This game doesn’t need to be balanced it needs to be fun. In order to be fun people need to be able to experience new crazy builds.
Letting people cube something like 9 legendaries of anything you want in season 20 would have been crazy and people would enjoy something like that.
You could also do something like make a 2-week only season where paragon levels don’t exist - and charge money for season access. Please incentivize yourselves to do these things.
Standard isn’t balanced right now, either, and the changes to get there would need to happen to both modes anyway.
There’s nothing wrong with Seasonal fun, but adding 6 more items to the Cube? That’s probably a little more involved than they can do for a single Season.
you cant balance this game anymore, the only way to balance d3 is making a new d3 with much more lower difficulty levels, since we have max gr150 mobs with quintillions of life, is almost impossible to balance sets numbers like 934235932423482384283428 around this… i agree with op, this game no need balance anymore, throw balance to the garbage and just make fun crazy stuffs
D3 is already at the end of the development cycle. Why care about balance when D4 is coming soon? If anything they should focus on the fun part. 9 Kanai Cube would be amazing.
Four damage immunity amulets and five damage multipliers would pretty much let you just stand in one spot and face-tank anything. META damage dealers with nine damage multiplying powers? We’d have 2 minute GR150s by week 2 of the season.
Stroooongly disagreeing.
Balance is the foundation of everything in a game.
Just because people enjoy crazy stuff short term, it doesn’t mean it would be a good idea.
Paragon disparity will exist even if seasons are 1 day old. 2 weeks is enough to hit 2.5k+ paragon for pros where casuals are likely to sit on 500.
The gap for paragon is lower the longer the season due to XP required at higher paragons is higher. On day 1… some will hit 1k+ where some has 0 paragon.
Then why are you playing D3? It has never been anywhere close to balanced throughout its entire life cycle, from release to now. It has always been unbalanced. If it has to be balanced to be fun, why are you still playing D3?
