0.9.12x Patch Notes
" Yeah, this has been bugging me also. Being pretty reliant on my positioning, I find myself picking up lots of unwanted items, or navigating around or through loot piles to avoid wasting as much time cleaning them from my inventory. Makes basic movement feel much more cumbersome lately. " Agreed here. Magic mobs have the best overall drop rates for the numbers you could get. This patch looks like another hit to drop rate (will see for myself soon) of maps and even less exp. Good fix of unintended OP roll. Bad for overall consistancy, likely. "The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it."

Yeah, the double pickup is a right pain in the hole.

So now there is even less incentive to waste currency rolling rare maps, the problem with IIQ being relatively shit should have been addressed before dicking around with anything else to do with maps.

Did this massively drop the number of magical items spawned? Since the patch went live I've had a single rare item out of three maps on ruthless. Nearly every boss drops only white items.

Maps! - lets not go there! they are a sore subject.
Latency graph. Please :( I really want to get back to HC
Spoiler
I've literally given up hunting maps. Since the migration I have failed to find maps higher than 66 of which I only ever found 1. I've collected and either vendored every single rare that has dropped or stashed it in the hope of making alchemy's. I've traded all my fuse orbs/Gcp's and other valuable currency for chisels. All my currency has gone into improving my maps.
The result! I have 1xlvl 60 map left and zero improvement on my equipment with minuscule improvement on my xp which was the main reason for doing the maps in the first place. I'm BACK :)

We must make it to 0.9.12z so I can teach my children the alphabet!

Thank you, thank you. Magic mobs mod was only way to prevent map starvation. Yes, it was unbalanced, but it's removal without drop rate increase will make situation with maps even worse than now.

There were a Problem with rare and magic monsters? I never realized that. Well, I hope maps stay challenging. PoE needs to be hardcore :D
With all the good changes, i wish the beta would never end. |
