The big issue that we faced when the end-game was in the poe currency state was staleness of the final locations. Players who wanted to find the very best items and make the maximum experience were made to repeat the same few areas over and over. While the arbitrary levels were doing a lot of work, we had a lot more variety. From the 0.8.6 patch, we included a special end-game called the Maelstrom of Chaos. This was a set of sequential regions that sprucing up in trouble degree, with random critters and arbitrary tilesets (in the variety of eight).
