Loot Drops are unrewardingly low
It's why im out, not sure about anyone else but levelled to 80 roughly and had 0 upgrades, tried spamming the trade forum to be met by silence.
With no Auction House to try and improve my character, no actual way of upgrading outside of pure luck and simply no reward structure I got bored. There is no reason to spend 39 seconds killing a lightning resistant yellow mob while playing lightning build, likely if i stuck with it i would slowly grind a random Div drop or something, get a build going and id blast. But the time from now til then, unrewarding and not fun. | |
I dont even know what i am supposed to do in this game anymore.
I dont get any meaningful loot, have not enough regal or ex to even throw them at gamba crafting, changed my gear when i started maps, i am now at t14 and no further improvment of my gear, its just painful as hell and unfun. Took in Atlas "Local Knowledge" in hopes i get more currency and maybeeeeee few greater jeweller, but nah nothing. I play, eat shit, get frustrated, it feels like unfun work. Dunno, motivation to play is just gone |

" Legit just started running white t14 maps to grind to 100 cuz the loot is terrible might as well get level 100 on easier maps and not die. |

" keep going it gets worse. im at t15s and blast them EASILY with bosses and full of mods, but cannot make progress towards any pinnacle content at more than a snails pace. So i feel like the game is telling me to just stop playing because otherwise its just running the same maps killing the same bosses |

All of the idiots screaming "nerf MF" "remove MF on gear" for about 3/4 of 0.1 are to blame for wasting GGG's time on making the game worse.
Next time, if you can't make a strong character, or figure out how to do a MF strategy that you saw a streamer do, pull yourself up by your bootstraps and try it yourself or don't have an opinion. Wasn't even the MF strategies that ruined the economy. It was the Temporalis dupe. Ya dopes. |

900% increased rarity times 0 is still 0.
I thought the loot was bad back in the closed beta test. But 0.1 loot was worse than the cbt. Now 0.2 loot is worse than 0.1. I'm expecting literally no loot in 1.0. |

I tried playing off meta build and doing SSF to just see how it went and literally hit a wall that I could not breakthrough once in cruel acts. Even refarming areas for rares got me nothing after a 2 days. I had to go back to trading what tiny amount of currency I had to get any resists lol. I tried everything from gambling, checking vendors after each leveling (in multiple towns). I think my drops were maybe on the unlucky side but it does not take much before you completely stall out unless you trade.
I think overall, I would be fine with slowing the game down (compared to POE 1) and lowering the drop rates a bit (compared to 0.1) but even ggg admitted they messed up. But I don't think they realize how much of a slog it turns into if you don't trade and are not playing a meta build. You can get away with not doing 1 but not both before you really slow down. |
