I believe the answer you were looking for is "No. This was done in PoE1 and it did not break the economy. I clearly don't know about this tried and true gameplay mechanic and it shows."

Also, have you checked market prices lately? Are we playing the same game?

this thread is pure spam

LMFAO. Remind me again - how much was magablood in recent leagues vs when it first came out?

That is your comparison? So open build items are your claim to ruined economy?

Dude, you might as well go back to setting mjolnir's on crucible and saying "This broke the economy because specific builds were highlighting and duping exalts."

There's always been a flavor of the month in PoE1.

You just invalidated your whole post. You basically said "I'm the fun police." and "If it's something I want, then it should be cheap."

That's your entire argument, summed up. Fun police. Want cheap stuff.

How very casual of you.

yes, that's my claim, when we had hoards of casuals running around in the most prestige and elite unique item, all because GGG decided to open the gates to it to people that should be extremely luckily if they find a tabula.

"crucible" was just one league. Thanks god it did not go core. Here we're talking about the whole philosophy of the whole game.

And no, I'm literally opposite of "If it's something I want, then it should be cheap.". I'm "if something is elite it should be only accessible to elites, people willing to grind, grind, grind, grind and improve their skills, not launching path of souls on Saturday late afternoon and crying they can't melt endgame and get the most valuable items.

Both games are "difficult" in their own way, but PoE 2 is a different "kind" of difficulty than PoE 1.

PoE 1 didn't really rely that much on timing and dodging. You could "out-gear" fights. In PoE 2, you can't really do that.

Personally, that's what I don't like about it. I prefer to out-gear fights rather than out-play them mechanically.

Well you really can out-gear fights. 99% of the complaints about difficulty in acts are easiliy solved by trading for a better weapon.

I play SSF and I could care less about economy and what other players have.

And you want a medal? Or force everyone else to play SSF once casuals destroy the economy?

You clearly have zero idea about what casuals do in the game.
No casual will grind stuff for hours to sell it.
And if something becomes widely available for people who play trade leagues, I don't see anyone who loses in that situation other than so-called 'elitists' who suddenly feel that their pixels are diminished in value.

A prediction for you: You're likely to grow increasingly disappointed as development continues, possibly even disliking PoE2 by its official release.

GGG has a consistent pattern of starting with massively overtuned content and gradually adjusting toward what they consider optimal balance over time - that's a key purpose of early access. If you're genuinely expecting this to be "Path of Souls," you might want to reconsider that expectation.

Yeah I was gonna say. In PoE1, the game was a lot harder back in the days of closed beta. Anyone else remember when reflection used to be auras and applied instantly? Absolutely bricked any builds that went too high in DPS. GGG nerfed and eventually killed them outright in the following years. Summoners had terrible passives back then too so your zombies would crumble at the slightest hint of difficulty, especially against certain rogue exiles such as Orra Greengate or Igna Phoenix. Now minions are in a much better state and can tackle all except the most broken content.

I still remember when Malachai was one of the hardest bosses to fight, both in merciless acts, and pinnacle maps. Now he's a joke.

Anyone who thinks PoE2 is going to stay this difficult is going to be in for a rude awakening.
