Improvements to Item Drops

No deal, bring it back to what it was before.

News is getting better, will try out after patch deploys and see if it's enough to play the rest of the league. Thank you for this, but please don't forget just how horrible almost everyone thinks archnemesis is. I think most of us understand you would like to make monsters more interesting than they used to be, but archnemesis mods have pretty well proven that most would say it has only been a big negative impact no matter how you tune them. Could you not revert to the old system for now and try to come up with a new system that satisfies you AND your players? Maybe even let some players playtest it and give you feedback before releasing it? The impression I get is that archnemesis mods are what you have already designed into PoE2 and are desperately wanting us to like it so you don't have to redesign that. I have been excited about PoE2 since it was announced, but the last couple of leagues I have become terrified of what it seems like you are trying to train us to expect.

Or you know just roll it back? We will see how it feels when it comes out but if you cut our drops from a 10 to a 4 and then give us 25% more...we are still at a 5 when we should be at a 10. It's going to be complete garbage if that turns out to be the case. The very least you should do is to finally give us some transparency and a reference to where we were at before and where we will be after these changes. Also this does nothing to improve the invasive species that is AN which is a plague upon every other mechanic.

Nice, but w/o harvest keep prefix/suffix, crafting end game (not even close to mirror tier) is impossible, especially for influenced/synth items.

Eldritch influence replaced regular ones because the implicits are too strong and u still keep all 6 affixes and on top of that u get to reroll some mods with eldritch currencies. Please consider this.

So how does a person complete their atlas? I'm stuck spending maps that will never drop another map. I'm sitting here waiting on a timer for Kirac missions to roll over so I can swoon over the maps that I can't afford to purchase because no effective currency has dropped the entire campaign.

Leagues have been progressively getting worse and worse since 3.16. Stop doubling down on Archnemesis and just get rid of it.

WE BACK.

Archmemesis still in game, viable harvest crafts still removed, buffs to loot is like 25% from 0 is still 0. Work better or no one will buy your new shiny box.

WE NEED THE SAME RATE OF LOOT DROP IT WAS BEFORE THIS GARBAGE LEAGUE, not some shady sht that no one can check!

Don't listen to reddit too much on the negativity, We genuinely appreciate all the effort you have put into this league for us regardless of the balance!!

So this is a massive massive change that is still a massive massive nerf to finding items, and finding items was never good in this game.

The real question is how did you mess up so significantly that this was needed.

doubling down on terrible archnems.

hard pass.
