Announcements - Introducing the Salvage Box - Forum

I'm really upset over the greed on these as a big supporter of the game... hope these are removed or made free to use. edit:Scrapped, good riddance Last edited by Exigentt#6473 on Sep 11, 2019, 12:36:52 AM	Posted by Exigentt#6473 on Sep 11, 2019, 12:32:59 AM Quote this Post
https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/d2idex/the_new_salvage_box_is_plain_predatory_why_its/ Seems like a lot of people are upset over this? Or is this just reddit's outrage culture at play?

This would be awesome if it didn't cost anything.	Posted by ItsTru#3963 on Sep 11, 2019, 12:37:56 AM Quote this Post
https://old.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/cx9gxh/mtx_recycling_is_coming/ Whatever happened to this? " The Synthetic Treasure Chest is one of the most important new features of the two-year season and will be launched in the national and international service. The core purpose is to help players organize their own fashion warehouses and recycle the excesses and outdated fashions of exiles in exchange for new, limited, and even rare fashions. In the new season, exiles can obtain synthetic treasure chests by participating in activities or directly purchasing in the game mall. Each time they put in a fashion, they will follow the current value of the fashion, correspondingly increase the number of synthetic points of the treasure chest, and different synthetic points. The rewards are also different. In the second anniversary season, in order to better thank the old and new exiles for their support, we not only set up synthetic treasure chest rewards in various activities, but also have a whole set of fashion and synthetic points as rewards to help the old and new exiles experience. This feature, in exchange for the old fashion, in exchange for your favorite fashion look. Did people simply understand how it functions, and it turned out to be the salvage box, or did we get a version worse than the Chinese release? From the sounds of things, you would convert MTX into ~SYNTHETIC POINTS~, which could be exchanged for rewards that change depending on the season. Didn't seem to be limited by duplicates, either.

But reddit said no, so Chris must abide, right? "Path of Exile's engine is currently modern, lean and fast." - Chris Wilson, September 19th, 2019 "It looks like we broke something with 3.10.0.

How about twitter, youtube, in-game...etc? We want the "functionality", however, the way the functionality was implemented is what we are against. Did you just choose to ignore the point everyone made about these boxes costing money to remove duplicates we have already paid for (and sometimes getting the same duplicates back)?

Duplicates shouldn’t be in the rewards pool. It’s as simple as that. This has got to be the most absurd microtransaction I’ve ever seen.	Posted by purely_sinful#0299 on Sep 11, 2019, 1:26:18 AM Quote this Post
