Biggest LIE in PoE HisStory

Nice bait. Dude has 5 level 100 characters pinned on his profile.

EXP penalty is there to promote the acquisition of defense otherwise you'd forgo all defense for offense. For the average player, accept that your build is done at level 90. 90 is easy to achieve even with the occasional death.

If you want to take a build past 90, build tanky and don't do the following: super dangerous map mod combinations, deep delves, uber Elder, Synthesis maps, or uber Atziri.

In order to level up after lvl 94, you have to literally stop dying. Let's say you die once every 50 maps, but you need to run 500 maps to go from 96 to 97. In that case you wouldn't even gain experience in the long run.

So, that's the current problem of the game. You need to mindlessly grind for xp and currency, for hundreds of maps, with no other objective.

I would say, make the level cap achievable for everyone and find another endgame, grinding currency until you get bored and start hating the league or the game itself doesn't sound really healthy.

You can add crazy uber missions that not everybody is supposed to beat. Or difficulty scaling content like delve, but less monotonous.

Your numbers are way off unless you are running yellow maps to level. More like 100 maps from 96 to 97...NOT 500 - 500 is 98 to 99 and 1000 from 99-100. There you better not die yes. That's why I usually quit around 97-98. Not only is it not fun anymore because my toon has been played to death by then one mistake is days work.

What do you care about that for anyway? some of the best players usally stop around 93 like mathil. Unless you are having fun with it you're chasing arbitray numbers which seems to me bullshit. Games made to be beat at around level 92-93 since thats when all gems 20/20 with manual rollovers. Everything else is superfoulous and a fuck ton of tedious low risk work. This game has enough tedium high 90's leveling is a total waste of time.

Like you can make literally 8 end game lvl 93 toons in time it takes to make 1 lvl 100.

The change your build argument kinda falls flat when you can just zerg anyway.

I'd rather the option to start the whole map/boss realm over, forfeiting all drops, breaches, etc, be granted the lost xp upon completing the new instance, and for drops to come at the end like in delve. The option could even be granted by some consumable item. Better than the current nonsense that does nothing aside from annoy at best.

just stop dying Kappa

Is he being that straight out lie in the face ?

Just gives us option to make polls in forum, and after 1 week (so someone has time to cancel the spam bots votes) everyone will settle down to the well know truth.

AT LEAST 60-70% of players are complaining about the exp loss on death. PERIOD.

Just because 40-50 people who have a lot of followeres say it's ok, doesnt mean their followers agree, they just dont have the same voice power to be heard as ez as the liers.

NO ONE LIKES DEATH PENALTY - ITS A WELL KNOWN FACT.

NO ONE IS COMPLAINING ? the comunity thanks you for showing u dont know what ur comunity complains about...or likes.

Nobody I know has ever complained about it.

Your imagination about what other people think is of course meaningless. You should work on learning that.

saying 60-70% and that no one likes the penalty is obviously wrong. but...



when chris said no one is complaining about the death penalty me and my friends in discord literally laughed out loud. theres been 1-3 threads in the feedback forum complaining about it virtually at every point in time for the 6 years this game has existed. after trade sucks and melee sucks its probably the 3rd largest, longest standing complaint about the game.

"AT LEAST 60-70% of players are complaining about the exp loss on death. PERIOD."

Citation please.

Players should absolutely be punished for dying. The exp loss is fine.

THIS... just... mind numbing repetition; rinse and repeat ad nauseum... It'd be cool if I could choose the league mechanics I want for my character (up to 3, plus the current league mechanic, which affect only that char or other players in that character's party).

Or... do away with the level cap entirely. Just let people keep mindlessly grinding away. Lvl 100 should be achievable without group chayula runs all day for weeks. Level 200 should take like 6 bloody months of 8 hour a day mindless grinding with a bot sniffer watching your account like a hawk.

I heard someone saying that if you keep your life pool above or equal to 1 you could stay alive, I never though on that. best advice ever! I'd recommend it!

Trade being 'fine' is the biggest lie.

Immediately after some forum troll says trade is great, you go on to trade and send 30 messages and get no item, and its so obvious how bad trade is.

Phraxx, Shagsbeard, looking at your here, but there are others as well. "Trade is great as is!" Then trade immediately fails at being fun, immersive, practical, reasonable, logical, and simply a fair minded game mechanic.


Trade is garbage, end of Fing story.
