Incursion Timer

two words: phase run. link it with inc duration, enhance and arcane surge. it'Ll solve your problems +an adrenaline flask but I'm hoping you already have that.

my arc trapper didnt have any movement skills besides phase run since I didnt have enough attack speed for shield charge, and I shit on incursions by just running, I Just needed to plan my route well.

and yes, you're allowed to have fun, but I should be rewarded for being better at the game than you, should I not?

if you're not good enough then do lower level incursions.

if the game doesnt put challenges in front of you that force you to be better, then you wont become better :P

I've honestly never tried phase run, I've never thought of it as a movement skill or seen anyone else mention it as an option. I don't see how constantly stopping to cast a mini-quicksilver would help much, but I might give it a try later.

I don't have a problem with the idea of getting better rewards for better skill or effectiveness. Like I said Breach is a good example of how to do a timed event. The issue is the incursion timer can halt basic progression of the temple, and not being able to link rooms or get to rewards at all is just unacceptable. In any case being able to clear it faster is it's own reward, if the timer was removed and you still clear the whole thing in 10-20 seconds while it takes me a minute, you are getting those rewards three times as fast as me. That's how mapping works as is anyway, I play my bad builds and take forever to clear maps and die a few times, more skilled players are like clearing a map every minute or whatever ridiculousness is normal these days. Point is I get it done, get my rewards and have fun. I can't do that with incursions.

As for lower level incursions, they are usually harder to clear in time because of lower enemy density. This is amplified in the mid game where I spend a lot of my playtime, mob density is crap, there's very little that can be done to stall the timer.

I don't play to get better, I play to have fun. I know how to build a "meta" character and breeze through content, I don't really enjoy that. I like creating my own builds based on skill and passive combos that I find interesting, I know this handicaps me and I further handicap myself by only playing SSF. If anything I feel that's a more effective way of "getting better" at the game than just copying a boring meta build and following it.

they halved the cast speed of it in the new patch, it's basically nonexistant now, and it basically doubles your movespeed, it's really good now. trust me.

you can also go with qotf if your build is on the right side of the tree

lol doubt it x'D unless u make a build designed just for that or just a lame meta build

Dude i whipped up 2 meme builds while leveling. No PoB or anything. Just whip them up as i go. Still i have beign full clearing them with 20sec left for ages, Im on T10 maps now and still have no problem clearing and killing the architect (unless im playing on my smartphone). So maby you just need more dps/aoe and maby a movement skill.
Anyway they are easy peazy after few acts if you got any idea what you are doing.

Stop the thread! Here is some great instructive text everyone! Perhaps a bit masturbatory as well, but, hey, he can do it so if you cannot, then you = bad.

Simple! Concise! Amazing!

Never claimed that someone is bad for not managing what i do. Just saying that propably hes doing something wrong or just needs more dps or a better movement skill or something. Also he claimed "lol doubt it x'D unless u make a build designed just for that or just a lame meta build" and i was just disbuting that.
I have cwc-incinerate-discharger elementalist and cwc-incinerate-bodyswap juggernaut. Pretty fucken far from meta or build planned around incursions. Actually that bodyswap build sucks donkeydong right now but i can still clear incursions with time left with couple of vaal skills to help.

So anyway nice sarcasm but stupid and ineffective.

As you can see many people cannot meet the timer requirements. So it's not pointless.

So the point is to specifically stop some people from enjoying the event but not others. Ok. That's great.

here's a list of skills that can definitely clear incursion fine with the right build

...

maybe the problem isnt wwith the narrow array of builds, you just suck

DPS isn't even the main factor in clearing them. It's mobility. I have made 3 characters this league, two of them suck at incursions even though they have the DPS to one shot most packs. They use wands though, and have crap movement skills and minimal move speed (just boots and flasks). My third character is a Raider with over +100% move speed, lowest DPS of my characters but easiest to clear incursions with.

So what if I suck? I'm not allowed to have fun in the game because I'm a bad player that doesn't want to spam movement skills like a crackhead on every character I make?

If you suck and not build correctly for the content you want to do you should indeed not get to enjoy it. How is that strange to you man? Do you live on welfare or something and have everything handed down to you in live with no effort?

Common sense and thinking before you type something will take you a long way.
