Well, I wanted to experience the story again, so I started a new class (Sorc) and I realized that I can easily kill everything with just my basic skill. I am now close to Andariel and I am still in no need to drink health potions at all, I even stopped dodging enemy attacks.
Since when did this mode become a walking simulator?
Maybe it would be enough to remove the Cap Stone Dungeons so I could play directly on T3…
Sorcerer is surprisingly powerful. I use incinerate and hydra and even early on it’s incredibly OP. Get the aspects that split incinerate into three and an extra hydra, plus the one for an extra hydra head and you are basically unstoppable.
Power creep has made pretty much everything, except the pit, trivial. While there were always a few exploiters doing crazy damage, the average player power was signifigantly lower when the game launched compared to now, and when power goes up, but everything else stays the same, you get power creep. The only way to fix this is to readjust difficulties across all world tiers, and maybe finally add that 5th world tier for level 100 endgame.
