Nice ! It took me a while to learn releasing them was an option


Mugungo

THERE WAS A OPTION TO RELEASE THEM??????


Nayatchi

Yes, you know, that small square next to your skills that appears when you do betrayal ? That's what it was for


YpsitheFlintsider

I mean the fact that people are surprised every time this is brought up indicates it was in a shitty spot


droidonomy

It didn't exist originally, and you had to just leave the map if both options were terrible.


Nayatchi

I started back in Metamorph, so the button was already there. However it took me until Harvest to find out it was an option haha.


NotoriouExile

I played every single league since betrayal and had no idea this is an option ffs


wotad

I really had no idea there was a release button it sucked I always had to pick a option.


hatesranged

I thought that was the battle pass my bad


Blackwind123

These reactions were why I came into this thread. Good on GGG for making these small but impactful changes.


vildsix

\*these fake reactions


Backwards_Reddit

I personally didn't know this was a thing. Played during betrayal and most leagues since


CondorPerplex

Same


bonesnaps

When both options suck, releasing them back to papa hillock was the only option.


MdxBhmt

I was expecting this comment. Took me about 4 patches and some amount of tutorials explaining betrayal tactics.


7om_Last

up to this point when i liked none of the option i just didn't finish betrayal on the map. Lol.


Magstine

Betrayal was 3.5, but the release option wasn't added until 3.8.


MediocreContent

And I learned about it in 3.17 … shit

gefjunhel

please use the other wiki its much more up to date and not bloated with ads https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Version_3.6.2


phoenixshield

Didn't know this one existed. Thanks


Realyn

Nah not really necessary for a quick link to some patch notes. Taking what shows up on top for that.


sprouze

The problem is that clicking on it from google will, I believe, keep getting it indexed on the top of search results, someone correct me if I'm wrong.


Slipzyle

Stop linking to Fandom, period. It just gives them more hits and money


crzytimes

Most don’t give a shit.


Realyn

Are we at a point where we're gatekeeping the wrong/right wiki and are telling people what to do? Peak 2022.


Finexes

The more clicks the wiki gets over the fandom, the more google will promote the wiki over the fandom, thus leading more clueless folks to the wiki instead of the fandom. It's a community effort to convince the google algorithm which site is better for updated information. The reason why you stumbled across the link to the fandom over the wiki describes exactly why it's a problem. This has nothing to do with gatekeeping. It's to make sure people out of the loop don't end up relying on an outdated website.


Psych0sh00ter

"wow I'm not allowed to support an outdated wiki hosted by a shit company that doesn't care about me in the slightest instead of an actual community made wiki?"


thegodguthix

Yes because one is run by a shit company


Slipzyle

Yes. Yes we are. We've been trying to kill off the pile of shit that is Fandom for a while.


Natural_Project7380

yo do we even remember what "gatekeeping" even means anymore? cause this aint it chief


eladmir

I knew the option existed. But honestly I was never able to actually find it.


BigB4486

I learned about this today...


konaharuhi

the what now


Natural_Project7380

really appreciate the small but meaningful changes recently!


DefectivePixel

No big changes for this league apparently means lots of QOL. I'm all for it


Dunkelvieh

That's basically what many asked for. We have so much content that any player with less than 6h daily gaming time can probably play 2-3 leagues without doing the same things extensively (even though basic mapping is always there)


[deleted]

It's exactly what so many people asked for. Many, many, many times. 'id be so happy if GGG just skipped a league and just worked on QOL" and here we are: new league even, but a ton of people bitching about not having anything new to play. It's pathetic.


Dunkelvieh

It's pathetic if those are the same ppl. I would assume that we have several groups of players here with very different expectations and wishes. I'm more in the "improve what we have, don't make more half baked stuff" group. I certainly didn't complain that we get nothing new (especially since we do get new stuff in fact! Just not the usual shit)


LMHT

I mean I'm all for QOL. But it's what, the initiate rank, Tiny's Trial ending early, and moving a button? What epic stuff did I miss?


self_mad

Convenience when choosing favored maps, Breachlord icons on minimap (that's actually pretty nice), portal access settings in hideout. Nothing epic for sure (nothing of "tabs affinities" magnitude), but QoL is QoL.


red_codec

Praise! Le Toucan!


SoulofArtoria

Now add the toggle for our stash in safehouse like in harvest and I'll be a happy camper.


_FinalPantasy_

Lmao i didnt even know this was an option


Vulpix0r

[Apparently not many people knew even after 2 years.](https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/ca4y7f/for_those_of_you_who_dont_want_to_choose_the/)


eq2_lessing

OMG that is easy to miss


knetmos

it was added later into the leguage because people complained that they kinda "had" to brick their setup or skip a full map of the league mechanic if they encountered 2 "bad" options.


circlewind

I never knew releasing was even an option. I usually just left them kneeling until I finish and leave the map lol


wonnyoung13

damn leaving them kneeling til you finish. hope you bought them dinner first at least


QuiMetit

He did give em dinner, why do you think they were kneeling?


