Endgame Content
I am a fan of arpgs especially those that are close to diablo 3. I love seeing and hearing the shiny orange ray waiting for me to pick it up. I was searching around for similar arpgs and because wolcen is in a weird spot i found this one. I wanted to ask about the endgame content that this game offers and if the loot system is the same as diablo 3 or is more like Grim Dawn that you see just different colors in the letters. Overall i am curious about its replayability in the endgame.

the END game is the game. I got bored around act 3 end. but pushed through as fast as possible and the end game is AWESOME!!! So much to do and sooo many builds to make. I am trying to figure out how to level all my characters to 100 so i can do JUST endgame with them.

Yeah but what is the endgame content though?

After you finish the campaign, you get access to tinka's domain, which has stuff like random dungeons, and you get access to a new difficulty called Mythic, that goes from 1 to 15.

If you managed to hit Mythic 15, you get access to "Endless Dungeons" that have infinite scaling.

Also, even though the maximum character level is 100, there're "masteries" that also have infinite scaling.

There's a great build variety for every class, I'm having tons of fun trying stuff around.

The end-game farming is about (1) true legendary equipments - compared to farming ancient but ignoring stats in D3, (2) crafting materials - compared to farming souls in D3 but one also needs much less than in D3, and (3) mastery level - compared to paragon, but separate for each character.

In Chronicon, one has basically full enchant power to manipulate the equipments to their best shape. Instead of farming ancients repeatedly for the best item (you get your elemental + double crit amulet?) in D3, in chronicon one just farm the crafting material and it's much faster. The first almost-perfect build probably takes 20-30 hours from scratch but eventually every 5 hours is enough to create a brand new almost-perfect build.

And to farm these stuff, there is something similar to greater rift ("Endless Dungeons" as mentioned) that you can keep going deeper or deeper, though not seemingly as fun as greater rift I'd say.

Other than this, Chronicon is similar to D3 in the sense that we build our characters around unique items and set items that gives their unique powers that boost certain class of skills or certain combinations.

What makes Chronicon charming, I think, is that Chronicon don't use artificial numbers like 300x damage to a skill in D3 to create a build, but abundant, more balanced and free combinations. At least when I last played D3 in 2019 every class had really only 1 or 2 damage-dealing skills and 1 to 3 builds that matters (and some class doesn't even matter at all until they patch and kill some others). In Chronicon there are much more viable balanced builds for every class.

For the smoothness of multiplayer and greater rifts challenges D3 is better in my opinion, but I eventually abandon D3 for its horrible balance that everybody is forced to work on the same build. I have spent 50-60 hours on Chronicon and might eventually abandon it for difficulty in multiplayer arrangement, and endless dungeon isn't really as fun as greater rift, but so far I am pretty happy with farming for numerous new builds.

I only wish there is a game that looks like D3 from the outside but has the core like Chronicon :p

That being said, anybody wants to play multiplayer with me?

I am looking for the same thing thats why i asked about the endgame content. I prefer non pixeled graphics on arpgs but in the end i may like it. Seems like it doesn't have much apart from trying builds but having 50 hours content with that price seems fair enough.

By 'In a weird spot' do you mean 'broken awful garbage by scam artists'?
