Quick toughts about the Temple of Atzoatl

While there are some interesting concepts - I was surprised to find it less appealing in beastiary.

In Beastiary you could at least wait to decide when to utilize beats for recipes.

In Incursions you might unlock a corruption attempt but have nothing worthwhile at the time, but the rng factor means you don't know the next time you'd be able to attempt said corruption when you find an item worthy.

Love it. But wondering why they didn't go with some Snake God rather than a Roomba.

Its value is that its a free map really once you get to maps, the extra couple of rooms you get access to once you hit maps actually decrease the chances of getting useful level 3 rooms by a meaningful % which doesn't feel right.

Couple of problems really that i think they should have addressed by now

Last gasp mobs cause a massive lag spike when they die (probably not incursion related but still)

There is no point in buffing the roomba, which makes the corresponding rooms pretty pointless. Especially as GGG refuse to learn that blue crafting bases are next to worthless, you have to augment then regal useful mods to even get started which automatically means your talking like 1/100 already (or worse).

Apart from that the temples been pretty solid, much like beastiary there are some obvious things that would benefit the league as a whole hopefully they do them.

The temple is more than just a free map. It's a free, well rolled, Carto Box.

My thoughts FWIW.

On the whole, I'm liking this league pretty well. I do agree that the Omnitect base is too easy. I've been having an easy time with it, but I thought it was just because of my build, which has been one-shotting most mobs. Interesting to hear that others are having the same experience.

My last temple Omnitect was finally a real fight, and a big reason was the room upgrades I had done in pursuit of the challenge list. I think he dropped a couple more of the incursion special items that run, but they weren't that great, pretty sure I traded the items away. If not for the league challenges, there doesn't seem to be any motivation for me to do the upgrades.

The thing about the incursions and temple I have been enjoying is the boost during levelling. Instead of having to farm a zone to prep for maps, I was able to go directly in, even though it did make me really overpowered for the content. I like te challenge level of the incursions. Most of the time I have time left over, but sometimes, I really have trouble, and either die or almost die. But I think the times that I fail make the successes more satisfying.

As far as as the temple reset, I'd have to think about a little. So far, regardless of the initial layout, I've been satisfied with the result after the 11 incursions even when I thought the layout was hopeless when I started, and I've mostly managed to open all the rooms. What about the layouts has been bothering everyone?

I've had some bad temples, but it wouldn't make the good temples good if I could just dumpster the bad ones.

I like the concept despite the fact that i hate timers but since i have gotten nothing but some maps out of the temple i might as well have been playing std.

90% of the temple layouts are trash. Unless I'm doing high level maps I usually just open and close it. Incursions are fun though, temple boring.

Quite happy with the temple so far.

I sold 2 x 21/20 Vaal arc's. I bricked another 4 and a blade vortex. Will keep at it. it's fun.

I also got this done myself(turned another 4 onto 3x white sockets):



Next on the corruption sacrificial altar will be a pair of:



The rooms are very rewarding. The map one is worth it even if that was the only room you get to 3 after all incursions. The vault one gave me 2 exalted now and several divines. I also got 2 annulments.

OH I got this done yesterday after getting the base and Vial in the same run:



Temple is very rewarding. You just need to go at it constantly. Much less RNG than the rest of the game.