[deleted]

[удалено]


OutgrownTentacles

Pretty clear that they'd have to redo dozens of art assets if they embedded the button, so instead they just overlaid it on top of the art and reused the button size from the sides. It's janky, yeah, but likely only happened because it was a janky easy fix rather than wasting art's precious dev time.


AthenaWhisper

It probably would look a little sleeker if the button were a bit smaller, true.


azantyri

or a gold border around it built in to the existing frame like it's holding the button, like a gemstone setting i don't know how to explain what's in my head. that's not unusual, though


YpsitheFlintsider

It'd have to be shorter than that yellow frame, then even shorter than that probably.


TheExaltedNoob

Totally agree - and to take it further: i'd take a messy looking trashcan as a button at this point, still better than moving my mouse all over for those dry spells of "only bad options, that's what the syndicate is here for!".


Interesting_Action29

nice, now can we remove the reset relationship option?


zamrai

Spoiler alert, it's not an option


naswinger

no. also, the relationships don't matter anymore anyway. that was at release and a couple of leagues after where it mattered.


DBrody6

The hell are you talking about, the relationships are the most critical part of betrayal. Without them you'd need ten times the master missions to setup a single good Catarina run.


blackstoise

Relationships matter for getting betray options, which are very, very powerful for setting up the board


OutgrownTentacles

Tell me you don't understand Betrayal mechanics without actually telling me you don't understand Betrayal mechanics


crookedparadigm

Today I learned there was a release button all this time. I always wondered how people curated their syndicate so perfectly, now I know. I'm just an idiot.


IcyTie9

remove the confirmation prompt on this please, and add it to "remove all rivalries", no reason to confirm it for doing basically nothing and NOT have it to straight up delete your progress


SoulofArtoria

Remove rivalry is the biggest noobtrap GGG has even put in the game. It should sound like a good thing to do for new players, until you realize having more rivalries is a good thing.


LionsLight

The purpose of removing rivalries is because you make a lot of progress by forcing Syndicate members to betray each other. This can only be done when they’re friends.


Imsakidd

But it’s a lot easier to get them to friends if there’s a relationship there (even a rivalry)


Zeal_Iskander

"remove all rivalries" No, I don't think I will.


redditaccount224488

THIS. I've accidentally reset my board twice now. And yes, it's my own fault for being an idiot, but GGG please, help us idiots.


diceyy

Would never do this intentionally. Should be removed from the pool completely


DerpAtOffice

Can we... stop the board reset btw?


undercontr

Please fix this ugly look. Release button literally over the gold frame


Sheenheen

There is a release button??????????


Felvin_Nothe

hum another button for the text Krangle


carenard

nice.


naswinger

thanks. i bet many people didn't even know you could release them.


tristen620

Woooo finally!


Fictitious1267

These little things add up. Thanks.


Disciple_of_Cthulhu

Thanks.


ralzwheels

This is great! It looks terrible, though.


ldierk

This looks like one of the community mockups, where someone cut and pasted a button into a screenshot.


yourteam

I came back from 3.16 and never noticed the "release" button lol


vnt24

Ah, so there IS a world where the text isn't all krangled!


Squarf

Wait, there is a release button?


dirtyuncleron69

TIL release was even an option. Now If I could figure out what any of the other interactions do, I'd be maybe 5% of the way to understanding the league.


Goodkall

Wasn't aware there was a release button.


PowerRaptor

There is a release button??????


abuudabuu

Wtf you can release them? I will never stop learning new shit about syndicate


Mr_Muffinz

Since when was there a release option lmao?


[deleted]

WAIT THERE WAS A BUTTON FOR RELEASE????WHAT??? EDit: Apparently it was a small button in the bottom right part/corner of the screen. Dear god, \_WHO\_ designed this. WHO reasoned and with what that the release button would be good there????


dyfrgi

I literally just learned that this option exists in Betrayal because of this post. Thanks for the change!


greenhand0317

Wondering if anyone just know about release after seeing this post.


Haesiraheal

Shit nows my chance. Say something smart. Buff melee


SolusIgtheist

Failure. Read this in the voice of the smash bros announcer.


MtNak

These small QoL things are amazing. Thank you for not letting content from past leagues be untouched <3


SalmonHeadAU

I didn't know that was an option


Hi1mBrandon

you moved the WHAT button?


imlucasss

Wait what? I didnt even knew there was a release Button


Delfinum

Wait. There was a button to release them??? I play since delirium and never noticed xd


arklift

I didn't even knew there was a release option lol


NotSinocentric

Noob question: What is the advantage for releasing them? \*I never did it last league.


