No think about it. PoE bear comparison with League of legends on so many levels.

Its just like xp/ip boosts in League of Legends. You don't have to, but it is a great convenience.

Riot Games knew how to do things!

xp boost = pay to win


what the fuck are you talking about?






this is just a troll thread

Its not P2W because you can achieve the same thing by just following an appropriate build and doing the chaos recipe, its P2ST -Pay to Save Time. If anything.


What would be good is to ONLY SELL the chaos orb effect. Doing this, no new chaos orbs would enter economy and players who want to pay to save time could, while others would just do the chaos recipe to make chaos orbs(You can make as many chaos orbs as you want!!!). Discuss?

P2W based on the definition of which resources you have to use to get ahead in a computer game is almost always "pay to save time". Aweful thread, aweful suggestion...

No, I would most likely quit. I hate P2W, and however you manage to rangle it with words it's still PAY 2 WIN.

This is why I enjoy Path of Exile, because it rewards those more and more for their continued efforts. As opposed to complete beginners who can reach the equivalent rewards of others who have spent their time invested in learning and understand how the mechanics and ideal methods of reward can be earned.

Is it not enough that it's in basically every other free to play game? If you wish to save time, I'm sure you can find a suitable selection among the bajillions of games that charge extra for every aspect of their game.

Logic? Can't someone create multiple free accounts and store the items there?

There is no 100% sure way to immediately get* chaos orbs, you depend on RNG drops (even chaos recipe depends on RNG). Thus, the two (assuming the comparison is about tabs) are not 100% comparable, since you can get additional space in a 100% sure way (it's just so tedious and stupid, I can't take it as a serious option)


(*lets forget about economuh, for a sec)

Lets sell exalts and eternals too. Since stash tabs and OP's suggestion is Pay 2 'SaveTime', this would be nice too. You still need to roll good property, this purchase is just saves your time buying this items!!

Indeed rings are going to be the hardest thing to find. That's why you need to buy a lot of tabs to make it possible for you to compete with non traders.

In either cases you need to pay for something. Tabs or chaos orbs.

No there is no easy EX/ET recipes, while on the other hand anyone can make a build that fast clear Merc fellshrines. And collect ANY rare item for the chaos recipe

=> Easy and almost 99% guaranteed chaos orbs.

Am I the only one concerned that such threads even get attention?

Pay to save time is not pay to win, yeah, there is always a way how to twist words to fit any meaning.

Well, why stop there? Why not save even more time by just not playing the game altogether and just buy Win Fireworks that will play the ending credits?
