BUSINESS DEGREE.jpg

Regarding in-game trading, there is going to be a completely different approach to the current system in the Chinese version of the game, which is also being considered for the Xbox release. In the PC version, players have access to an API system that allows players to create lists and search for items on various websites. Once a player finds an item they’re looking for, they can contact the other user in-game.

“We don’t want trade to be too convenient. We’ve seen what happens in other games, and also in our own game, when trade is too easy. It lets people bypass content way too quickly,” said Chris.

The trade system in China, and potentially on Xbox, will be more user friendly but also more difficult to find the exact item you’re looking for. Players will be able to buy items from each other in a single click, but there’s going to be a small catch. Chris described the system as a ‘garage sale’ where players can search for a type of item and hundreds of choices will come out: some good and others not so much. This type of system would be more much convenient with a controller while not allowing players to instantly upgrade themselves with the perfect gear.

There is a reason D3 failed it was because you could instantly buy gear upgrades at any time with the AH

5 or 10 acts, it's literally the same thing! which makes a total 10 acts very very underdeveloped by default.

this is beyond any expectation I could have. ggg sure knows this game is gonna tank as soon as they release the xbox version, so they try to squeeze as much out of it as they can now. maybe even with the "sell at the peak" scheme some user predicted.

to put it simple: this is just gonna be more maps! (just like with the atlas "expansion". calling it acts is de facto giving up on this game, and in a very pathetic way. there literally is no excuse for this behaviour! ggg always was like "poe is gonna have 10 acts in total" - even a child could figure out what putting 5-10 in in one move actually means! this is gonna be it. game over, man, game over. if you can't tell the difference between one and 6 new acts - you are just the morons ggg hopes to attract with this clickbait (literally).

even I couldn't predict it would be this bad, btw...

PS: sure, playing throught all these additional maps will be fun one or two times, but that only proves ggg has no clue how to develop this game, and with this announcement this has become a fact.

It was a major part of it. So much so blizzard scraped the whole idea and admitted it was a mistake
Games like WoW are not the same as grindy ARPGs
In WoW if you want a specific item you can go do said raid/dungeon/quest or buy it on the AH
In POE you cant just go and kill a boss to get w/e item you want. You have to either get lucky on a drop or trade for it. Same with selling said item you have to find a buyer who is also knowledgeable enough to know what the item is worth. This is why POE has an economy vs D3 which never had an economy because everything was based on gold. Gold does not actually do anything in a game its just a currency. The currency in POE actually does something and hence you need to know if its worth it to buy a 6l or burn fusings trying to link the item you already have.
It adds complexity to the game.

>but i fear that's what it will feel like after the first character anyway, and it might even take longer to level.
How exactly is that a bad thing? I happen to enjoy the storyline progression more than mapping and taking longer to progress won't necessarily be tedious since the end goal, having your character grow more and more powerful is still intact. What this means is that instead of staying 20 levels in Dried Lake and no repeat, you get to experience content with a smooth progression for your first 75 levels. ONE PLAYTHROUGH. It's going to be a game changer

It isn't a bad thing at first, and it might stay alright after too, but it could get more tedious than the current system when it starts to feel like "oh i got to go through 10 acts again.", like with labyrinth. I found farming Dried Lake especially on fast builds quite comfy to be honest.

You think the people that play COD or candy crush are the same people who play POE or played diablo 2?
They get complaints everyday that POE is too hard and requires to much game knowledge.
POE is one of the most complex and in depth games available today. EVE online is one of the few games that is on par with it.

