Aurabots messed up the whole league economy and it sucks hard

High tier i86 and influenced items are already way too cheap compared to previous leagues although this league they should be way more rarer as less people are able to farm as fast or as high due to nerfs.

At the same time watchstones, scarabs and orbs are way more expensive than last league although less players should be able to make use of them.

While profit potentials are very obviously nerfed in high payout mechanics, especially Ritual.

Solo farming T19 60% maps is not worth it at all anymore.
The profit margins between solo vs group aurabot MF player is literally ten folds or more.

I was happy with the nerfs because it should have meant that more lucrative rewards are gated behind more effort, skill and better builds but instead it ended up with aurabots running over the economy hardcore way harder than past leagues with w00t BBQ untouched immortal imbalanced builds.

Probably won't do much more this league.

well GGG need just rework or rly nerf hard aura/curse bots for good...

3.15 is just a start.

Dude you can't quit yet! This was supposed to be the best and most succesful league in PoE history! Don't you remember?

Sounds like the D3 problem when groups got way more out of the game than solos.

You should try SSF.

incorrect. the nerfs mostly hurt average players, not meta players. they are cheap because the average players arent buying.

these are often farmed by those average players who just sit in lower level (1-10 maps) since those players arent present, no market glut for these "common" items.

welcome to reality. you screw your average players, you screw yourself.
if you want people to want what you have, it needs to be reasonably obtainable by them, and not gated. IE they will pay for convenience, but skip entirely when there is no reasonable chance for them to progress.

these nerfs suck for the average player while doing almost nothing to slow down the zoom meta players, and this league mechanic is slow and clunky, so most people dont find it enjoyable to do. also the basic design was hugely flawed, again by gating, and because of the silliness of making the effects only follow the line of detonation instead of creating a total pool of effects.

you have no one to blame but your own greed.

What ?


Aura bots/Aura Stackers have been a thing for a long time now.. This is nothing new.

Influence items are coming from Logbooks. I can get 10-15 to drop from a Logbook.


It has nothing to do with Aura Bots.. as that is nothing new.

Not as prevalent nor influential as previous leagues, I've done T19 60% farming since it's conception.

They don't drop often enough and you need i86 for them, rare bases don't drop from logs.

I'm not sure whether Aurabots are the major culprit. I do agree that Aurabots destroy the game and all form of Aurastacking should be nerfed to the ground (These types of builds have been a problem for the game for an eternity).

But the reason your bases aren't selling isn't because Aurabots are farming bases faster than you. Although, they are a problem and are most likely supplying more bases than solo players.

The main reason your bases aren't selling is because of the supply and demand curves. Put simply, the supply greatly outweighs the demand. There simply aren't enough players to buy all the bases you're farming.

Aura bots and broken builds have existed in all leagues and these builds have always been supplying the market with a masive amount of bases.
However, in past leagues these bases would actually sell because people were actually playing the game.
