Solo Self-Found Support in 2.6.0

A lot of these posts miss a crucial element.

There is no "party" option, so having a person join yr instance and drop items for cash that you drop is a "party" and will automatically exclude you from SSF.

OFC yr solo... to be anything else invokes the party rule and automatic exclusion.

And for yr partner to kill Atziri and you to collect the loot means you are in party mode...are you not?

Get real ppls...READ what Chris said before you post.

NB.. you dont HAVE TO do SSF, so stop hair-splitting and belly-aching and just enjoy the option.

Just to be sure I hafto ask.

I can start a SSF charachter in Legacy, and when I get tierd of sucking 'cus of no trading. I can just bring the character to regular Legacy and continue as normal?

Yes. There will be two buttons next to your character that will allow to transfer either that character or your entire progress in SSF to parent league.

Wow, this is fantastic. I'll be playing the hell out of this new league for sure. If it transfers into a permanent Standard SSF someday then even better. I havent tried HC but this would be super cool seeing someone reach the end levels knowing they did not rmt with a credit card or even trade with another player for an i-win item. I Respect that kind of game-play tons, knowing they have sweated out every close call and ground every small victory with many near death experiences... that is really attractive.
Great job, GGG!

I haven't messed with HC much but I play basically ssf most of the time.

Screw it. HCSSF here I come ;-).

Think I have a decent idea for a build that will work.

Thats Great News! most of the time i play ssf.. :)

I personally play Self-Found because that's just how I play. No bragging or anything, I just don't have any friends who play and I'm not too much into the whole "let's grind as fast as we can" mentality that is so common online.

I was hoping SSF would increase magic find and success rate of currencies and such so that the game would be better balanced for a solo player. Would that be possible for us who do not play this game for any of the multiplayer features..?

Does PVP is disabled in SSF ???

This limit a lot of build that need leo crafting bench ... For example RF will be very hard to achieve without rise of the phoenix and leo mod.

So i left SSF today it sucks and i'll tell you why:
- No trade sucks (it should be: trade for currency ONLY, so you can sell good items)
- Divination cards system is broken in SSF - I did spend entire week farming "the demoness" cards i got 3, terribe drop rate for a item that you can get for 1 alch in standard league, totaly not worth it.

And good thing about SSF - Now i care about getting good rolls on strongboxes, maps etc (extra items, extra item quantity, quality, extra sockets on items etc.)

SSF mode is the best thing ever, since it acknowledges the playstyle I've always been using anyway. now farming (=/= grinding) actually has a meaning. it still is too damn hard to find a 5-link though. that is unbalanced as fuck

kinda disappointed though that there were 90+ chars after 1-2 days even in ssf... proves forever that I don't have a clue what is powerful in this game (but that is also because I'm simply not interested in unintuitive "cast on" builds NOR builds you need specific uniques for). but now that I can work on my goals (finding all uniques, card sets and 20/20 gems and whatever other collectibles are added) and can easily prove I didn't cheat (= trade or RMT) I got a reason to play this game! just hope that my char goes to SSF standard after the league, they never announced what happens officially...

btw, things I haven't seen in this league: map strongbox, diviner's strongbox, CADIRO. (exalt, reliquary obv. neither). my flame totem witch doesn't work out right (can't create enough damage without a good wand and that 5-l and farming for tabula is horrible as I can't even find channel maps), but I don't want to start a new char, so I'm in a bad spot right now. actually I can't imagine going back to any of my other tried builds without vaal discipline. so I'm once again wasting my time as I can progress only on a snail's pace. might call it quits as I simply can't deal with the complexity a build able to reach the final bosses needs. this game fills my action game slot, I'm not willing to crunch numbers for that
