About sanctum

Wouldn't it be more fun if it was as the following?:
every player would go in with a basic weapon and 1 skill gem and with an alternative smaller skill tree and remove the resolve thing as it is and instead of boons we just get like boon like uniques we can use within the sanctum that way we could play the league mechanic on every character, server lag wouldn't be such a massive downer and honestly i think it might even better to balance around.

what do you guys think?

terrible, the whole point of poe is that you play a character, if you start making custom builds on a characters whats the point, that would just be separate game inside a game

Sanctum is just horrible. Spend 100 divs on your armor/weps and they make no difference in sanctum. Resolve is the dumbest thing they have ever added to this game in a while besides the debacle of last season. at this point I just skip sanctum.

It's terrible because you're unable to do it

Got it.

it basically is a game inside a game. a small game but still a game. and people making custom builds just to comfortably run sanctums which tbh is dumb.

agree 100%

u cant fix that.

no

Actually as a separate game mode kind of like royale it would kind of work better. Where you start off at level 1 every time and you get rooms with specific gear/gem/unique rewards instead of just currency all the time. It would probably be a better roguelike in that regard. Current one is half baked and probably will not go core.

The rooms are all the same. The layouts are the same. Find the exit.. come on, in an ARPG this is a joke, especially when we saw this in heist already. It's largely boring for the most part. It's the same run everytime, there is little to no difference.

The rewards are only good if you can actually win the sanctum. Which sadly... I haven't done yet. There hasn't really been a league like this though where if you don't win you get basically nothing except experience (which is kind of nice) and small currency.


Now if you happen to enjoy this then that's fine, more power to you. I'm going to keep trying because I want to at least win a sanctum run once. If this somehow goes core over ultimatum then.. sad.

defenses are worthless yes but if you 1 shot all the enemies its a real breeze
problem is if you arent playing a crazy high dps ranged build its a pretty awful mechanic to engage with
i deleted my character after a week and am playing ruthless and ignoring the mechanic entirely and having far more fun

2 leagues in a row where ignoring the mechanic is the way to play

its kind of a good thing im slowly weening myself off poe after playing too much for too long and spending money every 3 months
now i spend no money and am able to enjoy other games more i still play poe but the state of the game and my lack of interest in the current state is kinda turning out to be a good thing

fine for me atm
