Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

Thanks for wiping engame content. As casual player - it was my 1st league where i playing for 2 months and can do it even more coz i wanna to start t4t when i get bored. now i gonna play for 3 weeks as i did before and skip leagues coz i have better things to do.

Is harvest crafting too strong and by far superior to any other crafting methods in the game? Absolutely

Should have harvest been reintroduced in 3.13? No

Reddit mad? REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Remove harvest altogether and revert the fossil crafting nerfs.

Just make the crafts tradeable (Like Beasts)

Actually very good idéa. I like it.

omg yes please. And it would be so easy to implement.

to leave it like this, it is better to remove it and not have the possibility, that something will come out of you that you are not going to waste your time doing, the harvest died

Dear GGG,

Please dont change harvest

You do understand that people with full-time jobs keep playing poe because of Harvest right? And you do understand people with full-time jobs buy mtx and packs and support new content and better optimisations right? It is in no one intrrest to make crafting harder, it will only lose players.

They always does these things. Make the league great then kill it next league.

I alredy posted my discontent about the stupid changes in this thread once.

Simply have to post again. I am furious.

I have played quite a lot, I am not proud to announce I have played a single video game for 12.000 hours. Been great though :-)

I have severed multiple nerfs to builds that I really enjoyed playing, but I always figured ok it was 2 strong anyway, let's play with the skill gems GGG introduce next, they tend to be super strong also. And there go 7 years of poe in a circle. Building, Nerfing, Building Nerfing etc.


I really really really like harvest and for once I am not ok with the nerf. - Why in the world do you for once not ENHANCE what people really like, Instead of DESTROYING It. What is wrong with people having a great time making great gear.


Not going to throw stupid lines about me quitting the game - not going to happen, and I probably also buy the next supporter packs if they are good looking.

I am just so disappointed. It will be hard for me to replace Harvest. - it will probably be replaced with more work and less poe.

Even the crafts we made quite rare felt pretty common when the entire community was pooling them together and using them on the right items.

It is clear that trading Harvest crafts is the problem.

Finding a solution for that would be much better.

I was SUPER excited when you introduced Harvest to core game.

But my excitement WILTED (pun intended) after first ~10 groves.
For regular players it's nothing more than ridiculous down time, interrupting regular fun with the game.

I HATE IT, when Grove shows up, forcing me to stop playing the game and starting 10 minutes chore of spamming crafts on a pile of in-progress items or map/currency/delve/fragment/etc exchanges. Sure, I can just skip it, but that feels even worse, like leaving an exalted orb on the ground.

On top of that we have that situation, where we - regular players - are just cheap workforce for that 0.1% of top players using us as a farmers for getting their crafts on TFT discord. Sure, again, we can just skip it - but imagine that after selling several crafts, in 2 days I earned more currency than during my whole previous playtime in Path of Exile...

THAT is the problem, not the power or determinism of crafts...
Harvest is just a chore you do for selling or to preventing feeling of waste, with zero excitement.
