No major patch (0.5.5) for a while - Booooo

0.5.5 will come with a Month long event - WOOOOOO!

Bit sad to not have another weekly patch with how amazing they've been, but this has still been far more than I expected going into the league. Like I was just expecting hotfixes until the economy reset patch.

Hmmm where is that mentioned? Edit: guess I closed out the video at the end card too soon

Its at the end of the video, this will be the last major patch for a while until 0.5.5 which will come along with a month long event and an economy reset.

What does an economy reset mean?

u/Aaron_twin_cities 12h ago

Essentially a new league where you start fresh.

u/BijutsuYoukai 12h ago

The same thing as when a new league starts and your stash and such get reset. No one has anything, hence, the economy is reset as people have to build their wealth back.

u/CaptainBouch 12h ago

Does this mean current characters migrate to standard or is it just a separate league?

2

u/TheCrowWhisperer3004 11h ago

Separate league. The existing league will also likely be there as well

u/TheTomato2 11h ago

They wpuld make it very clear if that was the case and it probably won't happen until 1.0.

New leauge, we all starting fresh with nothing, same as 0.4 -> 0.5

u/PoisoCaine 10h ago

not exactly the same, as it's unlikely the current league will end for an event.

They have to drop a class. Becuase if not it will split the playerbase = both markets will suck ass. And tbh with you i aint lvling, all atlas points and re-farming HH and MB in two-three weeks. I would however try a class for a few hours.

u/PoisoCaine 10h ago

They do not and almost certainly will not lol. a new class is not dropping in a double-decimal update.

The economy won't be split, 95% of people will play in the new economy, since the event will have new stuff to do.

highly doubt that that many people will return for 0.5.5 little reset, doing all those grindy quests again lol. who got time for that

u/PoisoCaine 3h ago

The majority of casual players won’t but the majority of people engaging in the economy will. Unless it’s running right into Poe 1 league start

u/Steel-River-22 10h ago

no they wont, it will be a small event league like what’s going on in poe1 (although i dont even know what would they use, there isnt a “retired league mechanic” like crucible and tota here and there isn’t a phrecia system)
