That titan build i described didn't cost me much when it comes to defenses, rare shield was 60ex, life/attribute morior was 1 div, rest of gear are generic rares.
This has to be a joke at this point...
Your shield alone costs 3x what I invested in my whole character, I have no mod restrictions on my waystones and I can probably play way riskier and much faster. Not to mention your 1 divine body armor and your "generic" rares that probably cost 10+ exalts each.
And coming back to the actual discussion in the post: this game has severe balancing issues regarding build diversity and investing in defenses. Allowing only 1 portal only makes it worse, not better. You're a living example of that and ironically your testimony only disproves yourself.
I see you trying to argue and all I can think of is the Invincible meme: "look at what they need to mimic a fraction of our power"
Bro I don't know what tier of maps you are currently running but if you are anywhere at least or around T8 and you have not invested more than 20ex total on your character, that is clearly the reason why you die a lot.
You've got to find some ways to make currency, even during progression and invest it into your build.
You are just not going to get anywhere near the later tiers of maps while rocking basically campain trash (no offense)
With or without 6 portals.

Nice way to chime in mid-discussion without knowing the context.
I've invested 20-25 exalts on my build: 5ex on my weapon, around 3-5ex on other gear pieces. Helmet, Gloves and Amulet were what I had dropped so far in the campaign or while mapping.
I didn't have capped resists, had 10% chaos resist, less than 3k HP + ES, less than 70% evasion with Acrobatics.
I went as far as to run 3-4 rare corrupted T15 maps, fully modded, on irradiated maps with breach/corruption/bosses with very little effort.
After that I stopped playing. This had proven to me that this was just PoE 1 2.0 and wasn't meaningfully challenging to me. It was just the same artificial time-killer GGG created when they started changing too much of PoE.
So no, I was not dying. Quite the contrary.
My only personal issue with 1-death maps were pinnacle bosses, and not because I imagined they'd be hard, but because having a single death would 100% force people to learn about the fight outside of the game instead of trying in-game. GGG already addressed that.
But because I didn't face issues with the current system, it doesn't mean I'm blind to the fact it's dumb for the majority of the casual playerbase, nor I'm stupid enough to believe it has no impact in build diversity and players' freedom of choice.
And let me quote what I said in another post:
"
By the way, GGG is very aware of this fact and they deliberately don't do it the right way.
Their revenue mainly comes from that exact situation: every new league they release broken builds and nerf the previous ones to the ground.
That cycle is what attracts gullible players that end up buying MTX and supporter packs. You can check that cycle in action here: https://steamdb.info/app/238960/charts/#3y
And they've already stated, officially, that the current endgame is working how they intended and the issue is the transition between a slower campaign and zoom zoom maps.
So don't expect PoE 2 to change anything. Unless they change their stance, it will be a cycle of broken builds in new leagues and nerfing the previous builds to oblivion.
So, despite my blind faith, I have very little actual hope GGG will change anything meaningful from PoE 1

Joke is that you consider 60ex a high investment.
Run maps for 3 days, 3h each day, you will have way more.
Shield i bought for 60ex is extremely good, meaning that i would be just fine with much cheaper one. I one that not cry on forums after every death. You do.

What are you? 14? You come back from school every day, food on the table, house clean, kiss from mommy/daddy and only play PoE?
Now I understand why you have the attention span and reading comprehension of a kid.
You LITERALLY quoted me saying I don't die to say I cry about dying and you completely missed the point I'm defending here.

nitefox1337#3569 a écrit :
XP Loss on Char Death is a go to mechanic from incompetant devs.
Remove XP Loss, and the End Game becomes extremely boring. Its just maps that drop maps to farm maps, with a boss here and there.
Thats why they cant remove it.
This is not Lost Ark where there are so many things to do they dont give a fck about your XP or Level.
In PoE the only End Game gameplay is killing monsters. Thats it. They have to cover that somehow and they chose the most lame way.
Game isn't even released, yet you compare to game that was released years ago. Obviously it doesn't have as much content yet.

Lack of content isn't an excuse to implement time wasting mechanics, and considering even at EA it has more content, even if it's recycled ones, than most finished games, i'd say it's high past the time to keep talking out of both ends.

Running maps for 3 days at 3h a day only gives you 60+ ex if using high rarity, which is only an option with AOE screen clear builds and you still need to walk on eggshells if you aren't heavily invested in es. As a witch hunter, this just doesn't work. I had to ditch most my rarity to bring down the 1 shots

6 portals make sense. XP penalty does not, at least until you get to high tier waystones. Anything above level 85 is grind for prestige - can make it hard as people who go there want it. I'd remove death xp penalty for anyone below lvl 80.
