So dear Blizzard, how long will it take you to fix the game? The fundamental mechanisms as I see it are broken!
I as countless others are spending hours upon hours farming the Pit, Helltide and the Tormented bosses.
Most of us are not getting anything we can use with even one Greater Affix on it, and even if one GA drops the other stats seem to be based on the build that we are not running and to be frank won’t even consider to do in this or any other season.
So we are forced into going out of the game and trade for days. None of us can farm any gold in the game or rather the amount we can obtain is miniscule compared to what the items that would be 5-10% improvement on our stats actually cost on the market….
For the sake of the argument, let’s say we do manage to get that “one” item for around 2b for one out of 10+ slots that most classes can wear… and then, well this is where the fun begins, we brick it 9,5 times out of 10.
And if we partly brick it will get those tempering that we didn’t want for our build, actually yet again, we are getting the absolute total opposite of what we would like to have or even could work with.
So there is absolutely no way for any of us who are not running character after character up to 100 and then moving on, you know those of us who want to push the end game to progress… we just can’t improve our stats to actually farm harder content in the game. Which is The Pit, so what is the grand design here? As I see it you have failed and patch after patch, season after season keep falling and fall short on the promise. Is D4 your first game? You guys could just go over to all the other teams for any other game under your own umbrella and learn a thing or two…
So is any of this by design? Or is this a massive fail on your part? When will you react? Do you care about the player base who are at this state and getting frustrated and by the hour getting more and more discouraged? What’s the point of letting us loot 11 pairs off Flicker Steps regardless of them beeing GA or not.
Do you even grasp the depth of the problem with the game? Item design is at this point rotten, the base stats for each class if the item drop is not a 2 GA basically not usable in the endgame, and the enchanting will ruin anyone and everyone…
Why can’t you sit down and redo this, why can’t you reward the effort and time and money we have and are investing in this game. Do you have any understanding of the basics of a game? I know that you know how a slot machine works and even those machines know that the user/player needs a bit of dopamine once in a while…
Anyways, let’s move on to the next absolut failure of a feature which is Masterworking, so here is an actual example for you. I have reseted my amulet and weapon over 160 times (all my gear is closer to 550 resets…) and still haven’t managed to get the crits I want for my build. Din’t you promise that players could do so many different builds and this and that when you were sitting on all those campfires. How is this not yet another failure?So can we agree that every mechanism in the game rigged against the player? So for how long do you think you can fool people investing in this game?
Not that I think you guys actually read any of this but if you do, here is some constructive criticism or actual suggestions.
Lets us the Neathiron and lock in the first crit at lvl 4 using masterworking, let it be 5k Neathrion and 2.5k Anglebreath for that lock, I as many others would gladley farm that and make sure we could keep that Crit if the next Crit fails on what we want. Following that logic I would play the game and would have a goal and I for one would know it would be doable instead of sitting here and writing this novel. At lvl 8, let it be twice the Neathiron and Anglebreaths and that would lock in the second Crit if it would need to have to be reseted again.
Same goes for the tempering lets it be like 10 Resplendent Spark to reset the Tempering and if the item is not tempered let us give it 10 more tempering attempts with those Sparks, while at it, lets us spend everything we have to improve the rolls of the Temperings as well, even if the amount would be obscene it would still show the player that you can archive this…
Regarding the gear and the GA and all those other stats and the trading, here is yet another solution to keep us in the game playing it, let us farm whatever we get from your so-called RNG (which at this point any end-game player would argue being a rigged show rather than RNG…) and give the items to the Occultist, let’s use that useless Flickerstep, let us gather several of those, give those with different GA and what not to the NPC and adding Sparks or whatever shard and in return have some chance to get that pair with 4 GA’s, maybe one out of all the millions people who play this game would actually use that item for some kind of NPC build which would be based of stacking of those stats like life on hit and damage each wednesday aspects you gracelessly have designed for us…
So Dear developers, why don’t you please take some time and consider fixing the game instead of investigating one darn Potion for 3 days. Make this enjoyable for all of your audience and not only those who are in it for the 1-100 and then goes offline til the next season comes out. Coman let all of us enjoy the farm instead of getting to the point that one feels broken by your total ignorance and by the state of things, absolut incompetence.
