Is legacy league true showcase how not to do league?

Does this game need to have true sadistic development?

Reilc keys in league almost not drop, at last not for me and many ppl who i know, 1 key, two chars lvl90/94, i dont know how much maps played around 500+, and that relic treasure drop, omg can u rlly call taryn's shiver staff +1 legacy item? That is not only false relic/legacy item, it is one of 1000 lies what some sadist put in rolling trash can named treasury.
Good Leaguetones like breach, beyond are rare to drop, but u will get shit like prophecy leaguestones dozen tnx for already established shitty conditioned RNG.
And rlly breach/essence/... leagustone gives only one breach? Wasn't that leagustone flashback into that league? Was that league only one breach/essence per area or random? That is all wrong and league spirit is lost like that relic (legacy) thing.

Without good leaguestones this league is over for me and I know I am not alone, as I seeing already league dying, my friend list who shows online is shorter and shorter, and it is not month passed, well done.

This game does not have any part of true old-school RPG RNG, only condition after condition, soo much conditions which prevent (control) good roll in function make this game shit, with drop and at the end performance, game struggle more and more on many machines where before was working flawless, those condition RNG disease overloaded all functions in game starting from dmg, crafting, thru drop,..

Finally the one who regards I suggest to re-think to change the strategy from the sadistic ill development into let make something fun. After all not all players are masochists.

I get lots of breach and beyond stones. The reliquary keys are stupid rare but they aren't the main draw of the league for me.

Only thing I want is more blue stones :P

You could pretty much tell when announcements came that it wouldn't be that great since there is nothing new added really. It's a filler league designed to let people run crazy map mods and get cool combinations of legacy gear. They can't add 6 new acts every new league. Wouldn't surprise me if they started adding a new lab every league though.

I haven't played since the new league started but, a friend said that he quit because the one-shot mechanics seemed extra bad this league. Anyone else see this?

There's no buff in damage. Some league combos are very dangerous, like beyond and breach. Cancer x2

the league mechanic is trully a filler used to a) keep up the hype generated by 3.0 b) purposedly not good enough so people will abandon it happily and do a beta test

these stones are weird - some are clearly superior (even one breach gives much more ENJOYMENT and loot than 'one tormented spirit'), some are weird, some are shades of former self (warbands, tempests), some are just very werid (essences, prophecy - these things are already in the game so why?)

i run 3 mods all the time and except for some rare combos (i do not put any effort into min-maxing this stuff and buy the 'great' stones etc) it feels exactly like standard.

one observation - breach is by far the best of the leagues so far. everything else is bland and 'do not care' (except shrines + The Gull)

Give me that cancer, i leveled with that both chars in this league, but on maps drop is low of breach and beyond stones for me, i got many from friends who avoid it, but i am eating them too fast and new dont drop. Drop mechanics of league stone is shit got 100 prophecy leaguestones on one breach, that is disaster and i blame implementation of sadistic condition RNG. (And yes I vendor-ed all those prophecy stones and got more similar useless shit, ty RNG sadistic person who made that algorithm)

One of prefect league was extra all league mods in perandus league, where I enjoyed during weekends with all league mods on, devastation and death everywhere.

BTW. After that broken ascendancy expansion this game become easier then Pokemon Online and in same time boring, we need more hardcore game in meaning content not grind, hope Oriath will give some hardness.

Best leagues imo:
1. Beyond
2. Breach
3. Perandus (i like those mobs, fck useless cadiro and coins)

I don't really mind relic keys not dropping for me, it's just an extra and the chance to get something really good is miniscule because many of those oldtime broken uniques are actually fine by today's standards. It's just a collector's perk.

However, I do agree some leaguestones are bland to the point of uselessness, warbands is probably the best example.

On the bright side, one of my favorite leagues is back, slowly working towards those Eyes of Greatwolf

I wish people would stop with the term "cancer" at forums, as there are people who truly suffer from it and I am very sad how you make fun about something so serious...
