(This is how I used to play Diablo 1 when I was kid). to make a sufficiently long game they would need to do a shit ton of balancing and a lot of work. It would be cool to have some sort of big dungeon made up of randomized map affixs.

Descent is at 4pm pst right?
|
Yeah, I think part of the allure of descent is that its only playable during the race periods. Because honestly, It's just a "high-score" generator. Having it always playable would rapidly decrease interest in it (after an initial burst, obviously). I don't think the replay-value is quite there.

00:00 GMT (+00:00) Descent Race 1 begins.

Maybe 1 day if mods are allowed / official support of PoE is stopped, people will make their own dungeons.
what's the TL PoE irc? is it still active?

Afaik they said they will implement custom leagues as a cash shop thingy at some point. No details though.

gl to all you racers

GL, try to do your best. Also try to remember as many of the chest rewards as you can, ill be rolling a marauder for this.
|

I'll be on teamspeak if anybody wants to collaborate on dangers to look out for.
|
Theres a TL teamspeak? Lol.
|
I'm so dumb... I forgot to patch beforehand, and it's been trying to patch for 15 mins now, to no avail.

A bunch of spiders emerged from the depths, followed by a few seconds of skippy lag, followed by my death. I didn't think I'd be able to play this on hotel internets :<
GL whoever is still alive.

Made it to lvl 10 after dying once at lvl 3. The first Cruel zone is insane lol, Temporal chains frost with -20% cold @.@
preliminary thoughts: Quicksilver's arent worth it. ask Blitz about that lmao. One of the chests gives double alchemy, that one is really important. Grind out the Zombie zone and the first Spider zone because those are easier.
|
Cruel difficulty with mass cold damage makes me appreciate sapphire rings so much ^_^ Couldn't make it anywhere in that first area cause I never got a good life flask and kept getting frozen.
ask Blitz about that lmao
Cruel difficulty still using small life flasks is highly insulting.
|
Ripped at level 11 on the first cruel area with Witch at 50 minutes in. I'm so bad at this lol. I even found a Q8 freezing pulse early on and I was still slow.

Ugh, the fucking sinlords really fucked me hard, but witch such shit for this mode, dunno what I was thinking.
|
I'm curious on the kill rate of that first cruel zone. I feel like half the players who made it there died ^_^

The statue zone is definitely skip material, but I feel like the later zones all have ridiculous mobs so you really have to be careful. If you get into a hole it's practically impossible to climb back out.
