When Dogma Stifles Design: Why Fate of the Vaal Failed the Majority

I don’t mind temple building being extremely rewarding, what grinding my gears is that map contents don’t have the same scaling factor. For example, I want to spam omen of lights to craft my own gears, but farming the items is so much RNG and inconsistent, it’s just loot on Tuesday. Not to mention the IIR system, mapping is way harder than doing temple, why is it not as rewarding without IIR??
Exploit early exploit often bozos.

I agree, if one activity is outrageously more profitable than the others it makes this imbalance... Items dropped from temple tend to become cheaper while everything else goes sky high.

This is exactly why some build defining items like Tecrods Gaze are shutting down the economy for many people who see themselves now stranded at mid tier... Either because they can't farm 20 whittling omens to craft their gear, neither they can afford upgrades. They basically got priced out of the market.

So a second wind league goes 50K users? This is a concrete pointer that the main economy got wrecked. My question is, why not a rollback ? Nevermind it's just rhetorics 😎

Thats concrete pointer of the opposite.


The league mechanic is still over the top regardless of holten or not.


The fact that, this many people want to continue, but your whole message is "failed the majority", it falls on its face.


Not JUST continue but reroll their characters as well? Redo the campaign? Start over on POE2?


Yea nothing you "input" in your title and OP holds up.
