GGG should Nerf Team Farm, or open the soloplayer-trade mode.

Mark has stated in the past being a bot for his party is HIS preferred way to play... let that sink in.

Head dev says playing as a stat stick is not only valid but preferred. I don't think that bodes well for this debate.

As a Chinese player, I want to say this plainly:
group play in its current form is doing massive damage to the league economy.

In China, this kind of behavior has been rampant for years — players who treat the game not as a game, but as a production line.

These groups run 24/7, perfectly coordinated, mechanically identical, with efficiency far beyond what normal players can reasonably achieve.
They are not here to explore builds, enjoy progression, or take risks — they are here for pure extraction of value.

Let’s not pretend this is just “friends playing together”.
When the entire market swings because a handful of hyper-efficient groups flood it with currency and items, something is fundamentally broken.

Solo players actually engaging with content get punished, while those abusing scale, automation-like behavior, and multi-account advantages are rewarded.

If this is the intended direction of Path of Exile’s economy, then honesty would be appreciated.
Otherwise, group play clearly needs serious restrictions or diminishing returns — because right now, it’s not competition, it’s exploitation.

GGG turns a blind eye to instances of one person using multiple accounts and abusing group-based services.
