Why can't you just roll a new character when you hit 94 like a normal person?

Why don't you just stick with 1 character in a season, like a normal person?

I don't think many people stick with one character per season. You need a bosser and a mapper. Maybe not in PoE2 right now, because it's empty and flat.

Also, my personal answer to your question is that I play SSF, so just one character would require astonishingly lucky drops. But even in trade, people who beat Maven or the Ubers usually have more than one char in PoE1.

Edit: After reading your other post, I have to say, I don't think your strategy will survive once the PoE2 endgame is built out.

If Rolling Multiple Characters per season is the intended way to play the game. I just think that the current approach to the main campaign in which it is very long and mandatory is not the greatest fit.

people put 1000
hours of gameplay and then complain about doing a second campaign lol second campaign is twice as fast

i’m a player who only makes 1 char per season but I still don’t complaint not being able to get lvl 100 because there are more of things to do than leveling lol

Also yesterday, I added someone in my map that needed some leveling.
I took my best juiced map I made with one of the best waystones I had.
He leveled 12 times in one map lol

You guys know Leeching maps to get xp is also a thing right? (mot in ssf ofc)

No one said there aren't other things to do and hitting 100 is the only goal. If you don't care about it then you shouldn't care if reaching the high 90s takes less time.

It's not even just reaching lvl 100, the last 10 levels are horribly slow and tedious. You might not care about those skill points but a lot of people do(and the people that do don't care about the "they aren't needed" explanation) and the amount of time needed to get them is ridiculous without the XP penalty.

+1

So many threads from D4 Andy’s complaining about this non-issue (xp loss), the game and leveling progression would be objectively worse and more boring if they remove xp penalty

Hope ggg does not fall for this. Ppl want infinite loot, no penalty, no nerfs and infinite damage, no death effects, no one shots and skip campaign . You realize what that sounds like? D4.

I love exp loss because it keeps bad players bad.

I know if you can't get past level 91, then you aren't someone to take seriously, take advice from, or even listen to about game mechanics.

Conversely, someone who hits level 100 is likely not an idiot, regardless of how they achieved it.


You do not deserve free level 100 just because you can breathe IRL. Git gud.

"Season"? What are you talking about? The game is in beta. You are a beta tester. No one forced you to play the reset economy. This is not a league. In my eleven years of playing Path of Exile, I have never had a level 100 character, btw. The majority have not. Also, how do you know you can't get to level 100? Are you the only person that GGG has let know when they will have another economy available in the future?

7 years, zero level 100 characters here too.

Free level 100 invalidates the game. The only people crying are the ones who can't stop dying.

Why don't you play a lot of builds and just have fun doing that? What is the point of leveling to 100, if you don't like doing it?

Many people, myself included, don't like rerolling multiple characters in a season. I don't want to play the campaign over and over again, but I also like maximizing 1 character as much as I can while testing different maxed builds in maxed juiced maps. The endgame is basically designed for this, especially with the atlas skill tree.

Gating extra skill points behind a 1000 hours in a seasonal ARPG makes no sense. Makes sense in a game like Edlen Ring
