When real decent unique drops not just hype?
" The original post was about the drop rate of "chase uniques", not about how many bad uniques there are in the game. I don't have any pity for SSF players. You chose to handicap yourself. | |
" "The ENTIRE game"? - No. But if you play SSF you can expect the EXTREMELY rare items to be... well you can guess. | |

That's what Eleven Hour Games got right and GGG will never.
EHG aim their balancing point at "just under overpowered". So they don't spendt time nerfing and nerfin and nerfing again in order to balance a solo play game. They give give and give again to the players: QoL, SSF guild and trees, customisable skills, endless endgame... They do have a vision too but their vision is not there to harness, frustrate and nerf the players. Frankly GGG just HATE their players. And an Action RPG end goal should not be "Trading Simulator 95 : Craig's List edition" with the special DLC "Bots, RMTs and Chinese spammer". Last edited by IKerensky#7242 on Jun 12, 2025, 3:19:09 PM

My 5 cents.
I'm playing SSF myself, but to play it succesfully you have to be open-minded. Even in PoE1 it is not that easy to get a needed unique. Atleast in PoE2 we have the properly working orb to do that (Orb of Chance is trash in Poe1). Ofcourse, you play how you want to play, I have nothing against it. But the fun part of playing SSF for me is trying to figure out a build with what I have. As I said before, you have to be open-minded to do that. You got a cool unique, but not for your current build? Consider getting other gear, recombine gear with 1 or 2 good suffixes\prefixes in order to use that item, etc. This is how i see SSF. The need to be creative and to work with what you get. And making a proper filter is very important too. You got a mail belt? You can smash your Orb of Chance on it, maybe you will get the BiS Kitava belt. Or you got a gold diadem? Well, this has a chance to become the BiS Lich helmet. So on and so forth.. Honestly, if you want to play a specific build, better play trade. You will save yourself a lot of time and stress. Last edited by grynnder#7112 on Jun 12, 2025, 4:23:11 PM

Another problem is , that pinnacle content is a next joke , where is sense to do arbiter of ash if i will get more divs selling the fragments then from loot from him , king in the mist , the only valuable item was ingenuity now is no sense to grind this , trial master ? Mahuxotl's Machination nerfed noth worth anything , and the sorcerer class death , that's the worst patch i ever seen in any arpg game , pathetic

" Exactly this. Some people are completely missing the point that most chase uniques are now hot trash. Of course they didnt go from 80 to 50 with ingenuity, it had to be 30............ Of course the spirit on oaksworn had to be ZERO instead of 50. Wtf, Oaksworn is literally a leveling item, it sees zero play endgame, but it was too fun to exist so theyve destroy it. Why have they nerfed Trenchtimbre from +4 to +2? And why trenchtimbre dosen't drop like cake now, since it's not that strong anymore? Absolutely fucking ridiculous. |
