So you don't have movement skills on all of your toons?


I don't understand what you're talking about? I have used movement skills like blink arrow, cyclone, whirling blades, lightning warp, leap slam and maybe some others that I can't think of right now. If that is what you mean, I don't understand the relevance of the question though? edit: I have played characters without any of those movement skills on them, if that is more relevant to your intended question?

All builds can have them and they are all you really need to deal with the traps. I use them to deal with a lot of things outside the lab, including traps. Whether you like or dislike the traps ( I dislike them ) they are not insurmountable, and builds, no matter what they are, have the tools available to them, ie... movement skills, pots, to beat the with little to no adjustments to passives.

Any build that is able to defeat the end boss can do the lab.

There are a lot of things in the game that are very lab trap like in their mechanics. ( there are even actual traps!) volatile blood, bearers, corrupting blood. All of these things require an action to counter their effects, that is very similar to the lab.

The only real difference here is in the animation of how it's applied to you.

Thank you for the thoughtful post. My perspective is that PoE is significantly flawed while requiring the trap gameplay in the labyrinth to complete character development. I do not consider your other examples of traps to be trap gameplay. Instead it is PoE gameplay with traps in it which I have no problems with. If GGG doesn't do something about character development being gated behind trap gameplay in 2.4 then I'm probably going to find another game to play.

Traps dont belong in POE. Ascendancy doesnt belong behing gated content. If I wanted to play trap platformer I have other games for that. Baddies. Kill. Get XP. Loot. It was a winning formula and they messed several parts of that up.
Support the cause. Free the ascendancy points from LAB.

Other top 3 issues. Make standard great again. Fix XP (add fatigue system). Fix lag.
MR GGG tear down this ascendancy wall.
In My opinion the lab just unfair. HP based characters can easily run throught almost all of traps. ES characters do it not so easily. Arm/block based characters can facetank Izaro. EV based are not. Some cheap builds can oneshot Izaro. Some builds must dance around him, and between traps in room, to survive.

Yes, other content also not fair to everyone. But other content not provide your ascendancy. Also uberlab rewards are best in the game.

How is block related to armor, more than evasion ???
It's not.

Next time I'll reroll I'll just go pure eva one more time, just so that I can laugh thinking about people saying that eva sucks in X / Y and Z cases, for example the lab.

Some cheap builds can cheese the lab, that's not really a good thing, I agree on that.
SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.

I think GGG gets to decide what belongs in their game, not you.

Doing something stupid just because you can, is the opposite of smart.

Doing something stupid with your business thus hurting your customers/followers, just because you can, is the opposite of smart and not ethical.

Doing something stupid with your business, hurting customers, living with the consequences/paying the price, but not giving a fuck, because you can, is called how?

posting something stupid thus hurting your own argument, just because you can, is the opposite of smart and has nothing to do with ethics.

[Removed by Support] won't help you personally, nor the game itself. [Removed by Support] but the state of the game affects a bigger audience.
