We Want / Need 6 Portals !!

At this point, with a game full of random oneshots from trashmobs mixed with on-death effects everywhere, only 1-portal maps are pure troll. Its like spitting in the players face. Will not waste my time with this shit design anymore.

(yes. 80% evasion, rescapped, 2.5k HP on t4 maps.)

Wasting time..yep. Sad but true. I went from excitement to frustration.
Games Quality drops to the bottom after the Campaign.

Nothing I've suggested changes the difficulty of any bosses.

or the players experience on the boss, solo or party. Its only to have the engagement to try again and alleviate a bit for the players time while also bringing some excitement and enjoyment if in a party. being in a party of 6 and 5 have died and the last party member succeeds in killing the boss, that experience leaves that player feeling like a champion and the reward is being able to revive his members to just complete the remaining monsters on the map.

Campaign bosses you can do the boss again and again from the check point. Maps can be the same thing, to which its what suggested.

Infact i personally don't have an issue with the bosses difficulty or difficultly in general for that matter. I've completed the campaign twice already, solo and co-op. well into maps and doing okay

And if we talk about poe 1. i dont have an issue with difficulty on that either after 6000 hours.

Im no noob on POE.

Just because someone can accomplish something doesn't mean it is reasonable to do or good design.

What makes something like dark souls or something like a pixel perfect platformers fun for most people despite being hard is the quick retries you have in them.

The 6 portal system from PoE 1 was good for that. IT let people test and discover things for themselves without having to risk losing the 12 hours they just spent farming for that thing. Not everyone want to look up and watch every single fight and read up on every single thing before they try it for themselves.

If you want some extra reward for risking only having one portal? That would be a great idea. Give people the quasi-hardcore that map currently are to people who want to play that way.

Plenty of really hard games give people options to make it harder for themselves. That is the point of things like solo self found and hardcore in poe.

One shot mechanics and single tries tend to be not the best combo for enjoyment for most people. Even more so when it takes you several hour to get that one try.

Even if they change it you can still self impose only allowing yourself one portal. That is one of the wonders of playing games imposing challenges on yourself as you play to increase your own enjoyment.

No

I uninstalled the game because of this to be honest; getting 1 shot from bosses offscreen it was enough.
At this point the game is not fun anymore, it's just frustrating, and why should i play anything i'm not having fun with? I don't xD
I understand some people may like this feature, so here's my suggestion:
make it an option! player can chose to use 1 portal instead of 6 for increased rewards (like waystones droprates maybe?) - that way it's more balanced

+1

But then people would die on purpose in high level maps on the boss 5 times to get 5 times extra loot from the run.

Have you considered just not dying? Seems like a lot of people are using this trick to get around the skill issue you seem to be having.

im dying on normal mobs on maps and im not sure what killes me, if you need to stack all resistances to play maps, why even bother making 4 of them instead of one that.
Kinda bad design
