“It was mentioned to me in passing (that we were removing the league monster bonuses and replacing with just quantity), and I didn’t ask any more questions. “I… didn’t actually understand the impact of the change,” he confessed.
“As the confusion about our motivations has raised a lot of concern with the community, I should have found a way to prioritize writing this post,” he said. Wilson, however, admitted that he wasn’t paying enough attention when he was informed of the changes and apologized for any miscommunication and confusion it might have caused. If the gap were any larger, then it would be less efficient to kill regular monsters and a player should spend all of their time focusing on repeating a small subset of content.”
But the difference should be approximately twice as rewarding. It is also a lot cleaner and far better for performance.”Īs for the content’s overall difficulty, Wilson said that, “It's good for league content to be harder than the base game, and therefore more rewarding. It gives you an opportunity to employ counterplay and for your playskill to actually matter (rather than relying on pure character power). “Fewer, more difficult rare monsters help you pay attention to what is happening, assess it, and act accordingly. “In fights with a lot of Rare monsters on screen, you can't follow what modifiers they have, what skills they're using, and sometimes not even what type of monster they are,” he explained. That being said, Wilson explained that they still want players to pay attention to what they’re doing and employ the right combat tactics instead of just stuttering through hordes of mobs or simply spamming attacks and abilities without thought. All of these things make the game harder in exchange for more and better rewards.” You can trigger additional stacking league content like Delirium. You can play with additional party members. “You can roll your maps to be harder or add sextants to them. “Path of Exile is a game about opting-in to more difficulty in exchange for more rewards,” the producer said. According to Wilson, the changes were made to ensure that the reward system scales appropriately, that players don’t fight too many rare monsters at once, and that the gap between the difficulty and rewards of League and non-League content isn’t too great that it forces players to concentrate on League content alone.
