Steelmage tries the HARDEST PoE mode in RUTHLESS

Steelmage enters the most restrictive mode Path of Exile has seen to date. This alpha preview of the mode has an extremely restrictive ruleset for only the most hardcore of participants.

I'm so glad I can just watch 10 minutes here and there to see ruthless progression and don't have to force myself through it.

[@Hooga89]

What progression? lol.

[@divinityai]

This gamemode is for people that don't force themselves. For you it's better to play trade league

[@elarivn2384]

This mode makes the campaign part of the game again. Not just a chore to complete

[@swiftbow2110]

Playing hard mode reveals what we already know about the base campaign… it’s really good.

[@CJ00014]

Looks great, reminds me of Diablo 2

PainArrive a belt with 16% rez gonna feel amazing to upgrade to in yellow maps

cant beat a bit of Gaunter O Dimm music

[@John_Doe13]

Not the "hardest" of modes, if anything it's not even harder than any gauntlet. Slogfest mode though? Sure. Campaign feels 2x slower but then suddenly maps have less pack size (maps don't get pack size, just quant) and that's a big issue in normal when you're trying to complete yellow/red maps and get overwhelmed by mobs. Not the case in ruthless.

This is how GGG's plans to make loot meaningful. Just look at that smile whenever there is a magic or rare drop.

[@davimelo3748]

well i want to see they sustain a company and servers with less players

[@ozbezarius922]

@@davimelo3748 You mean without casuals? Yea man , casuals and cry babies this days are taking like 90% of all player base. Sad times.

[@KingJerbear]

This is the reason why Diablo 2 is still so fun for me to this day, I could find a random magic ring on the ground that rolls MF prefix/suffix and it's got more magic find than any other ring in the game. In modern PoE that shit is filtered out halfway thru act 1. I'm all about Ruthless mode

[@Hooga89]

@@ozbezarius922 You don't have to play ruthless to not be a casual r*tard. SSFHC and HC trade still exist, they are not "casual." But keep making sh*t up.

@@Hooga89 Hmm, i think you didnt understand correctly what was my answer and what dude said. If you interested, try to understand it. But at least you tried , you know.

[@nofiox31]

can someone farm oni goroshi in ruthless and tell me how it goes?

[@JaLLeYao]

It's not possible. They have disabled the ability to farm it.

[@nofiox31]

@@JaLLeYao what the heck thats my favourite item

[@mwhighlander]

​@@nofiox31 it would defeat the purpose of the limited gem/item drops. The entire purpose is to massively slow down and reduce the power of the player by restricting upgrades making the game harder and slower.

[@sanjayaabeysinghe91]

how to play this mode?

[@adamtajti8419]

It's in closed alpha. We need to wait

[@sanjayaabeysinghe91]

@@adamtajti8419 thanks

[@Sherudons]

Not wrong that ruthless won't be for everyone, the 10 people who absolutely need daddy to acknowledge them per say.

[@Jgtack]

Looks like hardcore with even more logout macro. Loot just looks like kalandra league though lol

[@charlespanache7047]

Imo it's not "HC" without a logout timer. Pretty chicken sh** way to play when you can instantly logout the second you get scared.

[@Jgtack]

@@charlespanache7047 HC is balanced around logout macro so guess thats that

[@AlcoholAndLAG]

Delete that rs3 icon lol osrs is all you need
