TOTA is a great mechanic

the better tattoos drop on the later rounds and drop from specific chieftains only or from end of tournament extra rewards


Well I never really paid attention to which tribe I was fighting, I just went for whoever gave me the most favor/the best reward on my main. Then on the cheese character I always eliminated kahutora or whatever titanic shell guy's name is and Ikiaho's tribe early in the tournament because those 2 are annoying af to fight. Can't really target-farm tribes if certain ones will softlock you or make the games take 30 minutes. Yeah replying is weird and sometimes the quote button doesn't even work the first time you click it. Jankiest forum I've used.


yes ikiaho shoots a projectile which leaves ground degen and it'd ins death on 1hp ci tota build she does have a chance at a multiple divine tattoo though and her units csb be easily deal with using void sphere so even if you keep dying your units can do most of the job taking totems only kahutoroa can seriously mess up the tournament imo
Yes, because you are a cheeser who does no damage. Kahutoroa is absolutely necessary to give you guys SOMETHING to worry about

I don't sell anything in bulk. Too much work and effort to use tft or 3rd party websites. All my scarabs,essences and bubblegum currency rot in my stash tab every league. And I have a tab full of tattoos that are 3 chaos, maybe 1 of them is like 20-50c but too lazy to list when its not even a few divines. Can't relate.


You are the architect of your own unhappiness it seems. All the threads you've posted in, and all the things making you upset are things you choose to do and the way you choose to play.

Don't do things in the game that make you unhappy is my advice. It's very easy to accomplish this luckily. The devs have made it extremely easy to block or ignore anything your dislike.

No, your arguments are invalid. "Just don't play it" isn't a real argument. Stop defending this [Removed by Support] mechanic and being a contrarian on every single post about it, everyone else hates this horribly balanced mechanic.

You personally disliking my opinion does nothing to invalidate it.

Suggesting you not do things you dislike is actually a very valid argument and what I consider to be good advice if you are having a bad time. I don't like lima beans - so I don't eat them and enjoy my meals more. I don't like breach, so I turn it off on my atlas and everything is great.

This seems very simple to me.

No. I am having a great time with it - the best I have had in years. I enjoy TotA, and I also like trying to give advice to people struggling with it.
The trials are refreshingly different from the usual way of playing PoE.

Everyone? Nobody in my circle loaths it. I have to come here or the dumpster-fire that is reddit to find folks who dislike the trials.

The fact is, this mechanic not only is entirely optional, but it's so well designed that it's not even consuming an event hook-point in your maps. I get that some people might not enjoy such a big departure from regular PoE, but you can ignore it and play the mechanics you do like.

I see my rant have become the theater or your own little war.
That's fine, but don't forget the original topic : how TotA is badly made.

I thought I had a good strategy to cheese and use void sphere, dashing as much as I can, but sometimes it is not enough : ice girl has a ton of people defending and preventing you to channel, some random ice spear off-screen stopping me ... and still, they have enough people to go aggro and defeat my own army ? :)

So what, do I have to achieve it all by myself ? :)
I am sure it started with a great idea in mind, but this time (only this time), the devs went in the wrong direction.

And boy, the "lore" or idk how to call it, the HUGE AMOUNT of chat between npcs in tota is really boring. Where is the "I don't care" button again ?

No, it is not well-designed. No, it is not optional because people do challenges. Yes maybe in your circle of friends you "enjoy" it but one look at the forums tells you how many people are sick of it, and steam charts say it all.
