Exp Loss is freaking unbalanced

" Dunno about Diablo, but WoW smartly resets the encounter if you die, and you are also unable to play the portal game in it "shit I'll portal to town now to fill flasks&health&mana, brb Piety, hold on, don't heal yourself KK?". PoE allows by design such cheesy mechanisms. I used them myself with Cruel Vaal, 15-20 portal scrolls used, no deaths. Take the cheese out of PoE, and don't allow these crap methods, and you won't have anybody death-zerging anything, because, well, it won't be possible. Then, there would be absolutely no reasons for anybody to fear death-zerging any longer, and it couldn't be even mentioned in a debate about the XP penalty any more, because on death, you'd reset to some default location and have to start over, do the boss in one take successfully, or die again, reset again, and hopefully learn something from your mistakes. placeholder for creative sig Last edited by Undon3#5633 on Mar 29, 2013, 4:52:22 AM

The only time I ever brought up D3 zerging was when the game was new and people did actually zerg to get to Diablo.

Are people just making up game terms nowadays?
Zerging... WTF. Zerg: alien race that is dangerous due to it's incredible amount of numbers. Zerg rush: a strategy in Starcraft where you run straight at your enemy at the start with very few forces. This worked because early game zerg had the best units. "To zerg" - verb: To do something with huge numbers to remove any skill required. You cant "zerg" in a game with limited party members. "zerging" diablo... it's called rushing, not zerging. Rushing = doing something fast (hence zerg rush: attack right at the start). Stop making up pointless words that do nothing but add flavour to something that already exists. All you do is creating terminology that makes you look idiotic. |

Gaise.... obviously his problem with 30% exp in 10h is that he's using voidhome

" Do you hear yourself? Whaaat? Stratery in the mindless grinding game? The purpose of the game is to kill myriad of monsters and get loot, roll loot, orbs and that shit. I want to rest while playing the game because, surprise surprise, this is game about GRIND. If i would ever want to play strategy i would play it. That kind of games are different, they don't require to play 10 hours straight, but less than an hour with max attention. POE is a game about GRIND. |

lol... more proof you have no idea about ARPG's undon... go play diablo 1 & 2, torchlight etc.
Comparing certain aspects of wow to this game... well I suppose are okay. But in too many ways to count WoW and any ARPG are very, very, VERY different. Again, you seem to be a smart guy... you just have no idea what you're talking about. Remember my "cheeks" comment? You're still doing it /sigh |

" Thats funny, because the aRPG's you just mentioned have an much much much more lenient death penalty than PoE |
