[Vaal Temple] Rewards need to be nerfed badly, economy is in shambles
|
Do you know in 1960 a Coke cost 5 cents.
It doesn't now. Fix it GGG NOW! |
|
" Just saying that also indicates a broken economy. When 9 maps cost 1 div. That is a broken economy. “The bird of Hermes is my name, eating my wings to make me tame.”

Affliction league flashbacks.
Worthless currency such as chaos, divine, exalted. But items that aren't directly dropping from that one abused exploit - well, they are hiking in price drastically. Every gold rush is the same. If people are rushing to the mine, be the one selling the shovels and pickaxes. |
|
" And just like Affliction league, I expect the one that follows will be met with deafening cries of "poverty/unfun league" when Fate of the Vaal winds up not going core. Those who don't partake in this broken snake meta will be mentally far better off in the coming months. PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds. Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build! And the winds will cry / and many men will die / and all the waves will bow down / to the Loreley Last edited by Pizzarugi#6258 on Jan 5, 2026, 10:47:18 AM

The in-game economy became highly inflated within just two weeks, before the Temple gameplay was even released. In reality, the Temple only gives casual players a chance to gaze at the back of farming teams from afar—if anything, farming teams have exploited the Temple to further amplify their advantages.
If you think the Temple is the cause of the economic collapse, you are completely mistaken. The real culprits behind the shattered economy are the farming teams’ absurdly high loot rates and Real-Money Trading (RMT) activities conducted by certain players. |

" At this point, claims of RMT being the culprit go in one ear and out the other. Unless you have proof RMT is to blame, something nobody on these forums has provided in the history of ever, you're tilting at windmills. And if group play was the problem, the economy would've been terrible in every single major update prior, even all the way back in 0.1.0. That simply was never the case. In 0.3.0, I was farming Jade Isles for Rakiata's Flow and they were worth maybe 25div. If either RMT or group play were the sole reason for the economy falling apart, it would've been worth 200+ divines in 0.3.0 like they currently are right now. Somebody literally made a thread 2 days ago showcasing their currency gain from a single temple run.  50 divines. Per temple. Now, multiply that with all of the players engaging in this content. This isn't normal, dude. PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

GGG did an amazing job for temple. Where else can you farm 6k divine and 3 mirrors drop in 3 weeks. The economy is looking great right now. Most end game items are only 500 divines or above. This is great for casual players. They should be able to get their stuff before 0.5

" I don't have a temple built and I have made over 200 DIV this weekend running breach and abyss. Find a spot in the market were you can make money. Temple will be nerfed next league, but this league isn't ruined by any sense. |

Seems like they want it to be this rewarding.
Idk it takes awhile to actually get it to that point of rewards Doesn’t really see the issue myself. Especially going forward where it will require a tablet to even get the mechanic outside of this league Mash the clean

" 40 divines for a spirit gem is an issue, it's not that everyone got that temple setup, if i drop one i dont even cut it, straight to ange lol |
