POE2 Ruthless Mode PLEASE!

What would you even put in Ruthless when the game already has 1 life , 1 map mode.

sure they could disable gold , and make items break after some use .
and remove flasks ?

maybe a timer for each zone on screen if you fail you die?

i dont mind making more modes , when they dont affect me ,
but what do you want them to do , they already take everything away from you,
what is there to take away?

My god man - my feeling exactly. ++++++1.
Even tho we know the likelyhood of this is near 0.

First off, I just want to say I have no intention of showing off or trying to flex here. No one knows me, and I’m just a casual player—definitely not as skilled as many of you. That said, I really enjoy Ruthless mode in POE1 because of the challenge it offers, and I’m disappointed to see that POE2 seems to be getting easier and easier with every update.

I'm with you brother. But the way to do it is to simply implement customizable private leagues (something that should also be done in poe1... the private league modifiers aren't customizable enough).

Then you can customize a private league with mods not only to make mobs harder (+10-20% life/damage, etc.) but also levers to tweak % of loot drop, % of gem drop, etc. Then GGG can also get revenue off of this which would make it viable for them to implement it.

I would rather have them keep retarded shit in PoE1 and move in a completely different direction for PoE2, if PoE1 players don't like that - fuck them. They still have their game.

Hi Sirius, you got it wrong or maybe you're not aware of what is Ruthless.

It is not about difference between SSF and Trade League, or Regular and Hardcore. I need Ruthless + SSF + Hardcore if possible, like POE1 :)

Hcssf in poe2 is close enough to ruthless in poe1. You're just trying to post on here to let everyone know how superior you are for playing ruthless. This is how ruthless players are.

You guys are the equivalent of "cross-fit athletes" in the exercise world.

Their unrelatable because normal people value and respect their time and want to have a fun experience because they know it's just a game and it means nothing outside virtual reality in the real world. They also have bills, family, kids, etc to invest in so that takes away from the investment of gaming or playing PoE-2.

Their mentality to play a dog shit version of the game does not impress me. I think they have mental illness or brain damage honestly.

They should just go play a modded version of the game solo at this point and just run their own server to play it on.

for some sc trade is this exact "version" of the game you speak of. Also, usually it's the sc trade players with their delusion of becoming rich/Wealthy that needs to be reminded the most that it is just a game and means nothing outside of virtual reality.

First and foremost, I’m not asking for the game itself to become Ruthless. My suggestion is simply to add Ruthless mode as an optional gameplay mode for those who want a more challenging experience. It’s about offering more choices to players, not taking anything away from anyone.

With the recent updates making the game easier, it feels like POE2 is drifting further away from the experience that appeals to Ruthless players. This is not an opinion—it’s a fact.

Please continue making things easier for those who find that fun—that’s why many games have difficulty options like Easy, Normal, and Hard. But alongside these updates, I urge GGG not to forget about the players who enjoy a true Hard mode.

The solution is simple: if the game is moving toward being more accessible, also give players the option to choose a harder, more punishing experience like Ruthless mode. They made it before, do it again here. Is not a crazy request. :)

Best!

Hope to see it one day, but likely not happen any time soon

Curious to see the level/gear of the op's character in ssf.

Sctrade is always a degenerate disaster. That will never change. If they make the game tedius enough to make ruthless players happy in sctrade nobody will play the game.

wtf is ruthless mode? can you define this for me?
