Some people may say who is this crazy dude. But the thing is that we finish all the game content without masterworking at all. We go then to the Pit to farm resources to do what?? To do higher levels to get resources to… to do what? Even higher levels? No point at all.
Some others may say this is self achievement or so, but until I see my detailed damage log there is no personal achievement at all, like I just did lvl 60 or 80 for what? No point.
Im silent about resource cost, higher level pit bosses with the timer, class balance regarding Pit… and many other things…
Speaking as a “casual”, I have thought about this just yesterday.
Previous Diablo games, you had the goal of completing the campaign on 4 difficulties, at which point you had beaten the game. Once the campaign is over, the hunt for the perfect item begins.
The pit actually has its perks! For me, it’s like a free gym membership, helping me bulk up enough to smack down level 200 bosses like they’re piñatas!
The T200 Tormented UBer boss actually has lower HP than PIT 90+ boss. Really no point in farming PIT mats just to grind the higher PIT tier in this Closed system.
There’s no point playing video games period. Complete waste of time. I get a giant sword? So what I can’t pay my bills with it. Of course there is the enjoyment side of it. I enjoy playing them so I guess that’s the point after all. Who’d have thunk it
Some people just love this type of game loop. They want to go as deep as they can in the Pit until their build simply can not sustain any deeper. This is what they thrive on. Let them enjoy their content. It’s clearly not content that suits your game style so don’t play it
K thanks for letting us know you’re not going to be upgrading your gear via pit?
Agreed. There is so many chaotic things going on all at once. There is also soooo much power in masterworking but its not really needed outside of the pit. Its like the TOB glyph in S2 because it was pointless outside of AoZ
tbh getting items to +9 you can do uber bosses solo but the problem is those darn shards you need to do them are in the pit only! and the drop rate on them is very low. i did about 20 runs at +110 and only got 2
Do you really think difference is going to be that noticeable and gamechanging ?
If you play certain class/spec you gonna oneshot Tormented bosses regardless of gear. If you dont play certain class/spec,you gonna spend 10-15 minutes trying to kill Tormented boss,and no amount of fully upgraded gear is going to help you.
Pit is here to provide harder content (number wise). And because most people won’t do something that doesn’t reward anything, there is masterworking tied to it.
Lilith and uber-uber bosses asides, any content can be cleared with a somewhat decent gear and paragon board made on the fly during leveling.
If you don’t enjoy this type of content, then you’re right, there is no point to do it.
You’re left with a useless loothunt because you already roll over the content you want/enjoy to do.
