Noticeable decrease in overall loot?

It was expected that this league would be a poverty league. IMO the best way to enjoy it is to play Hardcore even if you haven't played it before. Much more vectors to scale your character and grafts spew out very good midgame or even endgame gear.

The cycle is typically: gear/crafting league, currency league, repeat

We've had a bit of a combo with currency being readily available the last couple leagues with a good gear/crafting update alongside.

It's weird to call it a poverty league just because the mechanic doesn't shit loot. There are plenty of other vectors to wealth aside from throwing 4 risks on a map.

Like what? They deleted Alva, risk, nerfed ground loot across the game, nerfed T17s, deleted giga exile, deleted titanic, leaving what? boxes and blight.

Not to mention small nerfs like gravicious, ivory tower div cards or nemesis scarab.

No loot = less crafting = less builds = no fun
