Exping over level 97 is boring and totally interest in game killing

I think get level 100 must be a prize. So it must be hard to reach.

You dont need to get such level to get a character complete. My main character is now 97 and it is the same since level 90.

When I wanted leveling I have done safe content for me with amelioration omen. Just that.

It is boring, yes, but it is not mandatory, so you can reach another goal. Then, I've returned to do danger content.

I have reached level 97 just to see a character in my list with more than level 96, the maximum level I got in Diablo 2 LOD. A whim :D

dude the amount of exp needed after lvl 97 is insane not to mention beyond that .

Never played a character to 100, just a waste of time tbh, why get annoyed with game design you don't like.

Indeed it is. Becouse some builds do insane damage before reaching level 88 and others need rreaching 130 level to do this power of damage.

Balance is NONEXISTENSE.

reaching lvl 100 is a grinding challenge and not at all mandatory. you can complete any content in the game with a lvl 80 character.

Until it becomes a Challenge like it is in every PoE1 league.

"Mindlessly grind for 500 hours," is not a challenge. The only thing it is, is a time sink in a game without a subscription cost and therefore no reason to try and force players to no-life the game every few months.

We're also talking about a game that restarts every 3-4 months. Adding on a 500+ hour mindless grind is...a choice.

It's not even the EXP you need. It's the EXP falloff from monsters being so under-leveled in comparison to you. If they gave the same EXP at Lv.90 as they did at Lv.100, the grind would still be a grind, but one that is far more realistic and still a goal to achieve. But by the time you're Lv.99, you're getting like 1% EXP from them, if that. In PoE1, with Lv.~83 mobs, you get a sad 4% or so. You can't even reliably get Lv.82 mobs in PoE2.

This doesn't have to do anything with levels.

Here is a lesson in simple arithmetic:
From 97 to 98 levels, I need to gain 3638189694-3373538533 = 264651161 experience.
The current rate is 3902584 experience per hour.
So, I need to play (3638189694-3373538533)/3902584 = 67.8143 hours.
I can play maximum 3 hours a day.
This means that it takes 67.8/3 = 22.6 days.
That's if I don't die.
Now, attention, the question is: What is your -10% for? So that what? Humiliate the players?

Punish the mistakes.

Make it hard to reach level 100. Only a few chosen can do it. I'm not, it does not matter. I don't care.

We are arguing here while other people are reaching level 100 :P Priorities...

Just did a test map (non optimized random 6 mod one with 3x pack size deli, not even a T16 corrupted abyss one and no atlas re-spec for lvling) and got roughly 1 mil XP in 4 min which would be about 15mil/h.

So from lvl 98 to 99 it would take me about 19-20 hours with this non-optimized mapping.
Your numbers are weird.
