Tried playing more of season one in this after taking a break. I've come to the conclusion it's the character class that's ruined my enjoyment. When the game first came out I went for necromancer. Really enjoyed how the build came together, nothing ever felt too easy or hard. When season one started I went for a Rogue build and after getting to level 23 with it I still don't like it. It just seems so underpowered and the lack of energy during mob fights is what gets me killed. I'm sure in my necro build minions were a lot easier to kill than now.
It's a real shame because I really liked this game before season one but my mistake has meant I'll probably leave it now until season 2. I hope you have to start a new character when that starts too.
