Harvest could be worst league ever?

I am struggling to keep on playing. Lost almost all motivation. I don't think a Flashback will be coming, so I guess I will be done with the league SHORTLY(and we will see the next nerf batch in 3.12...). What a bland and boring League.


Agreed
The crafting options are a QoL improvement which can further be improved/adjusted to enhance the game crafting exp at every lvl.

The Farming aspect has concerns brought up in past Leagues that are again present. Few examples would be time consuming, convoluted, clunky, non- intuitive, on death effects etc.

The combination of the two in their entirety has led to THE Trade League becoming SSF and or STD, two options available to anyone at character creation.

On their own these points might not seem like much but together they are very concerning and have resulted in "unnecessary" negative effects.

I continue to enjoy the game either way but play a lot less this League.
this league is extremely boring.

I get the feeling that the most vitriolic ongoing criticism of Harvest is coming from people who abused cluster jewels last league and stacked heralds, and now can't find a 'high' higher than what they had last league.

Nope, it's not like that. I didn't abuse any kind of mechanic, at least not willingly . And yet I still don't like harvest :))...

Mostly because crafting is not my thing and I hate it that I am pushed in that direction.

Was supper fun to trade for the gear I needed, while others were getting the high exalts for the trouble, I was slowly but steady raising currency for other builds , other chars, maybe a HH.

Now I do not even know what exactly to abuse or sell :| since I got nothing.

Never invite Vorana, Last To Fall at a beer party.

Hi.
Nope, buddy, I've played a herald build, never; even during a Delirium, this present league is simply boring, it's out of H&S, in my opinion.
I love this game- my account dated from 2012 - but this path for me is a bad direction. It feels and looks like an Android stupid farming games. Sry... not for me

dead game

I've never been crazy about the league concept, but decided to stick it out to see how the updates would change things. I've come to the conclusion I will never like this league, but can understand why some people love it.

Besides being boring for me, I think there are a few key elements this league lacks that would have helped the non-crafting crowd enjoy it more.

1) Lack of in game ability to sell our crafts. Similar to selling a beast, there really should be some simple way to sell your crafts in game. I get that you can sell a seed. But I have no clue how to figure out what is worthwhile to sell vs. something I can track on poe.ninja.

2) Way to "farm" mechanic vs. "consume" mechanic. Delirium was the best I have ever seen for this. You had 1 currency type that I could naturally gather over time and either sell or run. Both were valid ways to make currency and as a player I could choose what worked for me.

3) There is no point in building incredible gear for this league. Compared to the past league there is no content pushing you to make your good character better. If this goes core in some form the options available would definitely be desirable. Just feel flat in this league since there is really no content outside of standard.


Crafting is good.
Harvest farming mechanic is loathsome.

Today I've logged in. Run about 15 maps with minimal drops and zero encounters. Then spent an hour staring at my very empty currency tab, staring at my empty grove, and switching between YT video to see how others have set their farms, forums and reddit. Then I sighed, logged out and launched another game. At this point I'm not sure I'll log into PoE again this League.
