This game's future looks reeeeally bad. I don't see how they would turn things around. They went too far with the RNG and the trading system is a failure, especially because of the people that play this game behave in such a weird way. They just want to find items to trade, not to actually use, as if it was about finding gear to sell instead of upgrading a build to its best or simply trying out new things.

Look, I get you're new here. You didn't play PoE1. But before making wild statements about the game headed for disaster, at least learn that the trade is identical to PoE1 and that worked for a decade (hell it used to be way WORSE). At least read a couple of the dev manifestos to find out that the games are BALANCED around trade, not SSF.

What you have essentially said here is:

"This dog's future looks reeeeeally bad. He's young, in shape, perfect health, perfectly behaved, with a loving and caring family."

You need a new bow that costs 2-3 divines? Can't buy the divines because they go up in price EVERYDAY.

You don't 'need' a bow that costs multiple divines to do T15 and T16 maps that will give you divines.

You can buy a 440pdps bow right now for 100ex and a 400pdps bow for 30ex.

Right now mid tier gear is still selling for exalts and it's only top tier gear that sells for multiples of divines.

You do not need to buy gear that costs divines to enter into T16 maps today.

I don't disagree that there is a huge issue with exalts devaluating, but I firmly disagree with the claim that newbies 'need' divines.

Weapons are usually the more straightforward upgrade.

If you want incremental gear upgrades changing your armour or helmet etc can mess up with your maxxed resistances, causing you to have to change several pieces at once or settle for not maxxed out resistances.

all my resists including chaos are overcapped and im playing self found, i havent bought anything on the market.






i have no real perception of the market in poe2 cause im not using it, but when i read statements like this...

im reminded that i hear people making claims about needing 20, 30+ divines for gear in poe1 leagues but i know from experience i could buy enough gear on the market to destroy t16 maps for about 20 chaos which i could easily farm in 1 hour running t1 maps self found at lvl70.

i find it hard to believe people need loads of divines for their gear. you guys sure this isnt a want thing more than a need thing?





im sure this whole thing isnt helped by us only having 1/3 of the ascendancies and 0 proper balance passes so everyone is trying to buy the same gear for a handful of builds. i believe you lot when you say the situation is janky.

i think sirGog is probably right, if were going over 300 exalts to a divine were probably looking at a wipe out. its leaving the market as a trading currency. in poe1 u cant even trade alchs for divines most of the time, theres no rate on that trade no one wants your alchs. everyone has enough self found to cover all their own needs. maybe exalts are just not gonna be something we use for trade in the long run.
