Solo Self-found end-game
Many complain and/or worry they won't be able to do play the game solo and do maps without trading. So, here's an example of all solo, self-found gear up to my current level of 83. My gear is nothing exciting and I found my weapon in a level 66 map. I haven't started doing level 70+ maps yet.

How much hours did you need to grind and farm for all this? (if you really didnt trade)

It is all gear and maps that I found. I held off on starting maps until I was level 71. My time played on my 83 Scion is 13 days, 23 hours and 33 minutes. So 335 1/2 hours played.

" Thank you. You see the problem is, not is self found possible, but do you need to farm for so long. The same problem d3 had. If you did not want to use AH or rmha, you would need ot farm for ton of hourse, totaly same what you did here. Your post proves that to get a self found character to end game you will need a ton of time, it is almost as much as playing free korean MMOs, and it shows very clearly that the game is not balanced around self found if you need to farm for 300h. If you trade you will get where you are at the moment a lot faster Self found league would do exactly that, remove the trading, but make the drop rates so you would get to end game at same speed as if there was trading. I hope now you understand at least somewhat better why people want that league. Not because it is not posible, but because it is just tooo much time consuming compared to any other arpg game out there Last edited by miljan#1261 on Dec 4, 2013, 6:04:44 PM

" So you want all the rewards without having to play the game, I understand that now. |

" 335 hours played and no 5L. Few lvl 70 maps. Okeyish gear. You don't see a problem here? Edit: there's nice line between too much rewards and too few rewards. Guess where PoE stands on that matter. „I don't give a fuck if it was his tenth anniversary with his goddamn neckbeard...“ „If they think I'm going to let them sweep this pizza guy thing under the rug...“ No mod action. Business as usual. Last edited by Odoakar#1827 on Dec 4, 2013, 6:11:03 PM

" I see no problem. I can do maps just fine without a 5 or 6 link with my "Okeyish" gear. I see the problem as everyone thinking they need godly gear and have to trade to get their gear so they can do end game; that just isn't the case. All you need is self found gear and a decent build. Oh, and be willing to actually put some time into the game. Last edited by Peanutz#0274 on Dec 4, 2013, 6:16:30 PM

I dont see a problem..why? He is having fun doing this. And actually with doing the self found and taking the time there is a actual feeling of pride especially when you get to the point of steam rolling mid lvl maps. Granted I know this is not for everyone but dont knock someone who is having fun playing.

I'll never understand why people get whiney about the drop rates.
there are plenty of recipes to transform what you get in different stuff. the gear you would like to find in solo self found, is the stuff you need to beat hard the monsters in six people party, in solo you can do everything with uber low value items. period. ♦▲◄▼►▲♦
