One of the most popular Reddit posts from this last week came from a user ironically named PathOfExilePlayer7. In it he asks a very simple question: “Dear Wizards: When will blocking be making a return? Love, a Longtime Player.” Several respondents offered explanations, including “Didn’t you see the announcement: they got rid of blocks” and “Blocking is about a 5 or a 6 on the Storm Scale, meaning it is likely to return at some point but they need to find a world / setting where it fits.” So in an effort to help out PathOfExilePlayer7, when do you think blocking will make its return?
