Is there a possibility to reset a zone?

Ctrl+click the entrance or waypoint.

oh that's really cool :) thanks

How can people talk about an end game in a beta ?!

People are comparing PoE to games and judging it as if it was a full release and complete.

OP -

Endgame may be boring, it is an arpg but, you don't know that yet so this post is invalid at least until the game is out of beta.

The end of act3 is coming soon and act 4 will be added. Then lets talk about end game and make judgements.

It's only hard to get the first map. Buy one if you're impatient.

ive only found one map out of a shit ton of runs (crypt map) and cleared it, did not drop even one map.

I found me a map in act 2 merciless that gives more rare spawns and maze while i was grinding xp and chaos resist gear.

are there really idiots trying to justify that this isn't endgame yet? don't give a phuck that it's beta and unfinished. the FACT remains that the current state of the game's endgame IS farming docks UNTIL you have maps.

No, it's what you have chosen to do.

I'm in no position (only lvl19) to judge POE's endgame. But I certainly hope they have more than one clear place to farm at the end-game. Never-ending Act3 farming is a plague to D3 (not just a plague but THE single factor that is driving so many people away), and I have no doubt the same situation here would be met with the same hostility.

Good arpgs provide lots of optiosn for the end-game. Hopefully POE will get to that point someday. Regardless, POE is judged on what it is NOW, now what it will be in some unknown future.

End game is maps, not docks. Obviously the OP has been farming docks in hopes of getting maps and has not had much luck. Some of it is probably RNG... I've run into this situation. I did find that if you make sure that your maps have at least 25% quantity on them you are likely to at least replace any map when running it.

On a side note, perhaps it would be good to have a quest reward for killing piety on Merciless of 1 map of your choosing in addition to the 2 skill points. Give everyone a jump on getting to end game. Because it certainly is possible for a player who does not frequent the forums to have no idea about maps if one never drops before merciless ends.

The problem with act 3 are those jumping naughty mobs and the arc shooting mages that you cant evade

you can kill the mages first, there are only 2-3 per mob.

as for map rarity, increasing map drop rates would just lead to people reaching the max level earlier. nothing more.

The problem is they shoot off screen and if i don't have piercing shots or something to hit them from far away while avoiding other mobs?

What are you going to do when you run into them in maps? Oh yeah, die. So why do you want to do maps again?

If you are complaining about random Act3 mobs being too hard to farm, then maps shouldn't even be a concern for you.

Remember when end-game meant your game had ended?
