It's tedious, mostly filler, and you're constantly at threat of losing your entry fee and all your progress to a crash or DC that's completely out of your control. It feels like a chore, not a game, despite (or indeed, because of) the fact that it isn't at all difficult.	Posted by suszterpatt on Jan 21, 2018, 8:24:03 AM Quote this Post

It seems obvious that the fellow just posted without reading much if anything of the thread. Which means it's likely that he won't read any responses. We have to at least give him credit that he wasn't insulting. Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all!

" Peterlerock wrote: I always make sure my builds can handle uber lab. Just build a bit more tanky, with 5.5-6k life, lots of physical mitigation, life regen, endurance charges etc. You can just walk through traps then, and even a buffed Itzaro is quite easy when you're prepared for bursts of phys damage. The lab has lost a lot of its terror for me, but I still don't really enjoy it. I can play it, I could even put it on "autofarm", but I don't really want to. I am still updating the thread keeping track of labyrinth problem threads and people not enjoying labyrinth. Over 360 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 960 posters in support I wasn't sure if I should Peterlerock to the list though? Peterlerock, if you read this and are so inclined to respond, would you like to see GGG make the ascendancy points available outside the labyrinth or perhaps make a way to avoid traps or make labyrinth less loathsome or at least like to see checkpoints in the labyrinth?

Just got a crash on a loading screen in uber lab, so let's bump this thread. Why am I being punished for the unreliability of GGG's code?	Posted by suszterpatt on Jan 26, 2018, 2:31:27 PM Quote this Post

Git gud and crash less Btw. Lab lover here. I crashed maybe once since breach league and im running a lot of labs every league. Oh right forgot to add. If i go full yolo changing graphic card settings or game settings i can still crash. Most likely it's something with your computer not GGG fault.

TL/DR I'm ok so f* you buddy "This is a Buff" ------------------------------- There is an old almost forgotten prophecy, that hell will freeze over. But we just recently discovered the true cause of this unlikely event: By the time GGG manage to balance their game.

I think that you need to take a look at the Technical Support part of this forum before you say something like this. But it is obvious that you are lazy and that is why you choose another approach - if with problem does not effect you, well, it does not exist. Cool.

" karoollll2534 wrote: Git gud and crash less Yeah, man. Just git gud. That will make you crash less. Edit: I actually talked about this a year ago. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1609216/page/434#p14226321 Fortunately, GGG has addressed some of those concerns since I made that post. But it still bears reading by anyone who thinks players should be blamed first and foremost when connectivity problems make the Labyrinth more frustrating for them. Happily, nowhere else in the game will punish you as harshly for a connection hiccup, and I doubt GGG will ever create any new content which does so. The Labyrinth fiasco probably taught them a lot about designing for an online-only game :P Wash your hands, Exile!