Wrong, they acknowledged it was a mistake regardless of the community feedback. There's a good article on google ("Why Diablo 3 is less addictive than Diablo 2") if you want to understand the pseudo "science" behind why itemization in D2 was fairly decent but itemization in D3 is utterly bland, unrewarding and ultimately

Relevant excerpt:
>In the end, Blizzard is left with two groups of players:
> New players will not experience Diablo 2’s reward loop, and will not get hooked. They will enjoy the game, get to the end, and (for the most part) wonder what the big fuss was about, lose interest, and wander away.
> Old Diablo 2 players will be left frustrated, unsatisfied by the lack of in-game rewards they were craving, and become angry, depressed, and reduced to flinging poo on the Battle.net forums.
>Out of necessity, Diablo 3’s reward system has to account for the Auction House. Because equipment is never destroyed, in-game rewards can never be too frequent or powerful or they will flood the Auction House, eventually trivializing game difficulty. There have been many solutions proposed (here is one particularly insightful discussion), but the reward system seems so intertwined with the Auction House that it’s difficult to see a radical change coming.

When Chris says things like, paraphrasing, "trading can't be too easy", he's actually very on point, because gear acquisition has to be ultimately balanced around player slaying monsters, not just players buying automatic upgrades from other players within 2 clicks, thankfully because the itemization in PoE is by nature more complex, it's less likely to suffer the same fate as D3

Worldbuilding-wise, ignoring the actual quality of writing? It still depends on what you want. If you want meaning and themes and imagery and symbolism and having so many of them you'll drown, then you can get away with something like wh40k as 10/10 and ignore how fucking silly and non-applicable the entire thing is. Something more serious than Discworld, probably. I can't really say anything bad about Middle-Earth but I guess you want something more recent. I can't say anything bad about Planescape either, but I guess you want something more grounded. Either way, those are all tens for me.

Runequest is easily 10/10. Legend of Five Rings is a 9. World of Darkness as a whole is a 9. Magic the Gathering pre-Oddyssey is a pretty cool and rich setting. Sapkowski's Hussite trilogy and the way it weaves history into fantasy cool as fuck.

Hopefully so. Leveling was the most boring and shittiest thing in PoE par none, but if you could do sub 6 hour Merciless it wasn't all that bad. In the long run it will really only depend on how long will it take to level to maps.

Regardless this is fucking amazing. No one saw 6 "new" acts coming. I am hyped, but cautious.

all the tools are here to trade

6/10.

Izaro is 9/10 though, he really brings the character and atmosphere that the game was missing. There are like 1-2 really good writers for PoE and I feel they only worked on Izaro.
>>
>>168354903
Yes, but what you fail to understand is that the whole trading mini-game requires knowledge and experience. A newbie would get lost in it, get scammed, not be able to properly evaluate prices, etc. and thus not be able to fully make use of it. Thus some effort and "skill" is involved, but that isn't even the only way you can progress unlike AH D3 which was 100% gated behind using the AH with no other options if you wanted to progress.

This is what I mean by balance around players slaying monsters and players trading, one cannot be too easy, and one cannot also be unnecessarily tedious. Difficulty is not tedium, that's the distinction.

Obviously. D3 is a piece of shit with a rotten core, the point was even if the AH wasn't the sole culprit, it contributed to the shit itemization because the itemization was designed to be dumbed down and easily auctionable.

I still play single player diablo2 even to this day. And guess what, its fun and it feels rewarding when you can finally create something powerful.

>>168355390

you are completely ignoring that d3 itemization has always been much much simpler than poe's to the point a simple in-game calc when you hoover can asses if a weapon or piece of gear is better for you, by showing green numbers

that is not the case in poe. AH would not mean the same thing for us

you are not required to trade to play POE
Self found runs can be very fun and very tough depending on the league and what build you go with.
AH would ruin a large part of what POE is. That is its a item based RPG game. When you find an exalt in a new you are exited not because you can add a mod to a random rare item you but because you can trade it for a great item or items for your build. If we had an AH certain build defining items would be 200 exalts where other great items would be a few alchs because of how available everything would be.
Trading is part of playing the game just as much as slaying monsters or theory crafting builds.

