Let us Craft

[moody]

As long as you put the time in playing you should be able to grind and put what you need on your Gear. Since Gear is so important. No gambling.

The Loot hunt should be finding better Bases. Like Advanced and then Expert to later Craft on just the same.

We need more linear progression.

Buying on Trade is just a cheat code.

so.. craft your gear, and dont buy then.

this is a self solved problem

[AirSniffer]

Agree. "Crafting" sucks.

as it always is.. this is nothing new.

Yeah the "crafting" is such a complete garbage system in this game.

[thestile]

It's a pretty dreadful lottery. It's always mana, light radius, chance to hit or some other GD affix thing I don't need.

But I refuse to trade. I'll just stick with my terrible gear. Haha

I get lucky once in awhile though. Got a pretty kick-a$$ chest piece with almost everything I wanted.

I don't think it would be so bad if the currencies weren't so slow to find. For how unlucky the rolls are, it seems like they should drop more often. I guess they probably do in the late game?

[Rasjel]

you all still call this crafting?
its gambling nothing more

[Rasjel]

what i hate the most its not one gamble you have to hit the right thing multiple times in a row. and if one miss all recources are wastet and you can start from scratch

no, in poe you had a bench and could influence your craft far far better and especially cheaper, could even sell your crafted items far easier

right.. so basically the same as poe1 crafting then, but without 10 extra years of league based extra crafting mechanics, except you cant scour now, and need a new base to start again?

what part of poe1 crafting do you think didnt involve using currency hoping you got what you wanted, if you didnt starting again?

runes are what has replaced your bench.. whatever you used to use the bench for, the runes are specifically meant to replace that.

the selling process is literally the same.

There is no Crraft on your Gear. It's Gamble on your Gear.

Huge difference there.

Yea this is tough. I too don't like playing trade as it'll destroy fun of loot for me. but crafting to me is no different then just gambling but in a different form and when there feels like a .001% chance of getting an upgrade, it feels horrible. POE1 we had a crafting bench which helped significantly in gearing up while still giving you something to look forward to for better drops to replace the lower tier crafted stats. Also more targeted ways of farming like div cards and other things and more deterministic crafting. I hope they aren't stubborn and realize they need to return some of things we need to make gearing and crafting better. Otherwise right now it feels like game isn't balanced for those who don't want to use trade, yet using trade kind of ruins the game. it's a catch 22. but i refuse to trade for many reasons. Toxicity in softcore trading is also a massive problem i won't go into here.

random gear is the hallmark of all these games...
you will never be able to fully craft a specific item with exactly what you want.
