its easier to learn Music Theory than your "Crafting System"

Yeah, it's not really crafting in the classic sense.

More like gambling that you need a PhD to figure out.

POE experience in that most people won't experience much of the game? Don't get me wrong, Ruthless does have appeal as a mode to play occasionally for me, but I can already tell that most end game stuff might as well not exist in Ruthless because I'll never make it. Getting bounced back to white maps constantly isn't very fun.

In Ruthless mode act 10 Kitava is the final boss – as it should be. Everything else, that so called "end game" only exists for the no lifers and streamers.

I kinda feel the same.
In my opinion, this is also the reason why people dislike the campaign. It's rather pointless, because it takes no effort to finish and only in maps do things get more interesting.
Add trading and there really is not much of a point.
I wonder why people ask for a campaign skip and not a skip to red maps straight away.

Mhh... if you have 1 high char already (and therefore currency), jumping from white to red maps isn't that hard. For the acts on the other hand, there are way less shortcuts, even if you have currency.

You can't outright ask for a skip to red maps. First you ask for an alternate leveling method. Then you ask what's the point; why not a skip to level 68. Then after that, you ask for a skip to red maps. It's a process :)

No, it's not. Not saying I'm a fan of all the RNG, but an hour in craft of exile is all you need to learn

For me personally it would be great if I would be allowed to create a naked lvl 68 char with quests done (and therefore skillpoints gained), AFTER I've done this with at least 1 char within the current league I'm playing the normal way.

But I think that's another topic than the "we need a master for understanding this" crafting system.

The PoE crafting system is like a casino, just pick the slot machine and spend money until it beeps.

my problem with the Crafting System accured when i started crafting a +1 +1 Wand for my Poison Exsang Build...
at first i have to "google" and use third party tools to find out what the best way is to craft +1 and apparently there is a 4 socket fossil combo
which is like a 1 in 4 chance. To find that out the odds are kinda to 0.000
not only does the game not show me which mods i can "possibly" get when i craft
nowhere "in the game" there is a spreadsheet of what mods i can get on an item
(diablo3, wolcen have these tabs where they show what mods can appear when)

and i wont start a topic about how the timeless jewel seeds are a joke on its own
whats the seed suppose to tell me?

anyways... i got help from a friend and told him that there is no way i can remember all these steps towards a desired item craft
its seriously no fun and tedious to look up poedb or google other stuff
for knowledge
it is more likely for me to learn music theory within 2 years than learning this crafting system with so many possibilities

Whats wrong with the crafting system? same guy made it that made the trade system LOL J/K.. PoE didnt even make the trade system haha!!!

not quite true, craft of exile your way...

You need to learn tags and weights...

After that it becomes more easy, but it still a lot of rng which is stupid since some of the items become really expensive to craft.
