GGG obviously does not PLAY poe at all.

Umm... for all the complainers in this thread, did you ever consider that maybe, just maybe GGG didn't think every single master should have a great currency deal like Vorici and Elreon? Do we really need 7 different options for "free" orbs...

Yes yes we fucking do lol

THIS is the reason people think GGG has no clue whats going on in their game? Something so petty out of all the obvious reasons?

Next $1000 supporter packs should allow supporters to force a dev to level a character to 80 so they have the slightest bit of a grasp on what the hell their game is.

Duh lol, is this news? There's plenty of /facepalm stuff in PoE. The elreon 2ex mod? Yeah. How about the map mods that cost 2ex too? lol @ that too. The currency exchange on most masters is retarded too, except for 2 of them. How about the ridiculous 1 shot mechanics that are released through the beginning of each league? The over retardedly strong invasion bosses? remember those? Man If I was in charge of the balance team this game would be as famous as d2

The 1:3 chromatic to jeweller's rate at vendors never made any sense. And unlike the regret to alchemy conversions, it's not even worth using for self-found players. I think I may have even made a thread complaining about this back in closed beta, lol. 1:1 would be fair while still being a worse deal than P2P trading. Tora's offer would make sense as twenty chromatics for ten jeweller's or even just scrap it altogether and replace it with a scouring to regret conversion.

And Zana's chisel conversion is like ten to eleven chaos off from being reasonable.

This. It would probably help GGG's image considerably if its own staff members actually bothered to level a character past 50 on their public accounts :P

When I saw that I could get 10 alchs from Vagan if I paid him 8 regrets I knew that very little thought was put into the Masters' currency exchange. Felt half-assed.

How so? Because clarissa is better? Or because the masters trade in different "rates" than the players?

Because what use is it to have a vendor that sells 10 Alchs for 8 Regrets seeing as I could get 10 alchs from a player trade for 2.5 regrets. Some thought or insight to how the people exchange currency would have been nice. If this was an attempt at adding some pseudo "fee" on the convenience for currency exchange then I could see their logic, but for now it just seems like they slapped in some random numbers.

The numbers aren't random (except zana). That's why this thread is so silly. The trade values from masters are based off the values sold by the NPC in towns.

I don't think they would have time for actual development if they did that lol.
