Where do you think the DAIMP sweet spot is?

For me, every stage of progression had its own sweet spot.

You say that but I've seen you one-shot a NM arcane horror  

Well that's kind of encouraging for me - almost half way to making NM easy and HB doable.
Although obviously its the journey as well as the destination

You can solo HB with hipster stats...
Not with any agent, but it is doable with tankier ones.

The funny thing is that even with 700 constitution and 1400 willpower you can die while soloing HB...

170/170/200
IIRC Minous was the one who named them.

Hmm, my sweet spot...
I feel like I kinda found it, (I can go to Perilous with any Lvl 1 agent) but I think I'm gonna keep promoting my agents, till everyone is at 250 missions and then I'll leave them at Lvl 20.

Clearly the sweet spot isn't Threatening...

It isn’t a pointless power creep, it’s working towards being better in a controlled manner. Just like the loot score system. Not being able to show up on your first day and buying $200 worth of platinum and face rolling heartbreaker means long term investments of time and effort, like all good video games.

If you don’t enjoy a grind, this game probably isn’t the best fit for you. Or maybe play in spurts. This is my fall/winter game when I don’t need to mow my lawn every other day because of rain. It’s not often these days a game comes around that can keep you busy with content or a grind that takes time to accomplish.

Due to having really bad internet, I was unable to play MP until just over a month ago. However, I did play SP a lot. I played on NM with trials on, knew the game inside and out and figured I did everything I could possibly do with the game. When I started MP, I thought my SP experience would make starting out on Routine not nearly as difficult as it proved to be.

I like the challenge and pushing myself. In SP, I almost never played warriors, especially 2H ones. Yet in MP I find myself doing that, and doing that a lot. I've also learned other ways to do things that I'd like to try out in SP, as I always tended to go with the same builds for my mages and rogues. Right now, it's a renewed feeling of having to work towards something and feeling good when I accomplish it.

I realize the MP system is not everybody's thing. I was frustrated in the beginning because I didn't know anybody to play with and wasn't yet comfortable with trying a PUG, but I soon got over that. I have a long way to go but I really don't mind.  I'm enjoying the journey so far.
