So whats the Problem? Something has to be grind-heavy. Be happy to at least have some goal left you can aim for. League will probably be running for around 2 more months so you got plenty of time left.

Thanks for the statistics, I love those.

A few things about prophecy though:
-The challenge chain quests barely spawned for me, I still only have three completed and simply gave up on them. Because they were too hard to get for me, I gave up on them al together.
-The monkey pet(and quite some more pets) are way too small in my opinion. Please make them a bit bigger, or add a slider so players can set their own size for their pets.
-The backtracking... this wouldn't be a problem if we could set a level for entire merciless. Please allow us after we reach level 80 or so, to change merciless into one giant level area( level 70). So act 1 twilight strand, to act 4 malachai, becomes entirely level 70. This would allow players to use entire merciless to farm. Backtracking for quests/league thingies, and divination cards would be fun to do.
-Really loved these challenges, although I'd suggest one important change. Instead of 300 maps from map bosses, make it 300 maps from map bosses OR fully clear a map. So when the boss doesn't drop anything, players can still get 1/300 by clearing the map entirely.
-One other challenge change I'd like to see is a change to the last challenge.(100 atziri kills,1200 volls etc). I'd like this challenge to include some other bosses as well, but keep it at two total.

Prophecies are a fun little side-game. I really like them, still hope I get to see the other chains some day. Please add ALL league content to standard, including perandus, talisman and prophecy. Without any changes to them. These things are alot of fun, and should always stay in the game.

While we're on the topic of challenges...

Holy fuck. Where do you find and kill a rare Pitbull Demon in Merciless? Because the ones that spawn in Daresso area are "Pit Butcher" and apparently do not count. So I'm literally sitting on 1 monster type unfound. I'm trying to run maps that they spawn in, but the "Pitbull Demon" is usually a guest monster in the lower tier maps and the maps that often showcase that monster have the "Pit Butcher".

I am going crazy here.

DId you try Pit Map?

I'm actually pretty surprised more people aren't enjoying this league. It's stupidly easy to make currency by buying coins and selling good prophecies, and the challenges aren't even challenging, just a few are grindy.

What I learned since open beta: whenever any "challenge" in PoE is related to RNG: don't even try, just collect chaos orbs and buy this from other players. Saves you a lot of frustration.
So I just bought the last prophecy (like anarchy IV or so) of those chains and that's it. Since I encountered only maybe 2 or 3 of the first part on my way to 90, it proves my strategy - again. Leveling feels so slow, that I just don't want to go beyond 90 in league and better lvl my main.

It was very annoying however, to have to do such prophecies that yield neither exp (low lvl areas) nor loot (low lvl areas, darn!) again and again to clean out those slots. Stopped bothering to get the 6link or unique chance proph. when I hit 90.

Most of the other challenges were pretty much doable. Liked those you can actively pursue e.g. with Zana mod (tormend spirit or shrines) or going to vaal areas. Or have a monstrous treasure proph active to get those strongboxes :D (still, bought this again).

My suggestion for next leagues: all MTX are available at 30 challenges (10,20,30 respectively), and doable in reasonable amount of time, like now. Make last 10 challenges ultra hard, for the ppl out there that need this to show off their e-peen in hideout (totem - grows larger, you know xDD).

Btw. that Pale Court fight was awesome. Maybe buying the keys again, just for the fun.

Oh yeah and for the sake of maths: I ran 458 maps and got about 70 map drops from bosses. Only 12(!!!) were higher than the map level.
THIS. SUCKS.
A hint for ppl stuck at T<10: buy a T 13 or 14 once. you can live for 10 or 15 maps from this then and play above T10. Then you need to buy next one. This game is pay-ingame-currency-to-win all day long.

Easy to do those challenges on SC, but extremly hard on HC..

I did. If I'm not mistaken the dog demons that spawn regularly there are the "Pit Butcher" type, which again, don't count for the "Pitbull Demon" kill. The only map I haven't tried with repeated regularity is Colloseum. Because I can't afford to buy a t15 over and over to kill a rare.

Or maybe this shit is just bugged for me. I wish I knew. But I know, for certain, I've run the Pit map and A4 merciless Daresso's Dream areas several times, killing rare dog demons in both, without the challenge completing. Leading me to the assumption of the naming problem between Demon/Butcher types.

done 28 so far, and I still dont care about them a single bit (all this purple crap makes me sick) same for the mtx's

Never gone purely after a challenge, they just happen.
