POE Heading to D3 Land...please reconsider

"
I wasn't referring to this but to hearing it has something to do with uniques. If it exists those that know it are keeping it secret.


I was actually referring to a currency exchange recipe. Something along the lines of N GCP = 1 Exalt, or some intermediate path through regals or what not. I don't want to get too specific, but the whole reason to do it is to put a ceiling on the relationship between one currency and another.

That's not really going to change anything, to be honest. Unless the rates offered by vendor are better than what you can get by trade, which would be marketfixing to say the least.

A recipe that trades crap uniques for something more valuable, however, would do something.

I would come back to POE to play in this.

I thought this was going to address how maps are becoming inferno. A horrible gear check where the damage limits options to things that are borderline or blatantly OP. Leaving other builds to farm forever to get perfect gear just to be competitive.

I do agree completely. I remember finding useful rares of gneiss farming, doing maps with my MFer feels like I'm just farming alts very ineffectively.

Also if mobs didn't have such high damage or EHP weapons with less than 200% IPD and gear w/ less than 2 res + high life would be useful.

Again, I just don't know what's going on anymore. I came to POE because it had build variety, I felt powerful, and a dynamic end game. Build variety is becoming more and more limited, melee is almost pointless. Even with my lioneye's build I never really felt powerful, just didn't feel incredibly weak like most of my other builds do. The end game is dynamic but I have yet to run a single map over lvl 70 in OB.

Haven't run a single map due to not finding one? Not being geared highly enough (making too many alts)? Or just no interest in the grind and annoyance of it?

But yeah, I remember reaching inferno in D3, and thinking "this isn't too bad, but kinda bland", and having to spend a while upgrading my gear and using a specific setup to be able to survive.

And I remember in CB playing the same 2 acts 4 times was acceptable, yet now I feel playing act 3 3 times is a chore. I'm not sure why, but act 3 feels specifically unfun for some reason I can't explain. Sort of like how I hated act 4 in D3 (and act 3 in D2)
Well written OP, well written...
D2 was ARPG masterpiece, PoE is a parody.

Kurast was a bitch to progress through, the entire Act was a freaking maze riddled with stupid goddamn pygmys.

I traded for days... farmed for weeks... to get over 300% IIR and 150% IIQ

I CANNOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE in farming with that toon or my 0%iiq 0%iir Alts.

This RNG is so bad the only way people can compete is to buy orbs and gear from 3rd party sites. This is the cold hard truth. If you are not a player that has no life and cant devote 10+ hours a day but still want to compete at a fun and entertaining level? You have to cheat.

We dont want everything given to us. We want fair and balanced(thanks fox news) Dont give us our cake and let us eat it too just let us have a damn bite of it. The occasional sprinkle is not going to keep us playing. We want to be rewarded for our time effort and skill.

With maps, I'm trying to build a base so I don't drop down, you know to fight RNG, but not finding enough mid maps to build that base. Also whenever I do higher maps I get creamed. I don't do cookie cutter builds, I'm trying to make them, and failing horribly. All of these builds work on paper then a white mob does 4k damage and I'm left wondering how the fuck I prevent that in self found gear.

In CB I was mostly self found unless I found something really nice but I enjoyed crafting my own stuff. In OB I feel like progression is hell if I don't trade.

I've had the same experience farming. I rushed an alt toon I'm working on through cruel today, found a unique in the 2 hour rush I did. 3 hours with 120% IIQ and 250% IIR and not a single unique. I swear to god they changed the drop rates when they changed the chaos recipe. It's so noticeable since then.
