Betrayal as a Core Game Mechanic
Betrayal was the most fun league I've played so far and one of the most fun times I have had with an ARPG. Thank you!
I am looking forward to Synthesis! |

No crafting bench migration?
wtf? everything else we get progress migrated to std. this took ALL LEAGUE just farming veiled mods. and now you are punishing me for not keeping it all till standard..? i am dissapointed to say the least. the crafting changes are just straight up bad. what was the point of getting all the last ranks of everything.

Why was extra chaos moved? Too powerful with Synthesis or something? I don't like the Sulphite changes much. People will just run them in rotas like they did before, except now they'll have to spend more currency doing it. Is Delve really so valuable that GGG has to increase the barrier of entry to it seemingly every league?

" Not good.No way to lock them away anymore in the prison (aka syndicate lab). PoE core game is bloated too much (and becomes even more a themepark nowadays) with past leagues mechanics and they should have kept it the way it was in the last league. Random encounters will be now be even more annoying than before, with three guaranteed divisions and the usual RNG in map layouts and encounters placement, complemented with other mechanics from past leagues. Sometimes less is better than more. Masterpiece of 3.16 lore "A mysterious figure appears out of nowhere, trying to escape from something you can't see. She hands you a rusty-looking device called the Blood Crucible and urges you to implant it into your body." Only usable with Ethanol Flasks Last edited by gandhar0 on Feb 22, 2019, 4:24:29 AM

I was hoping Betrayal wouldn't go core, but w/e

" Do you even realize that even if you are a dumb nut, that your stupidity is not saving you from 1 shots? How can anyone, who thinks he is so smart and having his head so much into his own arse, that he could wear himself as a hat, think this is a "fine" leaguemechanic? And protip buddy, I did almost only T14-16 Betrayal mechanics since a month (U-Elder farming), and every one and his grandmah is streaming low effort garbage nowadays. | |
I liked Betrayal league ALOT! I did skip delve league because I was too busy, but I immensely enjoyed doing that too this leagu.
All the changes look good to me except for one, like most people I really disagree with nerfing sulphite scarabs. Either undo that change, or make delves cheaper. I like doing delves for the delve-experience, not the rewards per se. However currently without sulphite scarabs, you can barely experience delve at all beyond 250 depth. Just some paper napkin math: - A medium-long node costs between 2k and 3k sulphite (at 250+depth). - Every 5-6 maps will have nico in them, giving you a chance between 1-3 nodes (if you hunt him every single time) - If you only run T15-16 maps, and are lucky enough to only get him on those maps, AND you invest enough in those maps. You will get about 3-4k sulphite average every 5 maps. - Meaning that every 5-6 maps a player when completely investing in farming sulphite, will be able to do about 1-1.5 delve nodes. Thats like the equivalent investment of farming uber elder. Last edited by Fluxje on Feb 22, 2019, 4:11:50 AM

" same.. got to a point where just got laboratory and never entered it so it doesn't influence my game in any way | |
GGG :
1°) Couterbalance sulphite scarabs nerf through synthesis mechanics or make rare mobs dropping some "sulphite cristals" (why not after all ?). 2°) Nerf the ridiculously stupid amount of damage betrayal members deal which forces us to think and build our entire game experience around them exclusively (is it worth mentionning HC players ?), making a lot of people not wanting betrayal to be in core game. And then we'll be talking, thanks. Last edited by Dedisdead on Feb 22, 2019, 4:27:31 AM

three syndicates in the same map... I would be more confident if you said you put fortification and transportation in separated zone (as actual research).
Now I'm just afraid to meet two or three at once because of bugs. I never liked delve (I hated the darkness concept as it was revealed and the never fixed flare bug didn't help to like it), so I don't care about the sulphite scarab nerf. I guess if you balance it, there is a reason. certainly other ways to have sulphite in synthesis. |
