100% sure people have probably vendored 10 ex+ base fractured items.

And seriously, anyone who's played the game for more than a couple hundred hours can easily identify a 10ex rare item because "good mods are good". Meanwhile, no one has a lookup table in their head for every single good synthesized mod except streamers playing the game 10 hours per day.

After you spend couple hundereds hours in a game with synthesised mods you will be able to identify those "10 ex bases". It is new and you cant identify it same as new player to PoE cant identify if rare item he got is good or not.
Are people mad because they thought they knew everything about this game and looks they need to learn something else?

I'm totally ignoring the entire synthesis part of the game. I'm only running maps and delves.

''After you spend couple hundereds hours in a game with synthesised mods''

So basically you need to no-life the league, or play from day 1 until last day in order to learn the league. Nice, not a bad idea AT ALL /s

... a couple hundred hours "in a game with synthesized mods" isn't even accurate. It's a couple hundred hours looking at fractured and synthesized mods.

Even in this league, even for people who don't hate the mechanic, at most 20% of people's time is being spent actually interacting directly with the league mechanic, both identifying fractured items and synthesizing them.

Meanwhile, identifying non-fractured rares is something that in their first few hundred hours of the game, everyone does, all the time.

So, great, we need to spend a thousand hours now (20% of 1000 is 200, in case you're too slow for simple math) playing a single league just to have an intuitive grasp of a single league mechanic (ie, without constantly needing to look up whether something is worth literally anything). And in future leagues, when this mechanic is core and isn't something you encounter once per map, it'll be even less. If you encounter 3 memories once every ~20 maps, that's an engagement rate of at most 1/6 of the present engagement rate, so it'll be 6000 hours for future players to gain an intuitive grasp of ONE MECHANIC, before they can just look at the fractured mods and go "oh hey, this one can help me get minimum charges and max resistances with high probability!"

If that doesn't sound obviously ridiculous to you, then talking to you is completely hopeless on virtually any topic and I have to thank you for letting me know that you aren't worth engaging with.

i only pick up certain fractured bases, and i only stash them if they have a t1 roll - literally don't do anything else.

i hardly ever run memory nexus, and when i do its only to reward nodes/bosses.
i've done the whole set up a farm and get mods then run them on amplifiers etc and its always been shit. like actual shit. so for me, still, the time investment is not worth it in the slightest - OTHER than just rushing to reward nodes.

i still haven't really gotten anything notable though. i've had better drops in fucking uber lab than anything so far. pretty sad league for me.

You dont need to memorize every single outcome of crafting in synthesiser to know which bases are the most valuable.

I've gotten a ton of currency by running amplified, synthisized memory nodes, I have a stack of over 30 engineer's orbs, I don't think I had that many in Harbinger league.

I use un-id'd fractured rares for chaos recipe.

It's because
"I don't need school, I'll just play games and become a popular streamer"

Math: "surpriiiiise motherfucker....."
