Is 3.28 Steve League ?

New Pinnacle boss at 65,535 depth. I hope this league is a heater, the last one was just OK, it missed the mark for me.

As long as this league doesn't contain breach walls or a genesis tree, I couldn't care less.

hey, cmon. The tree was great. The walls not so much obv.

I love when SSF gets semi buffed, like with the tree or with the shipments from kalguur where you get an easy 6 link base at some point.

Also, i don't really know where delve comes from? isn't that just the entrance to the vault, as in, "yay, we got a new vault pass for ya!" maybe i don#t get it xd but that would be my interpretation, haha

Hopefully there wont be any easy-game mechanics
Getting multiple 6-links in acts is boring, this is not gachagame

Breach will be quite the opposite if they don't remove the walls, fortresses and blight 2.0 encounter. Bet money on it that it will be the most blocked league mechanic in 3.28

Is that so?

I would venture a confident prediction that the reality may prove quite the opposite. If the new Breach goes core, the tree will be 100% get nuked. That much is guaranteed. And since the current loot is largely locked behind that tree, the encounter rewards would inevitably be reworked and redistributed by default.

Assuming Foulborns are integrated into the base encounters, there will certainly be players farming breach for those drops, alongside those who do not mind the mechanic in the slightest.
Once the tree is gone, it becomes a simple question of profitability. The vast majority of players operate on a div per hour metric with tink brain efficiency, and if the returns are strong, they will run it without hesitation.

Personal dislike is not a reliable benchmark for predicting how it will perform once standardized and rebalanced for core integration.

And to be clear, my previous point was about a Delve rework.
