GET RID OF BOTS AND 3RD PARTY INFLUENCES

These bots and 3rd party programs/scammers, currency for cash advertising websites on global are killing your game before it even takes off.

Your market/ trade/ economy is absolute trash right now

God knows how many Bots are spamming your chats to make money off your own game and I wouldn't be surprised if some players are buying into it because your whole economy (pardon my language) is F***ed up right now.

I believe in POE's no pay to win philosophy and supporters pay for aesthetic skins etc. but by neglecting to protect your game from the aforementioned influences then you are indirectly going against your own gaming design philosophy and setting your game up for absolute failure.

There shouldn't be more active bots in a game than players and right now you are creating a gaming environment which promotes pay to win principles since no one is able to obtain in game currency easily through their own merit to match the pace of the bot markets buying and upselling 24/hr a day and ridiculous speed.

It is still early access but if this is not addressed soon your game will no longer be Your Game.

I can't even buy an upgrade for less than 5 divs a slot, and my gear is not that great. That's a huge problem atm. I'm level 90, and got most of my gear before inflation hit tenfold.

With ex orbs getting devalued, you figure more people would be using them to craft, and decent rares would be cheaper as a result of the cheaper cost to craft them, but the total opposite is happening because the market is being pumped by real money traders.

Blame the zoome-mappers and blame GGG for nerfing freeze instead of deadeye/stormweaver spark .. and ofc, group play is too OP for farming.

Or blame the botted programs that constantly search the trade, buy and resell for higher prices. And the bots that post on the trade site with terribly low listings that never respond to you. They do it so other people post their item at the same price and then bam they buy it. Then they take all their currency and sell it on RMT websites...

You can't google Path of Exile 2 without at least 1 ad coming up for RMT which is insane to me.

Has nothing to do with players who play the game fast but rather the bots that farm in-game currency through the tactics mentioned above & then sell it online.

While being at it, solve world hunger

Everyone should have some sort of legal "bot" to accept trades for us.
