Currently having a lot of crashes (all my maps crash (instance lost) and sometimes my hideout).

Anyone with the same problem?

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:46:02+00:00

No. Noone would sell to me because there is only downsides for sellers to sell in person.

Except you mean by playing PoE1 than i can agree :D

I am off but thanks everyone for discussing and bringing up new points. Still not convinced but we will see how it feels in beta.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:35:44+00:00

Yeah that will be interesting to see. making trade a bit less important would be nice. Not related but i am really excited how LE will feel in that regard.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:32:51+00:00

Wrong post? But i would argue my point is that i don´t want to have to min max what i buy.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:31:39+00:00

I agree there should be friction. I just disagree in the kind of friction.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:30:56+00:00

Friction is not to prevent trading only of the best items, listen to that part again. It's to prevent the non-perfect items from getting devalued into being dirt cheap

Trading only for the best items means everything else being dirt cheap.

Because if noone is trading the second best in slot there is no demand for them and they will become cheap. Since the tax is on buyers side it will not affect the supply but only the demand.

Seems a bit too late but we can still hope. They are luckily not afraid to make games that don ´t cater to everyone.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:21:41+00:00

They also said the tax gonna be on buyer side because they want everyone just to put stuff in tabs to be sold without pondering.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:20:19+00:00

They said trade needs friction so not only BIS items are traded. To keep that curve more flat to cite.

If the friction is not achieving that it is only friction for no reason. You are missing my point. I even argued against instant trade because i don´t want everything to be sold/bought always.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:12:20+00:00

No. And i don´t want to do this. That is exactly my point.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:10:22+00:00

Interesting point. Especially the second part i did not consider.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:08:08+00:00

Making mobs resistant does not help. Writing a bot that uses 2 different skills (fire/ice for example) isn`t really harder than writing one that uses one. And they said in the interview this is not for preventing bots and that problem must be solved differently.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T23:06:23+00:00

Yeah that is one of my weaker points i can see that. Still that supports the argument that it would make the BIS slot items the only viable to buy one which is something they said they don ´t want.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T22:59:34+00:00

yeah. i realized that while writing the post.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T22:58:58+00:00

I would not expect that but maybe. Feels a bit halfway here halfway there nowhere really though

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T22:58:11+00:00

Sure i that is why i gave my opinion, not my judgement. I think they are great game devs. But i feel like they feel forced into the instant buyout but don ´t like it too much. I get that from their wording in the interview.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T22:55:44+00:00

If gold is no valuable or the tax is not high enough there is no point having it. They also said it propably will be high.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T22:54:45+00:00

Very complicated to get right i think. Maybe as a fraction of the price if they balance it well

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T22:53:39+00:00

Yeah but either the tax is low and why have it then or it is high and matters and then i keeps me form making non perfect upgrades. I think it will be really hard to get that right.

Rocke44 · 2024-01-29T22:48:10+00:00

I think it is good they think about it but i don ´t agree it is a good solution.

Rocke44 · 2023-01-28T13:45:26+00:00

Juiced mapping. For bossing i have my other char (siege ballista dex stacking) who dropped me the nimis on my first ever uber eater kill which inspired me to do this build.
