i quit because losing XP on death is braindead

[TonnieKrain]

Literally the reason im quiting is that after lvl 91, it takes you like 8 hours of doing T16' to levelup, and if you die to some over-tuned pack of mobs you lose like 15% of your exp...
Entire 8 hours of grinding lost in like 4-5 deaths from one shots.

Who thought its a good idea ?

And i can only imagine how painful it is on lvl 95+

I dont enjoy the grind for grind to then just die and grind again.
I have 100+ divines my character is 75% resist capped and has 8000 energy shield, and i still get one shot by a pack of ranged mobs with frost damage (happened just now)

Im out. Marvel Rivals or DayZ waits for me. Even No Mans SKy will bring me more enjoyable content right now, than just grinding T16'th to then die and lose all the EXP again.

XP loss on death has always been a thing, since 2014ish level 91 is insane most people make a new char way before that point. give up on leveling up and just grind for loot

Can I have your stuff?

Well then start getting used to changing things, to imrove the game. This is PoE 2 not PoE 1, and its not suppose to be the same.
Remove EXP loss on death as penalty, you already lose your map, you lose the loot, you lose the maps "breach/delirium/boss/irradiate" bonuses.

I hate the mentality of "oh this bad mechanic that is not mandatory and not comfortable for players been here since forever, therefore its fine"

EA sucks. We are the guinea pig. Is Last Epoch worth it?

Old school. Back in EverQuest (MMORPG), you would lose 6% EXP on death. Would take you 5+ hours to get it back (level 51+) if you didn't have a Cleric to resurrect you.

Glad ARPGs are finally getting around to it. Hopefully we see less glass cannons and more people focused on their defense and kiting abilities.

reason why my best char in poe was lvl 92, I'm just not cut for it

[KenoZuki]

I agree that it should be an either or scenario. Either remove the 1 try only on maps, or remove the xp loss. Having both is just a kick in the balls.

Poe 1 Poe 2 are pretty much the same game, its old rope resold , repackaged with the same new improved sh!tty mechanics, Laggy, Visual clutter, currency bloat, one shot kills. But with new and improved WSAD

LvL 91 is a good achievement I think?

I can't understand why anyone would support xp loss. It is the dumbest and most archaic mechanic in the history of mechanics.

Because it punishes glass cannon builds. You're forced to invest into defenses to prevent being one-shotted, as well as leveling up your own ability in kiting enemies.

We literally have people here who died 100+ times. Bruh... They need to learn. One way or another.

Just don't play it. Sit this one out, at least until it's out of EA. They literally put the testing phase behind a "paywall" so not every guinea pig plays it and then complains in the (wrong) forum about being a guinea pig. You had to apply with your wallet to become a beta tester.

All you had to do was wait for it to become F2P and at least somewhat polished. This is the most unnecessary complaint of all.

It does hurt when you lose 10% exp at a high level, that honestly makes me a bit nervous and cautious when mapping now, but somehow I'm starting to enjoy that feeling, lol!

[Barracuda]

The issue is maps are too sweaty. There is no relax experience in them. Because of the 1 shots you can lose hours of exp. Or worse loot. I don't think they will ever change it, its more or less the backbone of POE.

I really enjoy speed and speed farming so I have to use lower tier maps to get that. Or else yeah i am dead with 1 mistake or if a pack has the worst affixes. So I go where 1 shots dont kill me
