p.s.
I won the first GGG sponsored LLD community with live stream and PvP ladder with multiple series of matchups. I won for HC WITH MELEE when puncture was the most OP thing. No one was able to catch up to my prowess until benches and master mods. I still have some of the best UNBENCHED gear around. There is no doubt of my skill so please spare me.

Behold, a true pvp god

Past a certain easy to reach threshold, there seriously is no skill involved in the actual game play of poe pvp.. And there never has been either. Maybe one day these legendary pvp monsters players will figure this one out.

Also, the pvp is so figured out at the moment that there really isnt any true skill in the build creation part either. It is just a dull and boring experience altogether because there is nothing left to do.

Ya so why are u always shitting on great casual pvp ideas and never bringing any of your own to the table? You are like this pessimistic cloud that infects the community. I come up with simple ideas on how to attract more casual attention to pvp so the PvE players, and others who are so against the thought of a Development company investing any assets into ARPG's competitive PvP, wont be so outraged. So many players just shitting on ARPG PvP. so have to find a balance.

Outside sarn arena would be vendors/masters stash/guildstash

If you could do something real tricky like have it all in one instance then being able to slip off to the sideline for re-gearing sounds great. Not to mention having a non-hostile zone so folks could come watch, like some sort of arena or something, would be pretty cool as well. Watching you guys fight can be equally as entertaining as actually fighting. I suppose there'd be issues with that 180 second daily, that'd need some fine tuning.

This was one of my favorite things about diablo 2. I loved watching from the safety of town. Also gives you the ability to set up teams without being trolled. If we had this in the game, I would do nothing other than pvp.

Were you high when playing D2 ? How the fuck could you watch what was happening outside town ? The Blood Moor was freaking huge and they were no spectator mode like PoE.

minimap dots were informative enough :P

**imagination**

also 'hostility' mode was optional.

I played d2 a few thousand hours. I was able to spectate pvp easily not sure how you weren't able to.

Seems like you smoked too much of it and went too far into the nostalgia trip.
Let me remind you how D2 pvp looked like :

Now i'd be pretty interested to know how you could spectate anything (appart from red names teleporting around) from "the safety of town" with 800x600 screen resolution.

Spoiler Alert

I would've refrained from saying anything if you weren't so antagonistic about it.

Have you never done D2 tourneys of best of 5 1v1s? How the fuck do you think judges checked to make sure players respected the rules? They partied with whoever they were judging (to see the health bar) and did not hostile the other. They could then freely walk around in blood moore to spectate.

In a pub game, you were likely stuck at the town entrance only catching glimpses of fights if they happened close enough, but you're dismissing spectating entirely while being a dick about it when in fact

Spoiler Alert

Simplesim is dude in the middle
