Loot is bad now, wait till we get every new weapon

I think this is a big issue that has not been acknowledged by GGG.
Loot currently due to being completely rng based on drops at endgame (nobody cares about recombinator combining some mid t5 affix with a t4 at 91+ endgame) makes the chance of finding gear upgrades aka 4 good affixes at very high tiers astronomically low. This is bad but it’s gonna be so much worse once more types of weapons start dropping vastly increasing the loot pool. The system absolutely uses gamble addiction logic to extreme levels and really needs to be adjusted https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Ash-9143/character/Ash_Pierce Last bumped on May 22, 2025, 7:01:38 AM

I think the gear itself is fine.
"Crafting" and the currency we have for it is absolutely unacceptable. We a bit more deterministic crafting, we need currency drop rates to go WAY WAAAY up. people need to stop saying "loot" is bad. That term is way too broad. |

" Play SSF. LOOT IS BAD! |

" I'm playing SSF. Loot is not bad at all. |

" It isn't. What you can do with that loot is bad. Feel free to post something of value to explain your position tho. Words aren't that hard, I promise. |

you can craft any item you need for your build in poe, using orbs, essences, and various crafting materials and bench craft
in poe 2 you cannot do that, you need to pick a hundred, two hundred, 5 hundred, 10 thousand white bases, and throw essence/augment/transmute each, and if affixes are trash, you discard them this system is insanely stupid and counterintuitive not the least to say that the game stops dropping white items with increased rarity, and you need white items to do "crafting" but game has no other crafting method than throw 3-4 exalts, and pray for 1/200 x 1/200 x 1/200 chance to hit together, or winning a national lotto. Almost every time i have thrown 3-4 exalts on an item, it has given me, T1T1T1T3 affixes (poe 2 version, t1=the worst) |
