Ultimatum is everything I don't like about current poe.
I hate it just hate it.
It's not that I cant do them. They are just one big massive clusterf*ck of unbalanced mobs that spawns so fast, that even though you clear them, there's always thousands of them. The modifiers you put on the ultimatums are fine IF I COULD FREEKING SEE THEM^ The rewards are there to please the kids, currency veiled items and 6links are thrown in your face so much that you just don't care about them. On top of this GGG wanted to make the gap between the average joe and the neckbeards smaller, but actually did the opposite. Average players will get torn apart in map ultimatums, while good players will profit a lot from them. Simply be course the mobs still are so freeking unbalanced. Why GGG why is it that 4 rare mobs all with auras spawn at the same time? Rare mobs who btw has 100 times more hp than the map boss. It's just so dumb. Sigh It's the same shit every league. Release some untested bullshit, and let us be the beta testers, then after the league is done it gets balanced and goes core. Not this time, this pile of huge garbage is not going core, it's all ready filled with to much stuff. God I hate it. It's lazy, dumb, boring, and just broken. Last bumped on Jun 17, 2021, 3:30:41 PM

One thing I like about it is that you can completely skip it and it doesn't ruin the game. Other leagues have been more intrusive. This one just is there when you feel like it.

Ultimatum definitely isn't winning any awards, but most of what you said sounds like you haven't even played this league at all and probably just watched some YouTube highlights of streamers finding great rewards and formed an opinion based on that alone. Performance is pretty much the only thing this league that was a fiasco worth complaining about.
Hell, even looking at your 1 Ultimatum character seems to directly contradict your "...6links are thrown in your face so much that you just don't care about them" bit. |

" I believe you have missed your vocation. Saying you love pauses in POE is like saying you love women, but you're dating a boy. Last edited by touldie#7128 on May 24, 2021, 5:18:53 PM

Also dont forget the legendary Trialmaster taunts or complains.
He either wants to be a priest of Yaomac (if you win streak) or constantly remind the player how much/few rounds he has done and sometimes hilariously laughs (like mad Joker) when you die after a win streak. Masterpiece of 3.16 lore "A mysterious figure appears out of nowhere, trying to escape from something you can't see. She hands you a rusty-looking device called the Blood Crucible and urges you to implant it into your body." Only usable with Ethanol Flasks Last edited by gandhar0#5532 on May 24, 2021, 6:32:19 PM

Not only everything the OP said... it's stultifyingly boring, never look at what's offered or the mods, just click and keep killing. *yawn*
But the ritual master guy is about the most annoying character ever put into a game that could not be killed. He reminds me of every teasing bully in third grade. Patch Notes 3.15:
Fixed a bug where players believed the game was playable. This has been corrected and made retroactive. Patch Notes 3.19: Fixed a bug where players adapted to 3.15. This bug cannot be corrected, so we have implemented a 90% reduction in item access as a punishment. |

" +1 I am about to get 39 challenges, but the Trial Master spawn rate is taking longer than the end game grinds. I do not mind a challenge, but when it is hidden behind insane RNG, it definitely takes the fun out of the game. As Albert Einstein so eloquently once said, The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results I am not Anti-Social, I am just selective on whom I wish to be social with.
