Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

Current crafting system is okey, even if you would remove harvest at all, fossils is cool, BUT to craft with fossils you have to spend a lot of time to buy fossils from spamming 310832901382091 players.

So if you removing FASTEST way to craft items, please make normal & fast in game trade for common players, who cant play 12 hours per day

I thought Chris Wilson's opening post was well written and thought out. It would seem from his OP that the two big mistakes made was releasing harvest the way it was in the first place and then compounding that error by releasing the insufficiently nerfed harvest in the second place. It pains me to see all the folks that are upset by this decision by GGG. PoE is a fun game with or without harvest is what I'd like to remind folks.


No it’s not, not everyone has the time to waste grinding for currency like a monkey to even have the remote chance of getting crafts like these reliably.

Crafts can only be applied to currencies

This is my only wish since ggg decided to return the harvest. But the chance of proc aug/annul mods should be very low
Way to make once again gate 90% of the fun content behind a huge RNG wall of not funness. If you like me dont have 4+ hours each day to grind mindlessly the game is so gatet.

Also dear Chris. No regular player ever exalts spam. With the drop rate of exalts being so low, you buy stuff for them. Chaos spam? its not fun, and its allmost never worth while, with the amount of suffexis, prefixes and what not.

harves was worth while, just make the really powerfull stuff less common. Your fix, is like killing the patient to cure the deaease
good solution, harvest is just very bad gameplay now. Much better than any other mechanics. If you get zana you always go for harvest no matter what, this show how broken it is.
"Is there such a thing as an absolute, timeless enemy? There is no such thing, and never has been. And the reason
is that our enemies are human beings like us. They can only be our enemies in relative terms."
1 almost perfect item after playing 200 hours this league... too much power sorry
without the harvest i am pretty sure a lot of players will just quit the league earlier
was already hard craft a item using fossils/essences/scouring-alchemy/ chaos orbs and now with double influence is a complete nightmare
i like the idea of a defense exalted orb, fire exalted orb, etc
All you had to do was make harvest non tradable, and if that wasn’t enough, then make the best harvest crafts more rare. People are correct about the definition of crafting, if you take all the deterministic out of it, it’s no longer crafting, it’s gambling and if I wanted to gamble I’d just go to the casino. I’m a casual player and have played the most this league because I’ve been saving all my good crafts waiting for a piece of gear to try and make high end. If you take these parts out of harvest you might as well delete it because no one is going to use it anymore. This wasn’t that hard to come up with, you should reconsider your approach becuase I agree with your concerns, there are better ways! Heck I even liked the idea of a fire ex or cold ex or physical ex etc. my two cents and I really hope you guys listen to these posts people are making. Maybe in the future if your at a cross road, just throw up a poll and let the community decide.
GGG !!! Please ! What is wrong with you , guys ! NOBODY complains about harvest , its ll about DISCORD !
You want a solution - HERE IS THE SOLUTION !
Fire exalted orb , Chaos exalted orb , Cold exalted orb etc
Fire annul , chaos annul , cold annul etc
Problem solved . Harvest is safe . Players is happy . U can trade it on ur site . And players can play DIFFERENT (!!!) builds . And they ALL CAN WORK !
What u get without harvest ?! Look on builds diversity in Heist - Cyclone , spectres , miners , couple of chaos builds , coc assassin . Same rotation over and over . And look in Harvest league or NOW . You can even make Burning arrow Inquisitor or ... whatever . U can make ANY build u want simply due fact u can BALANCE RESISTS atleast ! GGG , please .
This is not the way GGG. Original harvest was broken yes, but ritual harvest implementation works as intended! People can actually complete their own crafts and no the most BiS items are not cheap to craft at all. Here is hoping to reverting this decision to nerf harvest once again
