When I create a character and have to work for every level I really enjoy the game. When I get to the 240’s it starts to slow down so I create a new character. My situation is that I work for everything to 60 then I am given the 240 + paragon points and am back in the same place. It would be nice If each character could work for all levels, skill points as well as paragon points
Trying to gauge the market reaction again, Rod?
Agreed. At least let us toggle paragon sharing on or off at character creation
Leveling will take longer in Season 8.
OP is talking about paragon sharing, not leveling speed.
I would like the option to turn it off. I started a new character on eternal, hit 60, put in my 273 points and am immediately one shotting everything (boss included) on pit 20 to unlock torment-no glyphs, half my aspects and no uniques, and trash gear below 750.
I could have blasted much higher but I wanted to start on T1.
That’s fine when I want to build a character quickly (I did) but since item progression doesn’t exist, it would be nice to have a way to still feel I’m growing stronger, without artificial rules and handicapping myself to mimic it.
It’ll still take longer to get to 60 on each character next season. They buffed leveling 4 or 5 times or whatever since season 1. We also will have a harder time getting into T4 so the shared paragon won’t make our fresh 60’s as OP feeling once we add the shared paragon.
… so youre wrong.
250 Paragon points will still feel like 250 Paragon points, even if those points dont bring you as deep into the progression.
250 will still be 250
250 right now makes you feel super strong. It won’t make as much of a difference when the game as a whole is harder.
If it was an on/off option that would be okay–but I like it how it is because it facilitates being able to test out every class & every build at high levels during a season=goodbye boredom (for the most part).
Yeah but not by much. Someone posted ptr took an extra 2hours.
So going from 5-6 hours to 7-8 hours from 1-60 isnt really a big deal.
Thats kind of the whole premise behind the paragon levels carrying over to new characters. Its to streamline making an alt easier. Could they make it to where it could be a toggle where no paragon transfers over to alt. Sure, will they? No
Is that doing the campaign?
It really depends a lot on what activities you do. Some won’t find it that much different at all and others will notice a substantial difference.
It would be nice to have an option but it’s really not that big a deal to me. I usually just use the points 10-20 at a time. If you have the discipline, you can just add them 1 by 1 while you level. I found the amount I add at intervals gave a pretty satisfying leveling experience.
I played through both campaigns with a new character and didn’t even move my P285 more than a quarter of a level. I would consider that more of a badly thought-out design waste of my time problem.
I dont do campaign every season. If you do campaign it would be slower.
The increase is from lv 1-25 if im not mistaken. Seasonal stuff seems like the most optomal place to level or field of hate.
I’ve been seeing campaign is faster. I wouldn’t do campaign more than once.
I would do it every season if i could unlock Torment before i finish. In reality, you cant stop and smell the roses. You have to just laser focus on the campaign so you can unlock to Pit and Torment difficulty.
