The Self Found League

Hi

I don't tend to play party but I feel that the option should be available in SFL but party benefits like increased drops should not be allowed to better balance the incentive of solo play to team play.

I would love if this became a permanent feature but equally feel that GGG at least could try a temporary league 1-4 months long to ''test the waters''.

SFL:1)No trades with other players.2)No mf rolls on blue or yellow items.3) Increased orb drops NOT items.4)No party benefits, No loot allocation timer(what drops for you is yours alone)

1+ to everyone for the continued bumps and steadfast belief that such a league is possible.

cheers

LOL seriously deja-vu from previous SFL thread in General Discussion.Um, you quote me and it clearly states that I too would enjoy SFL being on a permanent basis, but one can't just go making a league of such magnitude without testing it first. DO you realize how much data GGG receives from races and league events?

So read my posts better.

SFL 1-4 month temporary league( as a test) at the end all characters are erased.

SFL:1)No trades with other players.2)No mf rolls on blue or yellow items.3)Increased orb drop rate NOT items.4)No party benefits, No loot allocation timer(what drops for you is yours alone.)

P.S. OF course this league is non-competitive.

cheers

Another vote for this

Definitely a league I would play in permanently.

I'm finding it very hard to get any motivation to continue playing anymore, or roll any new chars as it always comes down to having to trade to get new gear. I'm 46 years old and I remember when argps used to be kill mobs...find loot. now it's all down to grind to get currency...sit on trade, or spend your time on trade buying and selling to make currency to buy your next bit of gear.

As I posted in another thread, my current char from lvl 40-67 has not found a single useful drop gear wise. 27 levels of grind for nothing is not fun.

Regards crafting I think the stickied crafting thread says it all, where the first piece of advice is "don't craft, buy it"...so much for an enjoyable crafting system, it just plain sucks.

exactly as said by above player.. +1 from me. i'd swap to that league instantly.

zero trading. zero. nil chance of trading, besides... partying gets plus xp also increased chance of cool loot. your mate would like the shavronne that you can see on the floor but.. its just plain tough how the cookie crumbles.. but he still might find one for himself =)

make this league happen it's a game in beta.. right =)

Haha, I like you way you think Sir, a purist at heart. I salute you!

I would definitely play this league! I don't really like to spen too much time with trading, I want to play PoE, not Trading: The Game.

I love this league. I have friends that are so rich (relative to me anyway) because they trade all day (and they have time to unlike me), even trading between standard and hardcore to make better profits.

I don't want to do this, I want to play poe. I'd like to craft and find all my gear. I also understand that the balance of the game takes into account that you can find a gg item and trade it for one you need and that's why the only option for me and many others is to have a self found league.

Personally I would like it to include

- partying with bonuses similar to the current ones.
- loads of currency drops, id love to be alterating and regaling and exalting lots of stuff
- maybe only higher unique drops with really good currency trades if you vendor them

and obviously no trading at all, not even in the party.

Hard to balance I assume but would be really nice.

I know this will never get seen but something totally different and actually an idea for trading... I know there is a in game trading system coming... could be nice if you had a trading currency, which can only be traded for orbs ( I assume the orbs retain their inherent value), and this can be used in an open market to convert orbs from one type to another and also to buy out items so that people can post items with a certain value and someone else can buy it on the spot.

My 2 cents :)

+1 self found league!
