I don't need to check something. This is not about gear they, or I, have. This all about mentality.

GGG don't play they own game a long time right now. Exalt slam was a thing maybe at Perandus-Prophecy leagues and even then required some knowledge to not being a stupid move. Because of how poor 'craft' is. It's never be a craft. It's stupid gambling that nobody likes.

Torchlight series, and Last Epoch right now, have NPC that sell random things. You can see only base type, rarity and stats will rolled after you purchase one of that things and not before. It's called 'gambling' at 2009. And this gambling is PoE 'craft' system.

I don't played Diablo 2, I just have no PC in that time. I'm not share all the feeling that GGG have in mind for all awfull stuff like trade 'system'. PoE have no trade system. And we now in 2021, not in 2000.

Diablo 2 also had Gambling, you went to an NPC and you would buy UNID items and have no idea what they were, after buying Last Epoch this week, they have the same !

You might be surprised to see the number of people who actually support this change. Players get tunnel vision. They see only their perspective and assume it is shared by all.

When GGG first put PoE out, we did not have all of the crafting options we do now. No veiled items, no masters, no crafting bench, no fossils, etc...And this was when the game was purest to the original vision.

This is also when many people fell in love with the game, and many of us are still around. Many would love to see the game return to its roots in some form by taking away an aspect that made the game much easier than desired.. And many of us are happy to see GGG acknowledge that they have gone astray and backpedal knowing full well they are about to take a lot of shit as well as possibly lose some players.

I am not saying any one opinion on the matter is wrong, I am simply saying that not one person should ever assume to speak for another, because at that point, they then become wrong. I too plan to resume my support, IF they stick with this decision come 3.14

We dont have crafting options now, well with the exception of harvest. Lots of gambling options though if that's what you mean?[/quote]

Tell me, buddy, how much "Someone" pays on this Probation for this nonsense that you write here, you are counting on some benefit ... what is your credibility for criticizing or expressing your opinion if you did not get involved in harvesting? I think you have a brown language ..... I'm skipping a huge amount of fan packages :))

WOW, 4360 Replies, GGG time to listen to the community.

Ok iam playing poe for now 3 years now have little time to play, this leuge was a blast. Atlas changes was so good i made a tonn of currency thx.-)

Yes but Last Epoch has a decent deterministic crafting system with some affix tiers that you can't craft (chasing loot) and Diablo 2 had a decent loot system and no need for craft or gambling. I played thousands of hours in D2 and ever gambled once...

PoE is a giant casino at this point, not a game anymore...

By saying that the game is much easier now, you are using your own view on the game, which obviously is different to those not liking these changes.

You also make the big mistake to play trade league, while believing everyone would do.

I have not traded a single item in this game, for me the game is still brutally hard if we talk boss fights. Yes, I do red Tier 16 easily as a summoner, I can do conquerers, Elder, Guardians with the occasial death.

But, I have never done Sirus, not even on A0 (I play A8), never did shaper, never did uber Atziri or Maven.

At Sirus I am one shot across the screen, there is no way to survive these hits, I just die when entering the scene.

All those boss fights, are insanely hard to do if you dont one shot them, which summoners just dont do. We have to let our minions do damage, but while they do, we get one shot all the time even with max block, max res, 80 something phys reduction and 9k EHP and zombie leech.


As for crafting,

I tried hard to get a +1 int gems, res + life amulet by using harvest, alts, chaos and regal orbs. Guess what, I still dont have it, heck I did not even see the +1 once.

This is how "easy" it is for those not trading items and that is a huge flaw in the game. In SSF, things must be available as we cant cheat the system with trade.

I have not played the league content but only standard this league, as I am fed up with that situation. They must tweak their bosses, they must offer us a way to get items without trade, this is an ARPG and not a trading platform.

We want to kill and craft, this is what ARPGs are all about, not trading which belongs to an MMORPG with an AH.

Ya agreed, we gambled in D2 once for memes, dupe a bunch of gold and see what happens
