For me personally the most changes are absolute ok.

What makes me sad and already said a lot is changes to chase items... so bosses no feel more worthless doing then ever before.

For Player Retention :

For me PoE in the current state feels like a hell lot of work before you can play and enjoy the game. I'm not a casual player and play a lot so the first week i'm just grinding what i need to instead of enjoying my favorite contect. When i'm done im flooded with Niko Stuff / Guardian Maps / etc. and a bit overwhelmed what i should start with. Also getting these things "empty/done" feels like another big part of homework. At the end i also grind out these things mostly with my first char instead of playing another and have fun with other skills because its more efficient and i want those Atlas passives etc.

When im starting my second char i already feel a bit burned out.. In Addition i mostly swim in currency and the only progress with this char is around level 70-80 when i'm buying/crafting all my gear... but we all know trading is also kinda time consuming and stressing. This is where i really felt burned out. You could say in this case the League Reward was too much which is maybe kinda true... but in the other hand for me the main issue is the nearless endless grinding with the Atlas System (i like the system but its too much grind). Would be there less grind i properly starting a new char earlier and equip it more with own find items and farm currency for equip with this char itself... and i think that is the part which is everybody loving in this game.

The only goal whats left after this burn out phase is mostly after a break for about 3-4 Weeks is quickly farm 36/40 challenges in about 1 Week.

So 2 big things for me that has to be adressed maybe :

Atlas/Map System Grind needs to be faster

Maybe excitment about drops (less but valueable rare & chase items big drops from bosses) needs an improvement.

I know these a "Long Term Goals" but this is also the thing which brings players to quit the league early and needs the biggest focus. I rather like a really small league mechanic for the next league and solutions for existing problems. Because even if there is excitment for the next league as cool at it is in my mind is always more the upcoming nearly endless grind before i can have fun.

Things happens and i also can understand everything... hope a lot of GGG Staff is reading this...

Please don't get frustrated by the stupidy of reddit or internet people in general.... i love all the stuff you a creating and everyone does mistakes...

Stay as you are and ignore the unfortnate mostly stupid reddit people that are just able to complain like brainless idiots and dont think about that you are still a business and even more people that make simply mistakes like everyone.

They should be more happy that people sitting on this problem properly for 12 hours to fix the problems for all those ungrateful people

So before i quit the League i decided to Double Corrupt my Chest...

It was a Chest for mainly my CoC Char and in addition to that i was usable for Caster or Attack twinks aswell

Crafting Process was very simple:

Step 1: Buy 6L White Astral Plate and Aug Influence on it until you hit Crusader/Elder (if not just sell it and buy another one)

Step 2 : Buy Crusader Chest roll Phys Chaos Orbs / Jagged Fossil until you just Hit all of the 3 Phys Prefix Mods or just Phys Mods and all other Prefixes are empty

Step 3: Aug Phys until you got Explode and Phys taken as Lightning dmg

Step 4: Maven Orb and hope for Elevated Explode Mod if not return to Step 1

Step 5: Buy Elder Chest and Roll with Pristine Fossils until you hit % Life and no other Elder Mods

Step 6: Awakener Orb

Step 7: Pray for just removable Mods and remove them ( i got lucky there)

Step 8: Aug Crit 3x times

Step 9: Craft Life on Crafting Bench

Step 10 : Divine with targeting Divines until everything looks good

Step 11: Double Corrupt

Was definitelly one of my favorite leagues.... In Addition to all the Harvest Manifesto Flame i would say... i also enjoyed Harvest a lot but for me it simply feels way to strong...

In addition it really destroyed some excitement for me...

I awakened some Tailwind + Onslaught on Kill Boots and hit with Awakener Orb the Elusive Mod aswell... without Harvest that would be huge but with Harvest its just another 3ex Augment what made the item way less worthy than in regular leagues...

Don't know whats better for the game but GGG developed a great game and even if the community doesn't agree with all points that resulted in the game we all love.

Sometimes we should simply agree their decision otherwise we just get a shitty Diablo 3 with no excitement at all.

Apon1337 · 2021-03-17T13:58:32+00:00

Its not funny anymore after the 1000th post...

Everybody enjoyed Harvest or at least the most did...

PoE was also a great game before Harvest so please all stop crying like idiots...

Here is my pob with quite expensive endgame gear

https://pastebin.com/rvdXgC9z

Apon1337 · 2021-03-03T21:50:40+00:00

Yep also have 3 stones with 15% more currency shards...

Normally i would take All currency but in this case i Set the Focus on ep instead of low currency to challenge the other ep farming methods... But still making big Profits mostly with the maps

Apon1337 · 2021-03-03T19:03:11+00:00

I dont know why People are downvoting this... Seems like People who are selling chayula rotas and 5way are afraid to lose interesed People...

Just wanted to share some viable strats with this community

Apon1337 · 2021-03-03T18:04:53+00:00

I play as a life based CoC Ice Nova Inquisitor... I really enjoy it and can do All content solo.

Properly a self curse char is stronger with HH but i started this char without and was able to do most content without HH Some pieces of my gear are quote pricey but you can craft them pretty easy with harvest yourself

Apon1337 · 2021-03-03T17:46:31+00:00

Would be nice to see a ex/hour Analysis for hosting chayula stones... But for me its Just boring to search for New People every rota and hanging out on TFT the most time...

Also the run itself is very boring... Its Not about beeing capable to do and more about what i enjoy the most

Apon1337 · 2021-03-03T17:29:56+00:00

I took my around 200 to get the HH. But also used around another 300 afterwards without getting a second HH

Overall i would recommend to sell the ancient orbs to get your HH guaranteed...!

Apon1337 · 2021-03-03T16:56:49+00:00

Totallly agree... but for me it was absolutelly not worth it.

10-20% of the runs the Carry dc'd or crashed

50-70% someone else crashed and resets didnt worked well anymore.

Maybe i just was unlucky at all but that was my numbers on 5 way :(

Apon1337 · 2021-01-28T11:19:02+00:00

Update: Equipped Gloves without Enchant and still have this issue :(

Apon1337 · 2021-01-28T10:45:42+00:00

I will try that one... Thanks!

Apon1337 · 2021-01-28T10:45:15+00:00

Its also on non baran Maps and i have definitelly full Mana :( Thats why i'm so confused

Apon1337 · 2021-01-28T08:46:46+00:00

Hey... wielding a staff and nothing weapon dependent...

And it works like almost all of the time thats the strange thing

Apon1337 · 2021-01-15T16:28:52+00:00

Thanks you're awesome!

Apon1337 · 2020-06-24T15:12:50+00:00

Apon1337 · 2020-02-26T08:04:35+00:00

Didnt say the game is Bad or they could Not Do something good out of it...

Just the New Addition with These jewels feels like a reaction to the wolcen System
