imo the only thing which needs to change is how /set easy works

and dont increase it after lvl 70+


make it always 1 ep // or 1-2 reg and NEVER 3 reg mobs at all lvls, because the problem starts with 3 regular mods






and if you say buff melee i say buff off cast and make the abilities work for other chars and change the placeholder which we currently have

*Make /set easy 1 the default and work passed 70+

If you want more of a challenge or the game is too easy then you still have the option to disable it /set easy 0, for 3reg mobs/3 ep spawns

I feel like this is harmless enough.
The "pro" players already know how to disable easy mode - while the newer players aren't restricted to getting smashed while learning how to climb, buying equipment, & figuring out what abilities to use.

(Yes I know easy mode is on for a new characters FIRST MQ)

This is the way I see it with the classes:

Headhunter is worse than Warlock, but Alchemist is even worse than HH.

HOWEVER,

When you unlock HH, you get one step closer to resetting the ladder. Then you unlock Alchemist. Now you have the power to reset the ladder!

So, of course it makes sense (to me anyway) that it should get harder and harder as you get closer to resetting the ladder.

I vote No. The classes are fine. I am looking forward to unlocking HH, hopefully soon. I'm very used to regening anyway (and I still regen with my warlock; it's taking even longer than it did with ninja, so... idk how you guys manage to play a lock with zero regen. I guess my gear is just that bad lol)



It’s bc you use tank robes, whereas everyone else (including hc locks cheeya and Jacob) use int robes. You’re missing out on a ton of damage by doing this and your heal is more than enough to keep you alive. Just stat like 60-70 vit and get a 40+int robe and you’ll be trucking a lot faster

Lol shouldnt even respond to this. Theres a reason you offcast/cast only, well probably a few reason. But the main one is probably BECAUSE MELEE SUCKS compared to casting. Even off casting in a group is generally cheaper to gear and more effective(at higher lvl when it matters). But yea I agree let's buff off casting so theres 0 reason to melee and I can shrine my melee gear and only cast since castings already way better due to higher base crit rate and ability to heal yourself.

Set easy 1 working past 71 on regular mobs is also a great idea, thanks all

no the reason is simple .... i cast on all games i play, sorceress lighting in d2 // wizard in d3 // pulse or arc in poe // light in ls i simply never enjoyed melee in every game and everytime i try it i dont like it at all



/E: and i already casted back in arena days on all chars, even too it sucked hard back then... casted off cast were multi cast was possible on every cast with crtl + click and i cast now :)

Won't lie... I feel like we should take away easy mode. People are asking for easy mode to be changed so that the game gets easier in solo mode. Game was easy enough already before people could use it. It's a luxury to be able to select 1 max EP at lvl 100+ on an unlocked class. We don't need to buff something that's designed to help new players so that geared people don't need to learn how to use skills or think about strategy while soloing :P

If you had an easy monster before, save some ability charges. Save the easiest monster from a 3 monster wave and use it to heal up. I know your gear isn't that great, but there should also be a reason why you want to upgrade your gear. Not just cuz you wanna shave off 1 minute from whistling mindlessly :P

There is a reason i want to upgrade. So i can solo and mq myself. Id say solo and find items, but we all know that doesnt happen lol. I use abilities as i need them. So far the only char ive used that i dont have any issues with is my warlock. Which i still have to regen mana, but thats to be expected. I collect shriners and have decent enough mana regen gear to get by. The staff im using isnt mine, and my highest EE item is only like 136 lol and thats my mq lightning

The problem isnt the easy mode, the problem is when you try to solo levels 71+ with events that makes it harder then the "normal game" (which is like 70% of the events these days lol) easy mode doesnt take in consideration that the game can be 90% harder with events thats why people are asking for a change to it
