isnt it about time we got rid of the Labarynth Ascencion requirements???
" I was referring to the endgame lab taking more than 10 minutes. On the ladder the medium time was close to 30 minutes. The ladder had the fastest times of the day for the characters. There were almost always a few times in the 10 minute range but those were lab runners with lab running builds posting their fastest times of the day. A 10 minute run through the endgame lab for someone that only does lab for the ascendancy points is not a reasonable expectation. But you're right. Perhaps they were talking about running a lab trial in 10 minutes or something. That would be more reasonable.

"Power creep. I didnt get my Labyrinth points until level 88 because i didnt need them, i only ended up getting them for extra power as well, not because i absolutely needed them. Some builds you need the quirky passives in ascendencies but quite frankly where we are at now in the game, you quite literally dont need them. Just like you dont have to use a Timeless Jewel or spec into a Cluster Jewel. Harvest sucks! But look at my decked out gear two weeks in!

"Why are you still posting false stuff about lab? Ive been gone 4 years and youre still saying the same false stuff. I was competing in top 100 lab runners with dual bright beak on weapon swap and running in under 5 minutes, generally i was getting 3:30-4 and that was before everyone started to cheese it with Dreamfeather QOTF speed builds and running through in 2 minutes. Theres literally a layout page that shows you exactly where to go every single day now which wasnt even something we had back then, at least not that i remember. Edit- Point. It didnt take 10 minutes back then when it was objectively harder, it certainly doesnt take 10 minutes now with power creep. If you wanted to complain about how theyve changed things like implementing movement totems that damage on movement skill use being counter intuitive because the meta is movespeed in the labyrinth, id agree. However the argument of "it takes long to do" is false. I havent had a single friend take 10 minutes to do lab since OG release. Its in and out in 5 minutes or less just like any general map youd run. Harvest sucks! But look at my decked out gear two weeks in! Labyrinth salt farm miner.

Lab is absolutely the least fun thing I have done in POE.
I do it, get my points, and never go back. If I was to change anything about lab, I would give players who are trying to get their points 6 attempts like any other map. Once a player starts farming lab, then go back to the single death rule. |

I also hate Lab, my worst thing in the whole game. Although some enjoy it so I wouldn't want it removed. Instead, I think you should have a choice. If you want to run Lab, you can do it and get your Ascendancy points as soon as you qualify by completing the Trials. But if you want to not do Lab, you get them assigned automatically but later than the Lab runners would get them.
So maybe you'd get your first two points automatically after Act 5 Kitava, the second two after Act 10 Kitava, the third two after completing ten yellow maps and the final two after doing 25 red maps, something like that? Otherwise do it by character level. This way, Lab remains as an option (like Delve, etc) for those who like doing it. And there's an inducement to do it by getting your Ascendancy points earlier. Those who don't want to do it can skip it but accept a slight penalty in getting the Ascendancy points later. |

" What I said was true. You are discussing the fastest times for lab runners. I made it clear that I was not. It is stupid and ridiculous to claim that someone that only runs lab for the ascendancy punts would run lab in 10 minutes or less. Please stop lying.

If you think "You shouldn't have to do lab" is a legit argument then "You don't need ascendancy" should be equally legit.
Hey man you don't have to do lab. You can do pretty well without it. Just skip it of you don't like it. Berek's Grip Ice Spear

with enough phy dmg reduction and life regen, you can literally walk through most traps and just laugh. Izaro is a piece of cake if you are smart enough to get some damn Chaos res in your build as well as enough phy dmg red. and choosing a Full Shakari Minor Pantheon power. If you really want to complain about him being overtuned, you could always try the ilvl 83 for 6 enchants where Izaro dmg gets buffed, or complain about trap dmg, you can run the lvl83 one that grants belt enchants. Either way, Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance (The 7 P's). Good Luck!

"Every person who entered lab back then got tagged on the leaderboards for it. Also show me proof that the average was 10 minutes. You cant because it wasnt. Even if it was that includes people doing it for the first time, or people who have done it but dont know where to go or how to actually traverse it. This also doesnt account for the fact that many people intentionally in there for full completeion runs take longer. [Removed by Support] [Removed by Support] Harvest sucks!
