Just returning to the thread… i’ve since advanced a seasonal character to 60+ and the situation is a little bit different.
If i say anymore, that’s just giving them ammo to harm my experience so i’ll shut it, but progression changes once you hit endgame.
Makes me wonder about the campaign though. And the fact that you need to finish the campaign before they let you into torment 1. Given how soon you get to 60, i think the difficulty experience from just playing the campaign is probably still significantly broken (blaster gameplay). The only difference now is there’s a delay of getting to 60 before it regresses into drivel again. Well, baby steps for blizzard i guess, and what was done in s6 was a definite improvement while it lasts.
