Why do we need to grind so much !?
I am pretty casual these days and the grind to complete every single aspect of the game is getting out of my reach (minus minmaxing equipment/farming for HH which I never expect to achieve ever).
However this is fine. I can easily cut down on content to reach certain goals. I could drop most of these: -36 challenges(hard if SSF) -Unlocking atlas(time consuming but not hard). Probably the hardest to skip. Sirus/Maven and end game conquerors are all skippable/sellable if I wish to. -Blighted maps -Incursion -Delve -Heist -Beastiary stuff -Betrayal stuff -Abyss -Breach Domains -Legion -Perandus -Essence stuff -Uber lab trials/uber lab -LVL over 95 I mean the list is pretty long of skippable content. This means i can pick a set of the above and focus on those for a league then change it up for next ones. In trade league this works flawlessly as I can sell stuff to buy things I am missing. In SSF things get harder as you need most of the mechanics to complete your gear (unless you can do with lesser gear to challenge yourself). If you are a completionist then yes. This game requires time/effort. Isn't that fair though? Last edited by arknath#4740 on Apr 12, 2021, 5:22:40 AM

" this is what you´re supposed to do from an economical standpoint anyway, and that´s even more so after 3.13 - with the atlas points its more valuable to focus on the atlas regions and mechanics that you are investing in, getting them more often, getting better loot/drops out of them etc and just skip the ones you are not interested in. |

Thought you should know that, no one is forcing you to play every content.

" and your point here is... ? Harvest nerf was bad but needed. It made everything else in the game pointless because harvest was just soooooooooo good. GGG had to or nerf harvest or buff everything else. The first option was easier. Btw you dont need to "grind" to mirror tier items in your 10 slots to be able to beat the game. Reasonable stuff + good build + good player (watch out your flasks) is more than enough. and by the way, wondering "why we need to grind so much?" in a ARPG game its like wonder "why do I have to use my brain?" while playing chess. how boring and small. You're playing a RPG game. Of course you was waiting for my reply because the answer to your question is obvious. lol My end, it justifies my means, All I ever do is delay, My every attempt to evade, The end of the road And my end....

Learn to play the game and do the things and ONLY the things you enjoy in the game.
Stop trying to compete with others in a PvE game that resets every 3 months. Unless that is what you find fun then do it. Sounds like you're burning yourself out by trying to maintain on the absolute bleeding edge when that is just a fool's errand. |

" PoE is super mature or bloated depending on your point of view. But literally everything is skippable if you trade. Just get some currency and buy gear for a cheap meta. SSF it's mostly skippable too with harvest. Harvest kinda broke the experience of game. Like you could skip mines...what do you need resonators/fossils for with item edit crafting? I was happy when they nerfed it because it opens rest of game up. Maybe. Maybe not nerfed enough. We shall see. Reforges are still extremly broken on certain tagged items. Like I will be making a crusader/edler explody +1 gems Lock prefixs Reforge crit crit crit GG chest Adds will be extremely broken on rare weapons and cluster Jewels. Like add crit after you got high tier phys weapon. Or add phys on OP mods like overlord. What you can't make is a chest like this anymore because you cant just add crit and reforging would erase Frenzy... Anyway I hope they nerf it enough. Git R Dun!
