Concerning two of the challenges I have a question for each.
On the "Reach level 65" challenge do you have to stay alive until 65 in the Rampage league for it to count? In other words can you not die until after reaching level 65 even in the soft-core league? On the "Own these Unique Items", after acquiring all 44 items at the same time can you trade them to another player for them to get the achievement or must a player have all 44 items in inventory upon completion of the leagues? |

" I'm also not a huge fan of the tentacle wings. I was just trying to think of an example that looks roughly decent on all classes. I think my point still stands about this micro looking absolutely stupid on a mara |

" Yup, if only the requirement was 4 challenges. I don't see myself being able to Kill Atziri, own those 44 uniques or defeat the Beyond bosses ever. I don't know how long it'll take to get the masters to level 8, and I really don't want to grind out 64 levels with each of the classes. Now if I can do that challenge with 7 Witches instead, I might acquiesce. |

Disappointing that the challenges are mostly grinding/trading/hoarding etc related with very little skill involved. Challenges and achievements that arent challenges or achievements have become a bad habit in the industry.
A bit strange to see so much flak for the mtxs though. They look average or somewhat out of place at worst to me. " Perhaps the plateau boss is finally receiving a long-overdue power-up. " The unofficial item-to-skin mtx thread: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/989281 IGN: KoTao

" You can die as much as you want in Rampage. You must have all 44 in your stash/on characters when the league ends. Support a free Hong Kong.

" I would get all 65s before Ripping any just to make sure, at least it says that if they RIP after you already have the achievement, the achievment stays. I believe one could lend items in the past but this time there is a note there saying it will uncomplete if you dont have them anymore. Honestly I think its a bad decision, what if I have one valuable unique on my character and he rips in one of the last days of the league and I dont have enough money to buy another one? I dont like this, If I were in a situation where I had all of them I wouldnt play with say my char holding a bino due to fear of RIPing, not happy with this. EDIT: nvm didnt see it was about rampage. but well it applies to just beyond I guess (on deaths) Oblivious Last edited by Disrupted#3096 on Aug 19, 2014, 10:59:03 AM

" also, i always want a spikey armor effect on the back of my gear, to go with the spikey mohawk hat thing. and a skeleton dog pet with an animation where he still trys to bite the flees on his arse, and a hyena pet would be awesome, perhaps he laughs at monsters :P . i agree with those who have said that 5 challenges are out of reach to "casuals" --including those of us who play 20-30-40 hours a week, but still consider ourselves casual. this game has a learning curve, and 8 months in, i've kinda figured out what a viable build is, but not an endgame viable. these things take time. i dont want to play 7 characters to level 65. i'd rather work 1-3 characters and get as far into maps as i can. i dont expect to be meeting atziri for at least another league or two. etc etc. as for the rewards, a credit to spend on what you want would be of more value to me, but since im not going try for five, my opinion may not really matter on this point. +1 to something like a skull necklace or a belt of arms, ala kali. that would be an awesome challenge reward! especially if you have to earn it. (just make sure its accessible to my personal play style :P hehehe jk). as to the roman thing, meh. the cultures preceding rome were hella interesting, steal a little something from minoan crete :P ... and im really hoping for some sort of katana/disho/samari type skill gem for the dual wielding, since our weapon master moves his blades almost like numchucks in his animation, perhaps you'll give us a little something to do that also? make it deadly!! ;) fingers crossed. all to say, +1 very exciting expansion. +1 to keeping it nightmareish, less roman blingy things, less wings and shiny things, +1 more blood, murder, bones, horns, and harshly themed things. lethal steel and iron with rust rather than (or at least in addition to) silver and gold. I am the stone that the builder refused.

If you do, post some pictures. It'd be cool to see you guys happy, you all deserved it for all your hard work. :) |
