The game has been out for a little over 1 week now and the forums, Reddit and Discord are full of requests for character boosting from LVL 1 - 50 simply because people are too lazy to level by themselves!
I myself have played an SC char to 50 to get to know the game and then switched to HC since then.
In HC it’s even more annoying, because when you die, your beloved character is completely gone!
The next thing is that some LVL 20s in T3 - T4 are running around in the events… totally unnecessary and we’re not even talking about all the “boosting services” on the internet where you pay real money for levels!
According to Blizzard this shouldn’t exist anymore and I hope that this will be prevented in the future!
It can’t be that people decide to play solo and the group players let 2 or 3 HC chars get to 50 every day because they’re just dying.
Then you can only play 1-2 characters per season if you don’t have the time or desire to gamble for about 20 hours at LVL 50.
So Blizzard, I hope there will be an adjustment, ideally also an LVL cap for the tier levels, which you don’t even get in there as a low level… (T3 only from 50)
why push all the OP rogues that can clear the captstone dungeon by an earlier level? I went in on a legion event with my sorc at level 34 when everyone else around me was level 58 and i did fairly decent (I am playing on hard core mode so if I would have died, i would have lost everything). We even got the full 3 chests and I nearly died 4 times but I was having alot of fun with the risk being high and the reward being “okay”…
As much as I hate boosting and getting boosted it has always been a thing in Diablo games, people will always boost and ask for boost as long as they do not ask me themselves I do not care what they decide to do.
I boosted a few friends who had already leveled once, but wanted to roll a different character. Why spend days letting them get to 50 when I can just boost them to 50 in an hour and play with them.
Because thats all people do is get carried nobody is talking about your friends that wanna reroll a char and be carried by you. That is the minority of the minority of the minority. We are talkin about the majority of people that are getting carried to defeat the purpose of the grind to level. At this point Blizzard might as well sell level 100 characters like they do in WoW because clearly people dont want to work for it.
bad idea, why gate level lock players? if they can solo it at an earlier level why punish them? I’m playing hardcore right now and I havent tried the capstone dungeon yet, I probably wont until im much higher (level 36 atm) but I do have 4 of the 5 sessions renown system cleared for the bonuses. Funny, I still havent even finished chapter 1 yet of the campign but If I get drunk and say f;it and head into the capstone at 40, let me go kill myself! hahah
Let them boost. They’ll get bored with the game far sooner than we will, and it won’t really hurt anything in the long term. I can see boosting being desired once you do it the first time the hard way. Personally I’m going to do it myself on my Sorc and when I’m finished with the campaign I’m going to nab all the statues and do some dungeons to unlock aspects. Make it easier on me to fiddle with other classes. Except druid. They really suck right now. Never liked them anyway. I like to pew pew from afar so Rogue is probably going to be next. It just really sucks that you’re pigeonholed into one or two builds. You can’t really do what you want to do.
God I hope they don’t do this. How am I supposed to challenge myself and check my build if I can’t go in at a lower level than recommended? Doing the capstones early has been one of the most fun things I’ve done in this game.
Its not gating anything, It’s called play the game and you would be at the level required to do the capstone. The whole reason people are getting carried is because if you completed the campaign on a single character you can make a new one and from level 1 enter the first capstone and ull be level 15+ at end and enter 2nd capstone and be level 25+ at end of that one then they just stand at the door getting massive amounts of levels with 0 effort.
Broken is broken cap the capstones with levels so people cant cheese the game and bypass the leveling process. Sorry if you are a casual and dont want to put in the work, not our fault maybe play fortnite its more of the play 30min put down for a week game it sounds like you like.
He is saying you shouldn’t be allowed to and I agree. You’re cheating the game. And your account should be banned.
However, I do think once you beat the game you shoud be able to create a lvl 20 character or maybe even a lvl 50 one to allow you to bypass the grindy lower levels to access the even grindier endgame levels, so long as you beat the crapstone cathedral quest.
If it was official then it would not be cheating.
But as it stands twinking and power leveling people is exploitation of the game and it should be banned. imho.
Ultimately people who get boosted will come to the forums claiming the game is boring and will review bomb the game saying it’s grindy and boring and rubbish… when in fact they are the problem, they’re weak minded and incapable of playing a game without cheating and exploiting and using the I Win button. Maybe just ban them from the forums if they are caught twinking… silence their accounts. That’d stop them posting negative complaints that they themselves have caused.
Just because you want your level 100 participation trophy for 1 hour of playing and given to you doesnt mean we want to be in your same boat of FOTM games and put them down after 1 hour of play time till next season. Go back to Diablo 3 where you can get level 70 and 1000 paragon levels in 2 hours by letting ur buddy carry you through gr150s.
Bud my alt accounts are higher level than you because of this broken system. Took me literally 2 hours to run another account through the 5 acts I was level 28 at the end of it on the alt account. Then I rushed the account through both capstones and since have leveled 1 character of every class to level 60 plus on that account. I havnt killed 1 single monster on this account with a single character.
You say this is ok, I say this just goes to show in seasons the people that work their butt off to get lvl 70 plus in a few days will just be bombarded with clan members and other people begging to carry them through the capstones so they can move to t4 dungeon camping for free exp.
