[Suggestion] New Gamemode "Hardcore Lite" (Gear & Gold Wipe)

Many players like the adrenaline of Hardcore but are deterred of losing hundreds of hours of progress due to a lag spike or mistake. This proposal suggests a middle ground: a new gamemode "Hardcore Lite" that maintains the high stakes of losing wealth and power but respects your time investment.

In Hardcore Lite, when your character dies:

​* Gear Wipe: All equipped items are destroyed.

​* Gold Lost: All gold carried by your character is lost.

* Inventory Purge: All items in character’s inventory vanishes.

* Stash Safe: Your stash remains untouched, making "backup gear sets" a valid strategy.

​* Character Survives: Your character remains alive at their current level and returns to town.

Maybe a streamer can push this idea for a Private League event next season and it can gain some traction that way.
The freshness is wearing off on this game for a lot of people, so some sort of extra "challenge" could be novel enough to get some extra attention it normally wouldn't.
And mid-league "Private League" events seem like they could be good avenues for exploring small variations to the game like that. I think it could be a good pairing if 0.5 gets a good and thorough end-game overhaul as part of the update...
Don't get lost by being so focused on the target that you forget to enjoy your surroundings.

Well, Zizaran was talking about mediumcore of losing gear upon death as an alternative way to play. I just think it should be a new gamemode for everyone to enjoy.

ideas like this make no sense to me personally

you're just diluting "hardcore"

but for why?

just don't play hardcore if you can't hang
