So frustrating that the same mistake is repeated in every D2 clone

My problem is that I always get level 1 uniques at level 80+. I have miles and miles of silverbranches and hrimsorrows and crowns of thorns, and never see anything like a Kaom's or a Shavronne's or a Soul Taker. When 95% of the uniques that drop are 60 levels below the content dropping it, it gets annoying.

Same thing applies to map drops, but you seem to feel differently with regards to that.

How is that a same thing? Deeply explain, please.

The burnout thing is a silly argument. I have all of these items mentioned, and I still play like crazy a year later. The issue I have is what I went through to get these items, because the chances of them just dropping from playing is so small. Instead its farm alteration shards and chaos for days on end. THAT is what causes burn out. Not having good items.

Not sure what one it will be.

This is a solid argument for burn-out, i don't really burn-out on "monster slaying" since that's the reason i come to play in the first place. Having a decked out character is boring seems to be a consensus when talking about burn-out on these forums, i really don't understand that lol.

that's like saying i have 5 lvl 85 chars with "medium" gear, now i'm done with the game. Fuck new builds, fuck optimization, fuck just you know enjoying your theory-craft function? :D

why start gaming in a monster slaying based game if having a decked out char that essentially slays monsters at high speed is boring :p? that's pretty counter intuitive :p?

Yup, getting to the point where you can gear up with all the good gear is what's causing burn-out.

Don't use the term "good gear" on the general discussion forums, people will come in and call you a casual that demands BiS gear for saying this.

It's not productive, better start using "medium gear" to illustrate your point, without getting hammered by the "casual hit squad"

You are never guaranteed to get another map, just as you are never guaranteed an item after crafting.

Maps, however, are items, and you can buy them from other players. Complaining about maps is no different than complaining about items.

So, you're saying leveling process is the same as gear? It's a matter of convenience that maps are trade-able items in this game, yet they have nothing else in common with gear.

This is also the first game where you have to be lucky in order to progress (more efficiently) even though you can handle the harder content, and if you're not lucky (most of the time) you either have to play lower level maps in order to try to get lucky to gain again the higher content.
Or, you can buy harder monsters.
Brilliant system, it disgusts me every time I think of it.

And now you're saying that is the same as gear?
Please, tell me again that it's the same thing so I won't ever reply to your posts in the future.
