Scourge "lose xxx life when moving to nightmare" and CI

I already have zealot oath, i regen around 4k ES per sec. I Saïd "i can get instakilled" if incoming damages overcome my es regen. Which Can be plagued if this es degen mod Ramps up. And believe me, each time i got it, it's on scourge tier 1 or 2. So no way to scourge it more.

That leads to why i'm not even interested anymore in scourging. If it's to have to stop each time at tier 1 or 2 on 10, Well you feel like you are deliberately casted away from the main thing of the league. Just because or some Lunatic decision...

oh right, that makes sense then. I usually use molten shell + armour as my main defensive thing, the ES regen is just a buffer for the most part so I'm not relying on it to protect me in heavy combat.

Scourge has pushed me to the point of adopting aegis aurora though, which is something I've never needed (or wanted) to engage before at a defensive level in any endgame content.

So far i just vendor the lose xxx life ones, run the lose xxx ES ones at lower scourge tiers and upgrade the other ones if the rewards are decent. There's quite a lot of wasted time getting the maps ready to use compared to delirium and other past league mechanics, so while some of them are fun to run, overall i wont miss it and probably wont ever engage with it in future leagues without an overhaul.
