The Fractured Lake is amazing!

The unique maps were a great addition to the end game, I just ran the fractured lake and I love the atmosphere and the unique mechanics of mirrored rare monsters and the ground rising from the sea. Also the pay off at the end of a unique drop makes it feel even more fun when you see it on the map. I think the end game is going to get more and more interesting over time when more content like this get's added!

It would also be great if the atlas passive points would let you improve your chances at getting these unique maps in some way. I'm currently speccing into essences and ritual so I can build up some crafting materials for when I hit T16s but if there was a way to spec into unique maps I would 100% be doing that and trying to hunt down every single one.

Also I know Jonathan is looking at the loot right now but I have to wonder if the loot was buffed on 0.2.0f or if unique maps have better currency drop rates. I got 3 regals, exalts and alchs from the same T9 fractured lake map when usually I'd be lucky to get one exalt right now. It feels way nicer when you can make a "profit" on the investment you do when you add mods to your waystones. I've been mostly running 2 mod waystones so far because I haven't been getting my exalts back if I add them to the waystones.

The Fractured Lake was a cool map.

Even if they did a sneaky buff of the loot in the last patch.
The 20 people guild I am in, they have all quit already has there is no loot and no fun.

It feels too late to 'save' 0.2 session

Shame...

Eh, personally I think the doom and gloom is way overblown, even if I also personally have some problems with 0.2 I think the game is in a WAY better state now than in 0.1, definitely the moment to moment gameplay and the end game both feel way more engaging to me personally. Over half of the players on steam that started on Dawn of the Hunt are still playing.

That being said if you aren't having fun with the game you shouldn't feel pressured to keep on playing, hopefully 0.3 is going to feel better and more fun for you and your guild or if you've burned out of the early access hopefully the full release is going to be incredible.

I was also really moved by fractured lake, beautiful zone.
Pharyll megalith is a great too, a boss rush mode.

Viridan wildwood and castaway are meh.

I don't get it, they have such talent on the thematics, music, and they cant get the easier part: endgame grind mechanics, right...
