1 Death per Map is unfun

The new system where you only get 1 death per map is unfun.

It is no longer possible to "relax" and do maps.

It is the single biggest factor that is destroying longevity of the endgame for me.

Every time I die in a map, I am exceptionally frustrated, since white monsters can 1 shot me from off screen, that I log off and stop playing.


Please revert to the PoE1 system of 6 portals/deaths per map.

I just got to endgame maps yesterday. I whole heartedly agree with you. It's made me stop playing today as endgame is just not fun at all currently. I had an absolute blast for 50-60 hours through your campaign, thank you GGG. Once endgame mapping is fixed, I'll be back!

yea iv just stopped playing. trying to sustain maps is a terrible experience,
even if you don't die and clear full maps. there's just not enough.

I finished the t3 waystones quest line without dyeing and completely ran out of maps. so im forced to stop playing the game

no maps = no end game
no end game = no reason to play

I agree, you can no longer chillax in maps, delete everything in sight and guarantee success. This will divide the playerbase into those who love it, like myself, and those who hate it and leave (and that's fine).

There is a constant tension and we love it. Every big kill, every near death experience feels that much more rewarding (even if loot is shit).

The only advice I can offer, if you still feel like continuing, is: If you're getting constantly one shotted by white mobs, you need to review your gear. Find/buy better gear with more life, defenses, resists, using content that you can handle.

Doryani sells waystones for gold.

If you ran out of waystones without dying, that's weird, but did you run them as white or magic? I think you're supposed to run them as blue to sustain, and starting with T6 as yellow. Do you have extra waystone drops in the atlas passive tree? I'm up to T5 now and so far getting more than I know what to do with.

as it stands now 1 death per map is an absolute game ender. this needs to be changed. you want to learn a map mechanic? you get no opportunity, multiple yellow mobs or just a single yellow mob with the "right" affixes spawns? have fun getting a new map.

I agree. I understand this is early access and things will change, but going with this mechanic for maps is just terrible. It's amplified when playing in a group and you take a accidental death and you only option is just to sit and wait. The game has everything to be great, but I am not sure how much longer I can play like this. I can't gain maps at all. Have atlas passive set for waystones, run only blues and yellows and average about 0.25 waystones per run. Add that onto the one death and it's over. I don't have the luck like others do to afford even one loss of a map, otherwise I am back to tier 1.
