Well your doing it wrong. I was too then I read up and used strategies to level up. It is night and day diff. Just loaded up the new expansion and with in about an hr I had most all my stuff up around 605-608 because I researched what bounties to save and then cashed them all in and got many powerful rewards before even playing. I consider myself a casual but a smart one. I use a lot of methods that hardcore guys use to help me keep progressing.

And yet, that one fix the fact that the content isn’t engaging long-term. They need to ask themselves why the majority of the playerbase came into this update so low. Maybe I’m not doing the power level grind right, but that doesn’t fix the fact that when most of us log in to play we feel dried out immediately. They have a lot to work with in the game that they don’t use. The holiday event was grindy for no power level help. They have mayhem game mode rotting somewhere in a cage never to be seen again that could easily spice up a holiday event, an iron banner once in a blue moon. They could do a once a month exotic grind event where you can use 3 of coins for just one day out of the month on a Xur Saturday. They could easily give incentives without making the game too casual, they just don’t know how to get to this middle ground. Even when the game was too casual during vanilla D2 there was no engaging content or events. The whole point of eververse was to add more fun updates and they’ve only done something very few times since they added eververse 3 years ago. I’m not asking for it to be easier, I’m asking for it to be fun at least if there’s going to be a grind.

I can’t argue with any of that as I am struggling too. It took a lot of time to get all the powerful gear bounties and save them all till the new dlc dropped thinking it would bump me to about 620 but most of them were 2-3 increase and had several give me gear in the same slot so no increase. So after all the prep I ended up bumping to 608 but with crap weapons and armor with no good perks so not wanting to use all my cores to infuse until I’m about 646 I am stuck right back at having random mixed gear and underpowered weapons I like to use vs the powerful drops that are hand cannons or other weapons I don’t like. As for efficient leveling read up there’s plenty of guides and it helped me a ton. I was going up 3-4 levels a week and after researching I started jumping 7-9 a week. The order in which you do things makes a big difference depending on what your current gear levels are compared to your average level.
