Takes like half a day if you have some lvling gear setup, you're playing a build that plays well in low lvls and u know what you're doing :)

Now if u dunno what you're doing, the build doesn't play well during low lvls and u don't have lvling gear, then yeah... obv takes longer.

1: Lack of leveling catch up mechanics..speaking as a person who likes to play 3-4 toons each league lack of a way to boost a second or 3rd or 4th toons to a reasonable level, is one of the things that is making this game unenjoyable for me ( yeah i know you can Plvl in the mines , but then you still have to run the story through, which still takes 4 or 5 hours even over leveled)

2: lack of UI customization. plain and simple d3 can do it cuase their game is streamlined for it and every thing in the game was designed around a unchangeable UI , this game is not, buffs are too small, tool tips dont even give proper info.

3: basic quality of life changes. Auto tab sorting,auto pick up in a aoe radius with a single button push, basically the things a certain hud i shall not name allowed you to do before the crack down on it. and the things that the china servers have as options.Better HP bars on mobs,i mean come on most mobs i cant see till they are hitting me or i have managed to hit them , simply cause they are almost always the same color pallette as the map tileset.

4: with the community being the ones who decide the economy of this game, and RNG being what it is , it means that every league some people just will not be able to complete certain things, no matter what they do , simply cause they wont get the drops that are worth anything, be it either raw or trade currency.
If RNG is going to remain as f**ked as it is , then either we need a store with random high value items are a reasonable price point , or we need to flat out remove anything that is a clear price fix, cause with the influx of stupid people in this game who think any 6l chest is a ex at least, prices have gone out of control and unless you are RMT, or just very dam lucky you cant get gear anymore.

all in all, PoE is a great game, one i have spent a fair amount of money on over the years on multiple accounts ( my wife played for a bit then stopped playing) I would love to see the game keep growing and eventually become the number one Arpg on the market, but i just dont see it happening with out some changes.

I just thought of something that hasn't been mentioned.

Sometimes in the middle of a battle with all the effects going on, it is common to visually lose the location of the mouse cursor. It would be nice to have an option for a larger more visually striking mouse cursor.

@Cazzius

1.There's scaling now, there's leeching etc.
2.Yeah would be nice to have some more UI options.
3.AoE loot is not a thing that should belong in PoE imho. Yeah having hp bars on mobs BEFORE you hit them, would be nice.
4.I mean... it's more about knowledge of the game/time you put in/efficiency. You don't need to be super lucky or whatever. If you play enough and you play efficiently, you will easily make enough currency to buy what you need... unless you have some extreme goals. Dunno i don't personally need more than 10 ex (easymode to make) to clear all or almost all of the content in the game in a new league and get to 36 challs. Could even go for 39 if i wanted to, but cba :)
5.It IS the flagship arpg currently though :D

Yeah that has happened a few times to me too xD

Spot on accurate 100%

Particularly the XP penalty.

amazing game

No in game auction house, or any in game actualized economy based spot to spend and or sell stuff. That you have to utilize a very poorly made third party website to facilitate the games trading functions. Besides that nothing really bad with POE, oh yea LET ME USE BOTH MY TITANS SLI TOGETHER, not make me turn one off just to utilize full game functionality.

that is all from me
