Reducing Tedium for Alt Characters
Issue:
Whenever I get bored of my main class—either because it hits the level cap (90+) or I can’t upgrade my gear further—I end up rerolling to a new class, like many players. However, starting a new character brings another challenge: repeating the campaign acts takes too long, even with unique gear equipped. We already had this issue in POE 1 where many players wouldn't like running the tedious Campaign challenge acts again. In Path of Exile 2 the Acts are Bigger, Take longer, and feel worse because of the gigantic map layouts that are combined with the fog where we players are unable to see where to go and plus on top of it mirrored area layouts. Think about it. You are playing through the Campaign sitting on massive Items in ur Stash and money but yet you are so time penalized to play trough the acts again because of undisocovered gigantic map layouts. Suggestion: Once you’ve completed the main story tutorial on one character, new characters should have the option to remove map fog for a cost (either in-game currency or gold). This way, starting a new character would feel smoother and faster, since you wouldn’t need to rediscover the map layout. Result: Faster progression for alts Less repetitive gameplay More fun when rerolling GGG talked about making other classes more attractive well this is a start, i would actually love trying out new builds or 0.5% popularity classed builds or unique fun builds, but not when im forced to play the acts for 8+ hours again or longer. In addition to the fog removal i recommend giving us the possibility to also spend like 1 mill gold to unlock the passive side quests already completed for your second character alt playtrough..
