Significantly Increasing Access to Spirit Beasts

But when is the Xbox release?

Ahahahaha.....

1 in every 50 maps.

That's the Significant increase version.



And you still have to catch it ( have yet to find a rare net to roadkill catch beasts )....
...and then fight the blood altar battle before you get the chance to attempt the spirit beast fight.


And let's make sure that we gate half of them behind top tier maps, which are both already harder for most players, and far rarer ( more expensive ) to sustain as is.


This league gets better and better.
Prepare your puckers for the currency sinkhole of the century ( nets and maps ).

Reds pretty much wreck me most of the time for 10+ levels below me, and now they want to boost yellow difficulty too? Maps will probably become unplayable for me now...

Another example of poor QA. Isn't this also happened to Lich encounter in last league? Well at least GGG acted.

How would you do QA of an open economy? You can't accurately simulate a real economy of thousands of players using a handful of testers. And no, using some automated bots or something like that wouldn't be accurate at all.

The maps that are hard to sustain are only the highest tier ones. So the only spirit beast that should be affected by that is the T13 one. All the others are in lower tiers that are easy to keep up.

Get the nets out of our inventory.

damn, shut the hell up about that, for petes sake, what BS. dont want to carry nets, than dont fucking do it, simple as that.

can't care less about beasts and the recipes right now... please can you buff the drop of currency and maps to the previous values? (and if its no asking too much make public announcement about you KNEW and it was your mistake)

Its imposible to me even sustaint yellows, and the only reds i see even after running a lot of tier10, was in ulab.

The only way to be able to run some more yellows before running out of them was with chisel, zana and sextant... YELLOWS!!

Are you guys gathering data on the Alchemy Orb situation as well? There's a lot of speculation that net drops are messing with them from what i hear. They're nearly unsustainable in this league.

Awesome news, though I do think access to these realms set to a t13 minimum for one of them is way too high. All of the content should be available from atleast t5-t8 maps. Since that is mid tier maps.

It's indeed a very bad league for me so far in terms of currency and map drops. Nets are littering the floor but haven't found a single exalted on my 2 chars (lvl86 and lvl88). After finally getting a t11 map I chiselled, alch-ed and sextanted it and got 1 t7 map back. I'm trying to save up currency to buy the 6L chest I need for my build but without any significant currency drops or map sustain I'm progressing very slowly. There's of course plenty people spending many hours and still making currency but next to work and family I'm spending a lot of my free time on PoE and the only chance of getting better gear and being able to buy maps (since they don't drop) is by getting a very lucky drop which is worth several exalts.... but this hasn't happened yet. Well at least I have hundreds of nets in my stash so could catch some more beasts I guess...
