Feedback and Suggestions (Path of Exile 1) - Alt spamming for +2 arrows is the most miserable experience in POE, here's my suggestion - Forum

Dont understand why they on the one side campaign against bots/macros/robots/etc but on the other hand they design the game for those using them. I dont see any benefit to not having a programmable rolling bench or some such thing in the game. It would be really simple too - put item in, put currency in, click 'Run' button and it stops when it get something the filter triggers on. No wonder it's lost, it's in the middle of the jungle!

I thinks there should be automatized craft. Like spam alt until you get specific mod. Chance/scour until unqiue, etc.	Posted by exiled_cacodemon#4629 on Apr 27, 2023, 1:25:33 PM Quote this Post

According to craft of exile it takes 769 alterations and 164 augments on average to hit +2 arrows but I have spent 3000 alterations without hitting it. The issue is the time investment that it takes. It just takes too much time. It takes hours and hours that I could be farming. If I make 5 divines / hour grinding I'm losing 10 divines + whatever crafting costs I also have to pay. It's ridiculous. I would happily pay 2000 alterations to put a mod of my choice on a magic weapon just think GGG wants the game to be more like ruthless where getting even 100 alterations takes weeks imagine!

None of the high-end crafters farm their alts... They either have peons for that, or just buys them off the market.	Posted by Cyzax#3287 on Apr 28, 2023, 7:05:42 AM Quote this Post

If crafting was more about strategic planning and less about hideout manual labor, more people would be willing to try crafting themselves, rather than work as peons. And more independent sellers of good items on market is always better for end consumer. Worse for JeNebu though, but he'll endure, I am sure :)	Posted by Echothesis#7320 on Apr 28, 2023, 7:42:48 AM Quote this Post
Well, spamming alt's for anything in this game is quite a pain... so yeah... New mute system is terrible - no trade... Last edited by y3lw0rC#4020 on Apr 28, 2023, 7:49:31 AM	Posted by y3lw0rC#4020 on Apr 28, 2023, 7:46:28 AM Quote this Post

So it would spam currency until either the mod is hit or watchdog amount of your currency was spent. Make it available only after getting to maps, limit it to max 50/100 rolls per operation, so people won't gamble away their livelyhood all at once, it would already be large relief for crafters straining both their eyes and hands checking tooltip 2000 times. This is actually an awesome idea. +1 New mute system is terrible - no trade...
