The Harbinger League Challenges and Rewards

Will definitely go for 12 and 24. Will likely try to get 36 as well, but I'm not sure if I can get it done.

For Legacy league, thanks for the extension and help from global 820, I got 36, and I really want the portal effect.

I'd say I like the character effect, just don't know if I have enough time for it. But by aiming at 36, there is a sense of pushing the limit and changing the play style for me, maybe because I'm more of a casual player.

Looks great to me. Only 4 more days!

Ooo and it looks like you've really settled into your final form for league challenges: "36 is attainable for most anyone who tries for it, 40 for the prestige".

Except that's bollocks. There's only a remote chance I'll get 36 and I'll play hundreds of hours.

Mmmm...nah. I'm calling bollocks on you.

21 - Will get without trying
5 - Have to try, but it's trivial (currency from vendor, Pale Council, Breachlord)
4 - Have to try, but it's easy (Kill Vaal Side area bosses)
6 - Have to try, just takes patience (Complete these encounters III, Fully upgrade your h/o, twinned, 8 props, 1337, pantheon powers)

That's my breakdown of the first listed 36. Playing 2 hrs a day for 90 days, which ones do you not see yourself getting? You can get 36 easier than ever this league, and without 820 to boot.

I dont see myself completing 14 of the last 16 on my own, Leveling Gem to 20 and reaching lv 90 are the 2 exceptions. The only reason I got 36 in Legacy is because I bought like the last 10. I dont want to do that again.

Character effect looks nice! Sadly the "crown" more or less looks like the char effect....

So it is Act 9: The Unholy Trio...

we will see....

Do not be sad, think about the 5 extra act, new boss, new mob, new items, the pantheon that will change the way we play.
The 3.0 with these new gems, and the Harbinger league adds a lot of other novelty.
The challenge league is just the cherry on the cake!

What

So you do the new acts once then back to maps (cool content bro)
People do bosses? (i do but just saying ;p)
New mobs? who cares really
New items? we would have had new items anyways and most will suck
The god system looks like junk to me

You don't need to be a graphic designer to know what works visually, these are the worst rewards since rewards started.

The eyes are recolored versions of the current fiery eyes, too small and subtle to even see; the other two don't make any thematic, tonal or visual sense with anything in POE. The idea of Harbinger league doesn't even have a concrete image or theme at all unlike Perandus, Breach or many of the others.

GGG needs to redesign all of them, practically unlikely in 4 days, or scrap them all and release three all new, polished rewards when the league ends.

So many complaining about these effects... keep in mind these may look awesome when combined with the harbinger supporter packs!

Personally I really like the colors(awesome blue), especially the eyes. I do not think they should change these mtx rewards, or switch them around. Maybe add something small(harbinger footprints) to the 36 challenge reward as so many complain about it.

However, maybe GGG made these rewards non-optimal on purpose. To give players time to adapt to the 3.0.0. changes without losing out on great mtx effects.

PS: These challenges most definately do not seem easy to me! Will still be going for 36 though, if I can make it.
PSS: Can't wait for the actual patch notes, so I can decide what to play.

Dear GGG , i hope you fraken make the harbingers part of the core game, there is no point to play the league except for those eyes microtransaction and those orb shards, and unique items, which most players won't ever see since it's a 3 month league.

Perhaps the first league were I won't care about even one of the mtx's.

I wonder if we'll ever get rewards as good as Talisman league again.

Edit you know what, this might be the first time I can consider playing Standard 3.0.0 instead of the league version.
