Standard Map Conversion is a Mess

fk yeah, it's annoying and a waste of time. Instead of playing and having fun, I convert map. I think I'm going to go play something else for a couple of days, converting maps gave me a headache.


Using the same mechanic as the Horizon orb, converting map based on some arbitrary natural tier to convert the maps tab is illogical, inefficient, and absurd. It should be like for converting the unique maps. Convert all maps 1 to 1 for their current tier from the old map to the new ones, and leave everything that couldn't be converted to a remove only map tab. At this point I'd pay for a mtx that allow me to do that.


What a waste of time.

So yesterday I spent a couple of hours dealing with this map conversion nonsense. I have two map tabs. The map conversion filled a very few of the single type map tabs to the maximum 72 maps. The rest of the single type map tabs were almost empty. My second tab had many hundreds of maps in just one or two single type map tabs per tier. I had to vendor all those to get a +1 tier map for every 3 maps. That the trickles up to have to vendor more maps.

So anyway, that was a couple hours of misery. Here's the bright spot though. Dealing with this misery was better than playing the broken game. Character deaths galore coupled with no loot. At least I had a sense of progress when clearing out my second map tab. I believe we're on the cusp here of the worst league start in PoE history!

I feel cheated losing 3/4 of my maps on each conversion cycle. Converting multiple thousand maps that all convert into the same map and have no space left and require new map stash tab is a rip off.

Im pretty disappointed form GGG at this one.

GGG, you need to remove the natural pool of maps, and allow all maps to convert.
For maps which are being removed from the atlas for the duration of the league, they should convert to maps which are coming back to the atlas.

I like this.

This needs to be changed for sure.
I play standard so I DON'T have to start over again every 3 months (re-farm maps).
The four natural t16's this time are all crap.

At this point I'd be pleased if I didn't have hundreds of two of the T-16's and none/very few of the others.

I don't like burial chambers so much that I will run 200+ of them. There needs to be a way to balance the distribution of this out so that we don't end up with several hundred of two, and zero of the others.



It's almost a requirement to buy a new map tab every 3 months? In the last 2 month's I've purchased 2 $90.00 supporter packs. I figured that would be enough.

+1

for many years now.....shame on GGG !

Also, please let Orb of Horizon convert a t16 map into any other t16 map currently on your Atlas. Not just the natural t16:s.

Need help here GGG.....
