One Death Maps is a monumental failure.

Yup -- PoE1 clone -- essentially.

That has around 8k players right now. That's not enough to sustain their company.

I see you have no clue what you're talking about.

Not the point of the post buddy but thanks for fulfilling the prophecy that someone will misunderstand someone elses point and say "git gud."

My Witch has an army of 20 skellies that evaporate maps.
My Monk has almost maxed evasion and Heralds just decimate everything in sight.
My Warrior is actually fantastic, tanking hits for days with 780HP regen per second so I barely have to life flask, just reposition and block.

My builds aren't the issue.

The point of the post is;
Endgame is half baked. It's full of atrocious crap that invalidates and makes obsolete the design intention of the One Death Map experience.

If I'm supposed to have One Death in my maps, my maps need to feel really, really solid, with very little obnoxious 1HKO crap and janky nonsense that can rob me of that precious single opportunity due to no fault of my own other than the game failing to deliver on its promise (fluid and smooth gameplay).

Right now there's so, so many issues. Until those issues are changed, we need some lenience on the map deaths.

And this can be achieved in a very simple way.

For each portal closed, you lose -10% XP gain and 10% drop rate.
When 6 portals are closed, you can still reset the map with another waystone (which is itself a negative but not as punishing) and if that is done you should only lose;

Breach.
Expedition.
Delirium.

Those are the really "extra" feeling activities right now.
Rituals are very necessary (most of my good gear has come from them and same for my friends.)
Radiation + corruption is just necessary flavour and texture, along with map bosses being pretty much essential when this games built more for "bossing".

Those things should never go away.
Only Breach, Expedition and Delirium should.

This is not a hard concept for anyone who's played a few hundred hours right now to grasp.

You obviously have no idea why GGG separated PoE2 from PoE.

They realized that focusing a DLC on a game with less than 10k players would be a waste of money. So, they smartly split it off and claim that they were going to make PoE2 into an easier experience to get into. Mainly because GGG rightly realized that Path of Exile is a bloated mess of conflicting mechanics and too many things that don't tell the player where to even start. Which is not the same as handholding, but fanboys like you don't and will actively refuse to understand that.

The problem is that GGG doesn't know who to make the game easier to get into, in fact, they don't seem to actually care beyond their pet classes. They definitely don't care about any feedback. They don't even respond to any of their forum threads.

Let's not forget that if they even do read (which I honestly and seriously doubt) they never go past the first page.

1 portal per map is a total BS.

I once found a book on amazon "making pancakes after acid trip" i think this may have been a stable read for person who though about this.

LOL on my Thread (SSF Buff Loot compensate Trade) -- a few days ago -- some dude -- I got inspiration from him -- that posted "IQ 48".
