Very unhappy with passive point transfer in standard

3 hours already in and Ive doone all the quests. But I have no chance to kill or even see kitava :D I wanted to burst her with my 93 char, but nope.
I too went to sleep after I noticed what is going on

Ok, so apparently there are 23 passive points now (if you dont take eramir bandit reward). That means doing 22 quests isn't it? So much fun

Last but not least, my fps are now so bad... Nothing helps.
Why bother finding a Mirror of Kalandra if it can be [Removed by Support]
Killing the Elder or Shaper while following someone's build is like finding a street using google maps - such an achievement!
I totally agree with OP and others. Really having main quests done, also one of them is "failed" (ravenous god). Some areas we cannot access as they were "completed", no clue about what to do, which side quests are remaining.... Totally disconnected from story. I feel all this extremely underwhelming and very very bad implemented for Std players.

Why it was not possible to start from act4 at the end before the ancent to see the new acts, quests...etc normally. What is the f*g problem to do low quests with high characters? at least we see the lore of the story as happened with previous expansions, which in that case we were doing act3/act4 in 3 difficulties each for getting the skill points. What is the problem to do this at least with one character to unlock the map device? If other std players do not want to do the quests, at least this option should have be given to those that want!!! Because it is anyway bad to grand the map device but not all skill points as people have to check what to do to retreive them. So bad love and implementation for Std supporters.
yeah I dont know if you got the memo

but GGG really doesn't care all that much about standard

this is just more evidence of that
I dont see any any key!

Yes, I totally agree with that. Std players should have got the opportunty to discover new acts, new quests (one appears as failed which bothers me a lot), fight kitava... And the argument of "what is the point of doing low lvl with high characters" is not valid as this happened before with new act 3 and 4 which we did for each difficulty. Honestly for High characters the time of doing new acts vs check which quests are not done plus not knowing what the hell is going on, is almost the same... I feel really bad for this extremely bad implementation to Std characters. I will always remember this for sure.

So, how does it work now?

I have a level 91 char that had 108 skill points priot to 3.0. Now with 3.0 I had only 98 Skillpoints. That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Here is a list circulating with quests you need to redo to get your skillpoints back.

But to me it seems I already have the quests from act 1 to 4 completed? Do I still need to redo them? I just tried to kill the dweller from the deep straight, but I didn't get a skillpoint or anything for it.

Do I miss something?
All they *needed* to do, if this was all about giving standard players access to maps, was to enable the Epilogue map with access to the Templar Laboratory with the map device (or give everyone Zana in their hideouts?) I mean... really... THIS was their best solution?

I was fully expecting to wake up in Standard at the end of Act 4, ready to explore the new acts. This was highly anticlimactic, with spoilers EVERYWHERE. Very unhappy with how this was handled.

100% agree. Std players should have got 2 options: (1) all main/side quests done, so one can map with all skill points, and make new char to see story. (2) you start at the end of act 4 and discover gradually the rest (as happened before). Instead we got a very bad mixture of the two, we have access to maps but need to find side quests for getting skill points without knowing what happened.... seriously I have never been posting so much in the forums. My hype to play is 0%. So little love to Std...I will remember.

I really wanted to try the Kitava fight but it seems GGG fucked it up.
My builds are now gimped to shit because I had to put points in shit areas just to get the stats to wear my gear because of pathing issues due to lack of passives just so I could do the side quests to get the passives I should have been given. So my full scale passives reset meant nothing. I now need 100 regrets on each char to fix it.
