Temporal Chains Waystone Mod

For heaven's sake, PLEASE remove the Temporal Chains map mods.

Who came up with this idea?

40% slow (not just movement speed—everything), circles spawning every few seconds, and once you get hit with the debuff the first time, the chances of getting hit again go up massively.

It’s impossible to get out of the circle with 40% slow if you're standing in the middle or if the shortest path out is blocked.

PLEASE fix this garbage. It’s just frustrating and makes maps take twice as long.

Either reduce the strength of the slow, give us a few seconds of immunity after getting the debuff, make the circles spawn less frequently—or better yet, just remove the mod from the game entirely.

It’s absolutely no fun to deal with, and I can’t just throw away every map that rolls this mod.

Normally, I don't make these kinds of "change your game so it's fun for me" posts, but this is honestly the most frustrating thing I've ever experienced in any ARPG.

Thanks.

There are many ways to mitigate it.

Does it make temporal chains fun? They are obnoxious in and of themselves.

Let's make one thing clear. I never said I liked it. LOL

GGG should revert the Map Curses. The game doesn't need any more unoptimized terrain effects clogging up the screen.

Just dont run them, problem solved.

There are many mods that I personally dont run each season I play. And there is nothing wrong with that. There is so much to pick from.

Im not sure why this is a major issue. The game is still a working progress and i am sure they will see that its not liked because no one is running them (including myself) and revert it.

It's an issue because they took a mechanic that was performance-neutral and made it a detriment that now competes with the rest of their unoptimized assets for space on the screen.

Whatever the debuff does is irrelevant to the fact that this is bad design.

I agree. There are things in the game that don't suit a specific style of character, and those can be avoided based on style and preference. But to have a mod that everyone (with the exception of those immune to curses) hates and will avoid is pretty pointless. There are many other ways to hamper a player; the question of "is this a fun obstacle for the player to tackle?" should always be asked.

FUN per hour

Charms...

Temporal chain affix = save for reforge. The only time I will entertain a temporal waystone is if it happens to roll with an insane rarity/quant combo or high xp boost. Same thing I did with burning ground affix.
