I don't like it either, but normal, cruel and merc lab is actually doable for everyone also on Hardcore (for traps and Izaro damage you can adapt your char -basalt/granite flasks, extra movement skill, probably Leo shield enchant on weapon swap slot with reduced damage taken from damage over time, using an enduring cry gem if you didnt, use a high level stone golem for extra lifereg, even change something on skilltree, check daily phases on poe.lab and look them up in the wiki to know how to disable all buffs Izaro can get, etc)
What I do not like is uber lab trials, and the uber lab trap gauntlets and then the Izaro damage output. If I doubt my char is capable of doing it (I only play HC leagues) I will just buy a run (trade 820 or global 820 channels or noticeboards in town) or ask a friend to do it with me/kill Izaro for me. |

The game needs more Labyrinth mechanics, not less. Many more enemy skills, area of effects and maps should have % health/es damage tied to it so you can't simply outgear content. The Labyrinth is the best thing GGG has ever put out.

" Yep. Meybe If traps were not only in labirynth but also in core game, less people would cry about how hard lab is... |

" what part of No don't you understand? |

You're right, OP. The lab & trials was a giant design blunder. GGG knows it, but they've sunk so much into creating it all that blind pride won't allow them to change it.
Although shortening it might help with the boring monotony of it, it can't 'fix' it. For me it turned a game worth paying for often into a freebie. No biggie for GGG. Fortunately or them it seems the ones who love it the most have extra deep pockets! |

Well I have to preface this with the stipulation that I only started PoE in January of this year, so take this with a grain of salt:
I kinda like the Lab :D With 3.0 on the horizon, I could see a realignment of how Ascendancy points are acquired, especially considering that Act III won't have the same sense of urgency that the plot applies to if (though the meta may not), seeing how we will have 10 Acts rather than 4, and the removal of Cruel and Merciless. However, I'd be sad to see the Lab disappear completely. |

how about we just do the lab once....
I dont see any any key!
