I haven't done PoE for weeks now, and neither have any of my 20 plus friends that I play with regularly. Sure I need the Etheric light, but PoE is stupid. Why?
1. You have to grind for hours to get a treasure key, only to be given a crappy weapon from the chest. Usually the same crappy weapons over and over.
2. Armor cores and weapon cores give you weapons and armor from Taniks that also suck.
3. Bosses like Qodron and Skolas are extremely difficult, and the difficulty does not match the rewards you get for winning.
4. Finally, the worst of all: you pass through 4-5 rounds of fights before you're able to get any actual rewards. I get it, this isn't a Raid, but beating a round should at least net us SOMETHING. Playing Skolas for 3 hours only to run out of time that I'm able to play (i have a life outside of this game) is super frustrating, especially cuz I can't pick up where I left off and I don't win a thing unless I complete it all. Literally NO other game variant in this game let's you play for 2-3 hours and you come out with nothing. You get more if you complete/win, but you'll still always get something.
Bungie. You want to increase PoE gameplay? Increase chances of exotics in the chest, more if you play a harder level. And give us a chance to win gear or at least glimmer or something after each round. I guarantee people will play more if they know they'll get something for playing even if they can't complete it. You could even make each round more difficult than already, as long as there is gear to be won.
Thoughts?
