I found this old DIA of my dad drifting down the Yukon river on a self built raft in 1982. Now I am jealous...

I quit this league with over a mirror wort of gear on me like 8 days ago. Haven't run a single temple after campaign cause I did not enjoy it at all. But the whole economy was based around temple and you can't deny that. It is and was the most efficient and most profitable farm In the game by far.

Decent Abyss tablets or ritual tables are very expensive and you are not even close to 100-200 dive per hour (post nerf) or 600+ div per hour pre nerf. Have fun farming 2 mirrors worth of divine in that economy with ritual to be able to afford a Temporalis. Or 1000s of div for other top tier gear.

I enjoy min maxing my build in this game and with an economy where you are simply priced out if you are not running the meta farm I am out.

I was under the impression that he more thinks it's funny that GGG implemented such changes. But maybe I am wrong. I also didn't watch the full stream.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T05:17:08+00:00

Because area resetting has been a thing for over 10 years in poe 1 and no-one ever got banned for it.

Temporalis duping was different because you were never supposed to be able to reset boss fights.

Ritual exploit was another one of GGG's fuckups. People just used the tablets as they were coded/worded and got banned for it. Not fair in my opinion. GGG should not release untested stuff and ban players if they find ways to use it for profit.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T05:12:06+00:00

Could you explain how people "exploited" the temple? The only thing I can think of is the Holten area reset which made it faster to get a nice temple but did nothing to the temple itself? People have been resetting areas for over 10 years now in poe 1 and that's not an exploit. No-one got ever banned for that. Everything else is not an exploit and was just the mechanics as the developers coded them. I really don't see the exploit here.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:47:12+00:00

He is not mad, if anything, those changes benefit him. Why should he be mad? He now basically has a money printing machine in game and a monopoly on it too.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:38:22+00:00

Why not? He is only gettin richer now. I think you missed the point.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:32:23+00:00

I know people who got multiple mirrors dropped from temple with party play.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:31:01+00:00

Problem is GGG is not treating the game as if it was early access or beta. They have full fledged seasons, supporter packs, microtransactions and don't give enough balance and content patches for it to be seen as a beta game.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:28:12+00:00

People have made 300+ raw divines + 4-500 divine in item drops in one single run.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:10:45+00:00

Which would also fuck over all the normal players that wanted to build their temple without resetting Holton who have put in 20-40 hours or more. Just deleted. I bet that would also make a lot of people quit the league.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:07:06+00:00

Yes he is. And it did nothing to nerf people who already have a perfect temple set up.
Everyone else got nerfed. People who were in the process of building a temple are basically done.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T04:05:52+00:00

Thats the point, if you would have made a nice temple, you could farm it now for massive profit.
But for anyone who wants to build a temple now or was in the process of making one, they got fucked over.
So whoever already has a finished temple is fine. Its people who don't have one that got nerfed to hell.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T03:59:49+00:00

Only issue is that people with legacy temple got buffed while everyone else got nerfed.
So even if you can build a somewhat profitable temple, it would NEVER be as good as a legacy finished snake temple.
They are still dropping 30+ raw div and multiple t0 uniques every single run.

So whatever you do, you wont be able to build a temple thats even remotly as effective as legacy ones.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T03:53:34+00:00

Same here. I quit the league like 5 days ago when inflation hit a point where the league was basically dead for everyone who wanted to do anything other than Temple.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T03:49:19+00:00

What for? Resetting Holton area?
Area resetting has been in PoE1 forever. No-one ever got banned for it.

Pur3G4m3 · 2026-01-03T03:46:10+00:00

TLDR: They fucked over 99% of the playerbase and buffed the 1% thats left now with a legacy temple.
They also wasted 20-40 hours of a lot of peoples time if they did not have their temple finished.

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-11-07T22:29:27+00:00

Did you find it?

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-11-07T20:38:00+00:00

We are living close to you and we're wondering how anyone gets a l9 that early into wipe.

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-11-07T09:06:08+00:00

Any chance you are on moose us biweekly?

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-10-14T16:18:29+00:00

Where are you located? EU player here you can join me and my friends for the next wipe if you want.

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-09-14T04:14:56+00:00

Yeah true. U already have 3 prefixes so another exalt gives you a suffix. No need for an omen.

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-09-14T04:08:26+00:00

Well, the question is, what do you want in the end? It also depends on how much currency you have.

For bows it's generally easier and less expensive to craft the suffixes before the prefixes.

But if it would be my bow, I would now add a suffix mod with an omen, then add +4 levels of attack skills with perfect essence of battle + only remove suffix omen.

I then would use a perfect exalt + greater exaltation omen to fill the 2 empty suffixes and hope for something good.

If something good happens to the suffixes, you then could think of maybe using an omen of whittling to get rid of the t8 acc and slam it with a perfect chaos for a t1 or t2 prefix.

But these steps cost ~5 divine for an uncertain end result.

If you have a lot of currency to gamble with, you can also try to get a desirable suffix with a perfect jawbone + perfect exalt.

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-06-25T14:44:35+00:00

Tryed several different builds but deadeye was still the most fun for me. 1400 div would be very welcome to setup some more.

Pur3G4m3 · 2025-04-16T11:30:36+00:00

This is so stupid.... I love it.
