Woah 2009 to 2021 back again.
Been playing seasonal and I did get hooked again. there was a few wars and did some raiding. I spent far too long in one zone getting from 40-60 overgrowth. I was a month late in joining but I did my best to rush up and catch up to my friends. so I was behind the level curve.
-Bounties-
Neat system however if you are not caught up to the pack your friends would be doing T2 bounties while you still are on T1 bounties. then just even next week they'd be on T3 bounties. I like how there is a bit of a story behind the bounty making it feel interesting. The T1 sorc's lab we didnt expect it to be in the maze for a T1 bounty considering t1 starts at 47 and sorc lab maze would be wild for a 47. we of course are plenty higher leveled now,
Also it ends there, after the daily bounty and if you missed the gap to t2. let people catch up for 1 point a day for a raid target?
-New area experience-
Very good change, does encourage exploring. I think this could go another step? Killing a mob type you haven't before should also be additional experience. Somewhat of a bestiary feel.
-Maps-
I see maps have not changed much. I think there is still a lot of opportunity here, get everyone to an outdoor zone. open 3-4 maps in a night. I wasn't able to get in on any map action as my current guild is trying to tier up. Maps need to be easier to open, instead of just being vendored. It is really great to walk through a zone and see a large group doing maps when you are just out for a run.
Now I want to suggest a path of exile map Atlas, get pieces of maps, trade them, combine them, the zone would have bonuses and penalties. minus heals, or additional ice damage.
x2 experience, or x3 plat drops. have it be a timed temporary zone.
-World events-
There are cool unique calendar days and some curses. I think there needs to be Worldwide events. bigger than wars. bigger than raids. Im talking...... SUMMON EVERYONE NOW....
Yeah... everyone summoned to an area, arena of gods. have this once a year? im talking truly epic. Have the gear be written in Egyptian language, and very very over tuned. As we know there are gods in the game of course and warring factions.
On a final note, I think seasonal characters should have a permanent 50% exp bonus. What is to keep me playing when the season is over when I can just hop on my old character with 600 aa's?
