running the game from the EoCApp.exe since it otherwise gives me an error related to the SupportTool.exe, which does not exist, apparently, or it's not where it should be. Given this, the game won't update to the 3.0.143 version, and so I cannot use the online features since it looks like everyone else does have this update and the two versions are incompatible.

I would just like to know how can I update the game to the latest version.

When there will be another patch? I can't play act II because of memory is not sufficient crash.

Have you checked your virtual memory settings? By uncapping mine, it completely alleviated all memory related crashes in Act 2.

Seeing as the game more or less worked fine for me to begin with, I don't see myself installing any patches if all they are going to do is take out fun features like multi-socket and shield warriors doing damage.

The game is hard enough (not saying it's too hard), learn to buff instead of nerfing all the time, it makes things a LOT more fun to play.

I've no idea what this is about, but the forum software doesn't support hashtags, guys.

It's mean a lot of threads about bad armor system in the game.
It's mean that in first time need to rework this system.
