I second this.

A league where players are not cross realm trading to get a jump on everyone else would bring me back. A reset of hardcore or a permanent new version of hardcore for all of the newcomers would be welcomed as well.

I am unclear on how cross realm trading can benefit a new league. Are you implying that someone who finds a bis in the new league would intentionally trade that away for something in standard or hardcore league? Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

The four month leagues are effectively a 'soft ladder reset' for those of us that like to get fresh economies every couple of months. On the other hand, there are players that don't enjoy rerolling and want to keep playing their already levelled character. That is what standard league is for.

I am unclear on why people think it is 'unfair' that someone who found something in another league gets to keep it in standard. Ultimately, that item would end up there anyways, at some point. That's the whole point of standard. It's the catch-all league for casual players to let them level/play at their own pace to their hearts content.

Anyone that is competitive and/or enjoys the challenge of levelling will always be attracted to the shorter duration leagues, untainted by screwed up economies. You can't have your cake and eat it too...

Nemesis is going to be amazing, and from the information given - it's going to be hard as hell which Onslaught really wasn't.

Nemesis is just as disappointing as Onslaught was. At least the rogue exiles will spawn in it.

OP has some great IGNs.

Anyway. Nemesis should be fun, I'm curious to see the mods. With exiles and these new rares, it will be hard I think.

This is WAY more impressive than self-found league.

And GGG might be making changes so self-found is better on all leagues.

great, another reason not to play melee ...

I think the reflecting projectiles mod is much more of a burden on ranged characters than exploding on death is for melee. A problem throughout the fight vs one that can solved easily by having a culling ranged attack for the killing blow.

It's not that hard to equip a handful of fucking Bear Traps. Bitch bitch bitch.

I'm a little unclear on how exactly the shrines even work. Like, do they have their own health bar so you could just kill some of the surrounding monsters to make it safe to run in and grab? Does it become unavailable to the player as soon as they engage the surrounding monsters? I don't really get it.... the whole thing seems kind of hokey.

I guess we'll know soon enough.
