Got scammed out of my Mirror by 110 divines!!!

ya its kinda funny. i recently came back to play PoE from a 2 year hiadus, but only in standard, and i have a mirror sitting there i'd like to actually trade so i can upgrade my builds from gear and jewels and mechanics released in the past 2 years

but good luck doing that. it is too risky. a mirror in standard is like 900 divine. i guess the only way i could comfortably trade it is for mirror shards, then sell the shards separately, but thats just a massive annoyance IMO.

but i guess that way i could only sell what i wanted/needed. probably will be what i end up doing overall, if i sell it at all

i just don't really understand the stack limit. whats the point? its already been raised before, why not have it stack to 999 for everything? we know 3 digits is already possible because of simulacrum shards

I guess I am royally screwed and there's nothing I can do about this ? I sold my mirror for 710 divines, but the buyer only gave me 600 and ran off with the mirror before the second trade.

Don't feel so down, I got a mirror from Cadiro one time and linked it in global and a few days later a hacker came and wiped out my entire account and killed a few of my hc characters... It seems like a big deal now but poe always resets every few months.

I also got my first mirror this league and I took the risk on a trade but first had a bit of a conversation with the buyer. Anyway, the reason I went through with it was in the big picture I was getting more divines than I can spend this league and I don't play standard. Thus I "rolled the dice" and was happy when the buyer followed though with his promise but I was fully aware that I was taking a risk.

And, yes GGG should increase Divine stacks to 20 to avoid this from happening. Hear that my good friends at GGG? The game is great, let's make it a tiny bit better!

Just play for a couple of hours I'm sure another will drop with how often people find mirrors in this league.

I had my fair share of scammers over the years.
Editing whisper message to change buyout price.
Putting 200c and one stack is single chaos.
Put in div card, cancel put different div card.
Putting exalted orb instead of divines
And MANY MANY more.

Sometimes you get got, but last few leagues it's really starting to get out of hand...
We could use some help from GGG to bring order.

thats false in this league you can see multiple them by just mapping without mf gear

no. stop spreading misinformation. i barely even see divines. i probably drop a divine once or twice a week. you need MF. just wisps alone you will only get a bunch of low tier currency and items

do you really think GGG would let people drop mirrors if they just do the league mechanic? lol everyone would have a mirror by now if it was this easy

then you clearly havent been doing blue juice i get few divines drop per map with only 2-3k blue juice and no mf gear if you drop 1 divine per week then you clearly are doing something terribly wrong so its you who is spreading missinformation the blue juice is broken and you get tons of divine drops if you properly whisp juice your map

no i even watched that 25 min video that someone linked about the wisps. there are 4 encounters in every forest and i always find at least 3 of them.

i do get a lot of loot but its just low tier. i get like 100 alts and chance orbs in every few maps. but to get high loot you need more rarity/quant and thats where MF comes in

i'm not going to argue about this further because my posts will just get deleted like last time. so whatever. all i can say is thank god new players dont read these forums and see these absurd comments like " you can drop multiple mirrors without mf" and the only people who see these comments are the ones who know better

yes you are doing something wrong having maybe terrible atlas tree/no scarabs/no sextants/no whisp juice i was making around 4 divines per map on average without mf gear just casually mapping with scarabs and sextants people with mf could make like 10-15 divines per map
