Thats the reason I stopped at 6/8 on Anarchy/Ons, and thats why I have no interest in doing any of those challenges. Yeah, I'll complete rare, boss, shrines and +65 chars, but just because I play the game, not because I aim for them.
They made the same mistake again with unique challenge, and none of the decent, good or imba uniques drops. Never. ^Period. Just low level uniques again and again. And you run with 87/267 mf LOL, think about others with less mf playing solo. Really, GGG should address this fast, before most of us lose our will to play. ♠RaGoN♦ Last edited by RaGoNXIII#1248 on Dec 4, 2013, 8:46:35 AM

Glad someone finally made a topic about this. Saw it on reddit also but it will get downvoted to oblivion there.
This challenge is beyond ridiculous. If these uniques still dropped everywhere, it would be OK, but as it is, pointless. THERE is ONE Ming for sale in nemesis and domination. There is ONE voltaxic. ONE void battery.ONE thunderfist. If you removed these items, it would still be an insane challenge with Kaoms, Shavs, Soultaker, but at least you could grind for them. I think the reason it is so hard, is as mentioned, T-shirt. I would much rather get a "Challenge DemiGod" item in game, like a race prize. It's not like I've ever gotten my T-shirt from Anarchy/Onslaught anyways. As it is, I will probably finish getting to 7, and then quit playing this game until next league. I don't see any point to trying to get the unique one, now. So the challenges will end up making me play less, which I don't think was the intended effect. Anarchy/Onslaught T shirt

The challenge is to only acquire those 65 uniques, not to self-find those 65 uniques. This means that to complete this challenge you should be accumulating wealth and trading for those items. Running maps is not and has never been a good way to make currency - maybe you should try other methods for completing the challenge. Sure it's much harder than it was last season but it's possible and people will complete it without RMT. It's called a challenge for a reason - if no one was able to complete it, then sure that's a problem, but if you yourself agree that 5+ people will complete it... what's the problem then?
EDIT: Also your highest level character on domination is 81 (yes I know you have 2x 81 and 1x 78, but still)... unless you're dying all the time, I'm not sure how you can say you've done a ton of high level maps and still only reach lvl 81. Last edited by SKTRain#3722 on Dec 4, 2013, 9:18:04 AM

Just sounds like someone is butthurt. Challenges are time consuming, deal with it.

" I don't think 5 people will complete it unless they are popular streamers or RMT. There is currently 1 of each of these items for sale in any league and we are over 1/4th of the way in. Most people reroll rather than grind 76+, and many people (ie over 1/2 of the top of the anarchy ladder) just pack it in and quit until the next league. C/O on the only voltaxic for sale in domination is 50 exalts for a 6 socket. It doesn't even have a buyout. All it takes is someone else going for the challenge to spend all their currency on one of these items and you are blocked permanently. I bet your tune changes closer to the end of the league.

" spoken like some one who has absolutly no concept of how astronomically difficult it is to get all the unique items in under 4 months. so let me enlight you , there is no legitimate way to get the achievement through farming . you need to play the trade game and rip off 100s of exalts worth from people just to afford 4 items on the unique list. On top of that , there are two new factors that makes this particular league challenge much harder than the previous ones. there are more uniques and the rarest of those uniques are gated behind the highest of the high end maps . as in not only is this time consuming. it is physically impossible to accomplish for anyone who does not play 10 hours a day and get bro dealed. a challenge that requires a person to make path of exile their day job, is a very badly designed challenge It only serves to further illustrates how much blood ggg is willing too squeeze out of people by introducing arbitrary time wasting mechanics . |

" Say what you will, challenges aren't meant to be easy or for casual gamers who feel like they can log on couple hours a day/10 hours a week and expect to make huge progress in the game + get a gold medal just because they managed to get to 65 without dying and maybe kill a few monsters in the process. Games will always have extremely time consuming challenges, for example the title "the insane" in world of warcraft was the definition of time consuming and guess what? people still went for it" No one is holding a gun to your head saying do these challenges so get over it. |

" The guy who made the OP plays often over 12 hours a day and has several top 10 race finishes. The other guy with a seven is ranked TOP 5 (#2 last I looked) on domination ladder. I'm not exactly sure what people YOU are talking about. Anarchy/Onslaught T shirt

" What's a problem with my characters? My GodofCyclone is finished on 80lv - fb cyclone 30k dps - fully enough to clear ANY of maps + 6 ppl solo Dominus. My Pibbarrian - is new MF character - no point to lv-up him. And yes, we playing on maps every days and still don't get any MAP only uniques.
