XP loss on death = time loss. Time loss = frustration/negative feelings.

Honestly GGG is more likely to increase the EXP requirement to 100 than remove the death penalty. It's just not gonna happen.

And I know how frustrating it can be. I died 3 times at 99. But I still really do believe the penalty is an actual requirement for the game. It would change the game if death doesn't hurt.

I work full time, sometimes i get 5 hours in a week to play this game, dying at 97 or 98 literally kills 2 hours out of that 5.

A good penalty would be losing all xp gained in that instance or map, not a flat 10% rate.


Then either brush up your mechanical skills or build something that's tankier than that glass cannon glad. The solution is the same for every single pve game.
Glass cannon? I have literally every level of mitigation possible on a melee character.
Mechanical skills do not remove screen clutter or lag.

I thought you were joking at first, but it looks like you're being serious. You absolutely do not have anywhere close to every damage mitigation on that glad. You have 18% phys damage reduction, 34% if your fortify is still up, you don't have 73% against actual 1 shots. Your resistances are basic. You have 5k hp. The only thing stopping you from being complete glass cannon is that you're max block. Max block doesn't solve 1 shot problems, it solves shotgunning effects like any of eradicator's moves. That's not something you would ever choose to gamble on facetanking things like shaper slam or whatever.

You know what's funny is how you think mechanical skill doesn't have much merit in this game meanwhile people like alkiezer and darkee rarely die... ever. Good players don't just rush into trash packs and get dicked over. Even if you factor in bullshit things like bugs and dc's, it's still a once in a 3 or 4 league occurrence that you'll see these kind of players die at all.

I think you are looking at the wrong character or have no idea what you are talking about.
I LITERALLY have 73% BASE phys mit tool tip BEFORE fortify which is IN my 6 link and always up.
I clearly do not stand in shaper slams because i am not a moron.
Where do you propose a melee sword and board finds more res cap whilst still being able to kill these RIDICULOUS 80,000,000,000 hp bosses?
There is a BUNCH of alkaizer, darkee, krip and quinny hc deaths on youtube btw.

The fact that you're looking at the tooltip for phys damage reduction says you don't know what you're doing.

Hey guess what I looked up the last alkeizer rip video on youtube. He actually recently died like 3 days ago. You know the last rip video of him was before that? 3 fucking years ago.
Literally a thread about how the game is not good for people who have limited time to play, your example to emulate: LITERALLY GUY WHO PLAYS THIS GAME AS A JOB.
Just get out of this thread simp.
Thread about how crap game is for casual players.
supersimp "HERRPPP ITS YOUR FAULT FOR TRUSTING TOOL TIPS IN THE GAME YOU PLAY HERRRPRPP" Ever think thats the EXACT POINT I AM MAKING HERE?
I as a guy who actually has a job and does not live in his parents basement, have to go get third party programs to work out exact ehp so i do not get one shot and lose 3 hours work..
And you are here slobbing away and acting like this is the greatest system to ever exist..

You didn't shit on anything, your argument that in game tool tips are worthless literally shoots your entire side of the argument to shit, go read what this topic is about then ram your face through a brick wall.
The life card being played in a thread about how the game is shithouse for people who do not play it as a job is perfectly relevant.

You've been playing this game since 2012 and you still have no idea what is wrong with looking at tooltip phys damage reduction.

You registered in 2012. You should be embarrassed that you're still lacking this much understanding what most people consider to be.. the basics of the game.

I'm not bothering wasting any more time on this garbage. Go ask literally anyone what's wrong with reading the phys damage reduction on the ingame tooltip. There's a forum specifically created to help noobs with basic gameplay mechanics, it's called gameplay discussions. Go ask there.
