Drop Rate was perfect now the magic has gone.
I was very happy with the decision by GGG to make drop rates less common it really nailed the excitement of finding loot again in a video game
I played today for 4 hours and was suprised i got four uniques in that time and way over 20 rare's i was very dissapointed to be honest the magic that you had caught was gone in a flash, i wish sometimes you wouldnt listen to the playbase on certain topics. Please reconsider your decision. Last edited by Boomshannka#0860 on Dec 11, 2024, 12:33:07 PM Last bumped on Dec 12, 2024, 6:37:06 PM

noone forces you to pick that stuff up, if you like to put your balls in a vice and tighten up the screws just a bit more, just dont pick up the drops ...

yeah GGG needs to buff it way slower.. it's standard not a temporary league.
If this becomes the average expectation, this will become another zoom and then we need ruthless or poe3. |

" I played through entire act I and II on cruel difficulty and found zero exalts, zero uniques, and not a single upgrade for any item. I already spent all my currency on a big weapon upgrade in Act III Normal, so I had no currency left to buy or craft anything. Your personal experience could differ alot from someone else's experience. Thankfully, GGG is using statistics to actually see what is happening and they're making decisions based on that. |

initial drop rate was basically ruthless mode.
I think we're at a nice middle ground now between the lootsplosions of poe1 and the desert of non-drops that is ruthless mode. You know droprates are bad when you kill an act boss and get 3 white items and a blue flask. |

The drops are weird. Some people seem to find a lot of useful gear. I play hardcore so I roll a lot of characters. I have noticed wildly different drop rates from character to character. One character finds currency and rare items. Another I have to use the shops/stash just to fill empty slots.

I didn't notice any changes with the update. I was getting exalts left and right in campaign before the change and still getting them after.

Lol. I got excited about the drop increase, made a new character and played until lvl 38 and my gear is mostly under lvl 10. Tried to get all the socket mats I could and in two days I've gotten 2 sockets on my gear. Crafting currency in still very hard to get. Let's not pretend like it's anywhere near the level of POE 1. Like not even the same universe.
