I hate the plains of strife. Doesn’t matter what kind of character I’m playing, it’s never fun. I may or may not clear any given zone at this point but PoS is always a sprint to find the chaos rift then get to the next riftgate as quickly as possible.
I don’t mind Aetherial areas generally, just this one. Something about that particular monster mix is just really unpleasant.
Anyone else with me on this one? Or is there some other area that you always skip, or wish you could?
Yup…the only area in the game where I go ughhhh I have to run through this shit again? I like to farm/grind all over the map and this is literally the only area I go through for the campaign and never return to ever
Plains of Strife is one of my favourite areas in the game. At that point, the mob density is really high and your build should have an arsenal to deal with the enemies. Blood, shit, spit and ass goes flying everywhere … it’s fun.
Areas like the immolation though can be a bit annoying. As a map clearer “Burwitch Outskirts” is definitely my least favourite area. There’s just so much to cover.
Conflagration, no doubt. The safe areas are a pain in the ass to get to and have an entrance of about 10px, and half the time you get through a stretch of ground fuckery only to get gibbed by a dozen mobs with guns. It’s screamingly irritating and the worst part is how often I have to just leave a shard to rot because going to actually pick it up and run back to safety is a fatal error.
Immolation for sure… Just getting there is a pain in the ass. Melee characters have a horrible time there with stuff that can shoot at you with impunity because they’re standing on green mats.
Immolation for sure. I ran it only once and was very disappointed, the design is generic and looks like a poor mix between Jagged Wastes and Conflagration (which i like). not what i expected for the final quest of the Black Legion
in the other hand like Duck_King i like Plains of Strife, except for the mini-Amalgamation which takes hours to kill :mad: perhaps because i often find sweet loot here (and there’s an access to Immortal Throne with that)
Bastion of Chaos for me. I find the Ch’thonic obsidian environment to be bland and obsidian enemies are just a chore to kill. Shar’Zuul is also an ass, and I’ve encountered invisible barriers multiple times which prevented me from accessing the treasure room after killing Shar’Zuul. It all just soured my experience of the BoC
Edit: Add any area that spawns Aetherial amalgamations and terraformers to the list. They take forever to kill and they offer absolutely no reward
2nd half of act 2 after undercity. Soooooo much running around and boring content you cannot pass to get to homestead. I want to rip my eyes out. Please put a freaking portal inside first level SoT as well.
Conflagration, Immolation, Hargate’s Laboratory… All grounds/floors of % damage (aether, poison).
I only merely run and it is a place which is not interesting at all.
