rare monolith boss uniques are killing my drive

[My Killer Shack]

I have grinded the dragon timeline to 300 corruption trying to get his rare drop (the relic) with 2 lp...

After all those kills I have gotten one relic with 1 lp which of course got the worst affix on the piece I merged it with.

This is just killing my drive to play this game... I dont mind grinding hard for 3+ lp but its hard enough to get the monolith bosses to drop their rare dropm let aloine with 1-2 lp. and then you need to hope it gets the right affixs or you start the grind all over(this last part im fine with btw)

The fact that i need another rare boss drop after this just is starting to make me not want to play this game.

Would it kill the devs to make the rare boss drops have a higher chance to spawn with 1-2lp after a certain point since they rarely drop as is.

I mean imho the best part about this game/endgame is the slamming of exalteds into uniques.

from the fun of finding that 2-3xT6/7 item to finding a LPX

limiting the LP so drastically so you basically always only get 0-1 is shooting into their own foot, even CoF its 99% 1LP its just not fun after a while

this is where im at currently. but im literally just asking for more 1lps lol

And PoE's grind is going to be different how?

in POE i have never had issues getting non BIS items for my builds.

In your own post it sounds like you have got the item you wanted in this also, It just did not have the stats/LP you wanted so its not the BiS version

So as the person asked how is this diffrent from PoE?

LP items are rare even low LP on more common uniques cause again they are not meant to be something that are common its meant to be something for the min max players to chase.

The common player is just going to get the base uniques to do their build and perhaps while playing randomly get something better.

it sounds more to me that its less the unique or the drop rate and you just do not enjoy the end game mono grind in this game and perhaps enjoy PoE mapping more. That is a perfectly valid opinion and given a few seasons I am sure this games will be far more fleshed out and perhaps you can come back and try it out again.

Leveled from 90-100 almost exclusively after beating campaign for boots off boss up to 500 corruption and I've never seen more than a one 1LP boot ever. Pretty much killed the game for me.

ive already explained this...

here.

In poe i never look for BIS items so I always can get the items i need

Please note in last epoch I am ALSO not looking for BIS items, since I only want 1lp and MAYBE 2 lp at most.

See the similarity?

Due to the rng nature of the LP system 1 lps should drop alot more frequently on items ESPECIALLY if the items themselves dont drop very often.

You are welcome to disagree with me. but that is how I feel about this and thus im giving my feedback

also I enjoy this game a ton. even now with me thinking about quitting I want to play.

However I can feel the quitting desire starting to get stronger and stronger

since I started playing in 0.8 until today, the only thing I can say is what the devs have said over and over "this is by design". I had hoped they would change their ways upon release but the dark is strong in this one. Imagine farming for exalted that can match a piece for LP-ing, then fixing affixes to a right tier or amount on the exalted, then trying to get at least a 2LP legendary, and get forged with the affixes you didn't want. it's RNG+RNG+RNG+RNG. Thank @JuddMox for letting his employees get their hands-on experience from casinos.

Lol yea this game is RNG cubed.

Game should last me until Dragons Dogma tho, but the RNG is trying for D2 numbers.

If you want the best things for your class, make an alt that cannot wear the gear and farm with that

you will be showered in the items you originally wanted

This. I'm starting to think that the gear is actually weighted against the build you are using. I have quite a few common drop daggers with 3LP but have never seen a Smoke Weaver with more than 1. I have 3-4 LP rings but nothing that works with my spec. All my LL gear dropped when I was farming for Wings of Argentus, as soon as I swapped to actually pushing for higher LP LL gear, nothing drops (Cleaver Solution, Exsanguinous, Last Steps, Twisted Heart etc). I have prophecies out the wazoo but none of them affect boss uniques so GG to that...

I even had a Formosus kill where he didn't drop ANYTHING on his boss loot table at 300 corruption... And experimental gloves with health/ward? Was every second drop when I was playing normal rogue but as soon as I swap to LL, never drops let alone exalted exp...

But it's good that I can get a whole set of useless vendor trash for my T9 CoF reward... X D

you're not supposed to get the best of the best gear within a short amount of time.

im sure they'll end up balancing some stuff eventually though, given that they want to run cycle timelines. so things will need to be balanced kinda to that timeline and not legacy where you could farm for years.

with that said though, again, maybe the best thing you could possibly get should be ultra rare.
i mean just look at the rates for 4LP uniques. some are literally near impossible. i really hope people don't come into this game and beg for more and get the game changed because of it.

if the game was that easy, and you got all your gear within the 1st week of farming, you'd also leave the game and never come back - so im not really sure what the difference is either way

since when is 1LP best in slot? since when is 2lp best in slot? read please

Its not neither is 3, 4 is BiS. However something I noticed with this sudden surge of this type of game even with my friends is they see a build guide or something with a list of your goal items and think "Ok so I need to get all of these." when no you don't those are your like your dream goals.

Those are meant to be items that either A) you grind for hundreds+ hours waiting to get the perfect drop with rolls or just get real RNG lucky getting maybe one of them super early while working on the rest.

That is how this game works and why the LP system is there. That way they can make the base items easy to farm so anyone can get their build up and running at a base level and then slowly build it up from there over the course of months during a season.

you wont be doing any new content with 3-4 lp items so you are not missing out on anything all you would be doing is slightly higher corruption tiers in the mono and seeing slightly higher damg numbers.

this guy loved the original uber unique droprates

There is a large difference between getting a item with 3lp and not getting a item at all.

D4 denied you the item all together, in this you can get the base unique with its unique effect that alters your build in whatever way. You are just missing out on 1-2 bonus stats with the rare LP system

Bingo. Finally someone who gets it.

Exactly. You can have an endgame or you can have easily aquireable BiS gear, but you can't have both.

[Zeel Ara]

4 lp is best in slot gear. OP is talking about 1-2 lp. Anyone bringing up long term grind for BiS gear is either failing to read or parading a strawman around.

okay seriously. do people not read what i type? IM ASKING FOR 1LP DROPS TO BE MORE COMMON ON RARE BOSS DROPS. why do people keep bringing up 4lp when im not talking about that

please reread my topic. im talking about 1lp and 2 lp at most. ive never said 3 and 4 should be easy. seriously... why even comment on a post if you arent going to read it
