Was harvest over nerfed?
|
Yes. I gave it the benefit of the doubt, but after no lifing it for the weekend to see what I could get I am done with this game. It's stale and boring and any real progression SSF sucks w/out harvest. Better games ahead, I'm done with poe at least until next winter. We'll see.

Well tbh would have been better if GGG just removed all rerolls/augments/removes etc., and just left only these other crafts, like fossil/essence, swaps, map/scarab splits, scarab upgrades, offering stuff, socket color/linking, etc.
Then when you get a harvest you at least know you get good stuff, instead of 2 targeted chaos orbs. |

I think the state of it now is fine.
Small upgrades/spams. Way to improve your atlas experience, implicit jewels, upgrade scarabs and essences. It's worth doing, but not spending too much time on . [3.9]Hasunic's Toxic Rain Trickster: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2712106

Nerfs would be fine if Chris stuck to his word about augments and tier 4s wont be nerfed in quantity. But they were BIG TIME!!!
I've been in 50 harvest since patch and ZERO augments or tier 4s LOL! Trying to augment crit to this staff twice after I scour suffixs - thats all. I was a proponent of nerf now not so sure because nerfs are not as described anymore. Way over nerf...as in not worth even doing....especially paying the 12C like I did. Total waste of cash Git R Dun! Last edited by Aim_Deep#3474 on Apr 26, 2021, 10:31:26 AM

Harvest was a problem, but not because of the deterministic crafting. Harvest was a problem because it was the ONLY source of deterministic crafting. Keep that crap in the game, but spread it around to other league mechanics. If you couldn't just hyperfocus on one mechanic, but had to spread out your time on the others, then it would be balanced. The way it is now is just ridiculously in favor for rich players. They can just go in TFT and buy that 5 ex phys aug or w/e they need.

" You'd still be damn near required to use the TFT discord in the trade environment though since drop rates are balanced toward what traders can pull off when they pool their resources. Sure you didn't find a phys slam, but someone did, and for 3ex it can be your phys slam. As long as TFT is the best way to get your best in slot gear, Harvest hasn't been nerfed enough. I'm not sure where we stand on that, might be build dependent or slot dependent. I'm fine with the current iteration of Harvest other than that caveat. I don't think I'd pay 12c for it but I've made hundreds of chaos rolling cluster jewels and stygian belts. One harvest yesterday gave me 5 new red maps for my atlas. Others have given winged scarabs and upgraded a stack of deli orbs to be worth 6c more per orb (I profit 30c - meme aside). I go in to the Harvest I know I'm gonna get some value. Like others have said just don't get bogged down agonizing over what to do with every craft. Get in, slam some stuff, get out. I don't normally play late into the league but I could see myself starting to skip it in month 2/3. |

Has made rolling white jewelry a bit easier for early mapping.

" Thats why best way to nerf it woulda be BoA items touched by harvest... Now, with current implementation, not only will TFT be used even more by the elite end gamers because tier 4s and augs simply do not drop in any quant to make anything ,the system is useless now to SSF and barley trade crowd. I can't think of a worse way to nerf it and opposite of design dialog Chris put forth in nerf manifesto. If you want to see some data I gave anntari some chaos to run over 150 harvests in standard in a row and it's shockingly bad https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3085966 Git R Dun!

I think it's obvious at this point that it was.

It was not nerfed it was completely gutted. As I've said in other threads: clearly ggg does not want us interacting with the mechanic and needs to grow a sack and just remove it since they obviously don't want players to have access to it.
At this point its basically shitty fossil crafting but more time consuming and random as far as what you can do. Its a waste of time now. (سಥ益ಥ)س (سಥ益ಥ)س (سಥ益ಥ)س (سಥ益ಥ)س (سಥ益ಥ)س (سಥ益ಥ)س (سಥ益ಥ)س
