Disappointed to know I reach the cap

I was eager to reach higher mastery levels, and was looking forward to reach 180 so I could fill all my mastery points, but then, I reach 90 and realize it’s the cap.
For the moment my logic brain actually understand the cause, you shouldn’t be able to fill all your mastery, it’s all about a choice, but another part in my just lost a huge chuck of interest in the co-op mode. I was naively expecting I was going to fill points up to 180, and according to my progression estimate, it would take like forever to reach (given the speed you earn XP on level 89) so I’d have fun for a long upcoming period.

I don’t know if there’s a reasonable solution for this. infinity powercreep may not be healthy, but hitting a cap isn’t neither.

My Suggestion:

We could get the option to sell our mastery points for a new commander. Say 100 levels for a new commander. but you can only sell points you get above 90. So on 190 you can return to 90 and get a new commander.

That would keep my interest on the game, as I’d look forward to 190 way harder than I was looking for 180 for masteries.

Bragging rights and cosmetics.

Yeah, Ascension was added just for something for folks to do, before the level capped at 90 mastery. Basically just a big number thrown out to work towards.

Similar topics have had people suggested adding ways to earn the rewards for doing well in versus ladder. For people like me that don’t play ladder it’d at least give something, granted that isn’t for everyone either.

That’s why I go to another server and start over lol

Actually it didn’t took long to get my artanis portrait and lv 90 on all 3 servers (I think it was less than 3 months), as daily bonus and weekly muta were a lot of exp. I play only on random queue, and it was handy that artanis is good enough for brutal missions from level 2, good enough at level 15 for most brutations, and he have cheese builds that doesn’t feel too tiring when grinding and can carry most missions easily.

I do find myself playing a lot less after that goal I’ve set earlier though.

Welcome to the club lol

I’ve always thought that each commander should level separately.

I’m always baffled when people aren’t willing to play the mode just because they, you know, enjoy the darn game.

Well I mean it’s extremely normal to feel disappointment if your original understanding (obviously mistaken) was that you’ll get more points through mastery/ascension.

And just because they feel disappointed, it doesn’t mean they’ll stop playing coop. Even if their initial sentiment may be that way.

We just need more stuff for ascention levels.
Emojis that we have now and 1 spray for 1000 level definitely not enough.
Portraits, decals, more sprays. At least this.
