Ritual and the explosive Bubbles. I think it is a bad design with a bad visual clarity.

Hi,
I write a post on poe/reddit about this few days ago and the comments speak for its own.
Maybe GGG use this Feedback to make something better about that.

I like to Play Ritual very well but wtf decide to add this explosive Bubbles to a content with absolut heavy no visual clarity.

If you juice Ritual with a little more Monsters you dont can see the 1000 Bubbles anymore.

This is bad and ugly design i think. Why is there no limitation for maximum Bubbles???
Why the Bubbles ar not better visual idenfiy like in pic 2 ???

Also the Bubbles are to often in the Ritual i think. It feels like 2/3 Rituals.

I dont like this and i think it kills the gameplay for Ritual.

Past in Delirium League there was the same thing with the explosive red bubbles and it was fixed.

Yeah ever since they added all the affliction mobs that are rippy af along with the 50 on-death effects and screen-wide purple stuff ritual has become cringe to run. Those orbs that chase you are probably the most annoying thing out of it all.

And this is why I'm just gonna block ritual every league from now on until changes are made, I used to have fun farming it and getting a few divs or maybe a super rare divination card from it but now it's impossible to enjoy this mechanic the way it currently is.

Don't play a glass cannon or dodge the exploding orbs, both does work fine honestly.
Ritual really did need some love and adding affliction mobs to it wasn't just a good fit with the theme but also a nice refreshing balance to the outdated mechanic.

What?

Ritual only got worse and more annoying lol, also "just dodge the balls" isn't a solution, all these spells and effects are waaaaaayy too much when you're in a circle(sometimes smaller than that if its in a corner) plus whatever spinning lasers are from the ritual itself. Rituals already have built-in mechanics, it did not need more mechanics. This is just mechanic bloat, nothing else.

All those orbs CONSTANTLY chasing you nonstop during the ritual when you can't see anything and after it when you're trying to just loot is just bad and annoying.


It also makes like no sense why they would even add affliction mobs and spells to ritual when Affliction already exists as a random spawn in t16s, like why?? Ritual is its own thing, just revert all the changes made to it this patch. It was fine exactly the way it was before. Archnemesis is already annoying enough in that league mechanic, we didn't need 20 more things on top of it.
