>posted in the last thread by accident. s-sorry how do i keep interested in this game long term? I'm really trying to find a new game that I can sink thousands of hours into. I've played this game maybe one month at a time over the last year. I've got about 8 level 70 plus characters, usually getting bored once I hit a brick wall with my equipment. Thing is I never had this problem with diablo 2. It's essentially the same game, except diablo 2 was more farming keys/runes/bosses and had runewords and I played that game for over 8 years of my life.
Sorry for being a faggot, I've been really struggling finding a game that I can stick to for a long period.
Jordan Stewart
Play HC, those faggots keep rerolling characters in their alt + f4 league
Not joking or anything, it's a good way of timesink in a videogame, all you need to "learn" properly is how to theorycraft, and the rest is up to the gameplay and yourself.

>how do i keep interested in this game long term? You don't, even those who have left/are leaving. sinking ship mostly sunk.
>I'm really trying to find a new game that I can sink thousands of hours into. Try Dominions 4. Not shitty general, takes a few hundred hours before you are even competent
>I've played this game maybe one month at a time over the last year. I've got about 8 level 70 plus characters, usually getting bored once I hit a brick wall with my equipment. You keep pushing, real drops are ahead.
>Thing is I never had this problem with diablo 2. It's essentially the same game, except diablo 2 was more farming keys/runes/bosses and had runewords and I played that game for over 8 years of my life. yeah.

The lasting appeal of PoE is theorycrafting, designing a build around an idea, a concept, a skill or a unique interaction, and bringing it to end game. Level "70+" doesn't really scratch the end game part, that's when your build actually starts to get interesting.
If you hit a brick wall with your gear, learn why, or even build around intentionally making cheap characters. There are tons of builds that work reasonably well on self-found gear. If you can't do that, then it's not the game for you, but honestly PoE is more than D2 ever was and I played the latter for close to a decade too.
contagion + ED occultist temp chains and vuln on CoH setup + enfeeble blasphemy with 1 additional curse on gear wield at least one obliteration aura nodes for determination + purity of elements because fuck resist on gear 250 ES and 140 life with ES recharge nodes + occultist ES shit
what do u think it's supposed to be pretty defensive
Aiden Campbell
Good idea. It'll make things at least interesting and risky every time I did anything. Thanks for the suggestion but dominions 4 doesn't look like it'd be my type of game. I got the farthest with my bladefall and voltaxic characters. Got to tier 14 with ease. Best drop I've had is a 5 link voltaxic perfect rolled (minus one damage) so I guess I understand about the drops aspect.
Ah, well..I usually stick to budget builds and take ideas from more expensive builds if I find better gear or trade up. I looked at a "major skill list" to mean things like mjollnir builds, arc builds, etc. And I really couldn't see many interesting choices. Arc, voltaxic, physical wander, things like that were the only ones that interested me.
Luis White
>Got to tier 14 with ease. What. So what was that about stopping with a bunch of level 70-something characters? T14 is end game. There's nothing really challenging past that, save for a few t15 bosses.
Jacob Sullivan
All you're limited to is your own imagination when trying to create fun builds, just check some interactions with skills/supports/uniques and start theorycrafting.
Charles Powell
Well that was the majority of my characters. My voltaxic character was level 86 and tier 14 was pretty easy if there werent anything that ruined mana regen.

Brody Morris
assumed you were playing HC. do that. if anyone's left they may even help you out with some starter gear before they leave.
Sebastian King
>temp chains and vuln on CoH setup sounds awkward. >wield at least one obliteration why, redundant with profane bloom, which itself is not really needed for ED. Void Beacon is MUCH better on 6 ascendant points. did you seriously plan an ED occultist build without the -20 chaos res aura? >aura nodes for determination literally why, grace is 100 times better considering you'll get jack shit armour from tree and gear, and evasion synergizes with enfeeble much better than armour >purity of elements because fuck resist on gear literally why that's why you're sacrificing dual blasphemy curses for? to run fucking purity of elements?
>250 ES and 140 life with ES recharge nodes + occultist ES shit don't see the point of going hybrid, but whatever.

