What Happened with Items

Thank u for feedback Chris. A very sad situation, but I belive you and your team can optimizate this mistakes. Good luck and take care of your health!

for the most part i like the way this league flows as its something thats not forced on you and you dont have to do it

what i dont like is the fact that if i do the league mechanics theres some mobs (mainly essence) that are damn near immune to my damage

i dont like that fact that i have to play for a million hours a league to see maybe 3 divine (formerly exalted)...im not saying give me these items....its just when you put a lot of time in to see 1 decent drop every 300 maps thats rough

you need to adjust more skills to be end game viable or nerf a few bosses like maven who only certain builds seem to be able to do

i want end game to be challenging i jsut dont want it to be to challenging that i need 300 divine to kill 1 boss

i think im at 200+ deaths and counting this league and im not even to maps yet

How about minions ?

I'm pretty sure with this dumpster fire damage control they are trying to pretend minions don't exist.

For reference: PoE has had passionate minion players for a decade. The only minion build over 1% used is SRS. Because it is quite happy when minions die. They had feedback minion survival was horrid and ignored it.

GGG is wrong, you are right.

we added a dedicated reward for Beyond: Tainted Currency Items.

Which you gutted.

This is a massive internal communication fuckup and I take full responsibility for it.

AGAIN?

Every other player is unaffected on average.

Except I, as an average player, feel terrible mapping. Unless I run into a specific kind of rare, the map just feels like shit tbh. My currency has never been in more dire straits than this league; I was at a point where I couldn't even alch maps.

I have seen parties in this league get multiple mirrors per day, or find over 50 Divine Orbs from a single monster.

And the 99% won't get ANY divine orbs.

we think that drops are in a pretty good place after this week's changes.

I think otherwise. It seems you think that we're getting a few large spikes of valuable drops across our playtime, but the reality is that we're getting maybe ONE large spike of drops we care about across our playtime. It was better before, when we got a more even stream of drops we cared about.

Not to mention that some players will get absolutely *fucked* by AN modifiers -- only running into junk modifiers that give nothing. Others will hit the jackpot and get those 50 divines.

You need to remove AN from essences and beasts -- I shouldn't have to skip content because of AN (although, to be fair, this is the league where I'm actively turning off or ignoring content because it's either too rippy, or too unrewarding (harvest)).

Give us back Harvest crafts! And make harvest monsters 100% chance to drop their life force! Its just insulting when i get 20 lifeforce from 4 harvests!
I come back to PoE just becouse harvest was back. After this nerf all crafting became 10% to 0.01% success rate.

In sentinel i crafted all gear myself on white-yellow maps, without recombinators. Now i just pray to rng god to find decent fractured item and use my low number of essences with no luck...

Revert old loot system! Im having big problems with sustaining white maps and atlas overall.

Also minions. GhazzyTV has said all that is needed.

Maybe will leave the game for now, the game sucks so much right now that i don't want to play it. Even bought the supporter pack from this league, but i'm really disapointed.

Im actually having a lot of fun, the Archnemesis encounters where the worst tho, having one spider on my first kalandra map just one shot me out of nowhere was something.

RN Im just enjoying the game as a casual player and Im happy with it! Hope it gets better

Pretty funny that Mr. Chris Wilson still think they are in the correct direction, and use words to ignore our feedback.

Seeing this post just make me be more sure that GGG does not have a team to really test the game before it release. A friend of mine who has a team to play 6-man MF maxed juice map (with at least 700% IR and 50% IQ), told me that they are now having 25% of loots compare with previous league. and this is after loot drop increase patch, so GGG say.

IMO GGG is trying to slow us down to let players play through the whole league, not just the first month. They want us to stay until the next league release. I mean, there are way better way to do so, just buff the skill gem and tune the loot drop rate back to previous league.
You want to lower Exalted Orb's price and make Divine Orb more valuable?
Just make Divine Orb be an alternative recipe of Exalted Orb.
It doesn't make any sense to just turn Exalted Orb into nothing and suddenly replace it with Divine Orb.

From the 3.19 expansion onwards, we are trying to make sure that reward systems scale with player item quantity and rarity bonuses. That's why the reward conversion system that higher-tier Archnemesis monsters have is so powerful. Any bonuses you have from additional difficulty will affect the rewards that the rare monster drops. Additional item quantity causes them to drop more items that are converted, and additional item rarity causes those items to upgrade, which also affects the converted one. For example if you upgrade a rare item to a unique item and it's then converted to a currency item, it'll drop as a Divine Orb, Exalted Orb or Orb of Annulment.

So screw the average player again. We now have D3 Treasure Golems, but only for the players that can get to end game, where they spawn. The rest of us can eat a dry bread D sandwich, with nothing on it.
