STRAWPOLL TIME! Will you go Ruthless or not for 3.20?
" That is pretty much the case as PoE's all map tiers can be done mostly with just resistance gear but once you move up to Guadians, Sirus, Maven etc. you will need more than that and that's what's very hard to achieve in Ruthless. But of course Awakened Englighten will be pretty much pointless in Ruthless as the upgrades needed for everything else will take a long time to achieve before looking at Awakened Enlighten. If I do go Ruthless then probably I'll go spellcaster or a dot as they have the least scaling and min-maxing required to do the top content while not being a total bore like totems or traps.

everything about ruthless is FRUSTRATING not fun i dont get it how people find it fun

" It's like how choosing to play on "Very easy" might be fun for you but another player can enjoy only "Hard" and beyond. I didn't play PoE for 2 years since Delve, because you could kill Uber Elder( the final boss back then) literally with just white items, so why even buy gear? And since the game is about gear, then why even play? So I didn't play.

" Some people choose "Easy" difficult in games, some prefer "Hard". | |

Absolutely. The only reason I even see to start playing again before PoE2 release. Even considering starting on RHC this time since challenges aren't available anyway and my friends aren't likely to be playing either next league and campaign should be fun in ruthless.

" its not hard...thats my entire point its just GRINDY doing 1000 white maps to get your gems to drop isnt hard to do its just time consuming and grindy and frustrating GGG definition of "hard" have always been rng and grindy as i said its not hard at all Last edited by Gopstop22 on Nov 24, 2022, 6:31:36 AM

" That is why only 64 players beated at least 1 uber boss in kalandra hcssf and only 12 killed all ubers? | |
" What you're doing is taking a word that has wildly different contextually subjective meanings and then appropriating it to whatever you want and also demand others to follow the same definition. RHCSSF in a blindfold Uber Sirus boss kill is not your definition "harder" either, you just need to "grind" yourself the immortal gear for 100,000 hours instead of the standard 100. In reality the Ruthless mode is more difficult and it's also grindier with some of the difficulty coming from the gear being slower to accumulate, making you take on challenges with worse gear that you would normally have. Bad gear, harder fight etc. Uploaded an awesome Exsanguinate Freeze Explosion build on the forums - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3508506

I would like to play it if ruthless is the only game mode. Will play normal league ssf like the last couple years. Back in the day i played hc.
I just can't stand when games take stuff away from players like in that case movement skills, or introducing 70% reduced dmg taken "uber" bosses. Its not interesting or fun for me. | |
" I'm aware of the other changes, am I allowed to say it's not tuned to my exact preferences and that I'm going to give it a fair shot without being told to play HC? I do play SSF and HC when the mood suits me btw. |
