Why crafting feels bad in my opinion

There are no viable crafting opinions:

1.Homogenisation was the only viable thing to guarantee somthing you might like

2.There is no method to swap elemental resistances on gear

3.No divine dump (prices increase rapidly)

4.No scouring/reset - Always have to find new bases when the first steps dont work out as the annuls are way expensive

5.Not enough currency drops mainly annuls which are needed for this type of lottery crafting

6.Removal of homog made the decision to make essences into regals bad, as essence dumping with some type of scouring orb would be more viable now

I'd like to add to this because crafting is the single most frustrating thing I find in playing POE2. I want to love this game. But when I get to maps and I get my ass handed to me time and time again because I can't find gear with good enough resistances or enough runes to drop to fix those resistances, it's beyond discouraging and I don't want to play anymore. Right now, I'm looking at my character in a map and I'm thinking - do I start a new character and try again to work on my survivability, or do I go back to POE1 which I am enjoying more on all fronts?
I want to enjoy playing POE2, but right now, it's not fun. Until this crafting becomes more balanced, more options to fix the problems that YOU want us to fix, I'm just not having fun :(

Yep i already feel like dropping this league, never had the feeling that i would rather play D4 at league launch before as i like poe more. But i dont want to pointlessly and painstakingly grind just for 1 upgrade and waste my time. I would rather craft my gear if the game allows it. I like doing it in poe1
