This should be account wide or just scrap it and don't waste dev time on it. We don't need another alt unfriendly system added to the game.
The only way Torghast will be fun is if Powers become fun. If I am never excited about a power dropping then then Torghast fails as a rogue like.
But its not necesary.Actually you can do Thorgast with blinded eyes and using only your bad hand.And they add even more things to do it easier?The only thing wrong with thorgast is the weekly soul cap. Just resolve this, and add to the twisting corridors 30 more layers with 50 levels per layer and will be perfect.
>> Death Deniedweren't they removing the death counter?
I came back to WoW in BFA 8.3 and the Horrific Visions were pretty daunting at first. I barely knew what corruptions were and I only ever killed Alleria or Thrall as my cloak was brand new. As I geared and learned more about things, I was able to take on more of the objectives and bosses. The Talent Tree connected to Visions was by far my favorite thing about them. Being able to track your progress though a meta tree while also gaining power that allows you to be more creative and risky during a run was super fun. Even at a maxed tree, doing a 5 mask run wasn't a cakewalk, but having those extra powers or passives gave you something to fall back on or use as a motivation to go further. Even if this Torghast implementation might be too late for some, I'm excited to have solid progression and something that might make me enjoy it again.
This is sort of embarrassing to revamp a system that was just released, especially when it's already based on things that have already been developed. I used to scoff at people who would complain about paying to play beta but now I kind of understand what they are talking about.
This makes me think of passive trees from other Roguelike games. Hades and the darkness talents comes to mind specifically.
Screw the streak bar and that "empowered" crap...it's just a slightly different time attack mechanic; if I wanted to feel stressed that I'm "not pulling fast enough", I'd go pug a dungeon.
Doubt this will be account-wide but I hope it will be. Primary reason I wanted a way to speed Torghast up was because of alts.Also still annoyed they don't wanna add gear rewards.
Question is in the end what do you get? In Horrific Visions you got upgraded gear, great for working on alts. Again, IMO, another useless system.
So it's Vision 2.0. GREAT /s
