Domination League is snooze fest

Shrines are incredibly boring. I thought they were cool at first until I got to merciless and realized there effects on players is so laughable its depressing. The only one that is good is the diamond shrine. But even then its like cool crits on a bunch of white mobs I could have killed anyway.

They're only slightly challenging in tight closed spaces.


Also how did the shrine that makes your character bigger even make it into the game?

That one is the most laughable.

Shrines are nice because theres usually a big mob around them. That's the only eason I'm happy to see them.

Nemesis is definitely the better league (nemesis mods add to tactics), but omg dat desync... Its futile to play there in my experience.

Must agree. While I loved anarchy far more than onslaught, I think the nemesis is beating Dom.

The shrines are literally 'yay, mob density', when theres often areas without it. Its especially nice in places like ancient pyramid, because the actual mob spawn isn't just skeletons

Not to mention that i really hate the constant flashing light around the shrine if it's a shock nova, frost nova, firestorm or whatever this kind of spell shrine.
I just avoid them.

I didn't bother with Domination, shrines seemed meh. Nemesis on the other hand, is retardedly fun. I got a Docks yesterday with 3 unique Voidbearers with nemesis mods, spawning just outside the waypoint area. One of them them was a stormbringer.

The nemesis mods add a lot of difficulty, fresh gameplay and just....run around like a madman fun. I hope whatever is the next Anarchy/Domination league gets them.

Always glad to have stuck with standard ;)

Sadly I'm not man enough to play a hardcore league, I have never gotten past normal without dying at least once.

I must say I thought the shrines would be more fun. As it is, I'm only playing Dom instead of standard because of the fresh start and empty stash and to get the achievements/ challenges.
Nemesis, though, is really nice. The nemesis mods are cool and require you to use a bit more foresight when fighting. Immense fun.

Most shrine effects in themselves are underwhelming. Some i even click off asap, like the fire rain which is just more mess on my screen making it harder to see what i am doing.

What is really great about them are the monsters all over them. :D



It took me like 20 minutes to clear all those shrines. It was packed with undead and necros :/

I find shrines a good addition to the game. It's likely that they will be included into the normal game if Domination ends, same like the Rogue Exiles. Another piece in the Puzzle that makes PoE better I think. Shrines alone may not be a great thing but in combination with the other stuff that continuously is added in PoE, it's great. :)
