Can Labyrinth be reworked so it's not game endingly bad?

I agree. The lab is fine as it is now.

Word of advise that I am sure a lot of the veterans players will agree: IT takes time to become good at the lab.


I don't agree. Difficulty has never - and will never - be the problem with lab. Uninspiring gameplay will always be uninspiring, no matter how easy/hard/long/short/rewarding/unrewarding they'll make it. I'm not 'against' the lab. By all means, people enjoying it should be allowed to run it, even though I seriously doubt that 'most' people enjoy RUNNING the lab, as much as they enjoy the last room.

I just don't see the point of forcing us through 18(?) trials and 4 labs each freakin' league. It doesn't matter if it's short or easy. It's boring, uninspiring gameplay.
Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.
After masters rework, this is the next thing that needs to go. Dreadfull, dull, repetive content.

This.

I can do Lab fine. I have 3 chars über ascendeed this league so far.
It doesn't even take all that long.

I still don't enjoy a second of it and wish there was an alternative way to get the non-tradeable rewards of the Lab i.e. the ascendancy points.
Online delenda est:
When the lifecycle of PoE will draw to an end many years from now,
there needs to be a final patch making it available offline.

I see no problem with allowing you guys to skip the lab and get the points just because you don't like it, as long as the same applies to everyone else in every other part of the game people don't like.

What's good for the goose, is good for the gander. Get it applied across the board, and you got my vote.

There is this misconception that only people who cant do it hate it. No, people who can do it fine hate it too for being a sore spot on an otherwise great game.

Lab makes you fucking OP you should WORK for it not this FREE pass shit.

Labyrinth is a masterpiece and the only change it requires is reverting shortened normal/cruel/merciless layouts back to their original sizes. GGG once already made bad decision to nerf lab because of nooby whiners, hope GGG learned their lesson to ignore whine from noobs.

If you have issues with lab - git gud.

Seriously don't think you need to cast that spell. I think Turtledove has enough AoE to identify lab threads a mile away.


No but I really enjoy the fmv cutscene. :)


A rather large turtle dove burst on the scene cooing loudly, everyone pauses to look and the bird coughs once then falls over dead.
Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all! GGG will implement a different method for ascension in PoE2. Retired!
We need to have to work for our ascendancy points. But lab need not be the only method of getting them.
We're all in this leaky boat together, people.
