Remove portal scrolls like POE 2

Im sitting here practicing leveling for the next season and its pretty darn annoying having exit to character selection when I want to go back to town since not enough portal scrolls drop early game and im not going to use what little currency I have to buy some. It seems weird that we still need them and since yall decided not to add them into POE 2 it makes me think you guys realized how pointless they are...

Additionally scrolls are not interesting and are more of a chore baked into the game. by yellow maps maybe even before i would say most long time players have these items hidden on their filters and instead just sell transmutes/armor scraps/weapon stones to get scrolls of wisdom and then convert those to portal scrolls...so if the item is so annoying in the early game because it doesnt exist and so annoying in the end game because it clogs up your filter you have to ask is there a reason for it to exist.

PROS
- one less thing to manage in your inventory
- one less thing to have to pick up off the ground
- one less thing on the loot table
- one less thing to eventually hide on your loot filter

Cons
- none that I can think of

Agree 100%
I am strongly opposed to the PoE 2-ification of PoE 1.

Not everything from PoE2 is a bad idea. This is one such example.
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build!

Yeah, Portal Scrolls can go away now.
There are things in the game that do require them. (same with the auto identify)

Divination cards, vendor recipes, vendor items so i don't think it is quite as simple as just turning them off. (ohh and the portal skill gem)

And as far as i know PoE2's version works similar to the skill gem where there is a casting animation before the portal is open, WHICH is shit for "hard core" players
