This was the league i knew POE1 was cooked for good.

so more broken unbalanced items/craft/etc = better?

dunno

It is a self-contradictory concept.

People spend thousands of hours farming for overpowered shit.
The challenge and excitement is gone when they are overpowered.

You say this but i would still pay for an offline version of POE1 pre harvest nerf with the new atlas tree.

This was the peak, 1000 different builds, infinite deterministic crafting, just had to put in the grind. Life was good i could play that and be OP forever and be happy.

In your opinion

In affliction when i got PBoD where I wanted it, and level 100, that was when the fun really started, it was the first time i was motivated to go for 40/40, and I played the hell out of the league long after that was done

The game is 'cooked' because there are overpowered endgame items, that probably took many many hours and resources to perfect? I've never understood this take, especially in a game which gives you hardcore, ruthless and SSF.

lol i tried my best farming up and doing my best to make the best crucible echoforge that i could

i think i spent over 200 divs but ending up BREAKING my freaking crucible echosword

in the end the best i could get was a 21 div echosword that i bought before the league ended. i used my std wealth to roll it up a little

a shame i forgot to 30% quality it before they reworked syndicate.

i forgot we could link items from our inventory here omg [Removed by Support]

Spoiler

GGG really miss Zana, but most of all really miss the fun of farming in a league where you can play around with mods like that, first time was dreaming of getting Rampage on a Windripper was like a few years ago and when I saw that we could do that was like out of this world, thought to look a lil on the forum to see whats going on with the game and it seems the game is heading to Hardcore mode more and more ...

To all the devs on this forum this is a big signal that you should try and create a game as PoE was, lesgoooo

I liked it best when it appeared they reverse engineered a good time and a good result.

Now you hear streamline the game.
But it used to feel like ... well if the odds are 1-1000 to get the sword to make these classes work... we better drop 100,000 swords.
EPIC

Now ...
Nothing drops for 100,000 hours , then , a divine.
go buy whatever.

Poor souls that really invested their time in standing still until the league mechanic was ready to go. In EVERY map.

Damn I´m happy I skipped Crucible for the most time.

Every time i encounter Archnemesis mobs.
Im reminded why I think GGG is going to fail.

Every single one of them is a monument to bad decision making.
The fact they still exist in the game... incredible.
I guess who cares about PoE1
at this point they can rot with it in a couple months.

Kalandra was the league I knew they were off the rails.
They have not improved.
Balance is beyond them and they try to hide inept behind random.
random does not hide it.

Souleater is a testament to dumb.

Pre hit/ailment split was stronger than anything since then, so .. 2.6ish.

(ok I forgot, the aura stacker at 10 mirrors was doing billions of deeps and 90% all resists and heavy armor and evasion, ok that was the top insanity)

Scourge was crazy though you could easily get a solid 10 link.
