Don't nerf Syndicate encounters
" So what makes my example a misuse exactly, when we don't see anything about you? O.o And yes, skipping Syndicate is possible. You either make them stuck at the Safehouse stage, and then no Syndicate encounter spawns at all until you don't complete at least one of them OR (the easier method) when you encounter a Research lab you don't go down, thus it will keep repeating on every map, because until you don't engage with a Syndicate event, it keeps respawning forever. That's how they did it. I didn't whisper to you because I don't have the required maps to give it to you, so I can only witness you doing your own maps, which is fine by me, but my assumption is that after I told you you are getting the maps, you won't agree to that - which is fine, I never told you to do it that way -, so until others don't offer said maps to you, we wait. |

" After some time see that poe db shows lvl 1, 68, 73, 78, 82 stats for seemingly ANY enemy. So, I see no logic in thinking that Syndicate members level is tied to their rank. Neither, I say, they seem being exactly as difficult on lower tier maps as on higher ones. Janus swords are doing 3k damage on ~t5 with no rank (map does not have any damage empowering mods). |

" Yeah, honestly I've fought with countless 3 or 2 star opponents, but I haven't seen that much of a difference. Some members are a pushover, no matter what, and some (ie. Janus) are absolutely terrifying even on 0 stars. A more streamlined progression with more visible rewards would be better. The scaling of whether you will face a strong or weak enemy and whether you get good or bad loots is absolutely all over the place. The only thing consistent is that they give decent XP. I don't even care if they halve or even take away the XP bonus, just make it more balanced and understandable. Edit: lol... T9 map, cruising thorugh everything including the boss, so I thought why not take on the fortification b4 I leave? I'm facetanking the lured out 1 star Tora with 1 item + the fortification guns. No problem. Then Janus (??????????????????) oneshots my 5200 hp. I didn't even know he was there, but he just did that within the Fortress. The level of Janus? 0. His items? None. Excuse me?!

" Map mods + lvl of the zone. That's what scales syndicate. Rank just give them items, that are certainly powerful, but map mods are the reason why they are rippy. |

i killed a lieutenant janus earlier and didn't even notice him.

" Lol, what is there to Master into getting 1 shot in softcore or hardcore ? a) Shocked Ground. 1 shot. If you get hit from 10k you just learned what ? That you shouldnt play maps ? b) crit chance + crit mult + extra damage as element = 1 shot. You learned that no one should play those mods ? c) Boss fight, you get stunned, intervention show up! Dead You learned that you shouldnt fight bosses ??? d) You open a box and become surrounded. You dont have phase run and intervention show up. You learned that every builds now need phase run ??? e) And so on... Im way confused. It's like if you said that getting raped was a learning experience. It sure wouldnt feel good and there nothing useful to learn about it aside that it was a bad experience that should never exist in the first place. |

WHY TRY TO LEARN WHEN YOU CAN STUBBORNLY INSIST NOTHING'S YOUR FAULT?
i like how defense/mechanics/user error never even figured into your hyperbole. edit: i took a look at your build. just... wow. that 114 armor looks to be your only source of phys mitigation. i can see why you'd refuse to adapt and just blame the game. it's weird how builds with ZERO FREAKIN' DEFENSE have survivability problems, isn't it?

 Here we go again, Incursion 101. Shotgunning is back on the menu. +2 projectile mod completely obliterate any sense of remaining balance. Offscreen annihilated. By the ads btw, not Syndicate. It's like fucking chaos porcupines. Last edited by Sixtysan#6617 on Dec 16, 2018, 11:48:59 AM

" You seem to be playing quite the glass canon. SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.
