Man i don't know what is it but this seasonal gaming stuff is straight up pain in the ass, getting randomly 1 shotted by mobs that are below your level and or 1-2 lvls above you its not fun....If you are not playing a pet build there is aint no way you are progressing on hardcore..
@@Rsnoomak I am not sure whats going on but when i play the HC veteran version of the base game i can beat all the content with no problem with the mode tho in the first act i feel every mob can 1 shot me and in the dlc act everything was 5-6 levels above me at all times....
The season act and its monsters on their own aren't really much harder than the Forgotten Gods Expansion, but ofc the ghost ambushes on top and some of the progression changes make the game as a whole harder but also easier at the same time depending on how you use the seasonal tools. In the end new content imo always is a little harder at first since you have to get used to it and learn it first compared to older content.
@@rektbyprotoss i havent played the game since the forgotten sands expansion so around 1.2 i guess a lot of things changed and the game cannot be shit stomped on normal veteran anymore hahaha not especially on HC haha also i must admit the ambush ghost suck so much because they can spawn on top of you and completely block you from moving i lost 2 characters due to that...
@@Riftmaker17 The base game changed quite a bit since 2019. While powercreep for the player made the game generally a bit easier, Veteran was made harder and Sunder and Evade were added. Sunder is an offensive tool for enemys debuffing you to take more dmg with the only counterplay being not getting hit by the sundering ability or playing more carefully while being sundered. Evade is a great defensive tool for the player, being able to quickly reposition while having invulnerability frames like in dark souls. I'd dare to say that if you try to play the game the same way as in 2019, it definitely feels harder, but if you adapt to the new tools, it's arguably easier. Also...you can just skip Veteran and Elite and just play normal -> ultimate.

I beat the content in every league on HC alongside with another 50 players may be and I never used pet builds
