Labyrinth,the worst content ever made in POE?
" Its just a very generic design. The worse your char is, the easier the lab becomes (aside from es builds). Your class and build dont matter, all you want is movement speed and whirling blades + less duration + fast attks. Any class, any build (if you have right wep) can do this. The sad part is even lvl 1 gems are just as good as 20/20's. Fall asleep fighting mobs you cant even target before death, avoid untargetable things that kill you in 3 secs (if not moving, no matter your char) only to be woken up to fight a boss who steals your vaal souls and makes you listen to his jibber jabber until he is ready to fight. |

" That's a good point, too. It does invalidate gear progression to some extent, which is pretty core to ARPGs. I didn't really consider that. |

Playing the labyrinth I can see the team has put a huge effort in developing it. It has very beutiful areas, but my praise will stop here.
Unfortunately it doesn't fit the game style. It would be fine if this was only necessary for ascending your char, but it's meant to be farm to get enchantment ! This is the worse content I have to go thru in this game. It's too long, can't trade, no XP etc. All i want when I enter the lab is to get out ASAP. I hate those BS traps. What do we have traps in a arpg game anyway ? Don't force us to farm this area, it sucks, big time. |

" Thats actually a great idea, give us the option to complete a map or do the lab. Some people like the super mario/pitfall type game play, others prefer to kill stuff and get xp/loot. |

" Screw you, I play traps and love them :D Unfortunately mine are targettable after 5secs. Didnt see the tree node that makes them untargetable like the monsters have. I thought this game was based on balance? Mobs and players have the same disposale of skills/spells. Much like d2, thats what made poe great, perfect balance no cheese. |

" Or finally giving credit to you after 100 bad posts. |
|
" 30k bad post? Nah man, they arent all bad, your being hard on yourself. |
|
" Getting real tired of all the LAZY and reductionist arguments like these: 1) It's not mandatory, go do something else Yeah right...convince any serious player in POE, nay, half-serious casual player, that these new OP +1000000 Elemental Damage and 500% Crit nodes aren't mandatory, lol 2) Oh you have criticisms, well why do we even play games at all in the first place? Why are there computers in the first place? Why did the big bang occur? UGH... 3) I'm great at the labyrinth, it's easy, just figure it out, what you complaining about? This would be fine if it was just a difficulty matter. It's wayyy more than that |

So GGG decided to punish only leaugue players?nice

It's just 3 playthrough it's not big deal and take way less time of writing and reading 15 forum pages :/
By the way it looks pretty fine to me that a Arpg requires some skill, like NOT jumping on a trap. There were peaple complaining because they couldn't facetank traps. Avoiding them? For an Emperor to be just, an Emperor must be patient.