You are not required to kill monsters you could just sit around trading on the AH
You could also never play the game and just theory craft builds and make build guides

A self found run is to be a challenge not something I would recommend until you have already played the game a ton with trading and have made several different builds

How are those statements contradictory?
You have option A, or option B, or even option A+B. This is preferable to only having option A. If you slay at trillion monsters and find nothing of worth, then this is unrewarding and you resort to trading because you have no other option. If you're showered with upgrades for every 5 white skeletons you kill, then this is also unrewarding because upgrades lose their meaning and you have no incentive to ever participate in the economy. You can't have either extreme, it has to be a balancing act.

This anon is right
The problem is a) Blizzard wanted a simplified itemization model so the game could be easily balanced with a greater focus on arcade gameplay (rotations etc), so each class ends up having basically 1-3 builds
b) simplified itemization means all valuable items are centralised around a few legendaries and their upgraded variants. Your loot ends up devolving to basically slightly different variants on the same dozen items.

Chris,
I've been playing this game since Closed Beta. I remember being in High School at the time and saying to myself 'I actually believe in this game, and everyone seems so genuine. The community, the developers, and the content.' I was working part time, but I remember giving up my entire week's paycheck to donate to this game. It was the first time I had ever donated and it was such a huge plunge for me. I knew though, I knew that it would be an investment for what would be hours and hours of joy and entertainment, memories and laughs. To this day, I still rock my Silver Kiwi proudly. I've since donated a total of $350 and couldn't be happier. My friend and I even came together to create the Hunter's Resolve card. I can't thank you and your team enough for this great game. I don't think I could have spent that initial donation any wiser.
From the bottom of my heart,
Thank you,
Joshua

Chris described the system as a ‘garage sale’ where players can search for a type of item and hundreds of choices will come out: some good and others not so much. This type of system would be more much convenient with a controller while not allowing players to instantly upgrade themselves with the perfect gear.

Doesn't this shit head get that gear cost currency and you can't get immediattely perfect gear because it costs fucking much.

Time-wise maybe if you only play one character per league, however
1. the game and genre itself revolve around replayability, e.g. the goal is never really to stick with a character for years (or you should be playing standard)
2. Level 1-75 which covers story mode is probably half if not more of your character progression, not 1%

newfag here

Can I play PoE just like any other Diablo?
Or is it really the "follow step by step guides and spend all your time sitting in hubs waiting for item trades"-fest that critics make it out to be?

The game looks solid and it seems like the developers put in a ton of work to add new content

I wouldn't be above looking at guides to make my character viable when he reaches later parts of the game (I don't know if it has PvP and if it does I wouldn't engage with it)

But do I REALLY have to trade for specific items to make my build effective?
Picking up the shit you find and using it on your character kind of seems like a big drive in Diablos and I don't want to wait in a hub or search some external website to fight people who will trade me some sword I need to progress, that would really irk me and might actually keep me from playing an otherwise good game

When will you realize that you play to get something to trade with, so that you can grind more to once again, trade, etc.

If its easier to trade you finish your build fast and... then why would you even play?

Trading is an option. A very strong one, but an option of you are wanting to play a very specific build with a very specific purpose?

It is entirely viable to make a generic elemental caster and play around with whatever skills you want or happen to find.

Even then trading isn't as big of a pain as some make it out to be. It takes a bit to search for the item you want, message the guy, and trade. A fast trade can take less than a minute in a healthy economy, aka not Standard or Standard Hardcore.

Now about having to follow a guide step-by-step, that isn't necessary, and won't help you if you don't git gud. No matter what anyone tells you. Everyone was a retard at the start. Build following retard or not.

i forgot to ask if you can respec your character

surely balancing of items and abalities happens regularly and i am sure they don't just completely shit on a build and turn your character from cool to useless
but i would still be afraid of investing a lot of time if the character i build can't be retroactively altered and i am fucked if the devs decide i am

Huuuuuuuh the lore is still very much Lovecraftian

That's the background setting, as for the different ethnic groups juggling different inspirations, that's just artistic licence, it doesn't make sense unless in a fantasy story

If you think about it you got
The Vaal - clearly inspired by the Aztec, practiced human sacrifice
The Eternal Empire/Oriath - clearly inspired by Ancient Rome/Germany
The Karui - Maori, obviously
The Maraketh - Eastern Asians

All of this was established from the start.

