The question here is "what makes you CONVINCED that they ARE doing it?"

because we can see what drops for them? also they want to keep them happy and playing for the full league. if they didnt swim in currency and showcase min maxed builds,or have all the chase toys to play with (mageblood HH etc) their stream would be boring and get less views

Most people in my guild, at least the more active ones have a net worth of at least 100ex. Not a single one of them streams.

Some ways you get rich super fast right now:

Chain running nem3 maps.

Currency flipping.

Rolling unique watchstones and sell them.

Running tons of maps just for beasts.

Selling harvest crafts on discord.

Running tons of simulacrums.

Doing tons of gem heists.

Thats just the first things I can think of.

Everyone can farm a HH in a week, only thing needed is game knowledge. This whole thread and other similar threads are basicaly just a bunch of people complaining about their lack of game knowledge without realising it.

in other words game is a full time job now? i'm sure if you no life the game you can farm a HH. the thing is we can see what streamers do and ho easily they get good drops. they are having fun while regular no lifers probably dont enjoy grinding all day

The game was always like that. If you want to get endgame stuff you have to play A LOT.

Streamers play a lot, more than most people, often 8 to 10 hours a day. Every arpg with random drops is a slot machine. The more often you pull the lever the more likley you get a decent drop.

I can play a lot because im self-employed so I can sneak in tons of hours between working. I got a house of mirrors card from stacked decks, 2 nurse cards from stacked decks, multible 2 to 5 ex gems from heist so many that I cant count them all, I got 2 or 3 10ex+ natural rare drops, I sold over 50ex in essences and fossiles alone.

To give you an estimate on how much I played, I only pick up transmute orbs when they drop in super big stacks from alva ect. like at least 20 orbs in a stack and I have almost 15k transmutes. The thing is I still do play a lot less than full time streamers.

this game has many ways to improve your chances to win the lottery such as
a.)invest more time
b.)gaining game knowledge and using it to the fullest
c.)apply a & b

The hilarious part is spending half an hour finding clips that don't actually prove/disprove your point

Meh please. It took me like 30 seconds scrolling in the streamer priority Reddit thread. Links of twitch clips are everywhere in that thread.

You were the one that said streamers requested access by providing their account names via Twitter, and is the entire reason for me posting those links. That was complete bullshit, and I provided the source(s). Anyone can read what we were talking about. You thought you were being clever and got clowned.

You played yourself bro, and my work is done.

I lost the way in this thread :))..

The question is not if they can ( cuz they definitely can and are entitled to it for whatever reasons they find fit), the problem is that in a game were equity should matter ( streamers play a lot they get more loot, no lifers get more loot bla bla bla) it really doesn't and GGG has proven several times that it doesn't, being it a marketing approach or anything else...

Streamer Luck shananigan:

Can they ? - Yes
Should they ? - Probably with the right given reasons
Will they ? - Yes was proven by this point with the right given reason.
Are they doing it constantly ? - Probably, Since all of the above show that if the given reason is satisfied they can do whatever they want.

The more important debate is:

Will you waste your time debating about this even if you cannot really pin point everything ? - Yes.

You are wasting your time debating if the grapes are bitter or not while streamers or no lifers actually try them...Why not try them yourself...Isn't this why you play the game ?

Probably in the past the game was easier because not so many stuff going around , nerfs and all that stuff...Now it's an endless time sink and even if someone get's the streamer luck he won't reach any kind of level anyway...

I think Alkaizer getting mageblood first week of the league from heist was a little suspicious. But overall, I think streamers have the same loot table as gen pop. They Just play way more hours than the average user and you only see a 30 second clip of their 14 hour stream.

It is quite not...he is the one streaming, but it could have happened to anyone.

P.S i think you are talking about the heist he did with a mageblood droping.

Mageblood is in the corepool, it could have happen to anyone...How many non streamers got it and probably left it on the ground...We cannot know for sure..

It's only statistics...

I dropped 2 mirrors by now...1 got me 3 builds cuz I didn't knew what I was selling at that point, 1 died near it...Is it streamer luck ? Don't think so, but it still could happen.

I think the statistics for dropping a mirror is somewere around the internet...

If you calculate that in 100.000 people playing someone is bound to drop it somewere.

One guild player of mine dropped a mirror from a t16 not juiced not nemesis not nothing, he just got it...


The core problem is not if GGG gives streamer luck to anyone, the core problem is that people do not want to waste time in the game anymore because the game doesn't appeal to casuals...It is only a time sink for people who make it either a job or don't have anything better to do...(Last league I didn't play cuz I switched jobs, guess what I had 150c imagine that...Even with streamer luck and 1 mirror drop I still wouldn't have played probably)

The pool drop is so diluted and so many players are dropping the game that it doesn't even matter that streamers get RNG from GGG...Most of the players won't even try to reach that level of time investment.

Comparing POE to real life, if you gather all the shit dropping around you will still get a good chunk of currency, but it won't matter, since the game is so gated around hard content that you cannot enjoy it with just doing chaos recipe and flipping small currency.

I find people's assumption that streamers are playing all by themselves quite amusing. They have followers who are more than happy to toss them stuff in hopes of currying favor. There's hundreds of people contributing to the success you see on YouTube. But all you see is the result of that.

I might be wrong, but I think Streamers cannot take or offer "handouts or service" anymore as part of ToS. I think it was some sort of RMT adjacent issue with their platform.

Edit: for clarity it has to be a reasonable trade or market value service. Cannot say I will do "x" if you sub to my channel, or link lotteries, etc..

They can't take handouts "on stream", says nothing about "off stream".
