Honestly i am very curious what motivates ppl to keep on grinding after a certain point. Personally xp gets very slow past p250 and i stopped at p275. Feels just not worth it, due to:
very boring gameloop, no challenge
only way to get decent xp is from pits, doing the same over and over is boring
havent found any meaningfull upgrades gearwise since p180
i have maxed out all my glyphs ages ago
collected all citadel stuff
all loot that drops is pure garbage, no aspect upgrades either
gambling with obols feels utterly pointless as is opening boxes from bartening.
the mount and trphy from p300 is nothing special either, will get it automatically after a few seaons.
so yeah, ia m curious. I am not saying make the grind easier, but at the very least add more meaningfull content.
The game has been out a year, and we still dont have enganging end-content.
the entire progression within the game stops pretty early on, so why bother continue playing?
I will finish Paragon 300 in Hardcore just for the achievement. It is my final thing to do before 100% now.
After that I will never do it again.
It really doesnt add much power at all past 270 or so depending on the build.
And 270 is only like 30% of the exp so much more reasonable.
switched to barb at p250 as its my fav classes, however the damage output compared to SB this season is terrible.
you dont even need to it this season, if you get to 250 a few seasons long that will add up in eternal and you will reach p300 like that … So there really is no reason to suffer any longer
compete in what way though? doing pit 150 is pretty easy on SB, nothing beyond that and there is no ladder
I hear there is a cosmetic for doing so.
I may never though at the current time investment.
On a gameplay factor it would only matter if you wanted to compete in the Pit.
Absolutely nothing. Especially when I will get it after after a few seasons of just playing. Maybe if I could play some alts that weren’t completely underpowered, or didn’t rely on some silly clunky mechanic I might have naturally hit it this season.
I got to 289. It’s just pit after pit after pit. I tried to break the monotony by doing a few hordes, nightmare dungeons etc. But it’s always the same trash drops.
I was bored for over a week before I finally snapped out of it and stopped logging in.
I didnt „grind” to 300. I just played the game, how I wanted, with whatever class and build I wanted and I had fun. Level 300 was just an indirect result of experimenting and having fun.
If you have a mindset focused of „I need to reach 300”, then you’re wasting your time. Cuz you wont have fun and you’ll end up frustrated complaining on forums.
You see that is not an option - I hate Hardcore. The last thing I want is to play Hardcore for like 4 seasons in a row. So doing it all in one season is the only way to go. Now for Softcore I would agree with you.
I finally gave up at 280. Way too long a grind to 300. Not happening and I m playing the fastest build in the game on the most op character in the game with gear so op I can close my eyes and beat the game (evade SB) so not much hope for me ever get 300 in a season. 100 tier pits in 90s and I cant do it. Yikes. Have to rely on the eternal paragon thing to get 300.
