Actual crafting not being added to the game immediately. Massive dissapointment.
" Harvest killed neither. Harvest actually gave players more reasons to grind, and more reasons to seek knowledge. Was the potential of harvest crafted weapons too high? Arguably, but that's beside the (your) point. Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

Sigh.

What are you sighing over just fossil craft.
I don't know if you people pay attention to the plus and minuses of each fossil but they should look very familiar... because they use the same exact tags that harvest crafting uses. |

" Except it doesn't work like that. Even when delve was the main league, you didn't get nearly as many fossils/resonators to come close to how much you could craft with harvest. This meant that you were forced to trade in bulk to gain the ability to start crafting. This was the enjoyable part of harvest crafting, you didn't have to sit in trade windows to gamble. You played the game and earned it yourself. And you didn't have to get super lucky to find an exalt of some kind. It was frequent and deterministic. |
|
" Fossils are way more common than the harvest exalt crafts you're talking about dafuq. 99% of the fossils are in side areas in delve, if you're not using flares/dynamites you're going to get less than 5 fossils then entire league. |

Delve league itself fossils were common enough to make pretty good items if you could select the right mods and the fossils required weren't too rare, path farming without clearing you could get a good 50~ of whichever fossils were related to that particular path per hour.
Now it really isn't comparable though, most walls don't have fossils behind them and its very rare you find fossils on regular paths. I'd love to know the stats on it but I suspect an overwhelming amount of fossils available currently come from other league mechanics rather than delve itself. The point of all that is fossils aren't common enough to be comparable crafting, less powerful as well. I actually wish fossils maintained their ease of access especially after they semi gutted them by removing all the fossil specific mods. |

" It definitely shouldn't be comparable to harvest crafting. Harvest crafting is just way over the top. Some slots (I'm looking at you, boots) have such an easy path to mirror tier state. I dunno fossil crafting looks pretty good still to me. I made this last night after 14 attempts. I was really hoping for +level to all skill gems and gain phys as extra fire damage, but I'm perfectly ok with settling with t1 crit multi, t1 fire damage to spells, and passable fire damage + cast speed. A weapon like this can still probably sell for a couple exalts even in sc trade league. |

yeah you can make some great stuff with delve crafting its probably more in line with the power of crafting they actually want, just don't think its really comparable with the harvest crafting which is very specific and lets you make stuff you'd never see organically whether you were rolling for it or not

[Removed by Support] Harvest crafting as the op said is how it always should have been. Any moron that thinks it was good before has a gambling issue. It was never crafting before it was gambling. Plain and simple. I had quit poe because I was over ggg's trash system of nerfing any build that was popular to force people to play other styles. If they say things were over powered and that's why nerfed them, they are flat out liars. They added stat sticks, nerfed them, added cluster jewels which are far and away more powerful. Its just a bs cycle. GhazyTv said it himself. The only reason I played poe again was because of this leagues crafting. I will not be playing any league that doesnt have this crafting in this exact form. Now that we have seen how it always should have been. It only highlights how absolutely trash regular poe crafting was.
