Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting

Some mechanics in Harvest need to change, given that Archnemesis mods spawn on harvest mobs.

In particular, some monsters are just un-killable. I'm in a T10 map, and for the most part I'm clearing T10 maps just fine. This particular T10 map has "Monsters gain 34% of maximum life as extra maximum energy shield", so the monsters are a bit more tanky than usual, perhaps. So I go into a harvest and there's a monster from a blue harvest with the Trickster mod, and a resists elemental damage mod. It's unkillable. I'm a projectile build - spark, and even if I get it to just run into a corner of the harvest map every time it pops its ice wall ability and does its run away thing its energy shield regens faster than I can damage it. Even with a level 21 spark gem, I'm still not getting through its ES before the regen begins, and by the time the regen ends, it's back to full ES again, despite my damage.

So, under other circumstances, this would be fine, who gives a shit, it's only one monster, and it runs away from me anyway, I'll just ignore it and do everything else in the map.

The only problem is, that because this monster is still alive, I cannot access any of the crafts from any of the other harvest plots where I've killed all of the monsters. I don't care if there's the occasional monster I can't kill, but it's a bit shit when it bricks my whole harvest even though I can kill literally everything else.

Harvest crafted items wouldn't be OP with a single players worth of harvest finds over the course of a league. What breaks it is the ability for a player to use currency to buy the best finds from everyone in the league. It's essentially thousands of players worth of crafts being funneled into a single item.

Exactly.

The inability to refute or even respond to valid points like this is ridiculous.

Why have a forums you never post on or read?

Bring Back any way of Deterministc Crafting PLEASE!

Calling this "Crafting" in the current state of the Game is a Shame in my Opinion im sorry. CRAFTING IN THIS GAME WAS ALWAYS A GAMBLE! EVEN WHEN HARVEST WAS THAT GOOD! Also there Crafts was Hilarious expensiv and Rare.


Rng is OK and needed in Diffrent Ways. BUT to much RNG is no Fun anymore. Hope you guys learn this someday but to be honest i really lost the Hope for that.
We all love this Game here. But the Effort and Currency + Time you have to put into 1 single Item to be good is Ridiculous.

Fact is: This Game has been Changed over the Years (Good and Bad Ways) but NOBODY i mean almost NOBODY want to use there Hard earned Currency to waste it and Brick it then. Thats for sure not fun and also not OKAY im sorry.

The current State of Harvest is a Shame and should be removed Entirely! Pretty much after the Big nerfs back then to this Mechanic you had to put it completely out. But you keept it (Nothing Half and Nothing Whole).

Sometimes i really try to understand you Guys. But to be Honest everything that was fun over the last Couple Years that Players enjoyed got Pretty much removed from the Game OR over rolled from a Truck!


PS: Recombinators are a Joke :P No Clue what you Guys was Thinking there xD
