I'd prefer going Incinerate totem, it's really nice with Rain of Splinters.

Personally I'm unsure... the BOTW kinda makes me wanna try mirror arrow.

good thing this is the last day of Tempest league

had a 79 Shipyard map be unusable due to putting down a portal around too many dead mobs

wasn't a Fracture map

probably going to level and map as Firestorm because I enjoyed playing that before RIPing

GGG sometimes straight annoys me.

"Level 100 was achieved too quickly so we're going to make that harder because it's such an incredible achievement."

Do they not realize that people will rush to level 100 super quickly no matter what you do? You can't balance again around the top 1% of the top 1% in a generally non competitive game and even when you try they still blow bell curves away.

GGG's fascination with the level 100 continues to shock me. I don't get it. Builds are generally done by 80 anyway so most people just straight reroll. Level 100 is just a super boring grind fest. It's also pretty insanely annoying that there is no place to go for an end game character that doesn't suffer from exp reduction.

You notice that you just contradicted yourself? Yep, most people will reroll between lvl 80 and 90. So? Why can't they balance level 100 around the 1% that is trying to achieve it?

We had almost 70 lvl 100 characters by the end of warbands. It was way to easy to reach. I got to lvl 98 without even trying. Could easily have made it to lvl 100 if I didn't started doing a ton of experiments that lead to a lot of 10% xp losses :D The new maps made it a non-achievement to reach lvl 100. In my opinion they should nerf the shit out of the xp gains in maps or increase the amount of xp you need to level up past lvl 90. It is supposed to be an achievement. Not something handed out for free.

How long did it take you to get to that level though ? Even playing 3-4h on week day and all week end is already tryharding a bit compared to most of the poe population immo, and that should be enough to get one dude to lvl 100 in a league lifetime.

It's a bit dishonest to say "It was way too easy to reach" and right before it say "We had almost 70 level 100 characters by the end of [3 months of play]."

Especially when there are way over 15000 characters that played during the league. So out of all the characters that played in the league, less than .5% achieving level 100 is somehow way too easy to reach? Yeah, clearly something handed out for free.

Wow, it's been a while since I leveled as a bow char. So painfully slow, might be worse than leveling a summoner.
(in a new league that is, I know some uniques like Death's Harp make life easy as bow char)

Ok I'm lvl 65, going to try and push through to like lvl 90 over the next week. Decided against going duelist ea, and instead went with scion ea. I think that by using certain talents the build will become somewhat viable in single target scenarios.

No its not dishonest. A lot of people get tired of their toon and switch character: It is not their goal to reach lvl 100 but for those who wants to reach that goal it was made way to easy. So I am glad GGG nerfed the xp amount for the highest level maps and I hope they will continue to do so when the next expansion comes.

I'm really enjoying my wander this league but it's such a scrubcore build, quite a bit more than I had realized. It's just so hard to get a decent life total in that part of the tree, and thats before you factor in near-0 physical mitigation etc (I took acrobatics lol). Still, 20k dps lmp kinetic blast (self buffed with charges) @level 73 is fun. Now to cap my cold res... XD

Its easy to get level 100 if you got 5 hours each day to burn.
Not everyone got that much time on their hands :D.

70 players level 100 is a joke. how many players actually played warbands? What % of the players got to 100?

Thats however is not what really made me quit this game.
Its how GGG decides to kill a certain build each patch that comes out.

Its not about the character itself, but the loot.
Last time they totally destroeyd mind over matter because it was too easy to make tanky chars.
So instead, they buffed armor, so all those 2k armors you sued to sell because they were pointless, now cost 3 ex each.
And that Legacy cloack of defiance you got? Not worth 1 Chaos now.
The list goes on. Rightteus fire was too storng, here lets make it stronger.... assuming you got the new item we just invented (that fire to chaos dagger thing?! sure, its not like its gonna be OP).

Its a desperate try by GGG to extend the life of the game without adding new interesting stuff (act 4 is great, but not only a bit short, but also it kinda took em a while).

Still, its a free game, so its not like I even have the right to complain.
