oh an idea.

just make it perma SSF. BUT increase drop rate. I'm sure many will be tempted to play SSF when they can have MORE freedom when crafting items. in current/perma league, most ppl just gathering funds to buy existed items rather than craft a decent one themselves.

or let SSF able to migrate but only naked character. after all, SSF is to have fun and bragging rights, not for economy.

I disagree with increasing drop rates. SSF is fine the way PoE currently is.

In my 2000 hours in game, I have found a total of 8 Exalted orbs across 8 Leagues, 4 T1 uniques and 1 6-link.

The current droprates are not acceptable for SSF IMO.

Pretty similar to what I had, with the exception that I never found a 6link. But I think I found around ~12-15 exalts across the leagues.

this is like

a) no party no trading Race
b) singleplayer offline game

So NO for me

Well, honestly i dont see SSF as an option, simply because that would ruïn the game for me, its already hard work to get the currency to buy items that you want and then to decide that you dont want to trade and find it yourselve? that chance is way too low unless the game increases the rarity or quantity of items found that the players get who want to do ssf,

This is SO awesome. I'll definitely try it out. XD

well done GGG!

project pt league ???

Multiple characters in the same SSF league on your account can share items via the stash. This is progress that you have earned alone, without help from other players.

I am not really, never was, part of SSF community but don't those guys take extra care to use just the items that dropped for the character? In implementation of your league I can see people who are serious about tryharding the ladder making Magic Find/Lab Runner/Prophecy runner(lol) character 1st before making their ladder push character.

ohh ya you want feedback here it is, why complicate things when the whole ssf thing started coz of the bad trading sistem and not just improve the trading sistem by adding an ah and if the game is too easy make the game hard again... i don't even know why i bother its clear you wanna make the game casual...

As someone who normally plays SSF anyway it is good to see this playstyle officially recognised.

Not sure how to feel about this, I guess there really isn't anything wrong with this feature and some people might find it helpful/fun, however, I always did think that aRPG games were a lot about trading by nature, since there only are limited amount of items that will be useful for certain characters and the chance of finding them on your own seems rather tiny, so without trading it really isn't possible to achieve full efficiency, unless you are extremely lucky and it makes grinding in certain situations rather useless, since you probably will be looking for a certain unique to improve your gear, in which case grinding becomes much less efficient, since most gear will be rendered useless by natures, since you can't trade/change it to something useful.

I guess that maybe I'd say that GGG resources should be applied elsewhere, but the developement of the game seems to be good enough for me to not complain about the speed of updates.
