Nothing is stopping you from playing like SSF in non-ssf servers. Then, you have the added benefit of using the currency exchange if you really feel the need. Why change how SSF works for everyone else because you don't like a certain aspect of it? The point of SSF is that you have no ability to trade gear or currency and you want to fundamentally change that. I can see why you are getting push back. Issue with playing trade league is the inflation. As SSF, you're not going to be able to keep up with traders so the conversion feature would basically be unusable shortly after league start. I'd like to be able to use currency conversion in SSF just so I can attempt to craft at a somewhat regular interval which isn't currently possible as the right Omens are annoyingly rare to farm. Add in how much of a gamble crafting is, you'll likely need 20+ different omens to maybe get a good outcome. So as a casual player, it'd be 2-4 days of mapping ritual heavy maps, likely a death here and there due to bad ritual placements, and maybe... I'll get something that is better than what I have.

So you run into the exact same thing as every other player. I have absolute crap luck when it comes to good omens (IE whittling) dropping. I have to sit here and farm maps and sell so-so gear so that I can afford to buy omens from other players at Alva. If they opened up currency trading on SSF, what is stopping people from buying all the cheap ones and reselling at a higher cost? Now, you would be in the exact same boat. Do you think that everyone on SFF is a benevolent player that doesn't want to boost profits? Again, if you want to play with currency trade, play on regular league or regular standard. The only time I really see a lot of inflation is near the end of the season. 97 Blood Mage, 96 Gemling, 95 Deadeye, 93 Invoker, 92 Amazon, 92 Stormweaver, 91 Smith of Kitava	Posted by The_Gadget#2563 on Aug 14, 2025, 4:30:11 PM Quote this Post
If they could do something like Circle of Fortune in LE for POE2 that would be the dream scenario. What we have now would be ideal for Ruthless SSF mode. Last edited by ApacheVE3D#7124 on Aug 14, 2025, 5:01:39 PM	Posted by ApacheVE3D#7124 on Aug 14, 2025, 5:01:16 PM Quote this Post
