I WANT TO PLAY, BUT THEY WON'T LET ME....

Levelling to 34 takes no time at all, especially for an experienced player like yourself. Fight through the tedium.

As to why all skill gems aren't usable at level 1, it's mainly a matter of balance. Some skills would trivialize early content, even if power-adjusted. Others rely on stat ranges and synergies that aren't available in early game.

Void Sphere would be especially powerful in early game due to crowd control.

You can consider developing an active skill

Start playing a purchased MTX from the first level of the character - GET FUN immediately

As the game progresses, the structure of the skill can evolve (change):

1. Damage increases
2. A new parameter with the worst value appears
3. ....
10. Some parameter reaching its maximum level of value can be removed.
x. when a large number of small parameters are accumulated, they are replaced by a more significant one.

Why are some people allowed on the forum? They do not see the development - do not see the subtleties of the game and leave unconstructive comments, which is prohibited by the code of conduct

Unconstructive comments aren't "prohibited by the code of conduct"
Making unnecessarily negative comments, sure.

Also I'm quite sure most people don't read your articles.

Having played six years, you should know that most skills are not available to be used from the very beginning on a level 1 character. If using a skill effect MTX on a level 1 character is so important to you, why didn't you check the level requirements for void sphere before making the MTX purchase?

It seems you made a hasty decision and you're now not willing to accept responsibility. Instead of complaining, why not make the best of it and take the opportunity to try some skills you haven't used yet on your way to level 34? It's not like getting to level 34 is a monumental achievement and takes and enormous amount of time and effort.

Seems much more productive than what you're trying to do here and will actually let you use the MTX you purchased while leveling. If you're not even willing to do that, you can't blame anyone but yourself for not letting you play.

Yes, - you are absolutely right - you gain experience until you are 76 and you will be interesting to read, and here on the forum only young people sit in their 40s - I haven't met a one-year-old who understands........

You have nothing constructive to contribute to the development of this topic....

I bought this MTX a long time ago and played it a few times when my interest in the game was more keen - and I'd play it now, but I lack the motivation to reach level 34.

If you don't have the motivation to level to 36 to play your desired skill with the MTX you own, how about another game then? Bird feeding simulator or report illegal parking simulator maybe?

You complain someone doesn't have sth constructive to answer, but then you say: "oh well, but i don't have the motivation to level to 36", which is as unconstructive as it gets.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it's a language barrier issue.

The word "Constructive" is a somewhat broad term. It can mean to create or improve upon something, but it can also mean to add understanding to something, such as a question. i.e, to provide an answer that is intended to be beneficial to the asker.

(In this particular case: Explaining why some skills aren't suitable for early game content, based on the way certain aspects of the game synergize and how crowd control can trivialize gameplay).

In the same way that a person might help to build a house, they might also help to build a person's understanding. In both regards, any action intended to have a beneficial purpose is constructive.

That is what GGG means when they say "civil, constructive discussion".

Leaving negative comments, on the other hand, such as implying that a person shouldn't be on the forum, or stating that a person is uninteresting based on their age, is clearly defined in the Code of Conduct. I would advise caution in that regard.

How did you even know these games existed? Tell me more.

I have not been interested in this topic for a long time, so I have not read it, but I can say that this code of conduct was written by young people who are not yet 50 years old and do not have enough life experience. The requirement for constructiveness should be spelled out among other requirements - this would lead to fewer conflicts on the forum and would reduce the work of moderators themselves to deal with these conflicts.

This forum needs a professional code of conduct
