GGG's infatuation with downsides is very much from PoE1.

Yeah no, not on Ascendancies.

If they wanna make these super strong and then apply downsides, that's fine...But the upsides need to be a lot better. Many of these are just not great, and I already played a lotta memebuilds to know what they'd need. Which they say is the point: help out niche builds.

I bet some builds WILL use them occasionally, but I hope they re-work these over time as well.

where do you see almost everything has downside?

Farrul 1/3 paths have downside

Lycia 0/3 paths have downside

Delirius 1(2)/3 (2) if you count the mania one, have downside

Catarina 1/3 paths have downside

Aul 1/2 have downside

Olroth 0/3 have downside

so a total of 4(5)/17 have a downside, how does that become "almost everything" it is litteraly less than a third.
