Endgame weapon before Elreon mod = 50ex
Endgame weapon with Elreon mod = 2ex
Selffound casual players with Elreon lvl 8 not able to get 2ex? Dont believe you guys.
Is everyone freaking insane right now?
The problem I see with this is that now people are going to rationalize that an exalt is 1/2 of an end game viable weapon. So selling an exalt for 100 chaos is a steal compared to what you would pay for a gg dagger.
It would've been better if they waited with the change until the leagues end. Still, 2 ex is virtually nothing so there will be no economic disaster. People are crying over nothing, yet again.
Virtually nothing? I've completely and totally fluked this league finding 2 and trading for 2 more - I am also intensely saving fuses - trading everything not nailed down for fuses... and am sitting (I thought) pretty fucking pretty with just over 700 now.
Am I missing something here where 2 exalts isn't a big deal?
I haven't even GOTTEN my fucking Master to 8 to even have benefited from the cheaper recipe - even though I've literally farmed this fucking game for 5 hours DAILY and my best master is level 6 75% (EDIT - my BEST is 25% into level 6) to level 7.
I even farm corrupted areas 99% of the time - so I benefit from corrupted and finding masters... I don't exploit the community and hit some 840 channels though. I think the game should be played "as normal" - and I guess that's my fuck up... and I guess this is one of those times I pay the price for not abusing mechanics with the community.
But fuck off - 2 exalts?
This change - the way Masters have been handled - has just been ridiculously bad.
I see you have a level 86 in Rampage. You should have at least 10 ex worth of stuff by now without even trying. I have around 5 ex in currency atm and have spent around 10 ex on gear and gems and my highest Rampage character is 81. Leveling Elreon to 8 is a hundred times harder than getting 2 ex. 2 ex is literally a couple of hours of farming lol.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
The cost is alright, it'd be alright even if it was three times more expensive. The problem is the fact that you need exalts for this popular mod, which will completely fuck up chaos:exalted ratio...

Where do you people make up these numbers of how long it takes to get an Exalt, it amazes me.
Face it, if you don't have decent RNG, you won't get this amount of currencies/items as you speak of.
Can we now just get a PROPER price for the Elreon Additional Mod Crafting, this 2Ex is nowhere near acceptable, CONSIDERING it was supposed to be for SELF-FOUND.

Crafting before FM expansion:
You use 2 exalts on an item to get 2 random mods.
Crafting after FM expansion:
You use 2 exalts on an item and choose 3 mods you need.
Can you guys pls pls pls just be happy about it?
No, of course they won't be happy.
I keep my characters from past leagues. From Nemesis, this is my 2-hand sword spectral ranger's weapon:
I spent like 20ex making that and I thought I got extremely lucky. There were better out there but hey I got unlucky with the exalts when I couldn't afford any more Eternals. Today that sword would never happen on a crafted item. You would never get those trash mods on it and get only the dps mods.
I look at the other pieces of rare equipment on that character and think what trash they are compared to what is considered decent now, especially since I would have been able to do the really cheap FM mods on all my rares and then adjust all my equipment because I can add specific resists that I want so I can completely eliminate some pieces for pure dps or tanky item, and then also adjust my spec for more efficiency.
The power creep is definitely real and the game is getting easier by the patch. But people keep on complaining and acting like it's the end of the world.
Yep, pretty normal for entitled people.

Meh - I find myself here looking at things pretty logically in terms of time vs rewarding our time - constantly when it comes to this company - constantly does it boil down to the fact that GGG does not respect our time as players. No one here on these forums will ever convince me otherwise. So what's the point of engaging in this type of discussion.
At the end of the day - no matter how much you want to hold your breath and turn blue in the face from denying it - GGG FAILS TO RESPECT OUR TIME AS PLAYERS IN THEIR GAME.
With that: I graciously bow out of this thread. Good luck fellahs.
Yeah they should auto-spawn near BiS weapons into your stash because ain't nobody got time to farm 2 ex :^)

I think they do respect your time and them offering you end game craftable weapons for pocket change is an indicator of that.
So you are telling me that 2ex is too expensive for a 300dps weapon?
Yes. Nothing is worth 2ex really. Only in the minds of no-lifers who over inflate prices.
I agree, if you have any Shavronne's Wrappings, Mjolners, Void Batteries, Kaom's Heart or the like lying around I'd happily take them off your hands for 3ex, which is way more than they're really worth.
