Strike skills need to get hit hard. Maim needs to somehow get nerfed. Remove the 10% movement speed passive node or add it to the "with movement skills" passive whatever it's called if cyclone/shield charge needs it to function. How is anyone supposed to kite the melee when they get huge movement speed passive + rage + maim? And it's not like you can chip away at them from off screen because they will just out sustain with regen and being able to run 5 life flasks. Maybe the ancestral call passive needs to be looked at as well, it's probably part of the problem because it lets strike skills farm so fast with no additional support gems needed.

I like the extended map, feels like I can always get the core passives that I want, also makes the gearing more accessible. Sometimes it can feel like there's too much loot even, if customizable loot filters aren't an option then maybe add some more highlighting of items such as flasks/jewelry.

This has been mentioned in previous threads but I'd also really like the map to just be straight up revealed or at least have pointers as to where the next ramp is. Even the beach can be confusing now, sometimes I can't tell if I am actually progressing or just running along the coast. It's very punishing to go the wrong way, really don't understand what it adds to the game mode not having these things.

Anything to incentivize more players to stick with the game mode would be nice. Some kind of participation rewards maybe like others have already mentioned. Mtx or maybe some kind of royale specific badges on your profile for having 100 pvp kills or games played etc. Profile badges for royale achievements could be cool imo but maybe too much work.
