Cant play, no maps

How exactly you cant sustain maps guys???? You can basically run unlimited t11-12 with these prices....

Why, exactly, would I want to play T11 or T12 maps? I oneshot the screen in those maps with a 5l Ice Shot. The boss usually dies within a few seconds, with a few exceptions (some of the Shipyard bosses can be very tanky).

For leagues, I kind of see why you would want to restrict the map drops a bit, but the atlas restricts them quite a bit already. For Standard, I totally don't see any point in this content gating nonsense.

Because by running t11-t12 you get some t13-t14 also you get currency and gear that you can sell to progress even more....If you dont want to run t11-12 you can buy some t13 for 4-5c each and run thoose it is still worth it cause most of the time you will get at least 2-3c back from drops and you have a good chance to get higher maps.

For me this strategy worked very well at least and at the moment i have around 10 t14-t15 maps some t13 and a lot of t12 and lower (with 85% atlas bonous)

I started trying to play self found maps up to 28% then realized how long this would take. Bought a bunch of maps and bought/mapped my way to 96%

Things seem fine up here. Did my first guardian the other day. I think all in all I spent about 30c on maps trying to fill in maps I missed so I could increase my %.

Totally worth it and I am running between t11-13s really consistently with a few 14's.

I thought the mapping was a problem, now I have a different stash tab for all my t10+ maps.

You're doing it right. The non-trade die hards just need to grind it out if they 100% refuse to trade. See TheAnuhart who has better gear than most traders.

Those of you who are struggling to build/maintain a map pool, what is your bonus % currently?

108%, been chiseling and chaosing for pack size on 12+ just have had shit map drops. Current red map pool is 1 Bazaar (11), 1 Shipyard (12), and 1 Abyss (15).

This tends to get to me recently. I got my very first red map a few days ago.. then I chained a bunch together. Then I had 4 red maps, then I got trash in those 4. I'm right back to tier 8s again. I can see how trading for maps would just solve these problems but it's probably the dumbest thing... trading to play the game.

I had hoped they would actually change up the end game and allow you to travel along these paths without worrying about drop rates. Progressing through content that gets harder and harder. At the end, if you were able to make it, you get to face a new guardian boss... and the shaper eventually.

I'm 1 month in, and I have a few red tiers in the 11, and like 1 12 and 13 tier. Hopefully by the end of the league, I'll get the shaper.

That's why everyone map drops suck so much, you're hogging all of the end game pie.

End game terrible. Main reason I dont play much anymore. I never was happy about it. I like always forwards progression. I dont farm never have. I dont like running content too easy 1% of time let alone 95% as is the case today. If my toons are set up to do uber or shaper I want shaper or uber 100% of the time. If they can only do 13 maps I want 13 maps 100% of the time. Call it entitled whatever life is too short to be fucked with by a game

They are supposed to be fun you know? Not repetitive or make you frustrated or feel like you're arm wrestling your little sister (low maps) 95% of the time.

Until they get endless rifts I'm super casual and GGG wont see another dime from me.

Yeah so what and he's probably only done uber 3-4x self founded. While i've done it 100s through trade. He's all dressed up and no place to go 99% of the time with his GG gear running content way beneath his competence and effort. Thats a terrible end game. He's complain about it.

In a ladder situation even with trade you can run out of money gearing up to actually do content then they give you no content to run with white and low level yellows. Again terrible.

Kind of realized I had to change my signature. You put it pretty well: Life is too short to be bored in a game.

Sure would be cool to see some of the new bosses and whatever... if I keep fucking around in tier 8 maps for another 20 hours... someday...
