Diablo 2 related idea

It became common to the game that there were party rooms, groups, whatever, for loot dumping. Now that's obviously sleazy and can get overloaded, but instead of trading, I do genuinely prefer to just throw stuff all over the ground. And generously say here ya go. I know that can be done in maps, or other specific areas. Diablo that did become somewhat of a hustle, but it was a thing,
So being reminiscent or nostalgic I liked the idea of quicker item giveaways.
I wouldn't know the best way to revisit that concept but it had it's moments.

was nice, but then we'd get town drop traders which would open a whole new can of worms in poe2

That's right. I also remember it was a flawed system, and taken advantage of like anything that's awesome.

It worked in D2 because in D2 there is almost no loot in comparison with POE.

So if you want to giveaway, just sell all your stuff for 1 aug orb. If no one buys it - no one needs it.
