I've bought tons of tab and have never once felt the urge to name them or colorize them.
I feel a little salty.

Same here.... tons of regular stash tab bundles.
At least give us the option to upgrade already purchased regular stash tab bundles to premium ones without having to spend 15 points per tab-upgrade, but rather reasonably priced then..

I just logged in to show my support to GGG, I don't get all the complains
This is an awesome improvement and I am excited to see how it changes the economy
BTW all that complaining about P2W... what about buying an SSD? I don't have one, and that really fucks me up in races and I'm not complaining about any unfair advantages
Last thought: it may be a little bit more annoying, but acquisition can be almost as efficient as this new system if u know how to do it right IMO

i must say i didn't expect that much trade improvements.

edit: what's with your old stance against players being able to specify buyouts?


They lost.

would it be possible to have everybody's starter tabs start out as 4 premium tabs? And then the rest would be regular if they are remove only or race rewards? I think this would be very fair for those that don't have them.


This. I never cared about premium tabs always just bought a bunch of regular ones, now I'll definitely convert some as soon as the league starts, but I'd like that everyone has the opportunity to evoid third party programs (and to be honest, third party shouldn't even be considered as an alternative to a game feature by a game dev in the first place).
Even a only couple premium tabs would be fine for starters, wouldn't it also be an effective advertising to show new players the potential of premium tabs so maybe they're even more inclined to buy more?


This.I'd be more than happy to upgrade my other normal tabs that I've bought,but,It's not fair for everyone else that cannot. Make the first tabs premium GGG,don't become greedy.


Agreed! +1
Trying to satisfy the whole PoE community is like telling a nymphomaniac to only have sex once in a week.

I think that's fairly accurate. :')
Maybe GGG is going to give all players 1 premium stash with Ascendancy?
Why not giving at least 1 premium tab to everyone? this is so innecessary, you're separating the current market for a few bucks? why, i don't understand, srsly, why not just implementing it like every normal game for free and get ride of the third party system? i just can't comprehend lol.
I don't care about premium tabs, just let the normal ones also set to public.
would have bought tabs yesterday if I knew about this


guess I wait for them to go onsale again

nice change


e/ guys its a dollar fifty

Wait... am I reading this right?

The trade improvements are being made such that trading via an unnamed outside trading system is easier?

Good for GGG for finding a way to capitalize on the use of the outside source (gotta pay the damn light bill), but am I the only one that thinks its odd that the improvement has no effect on actual in-game trading?

Sure if you use this site that GGG is treating like it's Voldemort ("he-who-must-not-be-named"), but this improvement still requires the use of outside websites, find the desired item for the price you want, copying whisper information, then returning back to the game and hoping they are online and still willing to sell for the same price they had it listed as.

For those that are using "the-site-that-shall-not-be-named", this is an improvement. For those of us that don't much care to play shop keeper on the forums or the unnamed outside website, not much (or anything) has changed.

Not bad changes for the convoluted method that is trading at the moment, just far from what I'd call a global trade improvement.

So what you are saying is that if I don't have any premium stash tabs, I can't sell stuff anymore?


All the old tools will continue to work.


While that is true, it still means that people who buy premium stash tabs get a pretty significant advantage over people who choose to save money in order to have more or even just some stash tabs and just deal with memorizing what is in what number tab. Not to mention EVERY PERSON WHO HAS NOT BOUGHT STASH TABS OR CANT BUY THEM. Those people will still have to use 3rd party programs or pay to upgrade their tabs. So for those people you are basically saying, pay us money or continue using the work around method made by community members and input your account information into their programs. Personally i think having premium stash tabs only give the color/naming advantage is enough to justify paying more for them. being forced to pay more to use the trade system leans even closer to pay 2 win than stash tabs already did. To play devil's advocate GGG should be albe to make money for spending the resources to implement trade improvements. However, i wish it was more in line with the spirit of GGG to give it out to everyone and allow players to choose if they want to support GGG for doing such. If GGG will withhold basic features from free to play players today, what will they do tomorrow? will full respecs make it into the mtx store? will expansions start to cost money? I dont like the direction of this decision by GGG.


Edit: just wanted to clarify. Amazing improvement, helps me a lot. Just a little disappointing that there is another feature that is tip toeing that p2w line except that this feature is one that is even more part of the core of the game. Its almost like saying, we made lockstep, but you can only use our new and improved predictive mode unless you pay 10$ for lockstep. they literally made a in game trade system but are only offering improved 3rd party tools to everyone who doesnt buy premium tabs.
Hey this is a signature! pretty cool stuff...yeah...
