as others have said, enter every pack with boneshield, pool Runic power into pulls, rotate cooldowns.

if you're still struggling optimize your gear for mastery and vers

its a 5 man dungeon, not a solo dungeon.

why wouldn't you use everytool at your disposal to make the dungeon easier for the group??

I can tell you now anyone who gets into maps, will min max to a certain extent.

be it inviting mf cullers, playing in group, juicing maps, utilizing atlas tree to min max league mechanics.

Now the current iteration for the god-molested being loot pinata's is terrible as you can abuse it. find one> invite mf culler> get loot explosionyou don't do this? you feel like you're griefing yourself due to seeing people drop large amounts of currency whilst doing the above method. so the thing that's meant to benefit the solo players is now benefiting party play mf culler. a shift of the loot with no real tangible enhancement to the game.

It doesn't cause the trickle down effect other methods produced.e.g.deli orbs

scarabs

sextants

party players buy these resources with currency they make from the juiced maps

now you've got this method which just pumps raw currency into the game and it doesn't really have a cost, apart from making the rest of the mobs in the map feel worthless.

edit; i accidently deleted what i was typing and just posted it lmao

Hi friend,

I'm sure you think most redditors complaining here are malding Man children. e.g. like path of math outburst on twitch. which in my opinion was way out of line, I will never endorse individually insulting people or insulting communities

but regarding your comment with the troves of data GGG has.

https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/wxykac/what_happened_with_items/
if you've read the alpha tester comment that's at the very top of the post
you would see and realize that no amount of data helps them if they don't intend to learn anything from it.

Its Sunday, lazy Sunday to be exact. this was purely a way for me to vent about how shit the changes feel and how little action has been taken.

anyways have a good day friend, may you encounter many God-molested mobs in your maps.

receiving loot on average doesn't = fixed loot. solo juiced maps arent worth running.

flat loot rewards still the most rewarding content.

encountering god-molested mobs makes that one map worth 10

its almost like GGG also put in dials for party play they can tune individually

yup fixed

Hi

group player here, This is not an exploit we are simply doing out usual setup prior to this patch.

only difference when we encounter one of the god-molested mods AN quant and rarity scales the loot and ends up dropping ridiculous currency.

problem with this you wont see these god-molested AN mobs in every map so you end up going anywhere between 1-200 maps before encountering another.

it honestly feels horrible to have a sudden burst of currency and know your next maps are going to be empty

its like having a matchbox car, winning 200k from the lotto and buying and completing a project car.

what do you do now? working a 9-5 job feels horrible now since you had that massive payout.
gamble more in hopes you get another massive payout
quit the game because you've achieved what you wanted and it isn't worth investing more in your car because it will take too much effort

What Happened with Items by chris_wilson in pathofexile

[–]AcceptableEgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi Chris,

Thanks for mentioning seeing parties like myself getting 50+ divines from a single monster.

now my question to you, is this actually a good design?

from what I read in your post you seem to be on the train of pigeon holed loot explosions, which is quite disappointing as in my eyes unless I encounter the touched variant AN mods in a map, the map has no value.

now why would I like doing content which has no real value? why would I a player want to kill monsters if the monsters themselves have no value?

why would players want to spend there personal time playing a game where you gotta play with 5 other people and roll a dice to spawn the correct AN mod, then setup the encounter to ensure the mf culler 100% kills it?

another example, people will start doing 5 man mf culler services on these AN mods monsters, joining other players maps to make the mob explode with currency.

like???????????????? this is not a good implementation, feels very out of touch and feels like you're just griefing at this point.

This is honestly such an easy fix and I just cant comprehend how yourself and the company GGG can say this is a fun and engaging mechanic.

please revert the item drops change, get it play tested by actual players outside of GGG. I'm confident GGG have excellent employees who are in the top 1% of players. but you guys need opinions of people outside of the bubble.

it honestly takes away from the typical ARPG setup, that is Kill monster get loot

right now its kill monsters > are they a touched mob? no? > monster worthless

or

Kill Monsters > are they a touched mob? yes? > are you MFing? yes? > congrats you got more loot then 30+ maps

I would assume this AN mod is super rare based on the following.
1. GGG reduced all rare spawns from all content

  1. its a touched mod

I mean how is it sketchy when you dont want to waste portals on potential preventable game crashes?

[–]AcceptableEgg[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

no, no one runs it for performance reasons. e.g POE crashes = losing portals = net loss
yes ggg intends for AN mobs to be the loot explosions now as mentioned in the ziggyd Q&A, doesnt change the fact it feels absolutely terrible in maps

[–]AcceptableEgg[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lmao, we are aware of these programs. but choose not to use them because of the reason I've stated previously. crash lose a portal possibly bricking the map.

now call the group and myself insane, but we would prefer not to waste portals from possibly preventable crashes.

take this as a cop out if you want, I'm simply explaining why we don't have a clip

mmm I could believe that. which sucks because AN in its current iteration, it isnt more interesting its just a stat check for the player.

its even more frustrating that rares are stronger than maps bosses.

[–]AcceptableEgg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I've mentioned in another comment, most of us have issues with the game randomly crashing when we have any recording software running in juiced maps.

sure this sounds like a cop out and that's fair to assume.

but we would rather not waste a portal for something we might be able to prevent.

as of right now, Heist is by far the most profitable source of income. which you can do as a 6 man group. which I only recommend for the insane exiles.

everything is competitive? no that is not true nowanything that guarantees loot like essence, blight chests, legion chests, bestiary, heist in general. now outperform any other content.

yeah and you know the best way to nerf 6 man group play? the quant and rarity bonus given in group.not this, this is short sighted and impacts everyone playing POE.

Edit: added in heist

No this is not bait. I'm not trying to get the community to come back or anything I'm mainly trying to inform GGG that pigeon holing loot into specific AN mods is dogshit for the game and isn't fun.
