Development Manifesto - Difficulty Levels in 3.0.0 - Forum

But good that you went back to the original plan. Cruel needs to go. :P I think that was more to do with their recent expansion then future plans. This had to happen at some point.

Act 5 is wonderful news. Less core routine is great. But i wonder how will the resistances change. Will the character fall down to -60% res as soon as he enters the second difficulty? Or will they go down more smooth, lets say -20% in the 4-5 act of the first difficulty? Just curious.	Posted by _TaZaR_#1953 on Oct 8, 2016, 11:37:41 PM Quote this Post
Agree, Act 5 is wonderful news, BUT if we get one skill point for that act, it would be disappoint Settlers master craft service Settlers My IGN TreeOfDead https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2037371 Vouch Settlers veiled crafting all service all crafts mods Settlers SC master craft service Settlers SC craft mod!

Without any changes to the game's structure, the core game would consist of fifteen acts to play through across three difficulty levels before you arrive at the end-game. Clearly, this is too much and would push the end-game out too far. We want to confirm that our plan for 3.0.0 reduces the core game to ten total acts before the end-game. Changes of this nature dramatically alter the levels that maps and other systems start at, so we need Act Five to keep character progression relatively similar. inb4 act5 is 10 quests long with 15 bosses You say that like it is a bad thing. I would be perfectly happy adding a 5th act that extensive and keeping three acts. As long as the levels are adjusted accordingly, it's all good.

Act V 5.1 Trial of Punishing Fire 5.2 Trial of Frozen Frustration 5.3 Trial of Insidious Poison 5.4 ... you get the idea.

I was away from the game for a while, and just came back for the essence season. Maybe I'll stay around for a while to see what you guys make out of act 5 :) Really looking forward to see the 3.0.0!	Posted by Brujah85#7410 on Oct 30, 2016, 3:35:51 PM Quote this Post
