General Discussion - Tell me why do i keep playing this game - Forum

Tell me why do i keep playing this game I don't understand it myself. I am Not a masochist. I do Not enjoy this. So why do i keep playing it? I mean obviously in the last 10 years i had enjoyed the game at some point. But it was a different game. This, this is something else entirely. t14 map boss, vs me 70chaos res, ~18k armor, ~4.2k hp I didnt stand a chance at all. Last night it was same thing but with Residence trapper boss. Entire screen of fire and lightning traps. One shot dead and i was on other side of the room. Couldn't even see the boss, but hey, he sees me and he one shots me. https://youtu.be/x3uIJ2Pavuo Last edited by IceLancerSR on Dec 14, 2023, 4:35:11 PM Last bumped on Dec 20, 2023, 8:20:10 AM	Posted by IceLancerSR on Dec 14, 2023, 4:34:04 PM Quote this Post
Some combination of the arsonists grip which is big extra fire from phys, the ek and whatever the map mods are that you didn't show. We tested it extensively	Posted by Icholas on Dec 14, 2023, 4:48:59 PM Quote this Post

Secondly, you don't have spell suppression at 100%. Life regeneration could also be higher than 271 Now if you get a big fire shot, say goodbye Hmmm or you need to fix it or get used to dying and, like many players in path of exile, invest as much as possible in dmg	Posted by mentos1308 on Dec 14, 2023, 7:16:38 PM Quote this Post
So there are mobs you can't kill. THE TRAGEDY! But seriously, just unlucky combo of mods. Just replay the map.	Posted by Beglets on Dec 14, 2023, 7:32:22 PM Quote this Post

As I wrote earlier, he would have to fix these things Or don't worry about death and invest as much as possible in dmg to kill faster...

He will kill that boss no problem when he plays that map again. He's just upset he spent 6 portals and still couldn't kill the mob.	Posted by Beglets on Dec 14, 2023, 8:06:32 PM Quote this Post

Typical casual response from you, if he doesn't want this to happen again in the future, he has to do what I wrote about. The game will be much more enjoyable for him	Posted by mentos1308 on Dec 14, 2023, 8:15:19 PM Quote this Post
I used to think like that as well, defense = resistance + armour + life Truth is that only count as the base line	Posted by LionInAFlask on Dec 14, 2023, 9:58:25 PM Quote this Post
