Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

Instead of nerfing harvest that you need to do, remove harvest atlas talents, remove as zana mission. And base spawn of harvest in all zones, including zana mission maps by like 5% flat. 234xCause right now it's stupid most people running hamlet or valdo's zones mainly.

Another issue, if that's the issue deal with discord harvest.

You need to play the your actually game, analyze my data, even in in hc trade, i barely buy anything myself, don't abuse harvest at all, since i want fair game and when went into harvest abuse a bit, it wasn't that easy anyway, so I dunno what the fuck you are talking about. Most abuses how people farm with zana harvest missions with those extra zana mission talents and spaming 1 zone or some via discord or trade I guess.

Either way it's a longer conversation about harvest, but you are doing it wrong, you are clearly don't play the game, when devcs talking about slaming exalt with my eyes closed, I only did that in beta probably. Maybe in first few leagues.

The game isnt my game any more, its the players game.....I can't just come in and say nah this isnt my vision we're getting rid of it, because then we'll have no players left.

“TIMES CHANGE...”
I hope these blind devs and twitch welfare babies fade away along with the game.

Since that date I have farmed, traded, spent, or otherwise accumulated literally thousands of exalts. Despite that not-insignificant volume I am averaging less than 1 exalt slam per year.

That's less than 8 exalt slams in my entire poe career. Slams just aren't a good value proposition.

Played for 5 years+ never slammed an exalt even when i didnt know better... because you can easily tell its gonna be garbage.
I still dont understand why GGG dont want to move away from this horrible out of date crafting system.

What nerfs? I can make the same exact items as I will slightly harder sure I can literally make the same OP items without a sweat because I know how to play the game and I know harvest is OP AF still but unfortunately you apparently can't do that and go harvest is dead.

See that's hilarious go on make tantrums it won't make you learn any better on how to make items even when harvest is still as powerful.

exactly... you can!

doesn't mean other people can too!

yadi dadi dada

No they can too but once more you're throwing tantrums and don't wanna learn. It's the same thing slightly harder sure but nothing will change and that's the best part.

Blowing this out of proportion when people can still make there items just as powerful.

That's right, keep buying those MTX from GGG and trying to make them feel good about themselves. Nobody in their right mind agrees with you and it's going to be hilarious when they either cave in and you quit because other folks can gear up now, or you have nobody left to play with.

But yeah, I already voted with my wallet. I opted to walk off and explore my venues.

Actualy "vote with your wallet" does work... maybe not if 1-2 person does it but if many more does it will... i myself have decided never to spend any more money on path of exile or any game GGG ever makes. and good thing is there is better alternatives coming soon i can spend my money on.

Sure but what's it going to do in the long run? Nothing not a single dent will be made.

Harvest was the best addition to the game in years. It kept me playing this league longer than usually because crafting finally felt rewarding. I don't know to whom GGG wants to cater by nerfing it to the gound instead of making trading those crafts more accessible but I sure as hell won't spend a dime for the game anytime soon.

I was pretty satisfied at the beginning of this league with the content especially because it gave me a reliable way of improving my gear by farming specific parts of the content and without relying upon too many trades (which I leave to uniques only).

Harvest is (in my plan) the only way to perfect items for my build at the end of the league. That what I use it for. We are two/thirds of the league in and I used ONE harvest crafting to get a decent item that I would have had to otherwise buy from another player. I play 2-3 hours per day almost every day. Does one craft every 60 days of play seem too much to GGG?

Is a bunch of players abusing Harvest to create insane items? Yes. Like every league regardless of the content of the game. The only difference is that with Harvest you don't need 1000+Exalts to gamble and generate more Exalts, now everyone can create items of great value that they can use or sell using proper crafting and not gambling.

I can't talk for the whole community but I am sure that there are much more people like me that will just be negatively impacted by this decision which will have just the final effect of alienate players since GGG's "crafting" system sucks because it is just gambling. Harvest is the actual crafting method with Fossils crafting being something in between.

GGG, you had run your math and checked your data so I really hope you know what you are doing because the community seems quite outraged right now and it is from them that depends on your future (and your salaries).

Peace.
