Actual crafting not being added to the game immediately. Massive dissapointment.

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2924277/page/1

Let's be real Harvest crafting is what actual crafting should be, not that awful RNG clown-fiesta we call "crafting system" now. It shouldn't even be called "Harvest crafting", it's just Crafting, actual crafting.


There are still plenty of hard to make "mirror-tier" (and that what "rich people gear" standard should be, not just usable Tailwind-Elusive boots with move speed and some life or something) items incredlby hard to make such as HoT staves or phys weapons.

"Crafting" next League gonna feel absolutely terrible, just like it always did for 99% of players. So many people finally get to enjoy "crafting" for once and GGG takes it away. Crafting was fun for once. :/

P.S. For people who are still confused about that aspect. If not 100% of it deterministic it doesn't mean that "Harvest crafting is RNG too." It's not.

Crafting with Fossils / Essences / awakener orb / alt regal + multimod are still very viable.

Next league is certainly going to have to be a doozie to make me feel like my items are powerful and valuable.

But only if you trade for the materials.
I haven't found a single essence monster I could corrupt to one of the desirable essences, for example. And multimodding? I have found 2 exalts this whole league. If it weren't for the garden, I wouldn't have crafted anything this league, as usual.
Gamble-crafting is just waaaaay too expensive for people who don't enjoy trading or play PoE as a job. And if you don't mind trading, then you don't need to be able to craft gear and we're back to "gather currency so you can buy the gear you'll never find yourself". Jeezus, that sucks in a loot-lust game!

Not sure what you are trying to say. You found 12 Exalts? Good for you.
You play a hell of a lot more than me or 99% of players. You have a lvl100 char this league, you've ground out the map tiers, etc...
If you don't have absolutely fantastic gear after that much play time (and skill+experience, I assume, since you're also from 2013), then the game would be completely useless to 98% of the player base.

So what was the point you're making?

I've played a lot this league, about 6 full days' worth, which is pretty crazy for a game next to a full time job and a real life. And I have not found enough currency to attempt gamble-crafting. I think this is not sensible in a game and only harvest crafting made it balanced.
And no, I've not found enough annul+augment seeds for even a single mirror worthy piece of gear. That's fine, I just slowly improve my gear as I find seeds. To get mirror worthy gear I would need to trade for seeds. Maybe then it is too easy, like many people say. But without trading for mats, it certainly is not OP.

tbh they should have spawned em harvest mobs randomly in maps and have em drop crafting mods that way. league probably would have been saved that way for a lot of people.
3.26 when?

As much as I don't mind the current implementation I do think that would have gone better for most people. So long as those still weren't tradeable I could see that being reasonable if they ever decide to re-implement harvest in a meaningful way (not like they gutted synthesis please)
There's no powercreep here. Creep implies it's slow and could be overlooked, this is a full out sprint.

I've played 6 days and 15 hours this league. I was level 100 after 5 days dude.

I tried the game in 2013, but I didnt realy start playing untill harbinger league.

I have a full time job, a wife and a son aswell :)
