What Happened with Items

For regular players who are just alching their maps and adding difficulty where they feel they can handle it, we think that drops are in a pretty good place after this week's changes.

You're out of touch with the masses. This will hurt population overall as the height of POE is mainly from the fast paced and lots of loot.

just water, nothing important
League is over

What they are not understanding is that the combination of mods we need to make good money while insanely juicing is a lottery and extremely rare. You took away our consistent drops/good loot and replaced it with an RNG fest. What are we supposed to do, run as many maps as it takes while losing money and hope we hit the Powerball eventually? What if we run out of money to pay for our maps before we kill the rare that drops 50 divines. Hello?

Also, I would love to see these groups that drop multiple mirrors per day.

Simple.....reduce the number of equipment drops by 75%, and increase the amount of currency, divination, gems, etc. by 50%.

Finding 100+ rare items in each map, is not fun. ID'ing those items would be both tedious and pointless, that is why most people who play in SC Trade, and have made it to red maps, Filter most, if not all rare equipment.

Currency conversion monsters are too rare, which makes progress feel random. I'd like a larger average currency baseline with smaller explosions than the other way around.

That said, the philosophy behind the decisions are sound, and I want a game that adheres to them. I just also want a game where I can translate an hour of playtime into progression of my character.

END GAME CRAFTING IS DEAD


You took away one of the best parts of Harvest
We don't give a shit about swapping Div cards.
We care about crafting gear that allows to fight your AN mobs without dying.
FIX THIS!!!!

GIGACHAD Chris. Taking up full responsibility as it is. The attempt to ‘slow down’ the game was extremely adverse no doubt, so thanks for listening. Please use the meme that POE is currently to your benefit. <3 and thanks again for the personal touch

Hey Chris, thanks for the detailed account of things going on. I hope you and the team doesn't let the negative feedback get to you too much. The community has been behaving outrageously. I very much enjoy the league and actually look forward to those loots explosions that solo players could previously not archiv. Take care!

No thanks!

this is a huge wall of text to tell us to stfu and you dont care.

also the lake is a complete waste of time, not only do you need to actually build the thing but then its on the worst type of terrain where you constantly get stuck, i get that sentinel was overtuned but the current leagues mechanic should always be on the stronger side so i dont feel like i am wasting my time doing it over other things
