Announcements - Ultimatum League: Creating the Trialmaster - Forum

Probably cool boss and all, then why the synthesis cortex spawn rate failure again? I have seen him exactly once so far yesterday on my 673rd map in my 208th hour. Fine? Oh, and failed all conditionals of course being able to see nothing what is going on in the arena. And not to forget the all time great random loot, an elder map for 9th wave, a lure for 10th wave.... Spoiler All-time non-streamer luckless dropless rewardless tons-of-time-playing non-TFT-er 100% solo player. So, it just turns out, we were lied to for years with the promises of a two-storied one PoE 4.0. All these worse and worse beta leagues, all these braindead changes, all lead to this.

Its like the cheap version of last league..with a massive imbalanced.. So the real league seems more about the massive re balance then the "Taskmaster"..	Posted by Griminc on May 3, 2021, 3:04:17 AM Quote this Post
On the positive side, I LOVE the trialmaster character and the voicelines. Very well done. I am also intrigued by the 'chaos' entity. I can see it be used again at a later time, maybe even the catalyst for transition to poe2. Good writing guys.	Posted by Wreakorofhavoc on May 3, 2021, 3:25:38 AM Quote this Post
Yo i work a lot. And iam not even going to think about it. Stupid design. Also stuck on maps as always. Atlas progression still clunky af.	Posted by Rekill on May 3, 2021, 3:29:54 AM Quote this Post

Problem in the fact that after a few times of attention to Trialmaster - you still playing in action RPG that massively focused to RNG in all possible ways. It's not a story game, it's not a visual novell, it's even not a quest. This game where you kill as much monsters as possible as fast as possible and hope that something really good dropped at the end... finally. And at this point - Trialmaster and whole Ultimatum is failed. Risk do nothing with reward in that encounters, because risk present in every of them, but reward is rare. Also how good are you, how much ultimatums you cleared without stop or die, how dangerous mod you choose - it's seems that this things does nothing to escalate your reward. And the rotten cherry on that cake is boss spawn rate. Nobody cares how good or bad this fight, how much work GGG put into mechanics (or not), if nobody actually seen him.

Thank god they are optional How can you even spawn grove now?... never done that boss. Heard she drops shit though. So doesn't really matter. But still a shame...

his spawn chance is awful - encountered him 3 times - but rewards were beyond garbage - stacked decks, yellow(!) map(he spawned at t16 map btw) and several exalted shards... add that his unique helmet is worth nothing... 3.13 Was the best league ever! 3.18 Rest in peace my beloved recombinators, I'm gonna miss you...
