This would be awesome. Or at least some sort of means to filter out all economy simulator related from game, trade parties from public party list, all of trade/pricecheck related from every chat etc. As I play only self found anyway, all trade related is just annoying clutter that affects negatively to experiencing the other social aspects of the game. Trade spam is just everywhere, it would be über cool to be able to escape all trading related ingame just by turning off the trade chat. Ah well I don't like trading irl either, But in games it just feels like typing a cheating code to gain more power. That's why I play all games pretty much self found, sometimes might give or take gear from party members if we found the item playing together. In poe it also feels that droprates are a bit low, feels like drops are balanced from purely trading perspective, decent gear does drop every now and then but it rarely is good for your character. I think I'll continue playing something else and continue lurking forums every now and then to see if anything interesting enough rises up to give the game another go. I really like the game, and still have high hopes they will implement something nice for solo play too in future. Also would want group play to be as challenging as solo since now it is total easy mode. Solo play isn't hard either most of the time since ai is stupid. |

IF it was my decision I'd remove the trading completely. You want to have a good items? Work for it. Didnt drop anything good? Well, no one promised you anything. Work harder.
Besides, wheres the satisfaction if 90% of your gear comes from some chinese bot or a random lucky guy living on the other side of the planet? |

I'll bump this. I wouldn't play in it but it doesn't hurt the game or any of the other leagues and people are asking for it so I see no reason for it to not exist.

+1 on the tuning of the drops. Drops are way over-optimized for trade right now.

" I disagree, they're mostly over-tuned for mass IIQ and IIR, which is a separate issue entirely from trading. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

its should defenitely have 100% IIQ and 100% IIR

I don't think an independent self-found league is the answer to solo players woes.
Spoiler
I would much rather see some crafty and thoughtful AI implemented that aims to reward players with relevant upgrades for their journeys through Wraeclast.
My main character is a bow ranger, and I find so many d*mn melee axes and two-handed beast sticks that it makes me sick. Give me a BOW upgrade please, not a melee weapon with stats that I would love to have on a BOW. Perceive that my character is a DEX/INTEL based character and subtly bias drops towards that attribute focus. Identify trends in my passive skill allocation and gently tie them to item modifier probabilities to help me optimize my theory-crafted build. I don't think anyone wants it to be easy to get upgrades, but attaching upgrades to effort and achievement makes A LOT of sense. Pure RNG is just so brutal sometimes.. Maybe the problem, at least for me, is that I don't use currency to its full potential, or even know how to. I guess I'm not a mad gambler. I would rather be rewarded with items for my exploration of and slayings in Wraeclast than from gambling stats on base items. It is nice to have the option to gamble though. My thoughts :) TY to those who called me out on my BS on these forums. There is no benefit to being so selfish as to fail to acknowledge others' differing beliefs of what "should be" or believe your own opinions so supreme as to be factual and thus dismiss others' opinions as being somehow a lie or delusional.

+1 to Selffound!
Can be done in 1-4month leagues or even have an extra perma version. This would give people without an affinity to economy a real alternative. |