>>aura nodes for determination >literally why, grace is 100 times better considering you'll get jack shit armour from tree and gear, and evasion synergizes with enfeeble much better than armour sorry, i meant discipline discipline + grace instead of purity could be better if i got the reduced mana nodes on sovereignety i just hate having to look for resist on everything, it's a personal taste thing i guess
and i didn't know void beacon had big range, maybe i can ditch the chaos explosion extra and go for that
i'll try it out

How do people play standard? The only thing keeping me playing is that any moment I can lose everything that I worked for. Makes everything worth so much more. Standard is like, oh I died, let me go back to my portal.
Asher Reed
i don't think anyone who posted in poeg when i first started playing still come here :(
Adrian Mitchell
Except you never lose your shit, not even in HC
Brody Williams
You mean you dont trash the things you collected on a character after dieing on HC? Why not just play standard if your going to do that.
John Lopez

That's a decision of the player itself, the game doesn't lose any of your shit.

So in today's Uber lab, I've been trying to do 4-key runs - I've fairly easily gotten to the final fight several times but every time the fight starts he slams me instantly. I'm not talking about jumping with a windup - he just seems to teleport on top of me and slam, killing me from ~6500EHP. Admittedly my PC might be so bad that I'm just missing a very accelerated jump. I've tried running out of the way with a quicksilver of adrenaline (BV MoM Pledge Pathfinder) but he still got me. Does anyone have any tips/hints on things I can try?
Wyatt Murphy
spec out of acrobatics and get some real defense lmao
Brayden Sanchez
>doesnt run more than half the mods >invests in a shitload of layers of defense >never attempts risky content >never tries new builds (on a game that resolves around that) because of reasons above >uses macros to logout at the minimal sight of danger >sometimes even uses autopot + auto DC
>>> "HARDCORE"
Nolan Lee
I do.
2012-2014 is when I came to /poeg/ to most. Now I only visit maybe once a month but looking at the way you post I take it you haven't been here long. So you're a stinky liar.
Caleb Anderson
Yes, this is what hardcore is about, assessing risk and threat levels, thinking about defenses and stacking them and straying away from unnecessary suicidal content. This takes thinking and live decision making. There's nothing remarkable about zerging "risky" content in shitcore and not caring about dying because you just hit your level so all you're actually losing is one map portal.
Brayden Jackson
>EHP lol

it's a fucking video game, keep telling yourself all that shit about how youre better and smarter
you idiots are excluding yourselves from so many fun content because you're pussies
there's no thinking needed, we all know what's dangerous, don't think too much of yourself bud
the difference is that sc people actually try it
Noah Williams

James Gomez
>this is what hardcucks want you to believe >implying it's not actually korean-style poopsocking dried lake to lvl 90 with your flask/logout macros
Daniel Carter
>it's a fucking video game, keep telling yourself all that shit about how youre better and smarter Well I'm better and smarter than you if I can do the same content deathless. >you idiots are excluding yourselves from so many fun content because you're pussies Fun is subjective. >the difference is that sc people actually try it There's nothing done in sc that isn't done in hc. The only difference is that shitcrows jump into a fire and say owie it burns! as if that's something to be proud of. Being retarded isn't bravery or being good at the game, and it takes no special skill to die, which is something shitcrows excel at.
Zachary Richardson
Shit retards say everyone.
Oliver Peterson
>implying people can't do the same in SC People like you are the ones that shoot up Orlando and Dallas.
Christopher Young
But you don't do the same content, you skip it. Unless you mean the storyline part, which doesn't mean much.
>There's nothing done in sc that isn't done in hc By that you mean there's nothing ATTEMPTED in hc that isn't DONE in sc rite
Nathaniel Anderson
>Well I'm better and smarter than you if I can do the same content deathless. you're not even doing the content, that's the point
>The only difference is that shitcrows jump into a fire and say owie it burns
the difference is that one of those try, fail, learn, the other one sees danger and hits the logout button on his macro
>Being retarded isn't bravery or being good at the game, and it takes no special skill to die
manually trying to dodge stuff VS hitting the logout
please tell me about them magical skills of the hardcore folk that dont even try hard content to begin with
Brandon Rogers
What mysterious content do you run in sc that I can't run in hc? And if you die to such content, can you say you beat it? No, it simply means you smashed your head against it and managed to zerg it within 6 portals. It's funny you deride stacking defenses as hardcore crutch then assume the fully defensive character can't handle any content you can handle as a dps warrior 4.5k life shitcrow.
Nolan Allen
>the difference is that one of those try, fail, learn Yeah that happens all the time in hardcore. Failure means losing your character, not 10% of your exp and nothing more. Not everyone in hc grinds dried lake to 100.
