Why was Legacy of Phrecia so much fun

Because of the Alternate Ascendancies.

And because of the idols.
It was fun to find idols its better then getting points to spent in the atlas tree.
Finding loot like idols is fun.

Just my opinion.

THX GGG for creating this event hoop you think of more of these events.

Yes. Changing the ascendancies creates a different meta for creating builds, which is a large part of what make the game interesting.

I hope they do events with weird ascendancies more often yeah.

And having the idol system give you permanent bonuses on all your maps instead of having to spec an atlas tree did feel nice. I hope we get some kind of similar progression system for maps that can co-exist with atlas tree, which just gives you permanent bonuses that you can choose between.

I played up to lvl100(farmed harbinger with idol setup and printing those fracture orbs was one of the most fun farms I've ever done) and another char up to 80-ish, event was overall pretty fun.

I would have liked it better if behemoth wasnt so stupid.

I didn't like idols either.

What was wrong with it? Over powered or underpowered? Look interesting for some builds I was thinking of, but didn't get a chance to try it.

Out of the ones I played, Surfcaster, Polytheist, BogShaman, Herald and Wildspeaker. They all seemed very good, except Herald, which seemed a bit build specific. I was not playing HOAG, and seemed like that might be fairly needed.

No spells completely bricks it if you want to play hc(which i do).

Also if you want to enjoy the character at all you will want spells.

Fair enough, no spells is pretty big downside.

Now that my latest character has spent both time with and without idols -- the biggest difference is that idol chance felt far more reliable.

As I had about 4-5 pages of idols after consolidating them, that's a lot of micromanaging, but it did allow certain freedoms not possible in the regular atlas, at least simultaneously.

If there was one thing that stood out, it was actually getting blueprints consistently, which I've never felt happened since heist was added.

Edit - but as I'm not about to regear all my rogues and the two I would run heist with are in standard, its almost a moot point.

Because we haven't had no PoE 1 league in forever. At this point anything new would be "so much fun".

I totally agree with Kelv
