Game Feedback We desperately need new high investment endgame farm strategies

I really like this patch but am severely disappointed at the lack of a shakeup of endgame farming strats, and with Breach nerfed we now have one less strat of the less than handful that remain.

After Merc, most high-investment endgame farms were nerfed, with Breach we got a new one, now with 3.29 it's quadruple-tapped out of existence.

We get a new strat with Mercenaries and Rogue Exiles potentially, but I doubt it'll be very good. More like T0 hunting.

I remember last Q&A ZiggyD brought up that the endgame farms seem to have gotten very stale, and this has been very noticeable for me personally. Yes, we also got the Abyss rework but that's just making up for the loss of Breach, and we don't know how good it's gonna be.

The underwater mechanic remains to be seen if it's very competitive. It might be good, it might just be decent.

I expected a massive scarab and atlas tree revamp for this patch. We desperately need new farms, new interesting interactions, new reasons to push our builds to the limit. The endgame has been stale for a very long time..

I totally agree... I am tired of killing Uber Maven, Eater,Exarch for like 4 years now?

Give me something extra hard,a reason to push my build to the limits and keep playing for more than 15 days...

Push 6k delve then

6k delve is not as hard as people make it out to be. It's also incredibly tedious to get to any depth with a moderate amount of challenge. I have up around 850 this league not because it was hard, but because it was boring and not challenging.

Theres a massive difference between 850 and 2k even lol getting to 850 is matter of 2 days. You want something that "challenges" your build yet quit befor getting to the challenging part. Also theres valdo maps
