Good luck getting the Orbs to gamble.


Gold? You mean gold? You mean you don't even know the currency and you're judging. You should take a few years off from the internet.


It is obvious that I was refering to the "crafting" system, namely Regal and Exalt Orbs, which you also gamble with.

The possibility of multiple interpretations when talking about "gambling for items" kinda proves my point though.

Crafting is not in the quote you responded to. Gambling was. So you admitted to responding with nonsense talking about something entirely different from what you were responding to?

Walked that nonsense back...right off a cliff I guess.

(The original quote, since it won't let me embed another...)

See previous comment.

Also please dial down the toxicity.

Context: During campaign.

Can't farm gear because you don't have gear.
Even if you attempt Hourglass logout, you'll just get oneshot without already having good gear.

We had the beetle as a convenient farming spot, you removed it.

Gear drops shit, affix weighting is shit, crafting is shit, regal orb droprate is shit, merchant stock is more often than not shit.

In Act 1 you can farm Beira.
In Act 3 you can farm the 2 rares in Sandswept Marshes.

In Act 2 you will die in Deshar to Vile Vultures jumping on you from offscreen, because there is no decent farming spot in Act 2.

Proposed solutions:
- remove the shit stat that is Rarity
- remove the droprate gutting based on balancing for Rarity
- give us an actual crafting system
- improve affix weighting on items
- improve affix tier weighting on items based on your character's level


Idk man...streamers with a lot of views got their build enabling BIS Uniques few hours into endgame on SSF.

Insane luck,to get the only item you need,while being watched by thousands of people (possible POE2 EA buyers) ye sure...

If it was only 1 streamer ok. But every single of them,to hit perfect rolls in few EX or to get BIS Unique for their class/spec (the only item they need in order to showcase how awesome PoE2 is)

Man...the good old saying I WAS BORN AT NIGHT BUT NOT LAST NIGHT

It helps to take everything that large CCs say / do / praise / advertise with a huge pile of salt.

- doesn't read / understand the post
- makes toxic remarks in a post about SSF / HCSSF when he only plays Standard

Imagine the mods actually moderated the toxic ones instead of people who respond to them.

I'm getting so tired of drama-creating edgelords contaminating gaming communities and making civil discussion impossible, and incompetent moderators.

Yup pretty much, and you dont even need to find insane things either. Just modest enough which happens very frequently.

Im rolling a HCSSF warrior and already got several phys rolls on multple vendor 1h clubs and 2h. THough im sticking to 1h for the time being.

SSF should and will not get special privileges for playing the mode. That defeats the purpose of playing it. Not sure why the OP seems to want SSF to be something with a benefit.

This is a strawman and a lie, I did in no way, shape or form indicate that I want this.
Ignoring what is said and putting up strawmen to paint someone as foolish doesn't contribute to a healthy space for discussion, and makes communication frustrating and toxic.
Do better.
