The fact that it will need ongoing support and balance leaves two options: 1.) The devs whose "passion project" this is will be expected to use non-company time to continue the support and balance or. 2.) GGG will have to begin using company time and development resources to support and balance it. Differences between regular game and ruthless. I just started my first ruthless ssf char in standard. I'm going for a heavy strike jugg. I want to know what differences are between the 2 modes. I know vendoring rares give you transmute shards and chromie recipe is the same. Npcs don't sell gems and movement skill not going over terrain is dumb. You're 2 main mandatory takes are: Help Kraitlyn for 6% MS. Versatility for +5%. Thats all you get on left side, and you 100% want both because you have such low MS, +11% is pretty huge for ruthless and mandatory to not get shit on during some endgame fights (exarch ball phase, eater ball phase, infinite hunger, etc) Other than that, most folks there are people on the ruthless ladder with upto ~200 delve depth so i reckon it's not disabled on this mode, though i have no clue if there is difference in unlocking it there. due to the small player base, you will probably get an answer faster just asking in ruthless global chat. Thank you for the answer. The point isn't to do everything you could do with modern tech, the point is to enjoy the process, the struggle, of achieving things without it. Ruthless is like that. In the main game mode, if you're an experienced player, the "real" game doesn't start till red maps, everything up to that is a faceroll. Utility Flasks can not gain charges while active and have lower duration than they do in regular Path of Exile. Enkindling Orbs and Instilling Orbs do not exist in Ruthless. Obviously, Pathfinder (no changes withstanding) will shine when it comes to utility flasks, which are massive power-spikes. Jmxw. Elemental casters with 1h+shield built out of a Templar would be a good example. Safeguard, Faith and Steel, Holy Dominion, and Sanctuary all within close proximity. Wearing a white Archon shield and adding Purity of Elements on top gets you to 53% all res without any other gear on. Ruthless is suposed to be a casual game-style where there is no endgame or need for path of building, don't try to change it. RenegatedEvrae. • 1 yr. ago. Ruthless is meant to be a hard version of the default game, has the same complexity than the normal game, with the difference that on Ruthless you will have it harder to advance since you Love Ruthless, could maybe use the crafting bench cause it would be nice and the bench is a fun mechanic, however Einhar being able to imbue flasks is a nice touch. Other then that I think the two things that should be in Ruthless is Divination cards (some removed if necessary). The biggest thing I feel Ruthless needs is an increased chance for Ruthless will have absolutely zero effect on the core game because they're designing the core game first and then adding Ruthless on top. So I'm expecting zero actual changes on that front to happen to the core game, and if there are big changes, they will have nothing to do with Ruthless being added and would have come anyway. You're 2 main mandatory takes are: Help Kraitlyn for 6% MS. Versatility for +5%. Thats all you get on left side, and you 100% want both because you have such low MS, +11% is pretty huge for ruthless and mandatory to not get shit on during some endgame fights (exarch ball phase, eater ball phase, infinite hunger, etc) Other than that, most folks Bleed (duelist) + ruthless (marauder) for phys/melee. Chance to poison (shadow) + ruthless or bleed for minions. Etc. But wont be surprised if they stripped the starting supports since they’re not needed for hillock and allow to get a 3L out the gate like this. They should get rid of them for this game mode.