You don't need perfect gear to progress fast, all you need is good gear.

Lets say you are level 50, you have bunch of below 50 items on your stash. You have no need for the items but there is a horde of players below you that could make use of them. For you the value of the item is zero, you don't need it. If you get anything more than what you'd get from selling to npc, you'd do that trade as long as trading is easy.

The harder it is for you to trade, the more likely you are to just vendor the item instead of bothering with trading other players.

To anyone considering playing Path of Exile:

>>>>>>>> DON'T <<<<<<<<

Here's why:

1. We're closed to newfags
2. We're extremely xenophobic
3. We are an homogeneous elite HC ssf society.
4. We hate all of your degeneracy: animeposting, catposting, redditposting, etc.
5. You'll never be able to integrate into a society of elite HC ssf players when you're a redditor or a forumbabby
6. Your race (redditors and forumbabbies) has lower IQ than ours.
7. You don't know our board culture and memes, and will be seen as barbarians for that.
8. We are extremely skilled players and you won't be able to compete or cooperate with us.
9. All our game knowledge and macros are for our people and our people only.
10. We don't want to ruin ourselves with your degenerate ways.


Thank you for your time. Have a good day.

The actual placeholder spots for them existed before they were actually implemented. Someone on the forum asked whats up and a blue basically posted "it's a surprise, you guys are gonna like it ;)" like it was some big mystery what it was

posters after that basically were offended that they thought fans were so retarded not to know that they were just adding more torment levels, and how underwhelming and stupid it was

>>
>>168370301
You know in all honesty, there is no helpful answer when people come in and ask "what build should i play", because our assumption is "what build gets you through red maps with fucked up mods".

Just look at this newfag that just posted, people are telling him about ES based defences. You dont need to know anything about ES until you've played the game through at least once.
Really newfags, you are going to be overwhelmed by the answers you get, because we are thinking of the end game. Your best bet is to play the game and learn the preliminary shit yourself. The only advice I'd be willing to give anyone is to press M when they start.

>What are they going to do with the bandits?
Probably remove cruel rewards, move merc rewards to act 7.
>what about Quests passive skill points? and refunds?
They'll redistribute points that would have been awarded in cruel to the new act quests.
>what the fuck are they going to do with izaro's fun house?
Hopefully they go back to 6 ascendancy points distributed in act 3, act 8, and uber. If they stick with 8 then you'll probably get 3 ascendancy points in acts 3 and 8.
>the lvl 90 soft cap is going to still the same?
If not, then it'll be something similar since GGG will never not be butthurt over 3 people getting to 100 by no-lifing at the start of a league

PoE is FREE to PLAY for the first 20 hours but if you keep playing it past that and not give GGG any money, you are a thief.

check a map guide (like https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1489756 considering any map at 7/10 or above in terms of clear-ability ) and throw those maps into a lowtier stash
take any other maps and throw them into a stash for the upgrade recipe
when you're feeling tired or low-effort in general, roll like 30 of the low tier maps and run them, only picking up currency and sell-able uniques, ignore literally everything else. ONLY ROLL THEM WITH BLUE CURRENCY, that way you always make a profit, and in the long run a pretty substantial profit in terms of currency spent (including map cost)

Quite frankly I didn't mind it SO much because of a few areas I enjoyed farming.

Ledge (Kinda sad I won't be able to enjoy this 3 times per character anymore, despite... Ridge), Felshrine Ruins (my second favorite by far following the road), Dried Lake.

I used to thoroughly enjoy CoS, but when they removed perpetus they also removed my care for the area.

Make a build that abuses the 1hander+wand glitch if you haven't yet. It will probably be fixed when 2.6 launches.

Dual Wield two wands.
Vendor main hand wand.
Go to a zone and drop a weapon on the ground.
Pickup weapon and have auto-equip enabled.

