Early Access Feedback - Leveling Alts is PAINFULL!!! heres a solution... - Forum

I like this type of comments "You have to play the game, but I paid to get carried" For the OP... yeah, GGG won't change the leveling mode. Like in PoE 1, we will have to slog through the campaign to level ALTS. Just craft boots with % movement speed, slap some raw damage on your weapon and make your character as beef as a spongebob. After a while you will be falling as sleep, but will have reach the endgame again. I did pay to get carried through trials and I'll do it again for any alt I will make. It's dirt cheap and saves a ton of time and gearing hassles. Getting 8 points in 10 minutes for 40ex is by far the best way to spend that 40ex on a build. This is just the reality of the current meta. I do not see paying for carry service as any different to buying 3 socket starter gear to nuke everything in normal.

Because illustrate the irony of both (OP and you) wanting the same thing - getting to endgame character fast. OP want a easy way up. You paying for the easy way up. Same vibe. Different ways to get to it.	Posted by Fhrek#4437 on Jan 7, 2025, 1:47:57 PM Quote this Post

ALSO for anyone who has an issue with this, whats the issue? it dont affect anyone elses game play, its just a mekanism to help speed through the campaign for alt characters. The solution is simple: Make the campaign skippable. Almost every other ARPG with any type of seasonal or time-bracketed content doesn't require you to slog through the entire game to get to it. It doesn't make sense why only GGG does that and CONTINUES to do that in POE 2. It's lazy development to add end-game that is the focus of leagues, but hold it out like a carrot-on-a-stick because you can't actually play it until you slog through the flipped-asset campaign... basically twice.

The campaign should be well designed and fun/challenging then leveling alts is also fun since it is kind of like ng but you got shared stash.	Posted by BK2710#6123 on Jan 7, 2025, 2:31:39 PM Quote this Post
Campaign is the only interesting part of the game so far. Donno why all of you want to skip it.	Posted by Azimuthus#1135 on Jan 7, 2025, 3:21:26 PM Quote this Post

Rush through the acts so they can spam end-game. People been doing that for years. All that tells me is that more work needs to be done on the rest of the game.

As interesting as it sounds, it can also be abused. If say a warrior with 500 strength wants to use a 800 energy shield chest piece and use grim harvest for that extra survivabillity but only has 15 int. just making it a level 1 armor with no stat requirements?

I really enjoy lvling through the campaign. I liked it in Poe1 and in Poe2. Hope there not gonna change it. Or maybe if some people want, there could be an alternative. But i would stick with campaign.	Posted by bennisen#4006 on Jan 7, 2025, 4:17:53 PM Quote this Post
diablo 3 is the name that can't be said. An abomination.	Posted by Wormabutter#4288 on Jan 7, 2025, 4:33:28 PM Quote this Post
The campaign is the only thing worth doing so why would you want to speed to end-game?	Posted by Rafkin4#7914 on Jan 7, 2025, 4:35:00 PM Quote this Post
