New char, new lab thread

It used to be that is what you would do. To be fair, GGG should have mega threads devoted to updates like the lab that people can reply with their feedback. Without those present like other forums I have used in the past for other games though, people find that they are free to post the same shit over and over and over in new threads. There is even 2 other threads related to the lab right now on the same page...

I'm not particularly bitching about people complaining about the lab and didn't bother posting in an old thread. I am annoyed though how many lab complainers are unwilling to debate about the lab at all. Most haters have a "my way or get the fuck out of here mentality." especially when they start their thread with no suggestions at all apart from "fix this shit."


Just FYI, there are multiple shitty aspects of the lab, not all should be lumped into a single thread. Trap frogger game play, boss being overtuned, some builds do it in <3 min while some take over 10, the energy shield problem, the fact that you have to do it to get full character development, the lab completely ignoring the tree and giving a big FU to the whole make your build how you like to play the game aspect, etc, etc, etc, etc... Tossing all in 1 single thread is a horrible suggestion.

About the "my way" mentality, the lab is shit, I don't enjoy shit, I don't want to support shit. That is a 'my way' mentality as you put it. Should someone wanting to take money not want to hear that? Or just wonder why people are dropping and giving them less money? Is it 'my way', yes it is. But if I was losing money, I'd want to hear people's 'my way' feedback. Besides, when does the feedback forum have qualifications as to what someone's feedback is? This isn't a logical and philosophical forum, you can go elsewhere for that. This is for feedback, opinions, expressions, suggestions, etc.


What I am always saying about these kind of complaints though: GGG obviously wants the lab to remain and the ascendancy points to remain behind it and have some challenge to it. Yes it is shitty that Juggernauts and the like can blitz through this stuff like no tomorrow, but where many complainers want the lab to just be easier to survive or not an issue at all, I see that juggernauts need to be slowed down and everybody has the same pace to get through it.

I like the game style of the lab and the slow down it causes and the new boss video suggests they are going to be adding in more means of "this game isn't just about dps and having 100k damage mitigation, you actually have to think to survive this boss battle" that I have no complaints towards. There will always be a build type that is able to run lab easiest, with es based obviously having the hardest time, but that doesn't stop you from running the lab once and getting your points each difficulty, if you know what you are doing.

Why do people think juggernauts are the only build that cheeses the lab? My elementalist just runs through traps and has no worries at all about the boss. This guy is also not a juggernaut --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YH2hpP5R8L8 There are plenty of other builds that just mindlessly leap, blink, warp through all of the frogger trap gameplay. If it actually slows you down, then you might rethink your setup, heh.

I'm glad there's content you like. That's the whole point of playing a game. The shitty lab to many is the opposite of the point of playing a game. It is just shitty content for an ACTION RPG, as they label themselves. ACTION doesn't mean sitting there for 8 seconds waiting for the floor to stop being red. It would be fine if it was just a freak sideshow that it is, but they put core ARPG character development behind it. That is what makes people actually complain instead of simply IGNORING it and going on about their PoE lives. Hence, all the thread posts. (Just so many poor decisions with the lab.)

Having to bribe people with big rewards just shows how shitty the content is. People (usually) don't play games to feel like they are working and doing something they don't enjoy doing. Unless your involved in RMT, then it is actually your work. Is that the real purpose of the lab?

Putting character development behind the lab for everybody is such a failure.

Wow, I had not read so much BS in a while I think.

Remove all the carrots of PoE, let's see how many still play the game in couple of weeks.

So Atziri and uber Atziri are shitty too because they have good rewards? Which part of this game exactly isn't about getting rewards? You'd be happy if no loot dropped anywhere? The entire game was an Untainted Paradise?

just so

And GGG just recently locked a bunch of lab complaining threads asking them to stop making new threads about the same topic, particularly ones that had nothing new to add and just wanted to complain once again.


And you're bitching because somebody didn't go back and look at the history of the feedback forum in order to post their own damn feedback? lol


This threads maker wouldn't have to, this is his 4th laby hate feedback thread by my count. His last one was locked and this one pretty much saying the same thing. Spam is spam. :)
Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you.
lab haters need be more creative

so u get lv 40 in one or two hours and do lab in 10 min or less

Quote maneuvering is a pain in the ass. I feel you.

So much drama over 10 min of content just shows how shitty the lab is, does it not?

If they put an enchant as a reward for figuring out how to do this, would he learn?