BF Obliteration Poison Occultist is silly. Flicker Discharge with Mjolnir+Tulfall is also a thing.
>>
>>168381836
I feel like his Sword Wave has increased crit chance. I much prefer to fight him when he has his slow as fuck 2h mace.
>>
>>168382095
What that glitch does?


What character to start in standard softcore if I want to hit +10 tier and uber lab properly?
>>
>>168382240
The glitch allows one to equip both a 1h weapon and a wand. Normally wands can only be equipped with another wand or a shield.

Standard? I recommend making a character in Breach for the better economy and Breachlords are hella fun.
Just focus on getting at least 6k Life+Fortify or 10k ES and you should be fine for Uber Lab and T15s. T16s need a bit more. I recommend Ngamahu's Flame Raider Cyclone. You'll be fast as fuck with pretty decent clear speed.

>>
>>168382847
not sure why you're having problems

you should be able to roll izaro with marohi eq + a warchief

make sure you have instant potions and a defensive flask or two if you're relaly getting shit on

also dont let him get elemental buffs

>>
>>168382847
Link Fortify to your Leap Slam.
Run only one CWDT curse, Enfeeble.
Change Physical to Lightning to Conc Effect for Izaro.

Get reduced EQ Duration helm enchant.

You honestly should be wrecking him with your setup, but this is all I can see to improve with your gear alone.

>>
>>168382847
>champion
I see you've chosen the absolute worst duelist ascendancy, anon. Any reason for that?
respec to slayer and you should be good to go. Izaro is a piece of cake with endless hunger + brutal fervor + hematophagy (leech passives next to duelist's endurance charge).
>>
>>168383498
Oh, I made this character about year ago and then champion was recommended.
>>
>>168383315
I couldn't tell that from gear alone. Your tree would be more helpful.
Swap Warlord's Mark to Enfeeble. Swap Punishment for Vaal Haste/Vaal Grace.

Actually, just listen to >>168383498 and you'll have an easy time. I'm assuming you were running Warlord's mark because you don't have any life leech from other sources and is probably what you're missing. Also Champion is primarily used on Ranged Duelists who can't get Fortify normally. Going Champion on a melee build is a waste nowadays.

>>168383832
Uber Izaro didn't exist back then. Champion was stronger. Slayer was weaker. Now it is the opposite for all three.

>>168383940

>>168384071
I am retarded. You want Vaal Haste/Vaal Grace in your boots so it's linked to Increased Duration.
>>
>>168383832
yeah, there's your problem. Champion is pretty gud for tanky bow builds (esp. voltaxic), but terrible for anything else - especially two-hand builds.

As a slayer you just equip kaoms and grab a shit ton of life nodes and fortify, and nothing can ever kill you. great clear speed, great single target, great tankiness, all around certified nicebuild. If you want some phys reduction i'd run a taste of hate instead of a coil, desu it's just not worth the gem sockets to give up kaoms
>>
>>168383940
About enfeeble, problem is that I need to generate frenzy/endurance charges and also this build doesn't have crit.

>>168384493
>endurance
You are Melee. Try to fit in an Enduring Cry and us it once every 10 seconds. It's easier than it sounds, and Warlord's Mark wasn't giving you many charges during a boss fight when they are most needed.
Enfeeble simply makes the enemy less likely to crit you, less likely to hit you, and when you are hit the hits are weaker. It's a threefold defense from one curse. Very good.

>>168384493
Tree is decent. Personally I would remove Armour Mastery, finish up Butchery instead. Armour sucks against T10+. Also I love Vitality Void so get that. Remove Blunt Instrument if you need more points. Yeah, you drop a lot of armour, but Life Leech+Big Life Pool is infinitely stronger than armour.
>>

>catalyze and elementalist for no reason

desu vitality void isn't good unless you want to go right for other reasons, which you don't on this build

hematophagy is far superior as far as leech nodes go, and is closer
>>
>>168385978
Personally I hate getting Mana Leech on gear, but I'm probably being a little bitch about spending currency. I usually only go melee as a League starter.
Looking at that area more, you are correct, Hematophagy is better and it is next to Empowered Fortify nodes.
>>

I hated the xbone release announcement to the point that I felt betrayed for my financial commitments in the past. Now I feel like a whiny jealous little bitch who got mad because their favorite game flirted with another community.

