XP penalty removed popularity of this game to near zero.

last 5 points are not build defining.
that is not the point, the point is xp loss on death and unbalanced mobs

agree it would definitely be less painful with actually balanced games and Monsters, that would make the xp seem like its more fair and your own fault instead of bs


Just die less?
People play at high levels in HCSSF all the time without any issues.
On the other hand you have those who complain about dying so much it has this much of an impact while also being able to get busted gear from poe.trade.
Make it make sense.

Abysmal XP gain is a problem in this game past 90, but losing XP from dying too much is not.

This gotta be ragebait, i will bet everything you are playing lightning spear and have atleast 3k energy shield. Thank you now i know the solution to my problem i just need to die less thank you. You saying there is no problem because some players are surviving in hardcore with 1 or 2 specific gimmick builds with es that makes them not die is crazy.

Its the shitty rng map and unbalanced mobs + the incredible unbalanced defences and classes that makes you die not skill issues, mostly. I would want to see you play with my spiral volley deadeye build and not get frustrated by the game. And let me tell you i tried everything my build is pretty much maxed out. And then you prolly say just play something else, no because i play what i want to play. Then its my problem right? i should just play a meta build.
If you can't see the problem now i don't know what to tell you.
Btw i have like 6 different builds in doth and played almost 2k hours so i know what im doing. Been playing since ea started. And spiral volley deadeye was fine in 0.1 now that they nerfed combat frenzy and winddancer/evasion its not fine its annoying to play, why do you think all of the people plays ls and has so much more of a enjoyable time? maybe cuz its the most consistent that don't have to deal with the ton of annoying shit, like most map modifiers, deli mobs, CORRUPTION, and things that can make you generally insane.

I dont think that matters as much as people think. If I had all of the XP I lost on dying would be.....maybe a single level...one and a half tops.

What you're taking away from the player is time.
And time is valuable.


Well, there is an easy fix: just play better. Sounds conceding, but that is actually the solution to dying.
At the eve of the end
For me the most annoying things that make me hate the game is:

1. There is no balance between defences.

2. Movement speed isn't balanced between classes. Some classes running like Flash Hero and ruining party experience gain.

3. Some classes have joke skills. Completely useless, slow, bugged while others killing like there is no tomorrow.

4. No innovative ideas to Endgame

5. Everything is gambling in crafting and not only there.

6. Vendors are rubbish and sell junk things. I wanna see weapons and gears baughtable with Divs.

7. Passive tree benefits only specific builds and there's no build diversity.

8. Passives are small in amount. Need at least 130 for some builds. Or f...g fix the balance.

This is very simple:
1. XP penalty
2. Critical Kills from random mobs (done intentionally)
3. Crafting as slot machine


No playing this Souls ARPG since I achieve lvl 94 and 500+ h

I would bet money that most of the "XP loss is fine" people would change their minds really fast if they disabled pause during combat.

Nah. We haven't had pause for more than 12+ years in PoE 1 and managed just fine.

This has nothing to do with pause.

agree probably not the most important point, pause is nice though

I'm the "XP loss is fine" people - i literally have a topic of this name.
I didn't know you can pause the game as i almost exclusively play in 2-3man group.
