Vaal Temple for a lucky elite

Hello, I started the league two weeks ago. I feel completely gated because I can't build my Temple as fast as the top players. The mechanics are simple once you understand them, yet the game refuses to give me the pieces I need.

I keep getting identical, useless pieces several times in a row. Is this layout technique reserved for a 'lucky elite,' or am I missing some hidden mechanic that GGG isn't telling us? Thanks.

nope i've been trying to get an armory card to appear for 2 days. 20+ temple runs, nope.

Sadly, I don’t believe in 'bad luck' in PoE anymore after nearly 15 years...

It’s clearly been nerfed. I see streamers on Twitch dropping Medallions and high-tier loot constantly. I’m just trying to build 3 specific rooms, but as I said before, I think many league mechanics are reserved for their 'favorites' or just cheaters!

Many people took advantage of the early league bug to build the best temple, right?

And now we're following them from afar, @GGG?

Fix the serious mistake you made from the start. Earning more by collecting dust behind cheaters and scammers is completely undeserved for those people—and especially not for the developers.

The GitHubs of rotten layouts are flourishing; the economy is really weak, lol. Seriously, lol.

So, who here is ready to talk about this early league bug that benefited a minority?

U can build ur temple just fine right now.

U gotta realize that it's a grind and heavy rng gated too. I started my current character and temple after Holten was fixed and I'm building ever since. It's 70% done and I'm lvl 99 1/2, so keep that in mind. I'll probably hit lvl 100 before I finish the temple, pretty sure actually.

So ask urself if u're up to the task or if ur time is better spent farming something else instead.
