What this Passive-Reset Proves.

Oh okay. So your problem is that you have to go to another site to do something? Is that it?

GGG doesn't want to tell players things. Certain kinds of players like that and can avoid any information they don't want to receive.

Other players (like you) do not like that and want all the information they can get. Those players can go to other sites.

I don't see the issue. But please continue.

As for GGG being a god and me having preconceived ideas of your post and all that... nope. I just didn't understand why it took you three paragraphs and multiple bullet points to say something so simple. I don't think GGG are gods, in fact I think they've made a series of bad decisions which have basically killed the fun I used to have with the game. Still, the choices they made aren't 'wrong' they just 'aren't for me' this is an epiphany that you need to have for yourself.

In the end, Your Passive tree is like the Wife who you think you love, but then every other day, you go sleep with another woman who you have an affair with, because at the entire time telling yourself that you love your wife and she's perfect and that you're doing nothing wrong. At the same time, you make up for the shortcomings by going somewhere else. In this case, it being the external tools, lol.

It is a truly sad sack of shit who can empathise with that metaphor.

haha, i might be 22, but iv'e never cheated in 7 years and, when i say something, i try to make sure i an in the position to say it, and it's an analogy, failing to understand which will result in someone being offended. So, i can say this, and still not be a sack of shit, because i never did anything even close to cheating, wonder how many here can say that, but again that's kinda off topic.

On another note, it's mostly taken from a Character in True Detective(Potential Spoiler, "Marty" Who thinks he's a God-believing, righteous, good guy, and is loving towards his family and very protective of them, but goes to fuck his mistress out of the house at the same time calling it a 'necessity' and something that 'people do' (Edit:but Never Blames himself).

And i do not empathise( the very word's meaning does not apply here, which means you are wrong from the very source of your conclusion), lol once again, i am not a low-life who cheats, which some people here will obviously be, since we are all people and most people are low-lives, with no self-control. But again, no need to feel offended, It's just a game, and we're just organisms.


Why do people spark such lengthy responses, when they can just spend a little more time to think before typing?

Fixed.

Too many words and bad flow of content.

That's why they give skill resets. . .

What is the point of the topic? If I made an lighting arrow archer, why the hell wouldn't I choose to make it a lighting arrow archer again if I liked the toon. People don't make the same character because of the reasons you stated.

Other then that you could argue that we should have an testing area before we set any passives in stone.

What this passive tree reset proves, is that any change ever will be complained about ridiculously because people complain if things change.

And gaps between patches prove if you don't change things, people will complain cause it isn't changing.

+1

I dont see it that drastic (for the web tree 'issue), but at least partial he's right.

-the 'things' they tell us - these should be correct; even simple things like the base itemlevels for jewelry are wrong listed since ages, not fixed even along with updates on the same tables.

The passive tree lacks comparability - at the website it did not use/sum up the values of the nodes, even as it have them... and inside the game its a real mess while (re)building a char, to try to trace the progression of the tree point-by-point (and that is the only small option to make before-after comparisions we got)

Since its technically not possible to keep an old tree available online, THIS ability is the main reason I have no issue to use the offline planner (and -always?- will); but they should give an option to check the char stats while having preallocated passives.

What resets prove is: rebuilding is a non-minor effort, sometimes a mess. But its even more an issue, if you try to use this option to respec to another build: you cant re-gear without the needed attributes, and probably dont have leveled gems to change ^^ - but I think there's nothing to do against.

Why would you re roll the same class again, when there's 7 classes with three times game end with each, play through = 21 times ending the game on 7 different classes :V
, since each class gives you a different possibility in the Passive tree, which will all be there even after changes to it ;v. In the end, it's your choice and perception, you would re roll even if a weekly full reset does become available.


A Reset or something similar would not make the game easier. What it would do would be to Simply remove the need for a person to grind the easier bits of the game(on the shame class)(Doesn't the game become easier as we repeat N-C-M again,disproving that it increases challenge). With the same guy, you could be lightning one month, and fire the other, I just don't like to Pretend like the system is working as intended.
