Gem availability sucks for self found

You probably have no idea how hard it was before the vendor starts to sell skill gems then


You should have picked up from the fact that my Burning Arrow (Shadow gets it as a vendor gem now) Flameblaster died to a reflect pack (no longer exist) that I've been playing the game for a while. Gem availability used to be much shittier than it is now. I know, I played through that terribleness. I made many comments about how shitty it was then.

Amazingly enough, it's possible for something to still be shitty even after it has been improved. That's the situation we're currently in now. Gem availability, even after the improvements, still sucks. It should be better.
Amazingly, not a single person has provided an argument as to why poor gem availability is better than good gem availability. Quite a few people have shown up to shit on me and the thread while contributing nothing of value to the discussion, though.

Keep being you, POE forum. Never fucking change.

No one supports you because you are just being too greedy, if you want it easy, go play single player games and use cheat engine to get what you want.

Yep, basic content availability is clearly analogous to making the whole game easier.

Keep up the classy arguments, PoE forums! I don't know why on earth redditors and other people would classify this as a place where random idiots stop by to shit all over people's threads.

I would love to hear you explain how I'm being greedy. Explain how wanting access to gems from vendors in fucking merciless that anybody can trade 2 alts for in normal is fucking greedy, and how that's also me wanting the game to be easy in the same way as using a fucking cheat engine.

Jesus fucking Christ, man, how can you even spout this ridiculous bullshit? This is the sort of inane garbage you should be ashamed of letting ooze from your fingers.
A pretty sane suggestion with the usual amount of neysayers for no goddamn reason.

It's tedium for the sake of tedium. The truth is, GGG doesn't want you if you're not part of the trading economy. And the forum hardcore wannabes dont want you either :)
hey ggg

my build requires empower

but i didn't get a single one drop in all of league

plz make it a vendor gem

kkthxbye

okay nevermind labyrinth, fix dx9 blackscreen instead...
The sad thing is that I don't believe anyone is trolling in this thread. I think the people making the most laughably idiotic arguments imaginable honestly believe they're saying something intelligent and worth listening to.

Yes, little Johnny, GGG offering Burning Arrow to classes in merciless that don't get it as a quest or vendor reward earlier is the exact same as giving everyone Empower. Here's your cookie and your special hat that lets everyone know how special you are. You're a winner, Johnny, and don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise!
It's not something I care about at all, but I have noticed a few things that don't make much sense:

Witch doesn't get Temporal Chains despite having lots of duration-based effects like Essence Drain.

Witch doesn't get Less Duration despite Lightning Warp being one of the main mobility skills, and LW absolutely requires Less Duration.

More than half the classes don't get Increased Duration, even though pretty much every character uses it. Inc Duration is the new Reduced Mana gem :/

I think there are a few green attack gems that Marauder doesn't get too. Lightning Strike, Whirling Blades, and Wild Strike should all be available to Marauder imo.


I think the A3 Library quest should unlock more gems, as should the A4 storyline. I don't need every gem to be available to every character because it's already hard to find gems in vendors, but the current setup is a bit patchy.
