WHO the hell playtested Spears.. it took me SIX HOURS to get midway through ACT 2...

I couldnt take more for the time being. I tried to do trials as soon as I could but the end boss was so tanky it was undoable.
I left trials, thought ok I will just grind out some levels, get better gear.. but after getting to the towers part in ACT2 I needed to take a break and stop.

There is no way, NO WAY anybody playtested leveling part with Spears.. they do no damage with fresh gear even if its a good rolled spear.
There are only a couple of Spear passive points at the very right side of the passive tree and some wierd conditional projectile passives.. but spears are like 50\50.. they are and they arent projectiles.. its so ass.

Woke up, will try to play more.. maybe im just getting old and dont know how to play well.. maybe I need to try and kill the trial boss and get my first ascendancy points.. thats whats missing right?!

Trying out some Tornados right now but I feel they do tickle damage if they dont stay close to the enemy and with each cast I do they go like a fcking ROCKET SHIP.. like an F1 car.. away from me lol.. hit enemy 1 time and then they are gone offscreen forever! Cool.

Surely in the endgame it will become great!

To be fair feedback was similar in 0.1. I'm pretty sure that comfortable builds will be possible at end game, we just need to discover them. They might be aiming for zero to hero type of progression and I personally love it.

To do damage with huntress it requires chaining few attacks, Twisters actually can do insane damage but they need burning ground or any other element ground enhanced with the 3 taps of that Whirlpool skill.

These things are annoying to activate of course but we might get much faster at it in the endgame.

I started 0.1.0 with spark witchhunter and spent all my points to travel to northern part of the tree and still had less trouble than these spear players

so I don't think it's about discovering stuff

You did, just now.

You are the play tester.

Right, but sparks were op in any shape or form, so not really a fair comparison.

I played warrior in 0.1 and made it op eventually using HP + armor, so ofc I've had different experience here, it was considered worst class.

Have you considered the devs want it to take that long to get midway past act 2?

Also as another person noted. YOU ARE THE PLAY TESTER. YOU SIGNED UP TO PLAY THE BETA AND TEST THE GAME

just chill, its an early access
they will fix everything from time to time.
