Why self-found needs its own league
Here:
Give self found a perk. that perk includes CANNOT trade or use guild stash and cannot use gear bought by other chars. So only self found That bestel dude in act 1 can remove the perk at no cost. To boost self found: 10 10 iiq iir perm on that perk as well. The moment u choose bestel to remove, u lose bonus as well Vorici can shove his fuse up his [removed]

You don't get it. This game is not balanced around self found and could not be balanced around self found. When you allow trading, you can balance around it. When you don't allow it, either you give all players such insane drop rates that the game is boring as fuck, or it's even worse RNG than it is already.
SFL = no, because it's not competitive And if you don't want competition, there's already Standard. | |
" I put a solution in a later response which provides a solution for item exploitation: In the code, track an items first (or last) owner. Either works. If a self-found player comes into contact with an item, check if it had a previous owner, and if it did, then remove their self-found status. The identifier for characters would have to be a unique character id as character names could be exploited by making new characters, deleting them, and then creating a new one under the same name. Items dropped by monsters would keep track of who killed the monster to drop it, for checking purposes as well. This would allow GGG to create checks for taking items out of the stash used by other characters, trades, drop checking, and prevent pretty much ever item exploit you can think up. There is a solution for every exploit you can think of that is very simple conceptually and not very complicated in my opinion. Edit: One idea that your post gave me though was that items dropped and/or allocated to other players have a red-border on them so that self-found players can still party together. Self found players would have to be prevented from entering non-self found player maps or or given a prompt to lose their self-found status by entering. This prevents 'acquiring maps/currency/exp' from non-self found players. Non-self found players wouldn't be allowed to enter self-found maps because the self-found players would lose their self-found status, which would be griefing. Also because self-found players shouldn't be able to get any help from non-self found players anyway. The one weird case would be that it's fine for non-self found players to enter self found players maps after the self found players have left it. But then the self found players wouldn't be able to enter that map anymore (instance flagged as non-self found so they get the prompt/denial message). Has minor griefing potential but could be avoided by not having self-found players in party when you leave an instance (which you'd only have if trading probably, which you won't be doing as a self found players so it's probably fine). Thus, the two types of players wouldn't be able to map together. Which is kind of what you guys wanted anyway though right? Now that I think about it, that's kind of like player segregation but within a league. I dunno, it's getting too muddy for me now. I'm going to quit.

" I really don't see this as the issue. It's trading with other players that is central to self found vs. not. There's a ridiculously large degree of separation between trading and being carried by someone who traded. The former gives you the specific item you're after immediately, the latter still relies on RNG. Gaining EXP isn't a matter of self found at all it's a matter of solo vs grouping. | |
" Whatever the hell happened to you? Make some more videos got dam. Though I have to say self found league makes no sense to me as the number one priority of GGG is to keep the leagues that already exist as healthy as possible. Siphoning people off to some self found league (for, elitists, let's face it) is one of the last things the game will ever need. | |
