Path of Exile 2

Path of Exile 2

Where's the loot?
Rare chests only drop uncommon items.
Uncommon chests only drop common items.
Common chests drop 2-3 gold.

Who is the target audience for this? Does anyone play ARPGs for the tedium and slog of a day job?

Edit: I just opened an uncommon chest with literally nothing inside. Someone deliberately programmed the game so that would happen. Why?

Folks bashed Diablo 4 for too much loot, and here in POE 2 we have no loot. Go figure!

I'm incredibly frustrated with how unrewarding my time and energy spent on this game has been. I invested hours hoping for a fulfilling experience, but instead, I was met with shallow mechanics, poor design choices, and zero payoff. It feels like all that effort was for nothing.

sadly this is the truth. You dont even play the game to get good loot you play to farm divs/exalts to buy the better loot off the trade site. Its a train wreck.

Their vision is for you to have no currency and no loot but wonder why you are not having fun

What I find pretty stupid about trading is simply that we use the same currency for trading that we use for crafting gear.

And now we are stuck in a weird spot whereby GGG won't increase the droprate of crafting materials for fear of Trade suffering massive inflation.

But they also won't boost item droprates for fear of deflation.

Give us something between SSF and standard leagues.
Allow multiplayer, trading like normal etc but crafting materials like Exalted and Regals are bound to account but have a much higher droprate.

Let other materials be the trade currency for that league and see what happens.

Not just D4. Its been something people been complaining about in PoE1 for years.
You will literally crash your game without a very VERY strict filter.

This was one of the first things GGG said they would fix in PoE2. Everyone cheered.

I feel like there's a happy medium between every modified mob being a loot piñata and 5-10 minute boss fights dropping complete trash.

They removed it so you'd spend more time in-game, it's all about metrics and them, not you.

That's the best part there is no loot
Make sure to check every vendor for "Rarity of items found" Game will never drop you anything unless you have that.. at 150 rarity on gear you can find 700ex+ worth of stuff an hour when mapping..

Also in campaign getting around 40-60 of it makes yellows very common.
