If the bots story is true, which is probable in my opinion, I hope there will be a ban wave soon and that ex prices drop back to ~1:89 or so.

I am struggling to get to 10-12 ex budget to buy a +3 6 linked vicious projectile bow, but, as other galaxies are drifting away from our own, so is this dream of mine drifting away from me..

There will be no ban wave, at least not before monthly event and/or ratio on at least 1/150. Besides, your problem is incorrect way to get currency. Stop earning in chaos and start in exalts. Then your problem will disappear. The principle is simple, if you have chaos, don't buy overpriced exalts, because it does not make any sense. Buy something listed in chaos. Nice base helmet for lab enchantments, nice base ring or quiver. Then do some lab run to get expensive enchant or chaos spam your base item, to get exalts worth one.


Yesterday I earn 7 ex practically from 0, as I was broken due to purchasing expensive 15ex item. 100 c left at the beginning of the day. Currently I got 7 ex and 203 c. No flipping, no scams, no brainless Burial Chambers grinding or any mf-ing at all, no lucky "one transaction enchant". Just lab, crafting and „ordinary” mapping, without any mf gear. Moreover, I listed one 3 ex quiver (base purchased for 40 c, then 30 c chaos spamming) and one 5 ex enchanted helmet, expect to sell them today or tomorrow. Start to earn in exalts :)

Thanks for the advice. Another way I was doing it was by buying the cheapest 6 links, turning them into divine, and trading those for ex, since (from a chaos perspective) it was cheaper.
I guess I will try to do some labs as you said and stick to mapping, maybe a bit of delve.

Good luck in your adventure, I hope your stuff will sell.
One's demise is always one's own making.
I smell a banwave. This thursday I guess. Last one was after one month of 3-month league and when exa was 140c. They might go proactive this time.

No, there will be no banwave, I repeat again. I don't want to repeat, why bots are actually "good" for GGG, but last banwave was taken at 180/1 ratio, when people started to switch to other currency, like fusings, instead of chaos orb. Apparently GGG did not want such a revolution, which is why it cut the bots a bit, but only so that they would not cross a certain limit. For now, the limit has not yet been exceeded in the least, in the Polemon league rate remained at 1/130 until the very end.
The conga line of bots in act 8 is pretty entertaining. Need another ban wave soon.
Rampant bots atm and the RMT sales are through the roof. Although I can't blame casuals who buy currency to have fun, the mindless grind to get currency is at an all time high. But yea, massive bots + massive rmt sales= lol exalt prices.
GGG please save our souls and our league!

1:131 is the worst its ever been save for the botting spree in incursion.

You can play ssf if you can't stand the economy right now.

Oh, come on, cut this crap already. SSF could be viable only if there were two completely separate leagues, like "trade league" with current shitty drops and trading possibility and SSF league, without trading possibility, but with really godly drops, that would allow you to equip any character on the "trade league" level. Like - you kill Shaper, he drops Dying sun, gloves and Starforge in one drop + something interesting with ilvl 86 as a bonus. Then SSF would be playable for every character, instead of those that provide the highest survivability at the lowest possible cost - because this is current SSF reality.

Of course, in this case transfer between the leagues should be prevented, i.e. once SSF - forever SSF. At present moment SSF is just crippled version of main game. Your "play SSF proposal" is like - you do not like cars that pollute the air, go everywhere on foot.
