Path of exile is a job.

play ssf

The same thing in PoE1: buying is often easier, but to buy, you also need to sell.

And this only applies to common junk. Try to buy a truly good item. Either it doesn’t exist, or it’s overpriced (or not) for mirror. At such moments, you start crafting. What you call crafting is just tossing a few chaos orbs at random trash. That’s not crafting. In PoE2, there is no crafting.

Try crafting a ring with a double essence mod and a veiled mod, or at least double elevated boots with the necessary mods. Attempt to get the required double corruption on an off-color six-link armor with the needed rolls, or create a T1/T1/T1 physical weapon with a veiled suffix and T1 attack speed. These are crafts, and they force you to use different approaches and combine methods. Almost always during the process, you can choose one way or another to proceed by opting between high reward and risk or compromise. And then you go back to PoE2 to throw chaos orbs. It’s funny.

You can do all of what you said in poe1. Like what made you even think the crafting should be copy pasted into poe2?

Be glad we get to start from scratch and not be bombarded with some convoluted crafting solutions.

Do you mean Path of Exile 2? Maybe put your post in the Path of Exile 2 Sub-forum to avoid the confusion.

I'll post where I please. Don't like it? Move along or say something stupid.

Your playing the game completely different. In poe 1 you barely have a character at 90. Your experience is irrelevant to mine. If they want me to spend money they need to cater to me as well. Or I'll take my money elsewhere.

Post where you want, but it is significantly more productive when placed correctly.

I think GGG will survive without your money, it is a F2P game after all...

Not that it matters at all to this post, but you should try looking at more than 1 character. I'm max level and mirror tier geared. No idea how that compares to you, since you have a private profile...

Every game is starting to feel like a Dark Souls game. The trash drop trash basically. OP bosses with tons of health and again drop trash most the time. Even these mini bosses drop trash or nothing at all. Myself I've seen 2 gold item drops but not for my class I just store them for another class. Progress is just fighting bosses reminds me of ER and DS. Boss fights consist of dodge/roll, dodge/roll, dodge/roll, dodge/roll, dodge/roll, dodge/roll, dodge/roll, dodge/roll.... fun times oh and one shots. The dodge roll feels so clunky and slow for that matter so does the movement speed.

Dark Souls or Elden Ring don't have one shots. They always give you the chance to dodge, block, space and heal up. There isn't a single attack in all of their games that one shots you.

One shots are lazy and non intuitive game design. Fromsoftware doesn't do it.

Manocean with the 6 man Dominus loot explosions!

I played HC SSF and a ton of HC players do. It sounds like a skill issue.

Play on HC SSF, there problem solved. Or maybe create your own private league - cream puff mode

It really was that way some years ago but right now poe 1 is perfectly fine even if you have a job and kids.
