I also want curare on my 24 amazon beacuse I want to have better killspeed. Devs pls, why you make leveling a thing in a rpg game. It took me 50 hours to get level 24 but I'm not 90 because developers said so.

I can understand the old way being too easy and the devs not wanting the content done is (X) days but player retention should be earned through new content/features, not forcing a list of instructions that must be followed to further progression.


You mean like D2 acts that "remove" freedom? :D

Or waypoints/areas which are "forced" upon you in order? You know order-less has always only been a Median component and only a result of not being able to create more acts? What a big crime it is to force leveling to unlock content (how skills, gear and everything works), adding order to streamline progression and prevent abuse.

Sure, getting tcowed on assassin, making budget gear to farm about 50% of endgame bosses which can be done so gearless, selling hundreds of void charms on day 1, re-invest into expensive gear and look, the most efficient way to beat the game is by not playing it. Sounds really sane, sustainable and the way to move forward, being rewarded the most for playing the least.

By your post it seems you don't like rpg at all - maybe open world games is what you'd be looking for if you're all that about freedom.


edit: while I think exping after 130 can be improved upon, as well as certain leveling gaps previous to it, there was a lot of positive feedback regarding new leveling system just like there was tcowers who want abusable powerleveling method back. Just because you're loud and emotional doesn't make you the majority.

The difference blessed life makes is huge and I have to wait for no reason besides the developers said so.

'Jah'
Runeword Level: 80

Stun Attack
Slows Attacker by 5%

Physical Resist 10%


boom. 25% physical resist at the cost of 2 easy runes.

And besides the physical resist and vitality how does this help unholy melee at all? Sure if I was holy melee I'd use those.

Edit: sigh I equipped them and now I'm so tanky.. The cows dont kill me anymore. The gyides dont even tell you to use any runewords whatsoever theres 0 suggestions. Its basically tldr use t4 then go get set and crafts. Nothing in between nothing.


Sorry if my comment sounded rude.

Especially for paladins, but also many other builds, you have to sacrifice some things to be able to survive more than do damage. Can't do damage when you're dead, then upgrade gear as you progress and gain new skills/gear options

The exp grind from 110-115 could be improved upon, but it's really not that bad if you can cow.

I would like some not so shitty alternatives because the only one I found that gives decent exp is Icy cellar and that's most for ranged because melee can get destroyed by the mobs.
