i've been wanting an arpg to unwind with at the end of the day, and remember liking torchlight 2 when i played through as the mage guy. i tried it again recently and realized that every other class plays like rear end, and that it has some other serious problems, but that i like other things the game does. anyone ever modded this, and do you have any recommendations (setting aside, to start, the uninstall mod)

Engie is really fun tbqh. You can be a big melee smasher or pet friender. I used a couple weapon mods and added merchants and poo poo.

Yeah engineer and the Mage were the two less boring classes to play. It would sorta need a total rebalance I think. People say Diablo III was fixed and is really good now, maybe you can just try that.

Fucktard: Mods can't make a bad game good. Even if you can change a games aesthetics and some ancillary systems, you can't change poor core mechanics. Gamer: Cool story, bro!  Now shut the gently caress up and sit down while adults are talking, mmkay?

i upped the unique drop rate, made golden chests always drop uniques, and made certain containers drop appropriate loot (like scroll racks will drop spells instead of junk weapons) i decided to play with the embermage and it's been fun through the first act, although the way that skills work mean that i either had to have points just sitting around not doing anything, or use them on skills i didn't really care about. partway into the second act there's a really strange difficulty spike, where i went from being able to manage my healthbar pretty well to being instantly eviscerated by big packs of enemies, although at least it's harder now.

Play Diablo III on PS4 and wait for a level 10,000 hacker to join your game and power level you to level 2000 so you start dealing 6 million damage a hit and then the game is fun

My problems with the game: - difficulty should be rebalanced, veteran it too easy and elite creates some weird roadblocks where a single enemy causes much more damage than anything else out of the blue and 1-shot you, - mapworks is a brilliant way to add some variety, and I really love how it feels much more like a rogue-like, and the random mix of monsters in each level is great, but the levels it creates are really bad most of the time and there is a huge lost opportunity there: they could make it so that the worst random debuffs could increase drop rate or something but not, it just debuffs you, and it should be unlocked since the beginning, not only after a playtrough, this could be so much better, and I'm not sure how far these can be modded, but either it's not possible or nobody cares, on the other hand there is a ton of mods that adds more drops to insane levels, something that never bothered me in this game, also - in this game many enemies create areas of continuous damage, and bosses have 1-shot moves that are heavily telegraphed, two things that beg for controller support, I feel like torchlight 2 could be such a better game if it was built and balanced with controllers in mind, it's a shame really,

another good one is the mod that makes mega mobs, basically turning the game into Gauntlet, that was badass lol. i had to turn it off once i hit the 2nd area tho because just getting around the map was taking a half hour

i guess i want an arpg that has skill based combat and isn't geared around grinding for random drops. torchlight gets part of the way there, and i was hoping mods would get the final mile, but it seems like that's not the case.

ys is quite possibly exactly what you want OP, specially the bosses, they really need skill to beat

I don't play ARPGs for the skill-based mechanics OP. Although it does take a lot of knowledge & the creativity to use it to do really well in like, Path of Exile for example. Let me know if u find an epic Torchlight 2 mod though because I've never even installed it.

I never tried it but there's a synergies mod that apparently improves a lot of stuff. I liked playing as a fire spec embermage but in the late game it became a bit boring. I still got a lot of hours of fun from it so I can't really complain, when I get a decent PC again I might just play it again.

I think Path of Exile Diablo III and Torchlight 2 are basically interchangeable, you kinda just pick the one you like to look at the best and stick with it.

Diablo III used to be way worse than Torchlight or Path of Exile but Reaperof Souls made it a bit better than either I think.

I used to be confused for a moment whenever people would refer to Path of Exile as PoE because I'd automatically associate it with Portal of Evil (RIP)
