My 2c on Lab

Lab is so fun idea.
When i go there i have to prepare if i don't lab is going to destroy me soooo hard hehe.

For me as soft-core player lab felt very painful from beginning. I never was so upset after dying in this game. The only reason for this is the time i have to invest for second run, very painful and long run.

My first lab run rip was the only reason i stopped playing previous league after 2 days. I came back after month and leveled to 80 with all labs and it waws fun, endgame was fun not lab hehe.

For me personally all i need in lab for change is re-spawns after each boos fight and im happy as soft-core scrub :)

Now im doing AngryAA lab runner build and i will conquer this stupid place :) and its nice to do melee build once fore a time.
How the hell can you feel lost/hopeless/whatever in the lab?

Equip movement skill.

Enter lab.

Follow the wall, clockwise or anticlockwise = your choice.

Never get lost.

Done.
It seems that some players just cannot understand this, I don't know why???




Someone will make a post saying that they hate/dislike the lab...

Then, other players will turn up on the thread and say things like:



"Lab isn't that hard, just run fast with good life pots"...

or.. "Run it a few times to get used to it and you will see it's pretty easy"

Or.. "I didn't like the lab but I really wanted the Ascendancy points and now I think it's easy".

Or... "Pay someone to run it for/with you and get the points"

"I dunno what you'se are whinging for, the lab is easy, I do it in 3 minutes"

Or some similar nonsense.

What these players can't seem to get is that we who do *not* like the lab don't want to run it!

We don't want to "learn it" or "get used to it".

For us, the lab is stupid, boring, laggy, and has no place in an arpg game like PoE!



Can you guys understand that?

I'll spell it out for you slowly, so you get it straight:

We ... don't ... like ... the ...frackin' ... Lab!


It's pretty basic, not hard to understand at all.

The Lab is an arcade/super mario/frogger style of game that doesn't belong in PoE.

End of story.

Dont like it, dont run it, end of story.

I dont like masters, i dont farm them, do you see me going on a crusade spamming the forums about how i hate masters and how they should be removed from the game and how their mods are "gated" ? Nope. In fact no one does that anymore, they did that when they were first released and it blew over. Just like the Labyrinth posts will.
Harvest sucks! But look at my decked out gear two weeks in!

master dailies and getting 6-8 asscandy points are completely the same and can be compared to eachother no doubt!

some people never cease to surprise me on general salt discussions.


Nope, this lab crap wont just 'blow over'.

Too many players dislike/hate it for that to happen.

As far as the master leveling goes, it isn't anything like lab. Not even close.

And this:>>>>

"Dont like it, don't run it" ???

Oh sure, what a load of garbage that is.

Not having those ascendancy points on your characters automatically places you in much more dangerous situation/position playing in this game.

I've heard that one quite a few times already, can't you come up with something more original?

Like: "Lab is ez, get gud"

Oh..hang on, I've heard that one quite a few times too from fanboys like you.

Get it ?

I dont think you understand how good masters are if you honestly dont think they compare at all to Ascendancy points, but i mean if you want to make ignorant statements like that, its on you. Feel free to stay ill informed, you guys wonder why Scouring Master crafts stayed secret for soo long, lol.

Thats really classic coming from the guy who spams the same post in anything related to the labyrinth, i think the one who lacks originality here is you.

Well, there are always going to be fanboys who will just accept whatever GGG does no matter how bad it is or how alien to the game it is.

Guys like you who say things like "Don't like it, don't run it" ..

You just can't, or won't see how wrong the lab is in this game.

Or maybe you do, but still praise GGG simply because you are a fanboy.

Try being honest with yourself and everyone else for a change.

Do you *really* like the lab with all it's glaring faults, lags, disconnections, ersatz hc style, tedious boring stupid arcade trap play?

Honestly? Do you?

Oh great, the classic "youre a fanboy" insult because they dont agree with you.

I quite enjoy the labyrinth, maybe you never played perandus or saw the posts i made complaining about how the timer was set for the leaderboards. I was often in the top 5 for a few weeks before the true labyrinth builds came, then i started to be in the top 10-20. I posted about how i didnt like how SSD users had the advantage and how it could be solved by using time stamps upon entry which was never changed.

I was also one of the only people selling enchanted helmets and making huge amounts of currency from it as well.

Disconnects only happen if your internet is bad, as someone who enjoys softcore because i dont care about hardcore, i do appreciate the extra challenge the labyrinth presents with the "one portal" concept. Its a great breath of fresh air and gives softcore players some extra challenge without them having to play hardcore.

Oh and funny enough, im a big torchlight 2 fan, one of my posts a few years ago was a feedback post saying i think it would be neat if they added secret areas and traps to the game. Funny enough that dream because reality and i quite enjoy it.

Maybe youve never played torchlight but heres an example of how punishing THEIR traps are in comparison to traps in POE, which quite literally tickle.

I do find it rather funny how you insist you think you know peoples true feelings on the matter though.
