dat untainted nerf

I do NOT understand this Nerf like I do not understand why Grind Gear has to fins anything in the game that is good , and destroy it....
I mean first off, getting that map was like winning the lottery, in 2 months of doing Zana's daily missions I have only seem Untainted Paradise twice.
Secondly, there are NO item drops at all on the map, which is penalty enough I feel.
However, I can hardly EVER understand why Grind Gear HAS to find anything in the game that improves it in any way, and get their Nerf people on it, but they do??
MEH, between this, and desync, the game is practically ruined now!!

This map was one of the most requested in trade. Now It seems kinda pointless.

Then make it a Zana daily only map that only spawns 1 portal. This removes basically all "abuse" and still makes it something to look forward to.

And by the way, who gives a crap if this map gets you from 60 to 70 in one run (or whatever)? How is that OP? How does it affect any other player in the game? How does that change any kind of balance?
It just saves you time. If you want to nerf UP because it saves you time, then lets nerf Exalts too, because they make you rich, and lets all only get 1 stash tab because it's unfair to people who can't afford more, and let's just say anything that's good or enjoyable about the game should also be removed because people can't agree on shit.

Compare that to other similarly leveled maps.

Instead of 10-12 maps worth of exp per run, you get 3-4. They nerfed it pretty hard. It was definitely 'too good' as it was before in my opinion. Not just for leveling, but for gems. That's where it really shined. Alone, it was fine. But again, the people with the most money just bought into untainted instances (p2w, literally, just not with real money).

It was already somewhat not worth it for really high level chars to run, simply because of the exp penalty. Now it will be a lot less popular. It'll still be amazing for leveling gems, just not nearly as effective.

I do wish they made it a droppable map though now that it is nerfed.

We need higher level maps , the upgrade grind is too much already for us to have another grind like leveling . It just got old .

GAME DED!!! DED I TELL YOU


@DestroTheGod The map in its pre nerf state dropped off in usefullness in early 80s because plenty other maps (74+) provided the same experience to your character as a high level map. The problem lies when a 78map starts giving you close to 2-3% of its exp, and since flat exp penalty is 2% a paradise basically gives you as much exp as 4-6 78s, is faster and cheaper and much safer to run on top of that.

I agree. This shit was pretty weak imo.

Glad they nerfed it, it's not like I found one before anyways before the nerf..

What a joke.

Been in /global 820 for months, running Zana's all day, all the time never even got a Untainted before the nerf. I am definitely very hyped to get one now if I DO! Haha, like I said. What an absolute joke.

But thats what these ppl live for. Hunched over multiple monitors, reddit at the ready, there finger hovering over f5, descending at regular intervals, just watching, waiting, anticipating and salivating for the next decision GGG announces.

And when it happens, oh when it happens, that potential tension is turned kinetic at the speed of, well as fast as they can type, and they pounce like a pack of feral Vietnamese dogs, bred by the harsh realities of a life on the street, desperate and unthinking, they tear at the flesh of the concept until they tire and retreat, only to return more viscous and bestial than before.
