Well done, POE. You bricked it.

That's what you get in POE. Get something decent and try to up it with a craft and just turn it into a brick.
Thus they have done with Settlers league.



Prior to this latest patch I could send out moderate shipping - 100-300k value since I'm not a super rich no-lifer - and get back a few chaos and the occasional div.

Now the same cargo caps out at 100-130k w/ huge volumes of dust and returns 1c if I'm lucky.


Right after the patch I ran a test with 3 ships, same cargo, to the same port. Only variable was the amount of dust sent.
10k - highest value currency returned were regrets/scours, ect. No runes.
50k - highest value currency was a single chaos and the bottom tier rune (sun/life).
100k - Received a notification of the ship returning but when I went to the shipping screen it was sitting unloaded as if it had never left. No notifications, no messages of mission failure, just... an empty ship ready for cargo.

Im in the same boat (pun intended). My shipments went from 177k to 66k. How on earth can this be called a buff?

Same thing happened to me. Created a shipment and when I came back to check, it's as if nothing happened. Lost a lot of resources.

Also, noticed the dust is not exponential anymore, it just adds a 1:1 linear amount to the shipment value.

Rip league?(Nice "buff" patchnote).

this guy made the same exact thread crying in reddit lmao

but...this is a buff!

Hahaha XD I think they just forgot to add a line like : This is a buff for 0,01 % of the players base.

Honestly why are the buffs always to the top players who are already rich and don't need help at all =P.

I LOVE GGG but the buffs in this game are 50/50 on actually being buffs and I find it very unprofessional being lied to as a player who invests time and money into this game.

It's just something that keeps repeating.

This killed the league for me. The mechanic is fun managing the town, but this nerf combined with maps having less loot in favor of the gold being used for league mechanic purposes just kind of ruined it for me. Not supporting with a pack this league. Time to decide if I play the next Tarkov wipe, the WoW expansion or maybe see if the D4 season isn't a complete snoozefest.
