Bye Bye POE

Campaign ending at level 70 is not a problem...
what is a problem is path to gear upgrades that are next to impossible if you don't trade and play 24/7 to get the currency for it...

Until GGG decides to make trade optional and add deterministic crafting currencies, it is indeed bye bye PoE...

Other problem is as said before, you need basically every immunity to not die and then you're outpowered and incapable of killing monsters. There is an obvious balance problem between monster health and player power.

But hey, it is not like they have taken out 80% of player power to gate it behind late endgame in 3.14 -> 3.18.... (Ooops, they did !!)

I am suprised that you don't see the absurd irony in your own post.

How come upgrades to your gear are impossible to obtain, but possible to trade for? Where are those people getting their items from I wonder!?

Deterministic or Overly-deterministic crafting currently existing in the game in order of actual expense

-> Crafting bench (For basics)
-> Essences (You literally GET the mod! It doesn't get more determinstic than that!)
-> The good old ALteration+Augment spam
-> Harvest for a single mod
-> Harvest for "Reforge more likely" (Rakushi's shield was made that way btw)
-> Fossils in 4-Slot resonators for blocking mods (Varies depending on what fossils used)
-> Cannot Roll Attack / Caster mods + Exalts in many, many scenarios
-> Can have multiple crafts mod at the work bench
-> Cannot roll prefix / suffix and Veiled Chaos orbing
-> Similiarly, with Aisling
-> Imprinting and otherwise limited ways to craft via beastiary (-Prefix +Suffix as an example or "free" ex on influenced mods)
-> Using awakaner orbs
-> Using harvest to fracture, or to remove add a mod

Damn, that's at the top of my head, and I feel like I am missing a few.

The part that you NEED immunity for anything is just an excuse for something else their lacking. The worse of a player you are, the more safety cushions you need I suppose...

Rest is not really worth responding to, sorry Exile...
