One mod max crafting is a braindead decision

"
The change is fine if they make ground loot more meaningful and impactful.


Thats a big "if," POE 1 is going on 13 years now and still hasnt solved this riddle. I wouldnt hold your breath.
Very good changes for the crafting system in my opinion

You're not getting off that easy, please explain how this is a "very good" change? Random exalt spamming is good how? We've been there, we did it nearly a year, we already know it sucks.

Just that PoE 1 had never the target to make "meaningful" ground loot. It was always about bombing people with loot and clutter the screen with crap.

Like literally.

We can check out other ARPGs which don't have access to a player regulated market or other systems and they somewhat have the meaningful loot already (Last Epoch or Torchlight 2 as examples) if that is what they actually want, but having meaningful loot in campaign which flows to shit loot the moment we get into maps is like not so bright?

For that the whole aspect of hordes would need to become smaller and PoE 2 would need to become a completely different game as it was supposed to be.
They made essences go from being pretty good to completely useless garbage. Was there really no middle ground?

completely useless garbage? So what you are saying is, if you had a 6-mods rare weapon there are definitely, no situations, ever in which you are going to want to use a Perfect Essence of Battle on it?

Nope devs plan economy resets, with balancing stuff and minor additions like some uniques and missing ascendacies.

I dont know where you think that ground loot isnt a serious problem GGG is trying to solve in POE1. The first 40 minutes of the interview with ziggyd not even 3 months ago was about this very topic. Look it up on youtube, in the mirage Q&A if you dont believe me.
