Breach Encounters and Monsters in Maps

lvl 95, drops are not bad, problem is there is no fun mechanic to farm atm. Breach is cool, tree is cool, but all top end farming strategies were gutted and i dont know what to do with my 150 divine char.

I def noticed the shrine one, haven't done essence to see but good to know that my personal notice with these was included to be correct
Will you consider giving us some agency on scaling the density of the "traditional" breach encounters?

"two specific methods of adding monsters to maps"
Dear GGG. For your reseacrh I hardly recommend you just run 1 burial chamber with breach and 1 without and then calculate how much monsters in each case. IDK how u can say about some specific methods while about half of natural spawned monsters just cut out of map.
I'm having a great time, don't change too much please!

Yeah, this is not an issue with monsters or monster drops.

It's trade turning formerly loot items into non-loot items (or less exciting semi-loot items) because of the undercutting war going on.

Breach isn't changing drop rates of Guardian/Elderslayer/Synth maps, and all are 70-85% cheaper than last league because async made undercutting so much stronger.

Same is happening with uniques that are still good and don't really compete with league mechanic items like Void Battery. Less drop than last league (no 50% quant bonus from mercs) but STILL the market is so flooded they have crashed in value completely. The item is still dropping, it just no longer is loot.

This loot situation is the new normal unless/until trade is reverted.


monters dont drop currency ... it has nothing with trade ... stop that.


Drops of currency are the same as in Settlers league except for the small number of players already in 16.5s and 17s (there were a few nerfs at them). Same currency players not partied with a Merc got last league.

As long as async is in present form - get used to this feeling of loot. Even if GGG added 50% more currency to match the mercenary experiecne it'll just result in mid currencies other than chaos collapsing in value and you'll have the same buying power.

Trade is PVP and buffing your opponents and yourself is not a buff in PVP.



"Drops of currency are the same as in Settlers league"

This can be disproven in 2 seconds by reading the patch notes. They got rid of a lot of map effect nodes on the tree this league. Please at least try to be informed before telling people they are wrong. That is not ok.
Who cares about couple monsters. Even if they exist it will not add fun/loot back. Nothing to do in Endgame right now with 2 farming strategies alive
