Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

Thats lame, for once I was able to craft good gear w/ out having to pay an arm and a leg

"

Players also expressed frustration that the most effective way to get the best items in Path of Exile was to join a discord channel and try to trade for these incredibly crucial crafts.

Finally they fkn acknowledged it.

Why?
I don't get many exalts a league, and you're telling me how exciting it is to use them?
Again, only pro crafters of this game will be able to use the system, while we'll be struggling to get a decent item.

You're only making the gap bigger, and make it harder for the non-pros to play this game... And what about the SSF?

You nerf the best mechanic in the game, well, time to skip the next league

Nerfing harvest is bad. It's ideal in current state. Yes, you can get ideal items but you need to waste ton of currency (300+ exalts) to make ones (I'm talking about mirror tier items with all best t1 mods).

To resolve problem with discord being the only place where one can safely trade harvest crafts GGG could add same mechanic as beast trade so players can put their crafts into orbs and sell them.

Some mods that had overly-deterministic behaviour have been removed. These include all annulment mods

So, getting the perfect prefex for the eclipse staff base I have is now going to take, mathematically *checks Annul Bad Mod in craft of exile* ~28 times the number of exalted orbs that I've ever found or traded for in the two and a half years I've been playing, instead of just ~20 times as many.

Boy, you sure avoided making things too easy there.

Time to skip next league.

GGG, Why you even name throwing exalts a "craft"? Are you really playing your own game? You want to get meta-craft back to make small number of crafters rich as hell again.

I do not agree for these changes and I hope that you will review this case again.

You look only on people who spent whole days on playing PoE, what about other players? It is game and people should feel relaxed and not triggered by another stupid mod slammed by exalt.

I will say it once again, slamming exalts is not crafting, its gambling!

e wanted to experiment with a system that allowed you to craft items while levelling (using the equivalent of powerful currency like Exalted Orbs), so that players could get the experience of using valuable currency items without feeling bad that they were missing out on future value. Our goal was to make a system that was so attractive that players would try to improve their items by throwing a few crafts at them in almost every area that they play.

[Removed by Support] are you talkign about the same game im palying? [Removed by Support] so leveling system???? wich only happends in maps???? how is that leveling system and not endgame system , i think you are just very lost right now , better remove it , [Removed by Support]

the entire rest of Path of Exile's crafting system is somewhat redundant with Harvest Crafting in its current form. While we are glad we tried the experiment of keeping all the crafts and balancing by rarity, it's unfortunately going to have to change.

yall knew harvest would ruin poe yet you released it! its the most anti-poe thing you could put into the game. and fuck me, dont pull this shit about experimenting, it was literally in the game for 3 months before you put it back in.

just get rid of harvest and put people out of their misery
