Defeated Vaal Architect, the +6 crystal medallion just disappeared.

So because I had some stupid ass medallions occupying my 3/3 slot, which by the way, if I try to pick up a 4th medallion it tells me that I can't, so I didn't think to check when I defeated the architect and he dropped a medallion and immediately clicked on it.

Well guess what? It just got deleted. It wasn't used. There is no +6 to my crystal amount, it's just gone. Other medallions won't let you do this, they state you cannot hold more medallions and need to delete one. Those medallions aren't important. This one is. But this one just got deleted. Why do I even need to pick it up? Why doesn't clicking on it just use it?

Hey, by the way, the Vaal Temple is THE WORST MECHANIC you've ever designed. This just makes it worse. Certain players have abused this Vaal Temple and are literally printing hundreds of divines a day.

Here I am, trying to destabilize my stupid temple so that I can even set it up "properly" and get some decent rewards, and when I DO manage to beat the HORRENDOUSLY designed architect, who has next to no telegraphs and can one-hit my 82% Fire/Lightning/Cold 75% Chaos resist, max armor, elemental as armor etc. Warrior, and I finally get to make some god damn progress, something like this happens and I think to myself;

ARE YOU INCOMPETENT? How are mistakes like this being made in PoE 2? Didn't you make PoE 1 for 10 years?

I feel absolutely insulted and disrespected as a player. I am rightfully furious at this incident and I am sick to death of the game being so woefully full of flaws when we're a year into early access, dropping "seasonal" content that ruins the game, and we don't even have the basic sword and shield class in the game or the storyline finished yet. WTF?

Nice Temple. It absolutely SUCKS.
