To the Devs abaut Paragon Cap. Let it stay at 800

In the past, you made a good Job for D3.
And i beg you, let Paragon Cap at 800.
It was meant to be at 800 when it was included and the cap should have been never removed.

Well, seeing as it was originally capped at 100 per char with paragon 1.0 and then entirely uncapped with paragon 2.0, I’m not sure where you’re getting that from.

I had to refresh my memory and read the paragon 2.0 info from the patch 2.0.1 notes and they clearly state there’s no cap. So there never was any cap at 800 paragon or any indication that was meant to be.

Technically I think the 20k cap (the confirmed cap as of now) has always been there but it propably was chosen as I believe the devs never expected people ever to reach it based on the game balancing back then.

The 20k cap was originally at 10k but when people got close they increased it.

(That or console simply had a different cap at 10k for unknown reason)

The cap on console at one point was 10k. All the cheaters had 10k paragon with all that nutty gear that 1-shot mobs at GR150.

beg about how cool is the p800 cap
season 29 starts:
proceeds to play 2-3 hours per day, some days of the week
while playing spend 60% of the time at town and barely do greater rifts
plays for a few weeks… not even reach paragon 2k (even if the cap is 800 would never reach above 2k in one season)
gets bored because crappy gear and blames cheaters
forgets about P800 cap
go to play another game in less than 2 months after season starts
-typical paragon 800 capper mindset (@op and others)
dont even play but wants the only way to keep stronger to be capped so you can complain a bit less about how bad u’re

The original cap may or may not have been 10k on PC too, of that I’m not sure.

What I’m sure is that I’ve seen footage of a player on PC having 20k paragon and the XP meter on the UI displaying no more XP can be gained.

i played D3 since release ( inferno yay and we doubled it) played it for years but stopped after that paragon bull sh itt and i could have sworn 800 was max at start. at these times 800 was hard to get and i was one of the first.

( but maybe im wrong because how old it is and how long it is in the past)

The Cap should stay.
Do you think throwing paragon lvls in your face after logging in is fun ??

Definitely more fun than not having it. I’ve had gaps of 20+ hours played between upgrades this season. Playing for over 20 hours and have nothing to show for it is not fun in the slightest, paragon gives you a guaranteed progress.

The game would need a complete overhaul to make capped paragon a good idea.

Nope was never and should never be 800. It was 100 before the 2.0.1 patch and even prior to that patch multiple players leveled paragon 100 characters before even thinking of min/maxing loot to convert to the new paragon system.

Why you ask? Oh idk, maybe because players actually like leveling paragons for a guaranteed reward system instead of spending upteen hours to never get their perfect item. Shocking!

Trust me, I was one of those players, I played Vanilla to death not caring that there was a paragon system. But you can’t really after 10 years expect players are going to like to go back to those days, it just doesn’t make sense.

Hey mine as well open the Auction house again too if we think loot is this important suddenly!

Trolling is an art, and it takes practice. You’re better than this, come on man.

I think I got to 650 paragon in s1 over 500 hours played. The cap might have been higher than 800 but it was pretty tough to get to it.

edit: I was 675 paragon and played 575 hours. From scrolling through the leaderboard from s1, the highest paragon I see on there was 888. gabynator might have been higher with his bot-infused progress but it won’t let you see his heroes haha.

In season 1 it really was hard. Nowadays with the strength of current builds you reach 800 in 5h-10h

no no no. im not trolling… im sayign the truth. the uncomfortable truth… and thats why people is uncomfortable with it :wink:

Lol…

First, this is just untrue nonsense.

Second, paragon cap should be increased to 1600 minimum. Having to pick and choose which singular thing you want to pump 200 points into is aids.

Oh my, being forced to wisely spend a limited amount of paragon points… The horror.

They could have made it worse… Like limited paragon point respecs…

:scream:

Room temperature IQ’s get ignored. Welcome to the list.

Oh no, I’ve been ignored. Oh the agony.

293 kelvin… Thanks for the compliment.

:rofl:

with the current numbers 800 is too low and can be reliably hit in less than 30 hours played and a lot of the poeple that usually play more than two weeks will get bored fast.
1500-2000 should be the mark to retain more people in the season.
