the omen mechanic is amazing just like breach was amazing in PoE top 3 PoE mechanic what i dont like is that this mechanic doesnt spawn every area but every several areas at best wich i think is bad idea the new mechanics should spawn way more often than other old mechanics becuz we are playing new season with tne new mechanic we should experience it the most then next season you can tune down its spawn rate thats what PoE does and it makes perfect sense to do that way
This is the same every new season and the reason is also the same as every new season.
Omens are not a season mechanic.
Omens are part of the core mechanic.
PoE has a seasonal mechanic that might or might not go core. And itâs always overblown and unbalanced when released, which then gets toned down when going core.
LE added a core mechanic. It will 100% stay next season because itâs meant to be part of the basic mechanics of the game. And it will stay in exactly the sme way it is now next season.
When LE decides to actually add seasonal mechanics, what you complain about might actually start to happen. But until then, this is just the core stuff they wanted to add before launch but werenât able to (due to various reasons).
Itâs not a seasonal mechanic.

how is this not a seasonal mechanic? we got a new season and this is the only new thing they added its clearly part of new season mechanic? that will stay in core after the season
Itâs not the only new thing. There are also new skills for Rogue. There are also echo chains. There are also idol altars. Are all those season mechanics just because they were added in this patch?
But the best argument as to why this isnât a season mechanic is simply this: it wasnât added just for seasonal characters. Legacy characters have access to the exact same things.
As I said, EHG isnât adding seasonal mechanics yet. Theyâre adding core mechanics.
Seasonal mechanics are mechanics that are way overtuned and that might or might not get added to core, like PoE does.
Core mechanics are things that are part of the base game and are added in a balanced fashion.
It already worked this way with Nemesis, champions, tombs, rift beast, etc. Every single season was like this. Why is it a surprise to you after 2 years that the same thing that happened in the last 3 seasons happened again?
And as Iâve been saying here for years, everything that comes out in the âleagueâ also comes out in my beloved âStandardâ at the same time, contradicting those smart alecks who said I couldnât play new content and that sooner or later they would add âexclusiveâ content. That was back in 2022. Itâs already 2026⌠Iâm still waiting for exclusive content, Mr. Know-it-all 
Because if you go play on the legacy server the mechanic is also there. Once they introduce a mechanic that is only available in the season it will be a seasonal mechanic.
I read the title and I guessed who made the thread, I was right.
