Most annoying node/mechanic in your opinion?

Hobgoblin

I'm curious, what do you guys think is the most annoying node or mechanic to deal with in the game?
I'll go first.. glancing. By far.

SpideyFunko

slashed tires

Deepworld

Most annoying mechanic is the BG crashing

Furrymoosen

My least favorite game mechanic is block. The defender abuses it to a degree that’s just inappropriate at this point.

Garlo

Combat Deja VU *anything*.

Señor Dude

Masochism and No Retreat are pretty annoying. Also All or Nothing.

All Or Nothing and slashed tires

Shiroihara

Any paradox nodes. Thank God we seem to be passed that.

TheSaith

I hate Stun immune and No Retreat nodes

Mackey

I despise any variation of "root"

Why was the paradox hated so much? I rather enjoyed them ... the weapon nodes in act 8 are good but I thought they was too easy, kind of like the EQ class boosting nodes

I didn’t enjoy the buffed based ones because of dex counting as two buffs, but otherwise I agree that I don’t understand the hate. It added a unique mechanic in the game that rewarded skill and attention. I can’t imagine how much easier it would feel to me now with the number being 12 instead 9. I also agree that the weapon mechanic is too easy and to me it made 8.1 feel easier than much of Act 7.

"Protection" of any sort, or any "Degen" node

Some of them were placed on lanes that already had a lot of timers and nodes to watch out for, as well as some tough defenders. So adding paradox on top of that made it stressful

I hate anything unblockable/unstoppable. It’s seems like kabam has no creativity anymore and goes straight for that combo.

also, unlike the Weapon Nodes, I didn't feel that the benefit part was all that great. Weapon nodes however I think swung the needle too far because you had all the power to just ignore them and fight normally but if you did utilize them the benefit was enormous. Paradox nodes were changed and are honestly a lot more tolerable now.

I'd agree with OP that I think Glancing is the most annoying mechanic. Kabam hasn't properly introduced counters to the mechanic so depending on how it's implemented, sometimes there is nothing you can do but deal with it. Kinda odd for something that at this point isn't exactly a niche mechanic.

Whatever node that Squirrel Girl has in TL5 of Date Game. Fury - Unstoppable - Unblockable is no fun, once you are in your corner, say goodbye to your one shot attempt.
Then Falter, I will not Miss that if it is gone tomorrow.

Masochism. Selective Timestream. UGGGGHHHH

World Eater

The “help” button

LordSmasher

That node where you have to SPAM block 100 times to kill the opponent. Like what is the ****?

JMC2007

Unless I have a bleed immune champ, caltrops

BENNYJ

Encroaching stun. I know how to get around it but I just despise it

MasterA

Worst node for me is buffet/ masochism and no retreat

MasterA

Do you bleed and crit me with your best shot are annoying

SirGamesBond

Since everyone gets a lil bit annoyed by something.

Node that mildly annoys me is Tenacity.
Lands a parry:
If its getting shrugged?
Is it not getting shrugged?
Okay it not getting shrugged........
Attack
F's in the chat.

I prefer stun immune fights.
But this half debuff immune tenacity just pokes you... Come attack and test me.

Bit of a fun too tho. Lol

HamoBlamo51

mesmerize, amoured assualt, delirium, Arrogance and all or nothing

Anything that REQUIRES intercepts, because the AI immediately refuses to charge into you, ever.

Sachhyam257

In addition to ones mentioned above;

Heavy hitter - I always think I can counter after the heavy and get clapped. Getting cornered into a heavy spam is the worst.

Spite - annoying in general, but infinitely worse on power gain champs.

Also, do not go gentle. Won't even talk about it, horrible node.

GinjabredMonsta

That node combo they had for the last months side quest event that was bugged