GGG, this was my weak moment. There's no and there has never been any justifiable claim to have a donation be used explicitly for what the donator had in mind. Having been so narrow minded and now seeing what you accomplished, I feel ashamed. I regret having doubted you.

I'm ready now for this kind of open relationship. And I will probably purchase the next iteration of supporter packs too.

Sincerely, a reformed fan.

after spending like 2000 fuses overall and never getting a 6L I finally realized the nature of this hamster wheel, haven't played for days now

I'm free now
good luck to all poetards still stuck in this grinding hell
>>

uninstall the game and blackhole the domain name

Are master sapper and blast cascade actually enough to keep up charges?

Thank you for the support and keeping this game free for all of us :)

lmao
almost nobody in this thread is even playing right now

you caught me lad
im literally sitting here reading garbage manga while i toil away the hours until i go to bed and start doing nothing all over again

just die in my sleep already
>>
>>168389780
>more linear

This is the one thing that concerns me with 10 acts, in 1-4 you have a bunch of sub quests that provide flavour / points and just break up running down a path. I hope they add a bunch of new side quests but the scale could result in them being spread thin.
>>
>14 challenges done
>2 weeks left

Is there any hope for me to get the portal effect?
>>
>>168393635

Why? Unless they give skill points or something unique, whats the point of doing them?

I mean the first time people will do them for the lore or achievements or whatever the reason but beyond that they will skip
>>
yeah stop sucking dick
>>
i got the wings in the first 2 weeks
>>
>>168393986
i went from 22 to 36 in the last 2 days
>>
>>168393986
Sure, just commit yourself to playing a few yours for the next 10 days. Might be easier if you're in shitcore since 820 is still probably active
>>
been 40/40 and haven't touched poe for 2 fuckin months now how do you only have 14 challenges done? is this bait?
>>
>>168394161
Nah im in hardcore, got an 80 char but ripped the rest doing stupid shit.

who cares you got 40/40
you don't get to enter some special cool kids club where a hot asian gf awaits you if you do

'>>168393635
>>168394045
on the same line, whens the last time you've done the bear quest in a2? Sure it adds some flavor to act 2 but its just better to progress through the act instead of spending 5 minutes for a rare belt that you're going to replace in 10 minutes

Flavor is cool, but it should be put into the game in a different way than 'go over there and tickle some rhoas for 7 alt shards'
>>
you can't be bad at poe, all it requires is a good build and time investment
>>
>>168393986
I'm stuck at 32, could easily get 35 with spending some currency, and with some rng luck easy 36. However, can't bring myself to even start the game and dunno if the wings are really worth it
>>
>>168394202
You should aim for the wings tbqh, it's the best challenge mtx they've released in a long time, I can help you with trading challenges and stuff if you're serious about it
>>
>tfw you buy your challenges as soon as you can and then quit the game
Why do you even play if you just play to buy the challenges and not the actual enjoyment of the game.
Fucking autism

SSFHC will separate the wheat from the chaff, the men from the boys

Frankly, you shouldn't even try to play it if you buy boss kills and copypaste builds

cecasue i have crippiling social anxiety and depression and I'm probably on the spectrum somewhere and the only thing that dulls the pain of being a self loathing idiot who realizes but refuses to change anything about the things he does to himself that are hurting him and the relationships with his family and the few close friends he has is to power game the most skillless grinding games there are, jumping from one to the next, alternating patches and expansions to keep your mind silenced, refusing to seek help for my flaws and just waiting for that golden day of something to come along and change it all up fuck you i got 40/40 fuck you i did it in 2 weeks fuck you i want i normal life i wish i wasnt like this fuck you

are you okay dude

At level 20, CWC has a cast time of 0.35s which is particularly good for slow spells like Icestorm (1s)

