Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support DONE!!!!!

I just want to say, that lab is still awesome, as it's always been. Also I enjoy the repeated QQ from a few people, kinda funny. Take care!

We too find posts devoid of substance yet complaining about so-called QQ to be kinda funny! Thanks for posting, Mischief67, and know that you are not alone in this thread.

i think i was lvl 90 or 91 when i finally found the last trial for eternal lab last league. i wanted to try to get them on my own.

this league i got them fast in global 820. thanks to all the nice people sharing solved trials.

lab is alright with the rework they did. i still hate it when i dc or crash. i think players should only have to restart if they die. not dc or crash. that's just unfair.

While the first two labyrinths have been significantly improved, the last two labs and the endgame trials are still just as boring, tedious, irritating, and unfun.

Ampdecay, I've added a "&" to your name in the account name list meaning that it's now officially recorded that you "still hate doing lab" even after GGG cut way back on the loathsome lab content required in release 3.0.

The only suggestion for improvement I got is the complete removal of golden key rooms. Uber golden keys should work like merc does, having the key in the same room as the door.

I lied, I have other ideas for improvement as well. I just find the likeliness of any of those being ever implemented less than the chance of getting married with Donald Trump. Golden key room removal actually has an extremely slight chance of happening IMO.

The first two labyrinths have not been improved, they have been nerfed and ruined and they re now a complete joke.
I hope uber lab at least will stay interesting and rewarding and FUN as it is.

Make the lab great again.

Another unhappy player.

What I see as bad about the lab is as follows

1. Depending on the build, getting thru the traps can be a very different experience.
eg. A Life Generation Tank has no problems at all. Whereas a No Gen/VP build has no chance.
Yeah, I know, change your build for the lab. Why should I have to be unfairly made to spend regrets etc.

2. Trials. Why do we still need trials? They say it is to introduce a player to the mechanics etc. In every new league we have to "be introduced" again! If this is so, then they should make getting the Scion the same. That is, in every new league you have to get her again in Act 4. That would never happen, I suggest making it so that once a player has done the trials, that player (or their account) would never have to complete them in any future leagues.

Recently, I finally completed my Uber Trials in Bestiary solo. It was hard. One char, a Jugg, had little problem getting thru. Died a few times at level 87. Was not happy about that. Then a few days after that, I came across the burning trial in a map with my summoner. F**k me, could not get thru it, died about 8 times before changing chars to my jug. All this time I was monitoring global 820. "Cheaters" sharing "unlocked" trials. Is this what we really want to happen in the game? You have got to feel for the SSFers. I know, I had the option to use global 820 to fast track the trials. I just wonder how these players, who use the trial sharing system, would feel about the trials if they could not share and were forced to do the trails solo. I feel they too should have to grind maps and pray that a trial appears in their map, and this might not happen until your char is in the nineties.
Maybe then the くそたれ/fanboys would join this thread against the lab or at least the uber trials.

Long time player here.

I used to despise the lab. Mouth-frothingly so.

I also found over time it doesn't necessarily grow on you as much as a callous builds and it just becomes part of the background noise of the game.

I certainly do not look forward to it. But then again I don't dread it either.

Experience and wisdom do go a long way, however. Intrinsically I understand the power level of my characters better, and can generally judge when they will be able to do a specific level of the lab. Uber can be a shot in the dark, and some characters simply cannot do it alone (I am terrible at building anything not using bulk life/armor as defense). You just have to face that as a fact.

The first two labs have, indeed, been gutted. This was the bone thrown to the most casual of players, so that anyone could access at least a percentage of the power build of the Ascendancies.

I would also agree that Uber lab should never be touched, and I still feel a sense of accomplishment every time I complete it.

The map trials, however.....? Annoying AF.

Agreed, lab is too easy nowadays. They should un-nerf Normal and Cruel ones.
