Solo bounties are so painful

I wish bounties were a little easier solo… like 3 per act rather than 5 with the same rewards. Still not as efficient as 4 man bounty runs, but better than the suffering of current solo bounty

With the exception of clearing out the 2nd floor enemies on large 1st floor maps, they go by so quick.

I only do solo bounties because I don’t have any friends and it’s really an enormous time sink

You do have the option of joining a public bounty game. Certainly, there are cases where these games goes sideways, but I would say 80% are pretty smooth where players are getting things taken care of in a reasonable manner.

@DJAetius,
Who is your comment directed towards?

Bounties are easy imo. They do tend to get boring (painfully) however especially on maps in which there are large sections of no monsters. Laughable are the maps in which there is a long path leading to a dead end and upon reaching the end you get a juicy pylon but can’t really appreciate the pylon’s juice because all the monsters are gone.

Yeah, I don’t mean they’re difficult, just that they take a while and are not particularly engaging. And reforging takes so many resources that you need to run several sets of bounties to even get a decent roll on a single item sometimes.

Yes, bounties are easy, but op wasn’t speaking in regards of difficulty; they were speaking in terms of duration. Running bounties solo takes a large amount of time; especially in comparison to running bounties in a split farm group which takes about 3-4 times shorter to complete than running solo.

Another topic of you just outright complaining when you have shown post after post your inexperienced and not greatly knowledgeable on this game. Please stop posting this nonsence on the forums, read some guides learn how to play efficiently and then maybe you won’t need to constantly post this drivel.

how can you actuially find bouties hard? bouties is like the easyest thing on earth to do. even story mode is harder.

at best clearign all 5 acts solo bouties take 30 minutes why you complaining.

It’s still much much more than in group play and that was the point. There’s a massive disparity between solo and group play. 30 min for full bounty run might just be doable solo but in the same time a group has completed several full bounty runs.

and? if you are not patient dont play a game.

if you only play to complain just stop playing.
family games, dnd games, and mmorpg groups must be really fun with that person… im being sarcastic.

theres also ESO mobile its pay to win and you can finish everything for money without waiting.

[edit] in 30 years of gaming. i complained once. FF11… the mapping is horrible. the only time i complained about a game

[2nd edit] the op should consider bringing his friends along. it would make his game time more enjoyable and we wouldn’t have to hear it’s complaints about how much of a hurry he’s in to go back to doing nothing

I agree…

But is by choice or by force that you do so?

If no choice, how you give a go to community?
It’s really the best way to find other players to play with you in the mode and difficulty you like!
And it’s build in the game! The button next to “Friend”, is “Community” (far right)

Cynical reply, INCOMING!

This is why I have no interest in Blizz forced multiplayer. They already do it in decidedly unfun ways.

There are some bounties that are just so very annoying. Most of Act V bounties are under that heading.

The vast majority of the new zones are bad.

There are also the ones that say “kill 50” and you run into hundreds as you look for the rare mob. Then there are the ones that say “kill 100”, but the area has exactly that many and you have to run around looking for that last kill.

Yeah, with how bounties are setup, it feels like a bad way to try and get you to group up with silent people with no interaction with them.

/cynical off

They can’t win here… it’s either “too easy”, or “forced or group” or whatever…
When you can’t win, well, mmm… why bother?

Yes please, I can then scream through the bounties with my character, bring in my other 3 accounts and get ahead with less work

Add some speed skills to your build…I’ve found it speeds it up at the cost of damage or defense.

Bounties to hard solo , apparently lack the ability to do Public Bounties . Please NERF bounties . LOLOLOLOL

I wish bounty mats drop on the death of RG for both normal and GR, even 1 per mat per RG is good enough for me.

While I don’t think anything about them is hard, they are annoying as hell.

Especially running through the first floor of something for the millionth time to kill everything on the second floor, only to have the kills required counter stuck at one while you stand around waiting for a worm to spawn somewhere, or because you left one of those things on the wall somewhere, or because of some mob down some obscure all way on the other side of the map :rofl:

Not hard, just annoying as hell, and monotonously boring.
