Improvements to Leveling Experience. Here are some serious (non-casual) Suggestions!
Not only.
It never only is because of repetition, there is always the time element to consider. Another element is that that "boring" process and its length is related to the amount of disenjoyment the player will have, and therefore his/her need to want a change from it. So by going faster : - might feel less bored ( yes ) - might not feel that much of a need to ask for a change SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.

Ok, so we have a thread here in feedback saying: Bored from repetition.
And Fruz is like, nah bro let me really tell you why you feel bored. You suck. Seems legit. I'm a forum warrior, i was born to post, raised to defend my league. Now my post has been removed, chained and exiled by mods who Ban. Ban is my brother; i do not fear it. I see it in the eyes of men and beasts that i troll. It will take me to play the actual game when i am ready and i am not ready.

" It's only boring if it's bad designed. For example, it's boring because you have to play the four acts 3 times before getting into maps. It's boring because quests dont feel rewarding (shitty rare items... wow). It's boring because you have to waste time with the story quests everytime again. The process of killing stuff itself is not boring however. I always love the point when I can finaly equip a build enhancing piece of equipment. This moment, when you play Earthquake and you are able to equip a woodcutter unique with good rolls. It always feels great when the monsters start to get one-shotted or your build pays off and it starts to get better and better the more levels you get. My current Earthquaker Gladiator is a good example for that. I started to play him and it really sucked at the start. It was hard to get a good block chance and since I grabbed the shield nodes and wanted to go for one-handed mace, my EQ didn't do much damage at the start. Gladiator really starts to shine, when you get 4 AC points, since block chance = spell block chance and when you finaly get to the good mace nodes at the maurauder side. Around lvl 40-50 my character began to really rock. I could literally tank everything thanks to 60% (spell-)blockchance and thanks to the mace nodes, my EQ started to do lots of damage. Now I'm lvl 71 and my build starts to pay off (78% blockchance, 10k EQ dps with a 4L) . So you can't say it is boring to level a character, because it isn't. It just needs some tweaks to improve the whole experience. |

There is no challenge. It's pointless.
GGG listened to too much "Normal should be the tutorial" feedback and now we have what we have; sleepwalking until merciless. I'm a forum warrior, i was born to post, raised to defend my league. Now my post has been removed, chained and exiled by mods who Ban. Ban is my brother; i do not fear it. I see it in the eyes of men and beasts that i troll. It will take me to play the actual game when i am ready and i am not ready. Last edited by Pyrokar#6587 on Jul 7, 2016, 7:01:17 AM

" Or you don't get it. ( -> never said what you are implying, just in case, not that it matters I guess ) Edit ( because not worth bumping this, especially because of you not understanding what I say ) : Never said that anyone sucked here. I said that time had an obvious part to play in how fast one would get bored. Captain obvious one more time but hey .... So yeah, instead of spending your time here ( which ends up being QQs, not only but still ), you could be productive, and by being faster, you might be lessed bored, or ou would at least spend less time being bored, since you are already. But you could keep doing the ostrich policy like you have been doing the last posts, do whatever you like. Are you putting the "you suck" that you brought yourself here with what I said, because you are convinced that ou do ? sad SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.

" You are not fast. You suck. Therefore you are bored. Do you understand what you are saying? " I am fast. I don't suck. I am still bored. " You don't go fast. You suck. You get bored. ????

" I get this same feeling. I am about to start my 5th character this league, and in no way think GGG is crapping on me as an altaholic, as has been stated in this thread and others. For me, It's definatly about watching the character grow and achieve it's goals within the framework of the build idea. Improvements can definatly be made, and I wholeheartedly believe that not only will pre-leveled characters never be a thing, but they should never be a thing. |

I wish your posts weren't a thing, because they never add anything to the topic.
You're just now starting your 5th character and we're 5 weeks (?) into the league? Please. You are not part of the altoholic demographic that I've been talking about. I had 5 characters before the first week was done, and the boredom of leveling them is why I stopped leveling them. Their builds aren't part of the experience until about level 50-60, so anything before is just a brainless, tedious, waste-of-time snore-fest. Tired of trolls? Ignore them. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1473168 Last edited by Albinosaurus#7360 on Jul 7, 2016, 10:23:26 AM

How can I get behind anything of the non-casual persuasion? HOW??

" ... And not everyone can play like 10+ hours a day like you. For having 5 characters before the first week was done, it's kinda embarassing that you only have 17 completed challanges. I play like 2-3 hours a day (sometimes I dont even have that much time) and I still managed to get 3 characters above lvl 80 (one died though) and another over 50. For me, that's enough playtime to consider myself an active player. Btw.: Your posts also never add something of value to the threads. You are only attacking/provoking other participants and undermine their opinions, saying their point of view is unrelevant. So if you can't post in a normal polite manner, then don't post anything at all please. |
