I've literally not seen this in game yet.

(I'm in maps now)

The resistance penalty popped up for me, and I didn't skip a single cinematic.

Every act applies a -10% penalty (additive).

When you reach maps it's -60% to cold, lightning and fire.

Luckily chaos is exempt in PoE2. In PoE2 you would reach maps at -60% to all 4.

Has it not been popping up for people? I've seen it on every act and it stays on screen entirely too long lol

I see these pop up, by my resistances never go down.

Visual bug?

They should make it appear when we talk to the hooded one instead.Ā

How does the resistence penalty work? When you press c and look at your resistences, does that show before or after the penalty?

I had that going into Act2 but nowhere else.

Is that why I’m negative in cold and fire resistance? I have those on my armor and I’m still negative

wait you don't see them if you don't skip? lmao, thankfully I intended to ignore the story as much as possible pre release with the whole story out

i got a popup to favorite maps (appeared once i completed a t16), but haven't found a way to actually do it.

This popup overstayed its welcome by at least a minute for me lol.

I legitimately only noticed that resistance penalties are now incremented by act after allocating a node on the tree that gives +20% fire res and wondering why my res was still at 0%. I did expect the penalties to occur at some point but assumed it would be at the end of Act 3 (normal and cruel).

As an aside, why do the "optional" objectives exist that give +10% res? They are basically mandatory - it's simply a more tedious way to say "res penalties amount to -40%".

Never seen this and I've levelled 3 characters lol. Maybe my loading screen is too long?