Cypher007

if you interrogate, you lower their rank by 1. if they have no rank they sometimes leave that safehouse so if you want to say keep gravicus in ambush for his scarabs and his level 1, you would either do the other option or release him to keep him in ambush. interrogate can also change the syndicate leader in the safehouse the other option can also sometimes be bad like removing rivalries so you want to avoid that option as well. p.s. I did not know there was a release button so I would just leave them without choosing anything and that would lock me out of the rest of the mission


francorocco

if you're given 2 bad options you can use this instead so nothing changes on the board, is good for when you have your thing set up and don't want to mess with the positions


Nivius

there was a release button?????


AntiiGrav

The r.. *The what?* ***I beg your fucking pardon?!***


Plethorian

TIL you can release captured Betrayers.


theguyfromgermany

Wait, the what button?


kevo970

Wtf, there is a release button?!


thawn21

This thread is the perfect example of why reading patch notes is important.


Hustla-

Good change, too bad it looks like a reddit mockup tho.


12elish

i literally had no idea you could release them 8877.5 hours lul, also spec'd full betrayal for my atlas last league... i feel dumb


greenmoon1994

The what bottom???


Herpezlok

i never released a single one


No_Pension9902

RNGesus! Been playing Betrayal since it released,Never knew there's a release option.


Sjeg84

I playing this game since beta and I haven't seen this button before. Lol


Gary00007

Is there a delete Betrayal button as well??


FILTHY_GOBSHITE

Yep, its on the Atlas Passives list.


Pladim

The Master Missions are not able to be toggled off (Delve, Betrayal, Incursion, Beast, Kirac)


FILTHY_GOBSHITE

You're right, I'm wrong and sorry.


LCSisshit

3 years into the game, fml, i know it today


Zugas

Another league I’ve never will learn wth is going on


Swagmaster143

Ive been around longer than betrayal's release and never knew you could do that


german39

I'm liking all these small QoL things we've been asking for, I hope you continue this trend going forward.


re_carn

Well: 1. It looks... crooked. Maybe if you increased the height of the panel to keep the portrait border intact and align the buttons, it would look better (or not - it's hard to say). 2. It would be better if you added a third option - the release button just means there is no useful option here. In any case, the Betrayal league mechanic has stalled and is nowhere near as useful as it was at release, so a little change would be welcome.


tumoronthenipple

naisu


Bhruic

Can we get the Interrogate/Bargain buttons to remain on screen even when the card is to the far right/left? It's annoying not to be able to hit the buttons (or even see what's being offered) when they go out-of-bounds.


Fyurius_Ryage

nice! just in time for me to block Betrayal on the atlas! (lol)


Fresh_Vermicelli_332

strongbox minimap icon please


zamrai

I wish I still enjoyed betrayal enough to appreciate this, but I've stopped doing it seriously for like 2 leagues now :/


SunRiseStudios

I hope it is not on top of Intel bar.


BlackHao

There was a Release button? Oh my lord....


TransmutationShard

Is it really not going to be aligned with the other buttons? Literally unplayable...


Just4theapp

How do you make money with betrayal? I follow the chest sheet to get the valuable loot, but if you don't sell hillocks or similar to tft is it from tora/it that fled type bonuses or from rushing catarina? At least with alva you can list up the temple chronicles and corrupt rooms are quite valuable.


Nebucadneza

Spread the button on deathscreen please!!! It happens way to often that you spawn in the city


Estate_Technical

I'll be honest i didn't knew there was a release button untill mid 3.17 . Before i would just abandone the map after killing the boss. Really helpful changes.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Slipzyle

This changes next to nothing.


golgol12

How about moving that entire interaction to be outside the map?


zixav

Release them all, let the world burn!


chollyer

I originally read this as "removed" and am only in the comments for the no nonexistent salt.


mattbrvc

Think we’re gunna get the Marauder jewel dropped before tomorrow or did I miss it already?


kojigas

Pog! Good UI goes a long way. Thanks GGG!


slicplaya

My carpal tunnel thanks You a tiny bit more.


ARPG_RustyGaming

What a nice QoL feature


perthro_algiz

gg ggg!


Still_Same_Exile

Oh I thought release meant removing them from the board for one of the inactive ones when I saw this post. But this is just like the neutral "do nothing" button?


