Can we please stop pretending that Map drops are OK in League?

Great suggestion. "Just get 100 completion bonus when it's mathematically impossible to sustain tier 3 maps". That makes a lot of sense. If your brain is backwards.

Buy maps on poe trade. What part of that don't you get.

looooooooooooool, just looked at your characters. SSF HC. I mean, are you a masochist? You don't get to complain. You wanted to do things the painful hardway, well there you go.

This league post nexus map buff should be incredibly easy for sustain in SSF. The caveat being you actually have to run your pieces in the nexus and a lot of people seem to hate that.

I'm not complaining at all, I'm enjoying this league very much thank you. I'm just providing support for the OP's point that map sustain is mathematically impossible even for white maps. And being in SSF means my data point is free from trade pollution.

" trade pollution"...your logic is terrible. It's a trading game. Drops are designed around the fact. SSF is not the default game mode and is for people like you that like it for....whatever the heck reason that is.

OP the problem is not the map drop rate but your lack of an adequate strategy, at least if you are playing in a trade league.

Do the following to get to T16 and chain T16:

Until your atlas is reasonably completed:

1. Sell all maps that you have completed.
2. If you have uncompleted maps: roll them apropriately and run them.
3. If you do not have any uncomleted maps: buy the cheapest uncompleted map, roll it and run it.

Once your atlas is reasonably completed:

1. Sell all maps of T15 and lower.
2. If map prices are high: Elder your prefered map via Zana and run it.
3. If map prices are low: buy T16 maps (rareley needed) or use those that you drop.

Done. This even worked with the lower drop rates at the start of the league. I had a completed atlas by day three and made a ton of currency selling surplus maps. It also worked all the leagues before this one.

I'm not sure why you're so mad, but I'm just stating facts, which is map sustain is impossible even at white maps without buying maps. Not once have I said that it's bad or that GGG should change it, so if you just want to argue like the angry person that you are, please find somebody else :)

Good for you. That doesn't change the fact. The loot and weighted affixes are literally designed around the existence of trading. The game is not designed around SSF, it's designed around trading. I wish I was wrong, but I'm not, and I wish it wasn't the case but it is. Enjoy SSF but don't argue facts, you look dumb.

"mad"? ok, now i'm like 99% sure you're just a troll. Map drops are fine if you learned how to bloody play. Also, the game is NOT designed around SSF.

Grab a clue, sheesh.

Map drops are fine. This league however is absolute trash. Practically every interaction I have with the Nexus makes me want to toss my PC out my window even though it's showering me with loot. That's how bad it is. It still blows my mind that GGG was so excited about this league and actually thought that it would be successful. The wings and the fact that casters are so fun right now are literally the only two reasons why I'm playing still.

I mean, you sound aggressively upset that other people enjoy different things from you, which is a clear sign of insecurity.

I'm repeating myself, but not once did I say map drops are "not fine", so I'm wondering why you feel the need to yell at me that map drops are fine? I already agree.. so calm down maybe?

I'm just stating facts that you can't sustain even white maps without trading.
