The Self Found League

I agree I want a self found league to play in my spare time. I may move to it completely if introduced.

yes one can only dream I guess. lol

I would love to see self found / crafting league!

Dont give a straight increase to IQ and IR it just means the ground will be littered with items, picking up all the rares will mean going back and forth to town often and a stash full of the low end currency.

Just increase the drop rate on chaos, exalt, alc, chroms, fuse, jewelers, divine, blessed ect.
leave trans and alts, we have enough of those.

we can then craft rather than find.

I am thinking a huge boost to currency. so in 3-4 hours you can farm 1 exalt pure, maybe 10-15 chaos. 20-30 dozen jewels, chroms, fuse, alcs.

we have no reason to hold the currency other than the craft with.

Make Mirrors and the new eternal orb extremely rare.
possibly don't implement the eternal in this league or crafting will be too easy.

A few have said just leave trading in and the economy will balance. the ability to trade is the problem. I want a lions eye glare, ill stock pile the currency and buy one. that is the fastest way. I would prefer to chance it but I know many say "its your choice!" use chance orbs instead of buying. I cant have fun when i know i am not being efficient, if i waste 10ex worth of chance and dont get one ill be pissed as i know there was an alternative.

straight up remove trading, inc high end currency drops.

I would like to see these as permanent leagues both SC and HC (i play HC)

The other option is to have "none trading characters" in the current leagues and the drop rate for those individual characters in increased. (not sure how possible this is)

I would play a none trading char every time! The AH is why D3 sucked soo bad!

i would play this nonstop

i don't play self found by any means but i would play the fuck out of this league, to be honest.

edit: oh my god post quoted two posts above this is on point.

can't believe there's no official post in this by now...

Its been a while since i visited this thread and since my last post i have gotten 3 chars to 60+ and one char to 75+. as far as IIQ/IIR goes i think that the base IIQ/IIR is fine in terms of how many uniques/rares and quality gems drop. For about 2 months worth of farming about 1-2 hrs per day, and then a few weekends where i probably logged almost 30 hrs between friday and sunday, Ive gotten probably 10-20 or so useful end game items so far (nothing crazy but good enough to be used. most were not usable for a character thet i either played or intended to play). i think this is plenty. In fact i have had so many uniques drop that i have 5 alt chars just for holding extra unique items my stash cant. granted most of these were useless but some were quite useful/valuable. imo increasing IIQ/IIR would make uniques too common. the part of default that really bugs me is that i cannot realistically craft decent gear with the orb drops that i get. Even running a survivable pure mf char (which btw was not easy) with 130%q/150%r or 70%q/250%r i could almost get enough orbs that some crafting was viable (granted it still really slow and would take years to get 'godly' gear). most of my crafting consisted of alcing high ilvl gear and praying, making links/sockets on the decent armour i already had, and the rest of my orbs were used on rolling maps (usually just alt orbs for maze/area size/ect and then a regal if it is a 70+ map). however even with my decent to good iiq/iir i was barely able to sustain this amount of orb usage let alone try to save up for crafting godly gear. based on my experience simply changing the currency drop rate would allow me to craft gear when the rng gods foil my attempts to upgrade my gear through farming rares and IDing.

GGG has commented on a self found/craftmans league; just not in this thread. It is something that they are at least considering. I think the only definitive thing they have said is that they intend on making more permanent leagues.

Interested by this league too !

Bump for the league that should exist.

i agree 100%

i would quit all the other leagues to play this one. and i hope its something like 500% drop rate increase.

bump... Please do this league.

Self-found is how I normally play anyway. Trading is unbalanced/broken.