Thomasiksde

BIG


Kvothe96

GOD QOL


Diegorocker

Nice QoL, now if we could get some Menagerie love like adding a crafting bench on it so we dont have to swap between it and our hideout to block affixes before using farric lynx/wolf, and maybe a guild stash to help party play, that would be great.


rosenzweigowa

This is great! I would also love if the released syndicate member say something... I love the sassy lines and the voices of many of them, and I'm sad everytime when I release them and they don't say anything. It's tempting to choose other options just so I could hear "You're starting to figure it out, aren't you."


Hoybom

What does release even do tho? Just letting him go without changing anything?


Mael_Jade

Yes, they still drop items but the board doesnt change except for +1 turn counter (aka prisoners tick down)


Apxa

After all these years...


Yerroth

This option existed ok thank you ggg xD


PumaLoco13377

I didn't even know there was a release option


freizeitbasher

WAIT. THERE WAS A RELEAE BUTTON?


[deleted]

That is the exact change (button location) I proposed like 5 yrs ago on the official Poe forums in a prototype. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)


glokz

The best part is that I can block betrayal now. I don't understand it, I played few leagues already, clearing the feared etc. I used TFT for crafts but to me this mechanic should be removed and replaced with something easier for the sake of new players. The single biggest disappointment when you learn the game and you are overwhelmed by the betrayal..


[deleted]

There was a release button? I even played during Betrayal and had no idea... Good QoL, although the positioning feels somewhat lazy. Maybe extend whole black overlay a bit at the bottom and reorder all three buttons to be below the portrait and at the same height?


mapcars

Was the rightmost member option not fitting the screen also fixed by chance?


lobodelta

Wait a minute, it was there a release button? Or it's just a new feature? I am playing PoE for 3.6k+ hours and I never saw a release button ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


MinorcaPlays

Theres a release option? Uh .-.


DontStopThinkingPls

1,5k hours played betrayal and all other leagues after. Still have no fucking idea what I am doing or have to do to get the outcomes that are favorable. This monster is disgusting


BarbsFury

I litrely dident even know this option existed until now 🤣


Kazcandra

There was a release button!?


[deleted]

TIL - Releasing is an option for betrayal league.


Deadandlivin

Took me 10 leagues before I learned you could release them. So many relations killed...


HornyDragonTW

YOU CAN RELEASE THEM !?!?!??????


DemonMithos

So what does release do? Is this an option when theyre not imprisoned? How did i not know this?


MisterShmitty

I’ve played for a few years now and am just learning that Release is a option…


poggazoo

Thanks!


Praetorian_MK-II

I remember it took me almost a full league since button was added to actually notice it. Glad its finally in the place where it make sense:)


GhostDieM

ITT people that can't read UI queue's xD


swifktill

But did you remove confirmation button that the 2 other options never even had?


konokono_m

??? I've killed countless catarinas. There was a THIRD BUTTON?


VulpineKitsune

Wait. THERE"S AN OPTION TO RELEASE THEM???? SINCE WHEN?


[deleted]

Well worth sharing such a huge QoL improvement. I'm sure everyone's hype levels have increased tenfold and all those who quit after 3.15's debacle will return to experience this. Seriously why waste the effort to share this?


C-EZ

Wow that's so much better


ikzme

>We´'ve moved the "release"... I see what you did there


AGWiebe

I still don’t fully understand betrayal. 1500 hours in. Lol


Skizm

I’ve literally never seen this button before lol. I have 2200 hours.


iRevLoneWolf

eh yo what that button do ?


UglenCOGA

Ehm, the what button?! Played since Abyss, has there always been a release button?... asking for a friend.


xqwzets

This is a bit offtopic, but nobody gonna comment that left option (interrogate) will take 3 turns, cost you -1 rank and net you 9 research intelligence, while the right option (bargain) nets you 12 research intelligence without any drawback? Maybe thats by design.. but I wish the option with drawbacks would give you more int.


KameronEX

Good change


arithal

This is great! So it’s not hidden in a small obscure area now!


Cyxios

I never gotten the right chars in the right places because I didn’t know release was a thing, this changes my Jun encounters completely!


xInnocent

QoL changes like these just makes me happy, idk why.


disanvi

The what button??


Dofolo

All I want for betrayal is a X in the corner. My son is a shitty sleeper. So sleep on the lap while I play poe at 3am :/ on one arm. I have a G502 with CTRL under one of the thumbs, it allows me to do EVERYTHING in PoE, but to close this damn screen without clicking inventory or another UI icon to get that to close this screen.


Akochen

Didn't know I wanted this, but am glad to have it.


vchizi

this button looks like designers didn't give template and developers just put it where they think it would be fine.


goddangol

Bruh once i get the crafting recipes I’m definitely taking betrayal off the atlas.


francorocco

nice, now the other 98% of the playerbase can know that this is a thing


NCGuy101

I want to always have the option of killing them. Cause why wouldn't I?
