I feel like my progress is 0,00% a day, is this normal for a newby?

Hi,

Just hit lvl94 by doing temple leech since 75.
Then just bought some items on the market using the Divines I got from the "temple runners" (I've got ONE Divine drop on my 200 played hours lol).

Then I got 75% capped resistances, 1500 life, 4000 ES and a nice build that goes trought lvl15 maps easyly (some randome death, I'm fine with that).

The question is...
Every day, after playing let's say 2 or 3 hours... I left the game with the same feeling: "I'm at the same exact point I was 3 hours ago", not even a 0,0001% progression towards... nowhere/anywhere? I don't know how to express it better but I feel like I don't know when/where/how will I "unlock" the next progression tier for my character.

I mean, if I got a Divine every hour, for example, I will feel like I'm going to have 20 divines next weekend and then I will replace my body armour to get 1% more power... but that's not the case, there is no progression at all.

Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong or maybe not doing something I should do!?

Then I see people running 76 rooms temples with bosses that kills me being on the previous room and the question is "how can I?".

Thanks for reading and sorry for such a noob question lol

Putting the temple aside (it will be nuked next league) did you kill all the pinnacle bosses? Is there any game mechanic that you haven’t done yet? If your answer is yes and no then you beat the game. Any further upgrade for your character only help you do the same things little bit faster. Unless you want to min max your character then you can set your own goals of reaching lvl100, highest possible dps, etc.

Gets carried through perhaps the only meaningful 'progression' part of a new character, proceeds to buyout gear that trivializes the vast majority of 'content' in the game and then wonders why they've got nothing to strive for...

The next steps are beyond you, because in order to understand how to effectively farm gear/currency, or min-max your character, you need to actually play the game and learn its mechanics/systems.

Temple is insanely overtuned compare to anything we ever had in PoE2 or PoE1

While other stuff also makes more currency because Divines lost a lot of their value because how much they drop in Temple. Omen of Light is 33 Div or something.

But worst thing to do is asking for currency, or accepting currency from someone, it instantly ruins your gameplay, mood, and motivation to play. Like those giveaways on reddit, someone win 5000 Divines, but then what the point of doing anything if you just got 5000 Divines by doing nothing.

Getting free stuff and being carried is two main things that ruin your gameplay.

I'd suggest trying SSF, infinitely more interesting compare to worst economy we've ever seen.
Or try to beat all T3 bosses, while it's not that hard anyway. And then go SSF.

So … you leeched for 75-94.

Skipping any personal progression at all …


And now are asking what happened to your progression?




Stop asking/taking part for/in carries and learn more about the game

Would be a first step.

You can't make this sh*t up.

/Defense force swarm! Swarm!

So the answer is no, you just all latched onto the one way you could avoid answering the question.

Convenient.

OP you are bad, stop asking questions you didn't play 'correctly'.

Yeah I'm going to spend time writing a 10 page explanation with footnotes and references (otherwise a greenhorn such as this would never understand a single sentence) for somebody who cba to even do the basic progression on a single character.

Yes, they didn't play correctly.

When you use the market , you buy the win.

Id say you are supposed to play , find and craft.
But ill be honest , its just a roulette wheel.

You are supposed to have goals.
Unfortunately and it a little harsh.

Devs care too much about the market and gambling.
I play SSF and i got bored in end game before i could complete.
I think i was lvl 94 92 ... someplace in there ...

Its not fun for me , its just no hit boss runs .
One shot mechanics are through the roof.

You can stay relatively safe on blue maps ..
But safe is borring, and fun is too punishing.
Have fun , die , fun over , logout.

It a problem i alluded to in another post.
There is a lore hole in the game and no reason to do anything.

This is bait.
