Exactly...like whatever:D Speed farm currency with OP build and forget about thos silly crafts. AND nothing is going to change that in 3.14 or 3.15

Dear GGG Team,

this, to be said very directly, is absolute bull****!

What was your thoughts on this?

So many people like the access to really good items and being able to optimize semi-good gear instead of throwing it away and buying the gear they need.

Other than that harvest is a step-by-step optimization and therefore continuous progress which is a welcome alternative to the all or nothing approach poe offered before.

and last but not least, the people invest everything possible into this way of upgrading (like seen on the atlas point distribution, watchstones,...).
This surely is because they are forced to to get quite good stuff in resonable! time, but might also be just because people LIKE harvest and it's whole idea.
And especially this last argument is the only one to matter: It's a game for the people who play it...

So why on earth not let them play the game they like but instead forcing them to something you might call path of buy-your-item?

Best and farewell

Alright, see u maybe never.. I hate the U turns GGG is making in their philosophy. They introduce harvest then remove it copletely, then reintroduce it for just nerfing it hard. What are you smoking @GGG ?

Are they aware that without Harvest, PoE DOES NOT have a craft system at all ?
Gambling is not crafting ! I thought they finally understood it too. I feel really silly for having bought that huge supporter pack now :(

I think I will put PoE on hold for now. Too bad that there are currently no competitors...

I dont like this change at all, as a casual it feels like the one way to get endgame gear deterministically is now gone, this is the first league i actually pushed maps because of how i could atleast have a _decent_ chance of getting great gear, now ill go back to quitting league in a couple of weeks looks like.

Why not atleast keep it for SSF people? I understand how its being exploited via trade discords etc but this change is just bad for people who like to do everything themselves

Guess I go back to never getting past tier 10 maps again. Thanks GGG.

Delete mirrors > no more mirror tier items > Problem solved kekw.

Mirrors dont work on influenced items > problem solved kekw

Last Epoch probably is the most noteable right now.

By the way... Up until 4.0, ... We're at 3.13 and talking about 3.14. Am I imagining things or is it years until we reach 4.0?

Ballsy move GGG, Good sign for the longevity of the game.

Very happy this is the last Discord league. Endgame gear progression was never meant to be this easy and deterministic.

Gamblers rejoice! Super keen for 3.14

Even if you like it contrary to most of us, you have not fully comprehended one thing.

Next league will have even more "discord trade". Why? Because the high level crafts that rest (augment fire/cold/inf/etc) will have a lower chance to spawn, so they will actually be more expensive. Imagine an augment speed that costs 5-7 ex on TFT, and actually has few outcomes so can be a good "ex slam" to do. It will cost at least 10 ex or more next league.

They nerfed harvest (i disagree how it is but okay, hell even pro streamers like path of math disagree, check his video quite well explained, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdpA_xHXhEA

You fail to understand that augs will not work on influenced items so it will be not be a discord game as much anymore.

Path of Math talk was out of touch with what he was saying before on his stream and in AT LEAST one podcast. That video he made was a complete clickbait and he shows example on a pdps mods which are next to impossible to roll with T1 mods and always were, for w good reason which btw he also knows. Skills are balanced around fact that physical weapons are hard as fuck to roll high. He was crying that harvest needs a nerf and that it's a mirror printing machine just a moment ago and now whent it was nerfed he actually is angry? You took the bait
