what the difference between sc and hc?

I know that if you died once from hc you will be move to sc.
what the difference about from hc to sc?

From the gameplay standpoint there is no difference.

The only difference is the economy, where on HC there is less inflation, since when people die they get kicked out of the league with their nice equipment on.

Oh, yeas and there are less annoying kids & noobs on HC, since they get weed out early on.

interesting

The game is the same, but builds usually are completely different in hc and default (in this and other games).

Also worth of items. Things with +life usually worth a lot more in hc than default, and the economy changes a lot too, because there is no good item forever, they disappear. So less items available.

Also low-medium level items can worth more than default, because people are rerolling and need those items for survive (default players just got rushed and didnt need resis or life until endgame if they choose to not have them, they're not in a real need of them).


But the most important different for me is the playstyle. Characters in hc and default usually are as different as day and night. Ones normally go for dps, and others for survive skills/spells/playstyle.

There are also exceptions, ofc.

There is no glass-canon build or almost I guess, since you can't afford to die to stay in the league and a single desync ( as it happens VERY often atm ) can just kill you.

So from what I've read/seen, only tanks there, I can imagine that everything must worth more, since going to the top levels is so much more difficult ( and you don't drop much below lmvl ~60 maybe )

sizes of ego

The amount of times each player has pressed Alt F4 also happens to be linked to which league. And how much a little bit of desync matters to you. And the amount of true build diversity.

Besides Trading, Builds and effectivity of public parties there is no difference.

Usually you can join any party End of Cruel/Merciless and it will work out, while in Default players keep dying every mob.

Every HC player abuses this so really, there is no difference in modes.

You watched too many Krippers/Nugiyen or other popular HC streams.

Those players play much, they aren't good players.
Just check their vids when they enter a map named Maze.
You will never see them enter the 4th room because they know that "Shadow of Vaal" will send them to Default.

Good players handle situations carefully and almost never have to Exit the Game.
