How is Crucible Grind?

[Casul Gamer]

I've heard the boss is really tough and I haven't even gotten to it yet. I've heard people getting up to level 30 so I was wondering if it gets a lot easier once you get higher levels and better gear.

And how long does it take to level up and gear up? Do you just do daily challenges or crucible runs or both? I've beaten Act 1 with 3 characters, but I might just try another build with a new char if crucible grind is not enjoyable.

The gearing up system is mostly the enchanting system and I would say that needs addressing..... You mostly get bases and then enchant them, every now and again you might get a purple drop that the down side isnt to bad and has something you can work with. This isnt a Diablo style gearing up system. I have beaten the cruciblie numerous times, seen the gold drops(uniquies) and they are really lack luster, your gearing will come from acquiring bases and hoping for a decent enchant.

• Echo Knight only looks tough the first few tries, but with a bit of practice is a very simple boss fight and easily farmed legendary loot pinata as all his moves are telegraphed and leave him open to attacks (depending on which weapon one uses).
  
• Same for Crucible too: after a few runs it becomes very simple and a super fast way to get a ton of money, which can then be used to mass-enchant common gear to hopefully turn them into epic gear with great stats.

The hardest part of gearing up was finding a proper weapon though. The blacksmith is kinda useless as he doesn't sell all weapon types, so finding a proper weapon may take some time.

For myself it took ages to get a base Katana, but luckily the 2nd one that dropped rolled perfectly after I enchanted it.

would be lovely to get an enchant reroll system added

It does suck bricking an item, but there are a decent amount of whites dropping and it only costs 1 silver to enchant.
