Is Stasis Prison the most expensive unique item to ever exist?!

Remember that the prices you see on the trade site are what the item is NOT selling for. Also remember that the currency value changes with time. They've upped the drop rate of exalts with Heist... so they're worth less than they used to be. Comparing today's prices with prices from two or three years ago is not going to work.


Heist is not where the bulk of exalts come from. Far more come from Delerium and common map drops and Scourge maps this league than Heist, by at least a 5:1 ratio.


I meant that the uptick in drops seemed to start around the time Heist was launched.


All leagues after Harvest have had substantial increases in EX.

Delerium is the most reliable generator though, offering 10 stacks.

That item is great! If you use it, you can only die to one shots.

I don't remember what it cost, but Atziri's Disfavor in Ambush/Invasion had insanely low surprise and you had to have one in stash at the end of the league for hitting 8/8 challenges. Currency availability has changed a bit since then but I suspect that it cost more in terms of player time to achieve the necessary currency than Stasis Prison does.
The price of the item "should" be under 300ex right now, not the ~750ex that one would assume it's currently selling for.

The main issue is that nobody is running the content and few people can actually run the content. Also that the item isn't so exciting that you'd go out of your way to farm it. A defensive item in a competitive slot. Zero builds would blow even 300ex on this except as a showcase.
Won't stay like that.

Imho over 80ex the price is scuffed. Next league people will definitely aim toward farming that content. Yes the chest is extremly strong but it's a defensive chest, nothing particulary high end without double corruption stuffs. It is not on par in terms of power level with elevated rare chests(thinking about vaal regalias int stacking, frenzy on hit, extra curses, base crit and so on) and you need to get to pretty high dps and base ehp anyway to clear content where its sustain is relevant.
THe price of chase item has gone through the roof honestly....

Where speaking of hundred of exalts, its just plain crazy.

Like the new unique they just announced is an amazing unique, but again another unique I'll never to be able to afford to use and this make me feel sad.

I understand the principle of chase unique but their prices are so high its just plain demoralizing especially as they are super fun to use and build around.

I don't see much talk about it, yet it's currently nearly twice the price of Mageblood and nearly five times the price of the Squire (both of which are talked about WAY more!). It's also over twice the price of a 1-passive Voices and even more expensive than the recently won Demigod's Authority! Neither HH nor Badge of the Brotherhood during its heyday ever came close to these prices. So what gives? I know it's good but is it really that good?! And if it is, then how come there isn't as much chatter about it?

Edit:- To clarify, I mean a generic unique. Not an item with a specific corruption or shaped or extremely rare combination of mods (Watcher's Eye) or alt art or any other special cases. Think HH, Mageblood, Badge of the Brotherhood, The Squire, etc.


I always disliked how you'd copy paste stuff from reddit to maintain some kind of "active" status here on the forums.

This one got them all beat. You didn't even bother linking to the reddit thread. Just copy pasted the title and the op as if you came up with that all by your lonesome.

Lmao! That's MY thread. ;) I didn't link it cos there's no one else to give credit to. If you bothered to follow me properly instead of jumping to conclusions, you'll find I ALWAYS give credit to others where appropriate. Even on Reddit if I've added ideas from others to the post, I credit them.

For example - https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/s0u8fm/besides_removing_prophecy_how_about_combining/

I don't copy stuff over from Reddit to maintain any kind of "active" status lol, I could easily find stuff on the front page to repost every single day if I wanted that. Plenty of art, plenty of build or item showcases, plenty of discussion, plenty of personal tales (top story atm is of someone's relative sending them PoE-related baby gifts for instance). I copy it over if I feel it deserves to be widely known or discussed. And I don't just take from Reddit, for instance this post links the content creator directly - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3223619

Information can be big stuff - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3074547

or small - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2943221

and it's not just all Reddit posts - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2937599

plus some are my own guides - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3036741

It might behoove you to consider alternative explanations instead of latching on to what suits your cynicism most. What do I gain by being "active" pray?

That's why most of my reposts, especially if they're not my own creations, are informational. I don't just share whatever I find cool, I share news and discoveries. And I've been doing it for years bub, pretty much ever since Mirrorgate revealed just how much information-hoarding can spoil this game for everyone. Here's a little history lesson in case you're not familiar with that controversy - https://youtu.be/ak4FIMJ-MuE

A lot of them are from Reddit simply because, as I've said before to the many bitter denizens of these forums, Reddit is a very productive part of the community. Now run along. Whether you like me or not doesn't concern me. My threads achieve their goal regardless of what my reputation may be.
