To the Dev that work on "fixing up" Betrayal league good job!...

... at making it boring nerfed garbage.

It's amazing how you took a mechanic that was fun and after considerble investment of time lead to pretty much a gurenteed boss fight.
Where maybe you could get some decent value.

It could have used some touch ups for qol now its the most avoidible spec on the atlas tree.

I wish I could avoid it, I wish I could just disable those bastards from appearing.

I just wanted the old rewards to be valuable. I wanted to be able to go back to farming It That Fled in research to make flawless breachstones for profit. I wanted GGG to stop making Catarina the only thing worth farming, because I hate having to rebuild the board.

Now all we have are gambling benches and less than a handful of scarabs you can get more of from just running maps.

Set up your board so that Transportation, Fortification, and Intervention safehouses are ready to run.

Then, only Research encounters will spawn (which you can avoid), and the others should've become available again because they won't advance until you do a Safehouse or a Research encounter.

All bars are filling up so slowly now, probably from the lack of point investment in the mechanic.

I used Betrayal during progression and found it to be decent. It's true that a lot of the crafting benches are severely undertuned or straight up pointless though.

One issue/bug however is the reworked Catarina fight. It still has the monsters, the 200% exp modifier but it's considered an arena boss fight and doesn't actually grant exp.

It didn't work that way before. After some time all ready-to-run safehouses reset to ~95% progress.

At least it's no longer mandatory to play. Never liked it. So that's enough for me.

They broke something, however. It shouldn't move another division member into freshly completed safehouse. I just spent some time to put Janus in Research, completed Intervention, and bam, he's now in Intervention for some reason.

Big brain! ty!

Glad I'm not the only one that thought it was lame.
