Sorry but incursions just suck
After getting through 33 incursions and 3 temples I have finally stopped doing them altogether, and the game is more fun for it.
If this "thing" makes it into the core game (please no!), I want a way to assassinate Alva so I don't have to do an incursion or hear her jabbering about them ever again. |

Incursions were only included in the early acts because of the league. You can't have a league where you don't experience it from the start. People just wouldn't put up with that. But it wasn't designed to support that. The difficulty doesn't "ramp up". You will find that later in the game incursions are more balanced.
I don't expect to see them in Acts 1-5, or even 1-10 when they adopt this to core. |

I Alva be more rare - like abyss currently (i see them very, very rarely) then it would be a much more appricieated. Also maby some time booster to incrusions because with such rarity making them will be pain in the arse.

Why play a slow clear speed, special snowflake build and then complain about incursion timers? I really don't get it : /

My ssf experience this league. I've tried SRS necromancer, elemental claw Spectral Throw build (gem swap), btw Vaal ST is a joke, Wild Strike berserker (gem swap), ED-Wither-Contagion-Vaal Blight. All stuff with 6 link, 20/20 gems and right builds, I know what I'm talking, they all suck at Incursions because mechanic (not always but it's annoying and happens frequently).
But my 5-link BV broken inpulsa destroys things just like - POP(c)Bex. Power creep is real, gameplay speed is out of control, shield charge op, build diversity is a myth. Peace. |

There are lots of builds that work well. I wanted to play Icetraps instead of Arc, but the gear I found during my SSF experience was too good to pass up on that. I do play some non-meta builds, though, and they can clear Incursions just fine. :)
The opposite of knowledge is not illiteracy, but the illusion of knowledge.

" Exactly right and I've already stated so in this thread. "You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone..."

" When incursions merge into the standard leagues come end of this challenge league is the known fact that GGG nerfs the spawn rates into the ground. Some one said it's like 1/10th the challenge league spawn rate. That's just too low to be of much fun. I vary rarely find breaches and abysses now and while fun to do the frequency of finding one is way too low. Incursions are good for xp because of the rooms higher mob density and when nerfed to the same spawn rate as breaches and abysses that'll make them another "damn it's way past 'just in time'... Alva where the hell have you been?'". "You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone..."

incursions suck, i have a level 93 and 91 char in this league and with the 91 i only did the temple 2 times, i just ignore alva, not because i canr clear the incursions,its because the loot sucks and its a waste of time, so its the temple,nothing good ever dropped,and the chances of dying is much higher than in maps so its really not worth it.

" Thats the point GGG need to answer to themselfes what game they wamt to do? Speed up like corpo world speed speed effect speeed die oh fuck speed speed speeed effect speeed speeed speeed effect oh shit... seed seeed oh die Or something more like dance - enjoying the experience itself and the rest is just something that happens. Oh look something new! Something nice! Look at that, usefull? Not really but interesting but lest dance... Thats it. Simple. Future will show what direction they will take, i hope dance one. |