1/0.35 ) = 2.86
It's literally like having 186% cast speed, and it costs virtually no mana to channel

heres a reminder that you're bad at this game
>>
meh, it's not like it's a proof of anything those days, you could have bought 12 challenges, sitting in your hideout and flipping is not really a display of game mastery

do that in SSF league in 2.6 and I'll be impressed
>>
it was done 100% solo, in first 6 days of the league and I was done with the league afterwards because it's SHIT

Sorry I won't give you a pat on the back for something many of us can achieve as well

post yours then, shitter

>finish challenges on plebcore character

>>
probably took me closer to 2 weeks, but I wasn't going full tryhard at it because it's not a competition and many challenges were 100% RNG

finding a unique strongbox or chayula in a breach doesn't make you a better player than someone who doesn't, just luckier
>>
Can you recommend some good clear speed high damage build to clear t14-15 maps and uber lab etc.
>>
sure howa
>>
any totem build
HoWaA
BF
WI
Cyclone
LA/Barrage
etc
>>
>poison builds are powerful
>release two endgame bosses immune to poison
>you have to beat those bosses in order to access the last boss

GGG could release 20 acts and I still won't forgive them for that shit.

>>168396296
This is on your assumption that a single character can do any content and beat any boss in the game easily, which I would argue was never the original design

You could see as far as SotV expansion that the game encourages you to either be good at most things but not everything or specialize into this one thing
>>
>waah i'm bad therefore everyone else is bad too waaaaaah
>you're just lucky, waaaaaaaaah
i want shitcrows to leave poeg forever ty

>I'm a good player because I play a cookie cutter totem build and get my challenges in the first week like any tryhard
rofl
>>
>>168396405
>beat any boss in the game easily

Immunity doesn't make it tougher to beat a boss, it makes it close to impossible since poison is like 4/5th of your DPS.
>>
if sh*tcrows were good then they'd be playing hc

it's that simple
>>
>Feeling superior for playing arpg
lmao
play rts or some shit. You're basically playing WoW but it's even more babbymode
>>
>you're using X skill therefore you're using X cookie cutter build
SH*TCROWS GET OUT
>>
feeling pretty superior right now
>>
>>168396586
Yeah, but that's just a flaw design that is only relatively recently enabled, previously players wouldn't have been even remotely close to having characters dealing 80% poison damage

To be clear, I think the immunity thing is somewhat of a lazy design too, but it's just taking back power that was too generously given for nothing

When double dipping gets removed in 3.0, poison will be more in line and easily balanced and you won't have to complain you lose x% of your damage against this one boss if x isn't something ridiculous like 80
>>
I'm going to kick all of your asses. get ready, you punk kids

The true measure of "skill" in an ARPG can only be defined in a SSF environment

no trading
no aurabitch
no guild handouts
no boss kills assists whatsoever
no copying a streamer build node for node
no relying on broken mechanic like VP+CI where you fall asleep on your right click

See, the totem guy above cannot be called "skilled" because he relied on trading and other players to get his challenges, no way he could say, have completed Chayula breachstone with some 20k dps (lol) warchief build, he clearly had to buy some of his challenges, so sure he possesses some wealth generating and trading skill and to an extent, but this is not actual player skill.

Prove me wrong, you can't.

you're actually retarded and incapable of reading, aren't you?
READ THE CHALLENGES
READ THEM VERY CLOSELY
THINK ABOUT THEM UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND THEM
COUNT TO 24
WOW
SO EASY
>>
>>168397428
I thought you were bragging about wings
You were actually bragging about getting 24/40? that's semi-casual territory, what's there to be so proud about?

Why are you guys proud of anything and putting people down?
You are all wasting your lives away playing video games regardless

wrong, i already said it was ssf

you dont have to clear any breachstones anyway, retard, learn to read

>he clearly had to buy some of his challenges
again, i didnt buy anything

>so sure he possesses some wealth generating and trading skill and to an extent, but this is not actual player skill.
and this is just a straight up retarded statement
