No. This messes with the vendor recipe.

" It would however make level progression easier for a short while, (until reaching the next point of diminished XP). It's just moving the goal posts. If any devs are following this thread can I ask if the map drop rate was reduced for OB? I've only run 20-30 maps so far in OB, but my feeling is that low level map drops seem less common than they were in closed beta. Of course with such a small sample it could just be RNG at work.

" Getting currency orbs is a heck of a lot easier than getting drop rates from maps Pretty much anything can be turned into a chaos orb at that point in the game, the amount of alch orbs you would have dropped should easily cover it for some time (you can almost always get a chaos orb in trade chat if you have alchs) |

" All true and thats why I added the ":p" What I don't understand though is why no one is selling maps. In closed beta the trade market ensured there was almost always maps available for those who wanted to buy them. Here though they seem extremely rare. I picked up maybe 15-20 maps from general play on the way to end-game so I'd don't think there's any issues there however map drops within these lvl66 maps feels somewhat lower than it was in closed beta.

" No one sells maps because they are the only thing you can do end game, and they are useful for that reason. There is never a reason to get rid of a map, because maps are the actual progression for the game People can sell orbs and whatnot because it doesn't stop/hinder their progression (unless they need those items to get better gear because the users gear is weak in one area, but in that case you wouldn't be selling). For maps though, selling maps means selling your end game I think TL's system of just having access to end game when you complete the final act on final difficulty is a lot better. Act4 in PoE hasn't actually been done yet, and PoE can just make it really hard if an issue arises where the end game map content is too easily available (actually TL had both maps, which were available all game, and the end game area which is basically a permanent map, I think this system was really nice, as the maps during the game was a nice way to level/grind instead of static areas which you were playing the game, not just when you do act4) Last edited by deteego#6606 on Feb 5, 2013, 8:09:14 PM

" Just wondering if you play closed beta? If you did you'd know that maps very common in trade. Infact when selling maps, you'd often have to cut your asking price in order to get the trade over others trying to sell their maps. The reason it was like this is because once you get to certain clvl, low level maps provided no value in terms of XP, (well less than 1%), so it was common to trade them for currency that could then be used to roll better mods on the higher level maps. Also in closed beta, the lowest level maps with just one or two decent mods would more often than not drop another map or two in order to allow at least some map progression. What I'd like to know is if the drop rate for maps has been adjusted downwards for open beta or are the newer players just not rolling the right mods on their low level maps.
