And by the way, you say you like to compete, yet you have a 40's HC character and a 89 Standard character.
I would've expect higher level HC character, especially in Invasion, or at least a high level Ambush character.


I love racing in this game.
That's the best competition.
Not sure how much competition there is in leveling a character in a hardcore leagues when I can't play all day long...

So tell me, how is that worse then my tries at getting T1 or T2 life mod on my shield (as a last mod, after double armour mods and triple res), which took 70 eternaling. But yeah, I beat the RNG in the end and got a 99 life mod.



this is why i'm going to go try RoS.

you spent 70 eternalings to craft an item, and i've never even _seen_ a single one.

There is no crafting and I hate trading.

To attempt to craft in PoE, you need a static amount of materials. One fuse, one jeweler, etc. In RoS, you need an exponentially greater amount each time it fails. Imagine if you only needed one fuse the first time, than 2, 4, 6,8,10, 15, 20.... just for the same gamble.

Crafting cost in RoS is exponential in price. That makes it worse.

Well Damn, son, in PoE it's a massive clusterfuck to use chaos orbs to get the stats you want and the values you want on the stats, a clusterfuck to get orbs in general, a clusterfuck to use jews to 6-socket, a clusterfuck to 6-link and so on and so forth. Obviously it's got to cost 3x2x4x30k gold in ROS to reroll 1 property, otherwise it would be too cheap and easy. It's already cheap and easy imo, just not TOO cheap and easy.

I don't agree with you at all, and i find RoS the winner in this particular topic we're discussing, due to the massive amount of RNG here in PoE that makes it impossible to actually calculate the price to craft.

Edit: To "Craft" an item in the same manner you do in PoE and to REROLL 1 STAT ON an item in ROS is diffent (i'm sure you know, but other's might not).

In about 4 more attempts, it'll cost over 1M per roll. You also seem to forget it costs a forgotten soul each try, and 20 rare items. I'm saying it gets exponentially more expensive to try, this isn't the case in PoE

Try #1 in PoE is more expensive than try #15 in D3. And if you were really unlucky and it requires more than 15 tries to get a desired mod, then fuck it, grind up some more.

With constant progression, you have many legendaries in you stash that you've either used or they are too weak for you to use, plus the rift guardian drops forgotten souls fairly often.

Of course you shouldn't spend all your crafting materials on Expert difficulty and on your ~1300 DPS weapon. Calculations and choices matter a lot.
Here is what I see when I look at D3 gfx

Also the animation is terrible. When people walk it like this slow motion bouncy hover.

The biggest difference between PoE and D3 in this regard is that in PoE you might spend a shitton of currency to craft something, but when you get that perfect item you can sell it for an even larger shitton of currency. In D3 you can never get your investment back.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.

Although I'm also not a fan of the cartoony look which prevails in D3, but it's not all of it. I can say that rocks in PoE resemble those rocks in Stronghold Crusader ones, piles of crap.

About the walking... you are probably comparing the gameplay of PoE with high MS boots and quicksilver flask activated with beginning of D3, then yes, extremely slow combat.
However, if you take your MS on 125% in D3, it's about the same speed as in PoE with 20% MS on boots.
Quicksilver flask activated? I had that unique belt which provided 38% bonus MS on War Rage activation.
And there are those speed pylons and fleeting shrines.

It's not really fair to compare the way some people like you are. And I'm here to correct that.

Exactly.

Those 2 are completely different games now, PoE is about profit and economy and D3 is about killing monsters.
