Divine Orbs ruining the market

One issue of divine orbs being so rare is they create a feast or faminie effect.

I was completely broke till about level 45 then a divine orb drop which I traded for like 75 exalted orbs at hte time and all the sudden I was rich. I had maybe 7 exalted total before that.

I was able to pimp my gear completely out and have tons of exalted left over too.

Is there some option to upgrade orbs or something in this game? i.e. x exalted orbs melded into a divine? Or even x rare equipment/items melted to a divine?

trade cannot be fixed by the game unless you forbid trading, which they won't - thats what ssf is for.

Ssf has the same drop rates so while you would be correct in a normal situation you are wrong in this one

Increasing the drop Rate of currency wont fix anything...prices will adjust accordingly. You should Look for Solo Self Found Builds then which normally Work good as well.

The solution to runaway inflation from bots and scammers is to have NPCs sell currency for gold at a fixed price, in limited quantities per day, and set the rates on the currency exchange arbitrarily.

Anyone who wants to exchange currency at a different rate can use trade chat.

just my opinion, as a dad myself with work and so on. i hate people degrading others as "streamers and unemployeds" to selfinflate themself when they realize they cant perform in a competetive surrounding.

but on the topic. you are in campaign and try to assemble mid mapgrear, competing over the item with all the others in the economy. you dont look for gear to beat the content you fight but follow a guide.
the problem is, while you grind 1 ex in your 2 hrs, someone with 4 hrs a day grinds 4+ ex, he will always outspend you if you compete for the same item. if you double the dropchance he will outspend you even more.
just to realize, the ring will go up in value cause the economy spirals with the inflation of currency.

dont worry, if you take poe1 trade as a refference, the prices of gear, uniques in particular go down after a while. the core gamers have them and supply goes only up (in softcore).

and to the idea of the droprates, they might need tuning, but without a league mechanic to push another layer of rewards in they just might seem low. if prices for items drop to much you get the old poe1 economy where highlevs dont pick up most rares and filter out lower currency.

This is not a PoE2 thing, it's a general problem of trade-Farpg's.
When you increase the Droprate of Divine Orbs, the prices just go up too. It´s the normal supply&demand system and you cant change this.
To lower the prices you'd have to increase supply, making rare uniques more common f.e. Its just what it is, the more time you invest, the richer you get. And you wont get mirrortier by investing 2 hours a day. (me neither, i guess =)

Sure but if more drops then at least you can use them, especially true for SSF.

It is not hard to get divines. Just run your maps. Trade your currency... SMH

Trading isn't the way to go anyway. How is that fun? Isn't really an accomplishment?

Get rid of "currency". Trade items with items. One man's trash is another man's treasure. Keep the orbs purely for crafting and up all droprates. There you go.
