insane i would never make a iron man, ive seen some friends in game who get like 2200= total and get bored because maxing out the last lvls is hard, because it becomes 700k to 1.1mil exp per level. So they make a iron man and usually those end up around 1700-2k total levels. ME personally i couldn't do it requires way to much energy and time.
@joeyschmidt7546 Жыл бұрын
@@grandcanyon2 i agree. the game to max a normal account is insane. The only way to accomplish this is to put more real life hours than your irl job. most adults do not have 40 hours plus a week for a video game. but thats what it takes if you want max gear or levels in this game. and years of 40 hour weeks grinding to get that. also the drop tables are insane rare. so the only way to get to the top of this game is to devote years and thousands upon thousands of hours. its kind of absurd when you think about it. Im working on 2000 total and have over 1500 hours and not even half way in xp to all 99s

maxing is not even a thought or goal for me on my ironman, I just love going through the content I would never touch on my main. Its very satisfying to look at my gear tab, every item has a story/grind behind it
@leonard973 Жыл бұрын
All the things you brought up are what make ironman fun for me. Like, what even is the point of doing ToB if you could just buy all the items instead? Ironman forces you to learn the game on a much deeper level and there are not that many drystreak grinds that are really demoralizing. I think the only one that is really bad is the dragon warhammer because defence reduction is so important for your lategame progress. Apart from that there's no overly brutal grinds until you get to the very endgame.

One reason, and the only reason you shouldn't play as a ironman. You don't need a stupid title to play or have fun in a game. You can have a normal account and play as a ironman if you wish. The only reason people play ironman is for the title. Look at me, look at me!
@nudfik Жыл бұрын
There is some truth to that. I actually have a bronzeman account, but it doesn't give the same sense of achievement, since you know it's "unofficial" and you can just turn it off at any time. I guess permanent ironman is the way to go for that feeling.

As someone who PVPs on iron, your first point is kinda wrong. It used to be pretty bad before lootkeys, but with loot keys enabled (on your iron) you still get the keys you just can't claim them. Once you've got some loot keys from pking, you can kill your iron on a main and get all the lootk keys and cash them in.
@nudfik Жыл бұрын
But... why wouldn't you just PvP on the main - the potential of losing gear that's much harder to make on the ironman doesn't seem worth it to me.

Grind for supplies is what gets my juices flowing.. I looove the satisfaction of stockpiling steelbars to then turn them to delicious cannonballs. Love picking up that diamon on the slayertask, gonna make 12 fine ass bolts. Ironman vs regular cant really be compared in my opinion. I have a 2040 total iron and a 1800 regular.. iron just tickles me different, although dry-streaks arent fun. I think for stuff like bloodshard, DWH, zenyte shards there should be a mechanic like vorkath with a guaranteed drop at the droprate.. It ofcause makes a problem with drop trades, I suppose... but is it really?.. I just hate feeling I compete with bots when I myself am a university student pulling brainless hours for a red hammer - Great vid tho

And the whole going to get your own supplies is the whole thing of high end ironmen in my opinion its way better to step aside do some supplies vs a main that goes to kill the same boss over and over just to buy better gear to beat that boss quicker?
