Truth about Rarity and What to Expect (From Experience)

[GOD OF WAR SANCHEZ]

I have been playing on 0-50% rarity for the entire time since EA launch, and getting a divine drop once a day? I have seen a lot of exalts in t15/t16 breached maps, not so many chaos or annuls. I think I had 5 divine drops in a week.

I have switched to rarity gear, got 400% rarity and had 5 raw divines drop in about an hour from less than 10 maps. This gear is expensive, I spent more than 60 divines on it.

Now sitting at 500% rarity, I get so many more annuls, chaos, exalts, and even full chance orb drop, in every map, it is insane. Yet I have sacrificed my entire build, my defenses are a joke, my dps is half, my sustainability is glass cannon. I am much more likely to die.

Still is it worth it? its worth it.

As well as you get much more high tier 4-5 rares, that can be picked from floor and cost 10-20-50 divines out of the bag.

What It feels like is without rarity you have been playing a nerfed version of the game, a demo gutted version for plebs.

You just figured out how magic find works in ARPGs? Wow.

[Willard]

Unfortunately there are only some builds which allow you to go this while still being able to clear.

Also you paid 60 divs for that gear. Thats not something players can pay.

If u missed a cheap rarity items train your only chance is to buy currency for real money so you can buy rarity gear.

This can't go live, its completely ruining whole economy. There is a reason for POE 1 MF not influencing currency.

Magic find should be tied to difficulty of content, not to a stat on your gear.

Upvote for visibility, previous commenter is correct, this is a huge issue

Agreed. If this continues, the currency will be destroyed making 3rd or even 4th ascendancy for new players a nightmare cause if you arent playing the rarity numbers, just give up. I hit good spot to to take a break but this problem is going to snowball till the devs address this after the holidays

if u think mf is gonna ruin the eco and not bots , i dont know what to say to you

if u nerf mf normal players gonna end up with even less drops and people using bots wont care at all
