Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

And finally - uninstall the Game (.
After only one week (
It's - sincery sad (primarly - for me).

Because do not see a clear way how to improve my gear (which are near to be ideal).

The other goal than continuously improve gear on a few builds- is not interesting (for me).

I hope this changed in next League, with:
1. Crafting. Ok, will be very expensive, but must be Deterministic, similar to craft 6L with a lot of 1500 FuseOrbs.
2. In-game trading platform. WantToSell. And will be great to have WantToBuy (probably as simple Bulletin board).


PS
Stability of Game client - was great for me.
Thanks.


PPS
Just one suggestion
Players are using DiscordTrade because they WANT this functionality.
Players. Need. THIS. Functionality.

Just get this "pain", and build your game around this needs!
The name of needs: "How to improve my gear".


Good luck
POE - is phenamenal outstanding game.
But still uncomfortable in Crafting and Trading.
A MobsGrinding - is great, very liked the process.

Higher-tier seeds are closer to the 1:1 ratio from before.

I don't understand. Is that a lie? That cannot be true. I did 20 harvest runs with haewark hamlet nodes and mature platinum watchstones on standard. I got literally ZERO augs, r a nons, influence crafts. I got 1(!) reforge keep prefixes. In 20 runs. Everything I got were reforges, res swaps and color swaps.

The chance of encountering a portal to the Sacred Grove in a map has been increased by 60%.

Can't say that is true either. In ~200 maps on league I got like 3-5 harvests.


GGG just remove it already, or give it back. It was absolutely the best thing happened to this game. Now it's literally not worth even visiting. You know there are a lot of bad mechanics you added in these years, but there wasn't one thing that was that bad and that useless.

the nerf is so severe that actually i cant play PoE anymore, is really terrible to play now! sry guys im really sad about harvest, ultimatum, and all the fun u took away from the game, :( :(:(:(:(:(:( so so sad

I normally go along with any nerfs just fine but this one is ridiculous. How was it not predictable that this crafting system gets out of hand? It should have been super clear after the harvest league. So dont bother integrating it at all or leave all the crafting options in the game. Make some adjustments to rarity. It is a joke now, just ditch it already. Stop bating.

And don't tell me rarity adjustments wouldn't have done the trick. Sometimes it can be counterproductive to always look for the smart radical move instead of incremental adjustments.

Got around 60ex in my gear killed Sirus and almost done with completion etc...
and I have absolutely no will to play anymore what is the point without harvest?
To upgrade my gear I have to be super uber lucky with RNG crafting etc...
Which I really don't have the time or willpower to do so. Sadly im quitting after 1 week I myself can't believe it myself how the game has become shity when there is no ENDGAME goal u can try to achieve in Ritual league I played for 2 months and I still didn't have my Endgame Staff I was trying to craft it make the game really fun to play to aim for something GOD TIER like.

Good bye see u in POE 2 not coming back for any other league

Harvest went trash, Game is unplayable, crafting back to 2016...

Yep, i'm enjoying my time on The Slormancer whom is as grindy as PoE but has deterministic crafting, locking of affixes and will be able to make GG items with time...

Bye PoE, see you when you give us back decent deterministic crafting options !!

feel like my rng worse now... harvest 1-3 crafts gives me and only reforge... wow

Why would you nerf fun out of the game, fuck that


FUCK THAT

No more deterministic crafting, I get it. But what about a T11 mod on a ilvl 85 item?
Look, if I enjoy gambling so much, I'd have spend that 2000+ hours in casino rather than here.

Life is always full of doubt and uncertainty, I get it too, i.e what's for dinner, who should I date this weekend, should I continue to hodl, and etc etc.
But there is one thing I'm god damn sure - there wont be a single dime from my pocket anymore :)

you have typo in that manifesto.

you wrote "it enables them to complete their items far more quickly than they otherwise would."
instead of "it enables them to complete their items."

Best is, when someone tells you that "high ilvl items have higher chance of getting high tier mods" Which is untrue. Usually you can get max tier mods on lowest items (if minimum ilvl is met), because thats how it is.

Having ilvl 87-100 does literally nothing.



Also.
Specific annul + exalt craft was very low chance of encountering even during harvest league. And it usually gave you craptier of that mod.
And you couldnt get rid of unclassified mods (item rarity, stun recovery).

Now that its gone... we are back to fossil gamble and essence gamble.

Question is. PathOfExile Pachinko game when?


Yea guys and dont forget about nerfs to rendering. Game was too easy when you could see monsters or abilities.


PS:

At the end of the league, I commented on everywhere (almost), where was any sign of "harvest will be readded to the game later" that it will be in abomination form, pure rng and nothing to do with crafting we have now. Probably only map with boss.

And now, we see i was right. Map with boss and (non)league mechanic, that is still buggy af, and the good parts are gone, pure rng.
