Today's post discussed a lot of bugs that we don't normally focus on in the news, but we feel it's very important to have transparency about important topics and their solutions.

I was really hyped for this league and came back to PoE but now you gave me a reason more to leave.


1. PvP Events on Standard why not the new League where everyone would start new ?
2. Since the start of PoE there is a LLD community in standard
3. And another way to just win with good gear, skill doesnt matter here.

But anyway have fun guys, i will check out the race ladder just to see the same top 3 every time...

This is typical SCRUB behavior. Within the context of the rules, what is the difference in a) spending time to farm items (which are really not that expensive) b) spending time getting good at pvp. Scrubs complain

Spoiler

The scrub mentality is to be so shackled by self-imposed handicaps as to never have any hope of being truly good at a game. You can practice forever, but if you can't get over these common hangups, in a sense you've lost before you even started. You've lost before you even picked which game to play. You aren't playing to win.

A scrub would disagree with this though. They'd say they are trying very hard. The problem is they are only trying hard within a construct of fictitious rules that prevent them from ever truly competing.

Why does the vTact think for a second that he would have a chance if he had equal gear? He flat out WOULDN'T. He hasn't played and has no basis to claim that he would have a chance. This excuse has always been poor because they have no context for their statements, having never played pvp with good gear.

So to make himself feel better, he complains about the gear disparity between people who farm for it and himself, a complaining hothead with no plans to ever play pvp anyways.

Changing the format to use premade gear would not allow for build diversity. Let the beauty of the crafting system shine by allowing people to use their own gear.
