Has trade been fixed?

Almost didn't play last league because BG3 was released and I finally finished PF:WotR.

So, before the new league starts: do we have a proper trading system now or is it still the same terrible "friction"-based mess like back in Crucible where we have to use a browser, contact 20 people for a single trade and lose map portals when we want to sell?

@GGG

May make my decision regarding throwing more money at your game dependent on the answer.

There's nothing in patch notes about it, nor did they talk about it during the reveal.

Sorry.

Of course not.

Because "friction" and "inconvenience" are "good ideas" in some warped meaning of "good" or so.

You know, I just wish I could simply play this game with my controller, a bottle of mineral water, maybe a snack. Focus on it. Progress.

Not waste hours on my tablet contacting 100s of people.

This and the fact that there is no PC / PS5 crossplay (would love not to carry my laptop to bedroom, etc...) are borderline dealbreakers for me.
idk man i never have issues with my trades.

outside of the website going down due to api / server issues, trading is pretty straight forward. It might take me a few seconds to message a bunch of people with recent listings that aren't the very top price fixers.

it's not perfect 100% of the time, but the absolute vast majority of interactions for me a quick and easy.

im able to setup all my trade search listing announcements and use my ingame tools to quickly research the market while remaining ingame.
They NEED to make an auction house in POE2. No price manipulation, no dealy no NOTHING. Just buy the things you need and sell the things you don't need.


NO ONE wants to engage with the 300th bot to change currency, no one wants to message someone who is price pushing an Unique just to lower the price of the new ones to buy them.

No one wants to log onto a Asian server and lagg the fk out for one minute till the trade is finally over :D
Can't fix what you don't have!
Never saw a problem here. Maybe in SC it's a hassle and a big issue
By the way, overpay 10-20% and you'll get what you need in almost an instant
Yeah, don't wisper 20 cheap offers to save 2 c and you will get more trades faster.
Trading is not that bad. Compared to trading in Forum days it's hella good. During cruicible the trade site had some issues, well. Don't price check every 3 sec to save 2 c and maybe the site won't go down this time ;P
