The labyrinth is both boring and frustrating

Im very happy your the only one who posts in blue text.

dont use that blue text, mkay? it is pain to read on certain devices and really stands out in 'im flashy' way. just please dont. and yes, pink is also 'no' pretty please


as for the backslash - ive took some time to sort out the 'whine' threads around here and there are like 5 loudmouths spreading the 'lab is bad QQ' in every possible place. the same guys, same posts, same tears

reddit has already moved on and are having a blast setting up farm strategies for each day

i do not like ggg's policy of 'reddit-first' when it comes to direct interaction with the player base but i kinda understand it now.


thread summary: lab is difficult for people that were used to being carried by their gear. it might be frustrating to be removed from the seat of absolute power - i understand that. but if anything i expect the no-logout policy (because that is where the real pain is, isnt it) will only get 'proliferated'

it might be boring for some - it is a taste thing and everyone has its own. but if you want the ASC points - do your chores. these points are rewards for doing something. that are the rules. you can a) ignore the challenges b) complete them. somehow people think c) (whine) is the answer. but you know what.. noone sees that 'mass exodus' of players

labyrinth is both boring and frustrating FOR getting the team together in the same instance.

Seriously I enjoy public team labyrinth, but requiring everyone to be in the plaza b4 entering is just too stupid.

Labyrinth is fine.
You are just shocked for something new, and automatically assume defensive position. Learn it and get better as a player. You'll enjoy it, I guarantee.

I just finished at first attempt Cruel one, 15 mins, 58 lvl character. Bored and frustrated that I need to do it. Guarantee, you say?

I died few times there. Done 30 min+ runs, and 10 minute ones. All were enjoyable. I guess it comes down to ones attitude. ;+) If you chose to be salty and negative about everything - you will. Labyrinth is something else PoE needed. If you don't want something else, just play stuff you always played.

I don't like Atziri farming. You know what I do about it? I don't do Atziri runs. I could be going around forums, posting shit about Atziri being "boring and frustrating". I won't. Why? Because I don't want stuff that other people like to be changed.

Would you want Labyrinth changed, and my experience ruined?

look I don't have a problem with traps = death, I DO have a MASSIVE problem with the death happing because I don't have a smooth playing computer or connection. Its not the traps, is the requirement to have to have things that people shouldn't be reasonable expected to be able to control in order to succesfuly play.

I also don't like Atziri. I also ould be going around forums, posting shit about Atziri being "boring and frustrating". I won't. Why?

Because Atizi doesn't gate skill tree progression behind it.

Get out of my thread.

Labyrinth is optional content, get over it people. Also fun or not fun is subjective, lot of people is having a good time with it.

The only thing I would change in the labyrinth, personally, tuning a bit the difficulty on normal/cruel for boss fights and then going even more into the risk/reward model, if you beat Izaro's with max boosts you should be able to do 3 enchants on one run for example.

Is good the game got some risk/reward in the game finally and endgame content besides ridiculous maps for a change.

The game has gotten more and more boring over the years because is becoming too easy, facerolling content 99% of the time, and with the current power creep even more. And no, I do not play OP builds, and yes I've done the lab in self-found gear in a fresh league.

P.S: yes, it truly is optional, ascension is optional.
