Have no idea what to do in the capstone. I get to the second area, and it kills me. I don’t know what I’m missing, can’t progress. This is dumb.
Any help?

You need to use the new Ice Aegis to protect you from the heat.
cant get to the ice aegis. Die as soon as I jump over.
yeah it is designed as a ‘check’, skill, but mostly gear. I was pretty well geared and was surprised what it took to get though it. I started and have been playing organically since level 1.
The second Capstone is better I feel, tons of mobs and a surprise.
I just did the requirement for the 3rd being the tier 15 pit. That was rough and I almost gave up but kept with it. I never died but my damage felt really low. After the first several batches of mobs (packs) it seems to have better pacing and I got though it with plenty of time to spare.
Playing organic is quite interesting. Legendary gear was rare like they said they would be at low levels, but it really didn’t matter. Now at 60 100% legend np at all and even two 1GA drops before even reaching 60. That was interesting.
Okay Im rambling… back to gaming.

Capstones were removed for a reason - I see no reason to bring them back unless it is with a plan to take them back again in s13 with ‘look we’re listening to you!’

just level up more, preferably 60, because this is the stage where legendary gear drops normalize and you get more protection from them. before 60, it is adjusted to be rarer and based more on luck.
before i realized the capstone, i was already level 60, and that hot level only made my character vulnerable, i didn’t even notice any hp loss at all.
capstone 2 have around 6 big butchers, you gotta prep well, good luck.
Item Rarity
Legendary Items will be rarer before Level 40, and rapidly increase in frequency after.
The legendary rate for a Level 40 character in season 11 will be equivalent to the legendary rate for a level 25 character in season 10.
The legendary rate is unchanged for a Level 60 character.

And what is that reason?? All I see is an opinion here. Capstones were the main part of the game for being an OPENWORLD game. Yes the very first idea and was suppose to stick in it until the end but just it had to be one DEV that worshiped streamers and this POE Vs Diablo mainframe/interface/UI…etc. community that lead the “Game Designers” to stop and let “Content Creators” do the job. Yup there is a difference between the two words.
That part I believe, but then you end with:
That part I do not.
I’ve had that idea rolling around in my head since the changes were announced. Introduce a bunch of unpopular changes…then roll a couple of minor ones back and say “see we listen to you”. I don’t think capstones will be one of those though, too much work went into making them and the Ui.
