You just had to make Torghast worse

Community General Discussion

It was already a chore, but now I have to worry about more factors. I just did layer 9, afked briefly, cleared more than I needed, but just went through once I had enough powers to easily clear. And I get 2 STARS… Fine, I don’t care, let me see Floor 10… Still locked…

I shouldn’t need to worry about time, I shouldn’t need to 4 STAR an layer to unlock the next and I shouldn’t have to full clear/waste more time just to unlock the next level.

This has both a GOGOGO mentality and a timeplayed metric mentality rolled into one.

This makes me want to play Torghast less, not more. If you want a rating system, fine, but it should just be cosmetic/to beat your own time/scores. Nothing more.

Torghast is horrible now. It did not need another system and a timer, It needed rewards. I will never touch the place now, it’s dead to me.

It takes more effort to get a 2 star than a 4 star.

As a counter point of view, I think the new Torghast is amazing and I have ran it way more times this week than I needed to.

By the way, they have added many new shoulder transmogs and at least 1 toy to the vendors inside Torghast.

That’s not a counter point, that’s your opinion. You should explain WHY it’s good for a counter point, sir…

No, it takes have some real life event to pull me away from the computer and not full clearing all the layers.

Meh. I like it. It’s something to do and I find it fun.

It’s easy to get 4 Stars once you get how but I agree that Blizz loves being obtuse about how these kind of systems work.

You don’t need to worry about time unless you’re actively AFK’ing. You can run through a whole floor then go back to the start to see if you missed anything and still get 4 stars.

I got a 4 star run today and didnt do anything any different than i always do. I have no idea what made that one run better than the rest. Most of my runs are 3 stars. I dont even worry about it anymore. I make the run, collect my loot, and leave.

Here’s how you can get 4 stars:

Clear the full thing, disregard the timer (100 points)
Zero deaths (or one if you have the Venari upgrade that makes your first death free)
Use empowerment when you have a bunch of mobs about to die and cooldowns up (20-40 points)
Save every soul (10 points)
Kill two elites within 10 seconds of each other once (10 points)
No damage from traps (10 points)
End the run with >500 phantasma, which is easy to do when you full clear (10 points)

Getting four stars is quite easy if you have 100% completion. You will probably get other bonuses as well but they’re more RNG-based so I didn’t list them.

Yeah, it’s bad. Why am I going into every corner to get every item and mob if I don’t really need them? It’s all about the score now. If they wanted to make it harder, just make it harder. Make it more interesting, sure. Just don’t give me these tasks that just chew up my time, thanks.

Well I could’ve at least done this I had 600 leftover, but I bought the cosmetic shoulders.

The only complaint I have with Torghast is that it doesn’t explain the hidden points system very well. Other than that I’ve had a blast with it. The removal of a floor makes it soooooooooooooooooooooooo much better.

  1. Time is a non factor. There have been multiple threads on the forums showing how to 5 star without having a good time.

  2. Complaining about the difficulty of Torghast, on day 3, before we even level the Box of Many Things, is premature

  3. There are plenty of guides available you could have looked up before coming to the forums to complain.

I can’t wait to not get them, it will make me so much stronger.

It’s pretty easy to do! Just buy a little less from Ve’nari. Four less anima powers will probably not kill your run especially if you are doing a slow & safe full clear.

I’m also not super pumped about the timer but at least we can ignore it. It’s also possible to get five stars without any timer points … just try to get those bonuses and use empowered when you’re on a roll!

You got this! Just keep trying :slight_smile:

Find me where I complained once about the difficulty…

If the last vendor has shoulders, you can go back and buy them after you kill the boss. Then you can get the bonus points and the mogs…

Well, as long as you don’t kill the vendor for points

Can you? Doesn’t the score get tabulated AFTER you leave?

18

That’s not the point shillboy

Nope. You get your score after the final boss is dead.

Full cleared every layer in about 20 minutes and got 4 stars, pretty close to 5 and I didn’t even know how the new system functioned.

Y’all need to stop lying.
