Forced Skill Level Cap

Hey.

Why are Players forced to use 5 Skills with a level cap of 20 each?
It feels like a cage - or D3 - to me.
Why you don’t let Players the choice to pick up just two Skills (for example) but in exchange for that you raise the Level Cap of each Skill?

Because having more nodes on a skill could make it completely overpowered.
This could unbalance the game.

I am not the developer. They must have the headache to balance it.
Don’t set the raised cap to high or put some nodes in it that negate each other.

I just know there is no real build flexibility.
Feels more like D3 than PoE.

For reasons of balance.

Feels more like D3 than PoE.

And is that really a bad thing? This game has more limits than PoE and more complexity than D3. It’s a mix of both which isn’t inherently a negative thing.

And they did, with 5 skill slots and a level 20 skill cap.

No thats not a bad thing, thats just not my thing.
To be honest I see no ‘more complexity’ in character building than in D3 so far.
Maybe its because the beta status (so i made that suggestion) or its the intention of the Game.
As you pointed it out for me thats the Game Intention.

You should really experience the game more and soon you will see, that LE has alot of depth and complexity.

LE is just very easy to pick up and the progression curve is one of the best of any aRPG IMO.

Just because you can’t see the depth at first glance doesn’t mean it isn’t there :smiling_imp:

D3 was so unappealing from a complexity standpoint that I couldn’t even play it. It felt like the game was designed from a standpoint where it plays itself with little player intervention or choice. LE has a rich complexity that it’s hard for new players to grasp. I been playing for years I still find new builds and new interactions everyday. It’s hard for me to understand players saying the opposite.

You don’t have to select or use any of the other skills. There are items you can find with +1 or +2 to the various skills in the game. That is how you can expand them out.
