    Thought I got scammed out of 6ex yesterday buying a 21/20 vaal haste, was dissapointed, and moved on telling myself I need to be more careful when checking items in trades. The guy contacted me this morning saying he accidentally gave me the wrong gem, and gave me the right one. Good guy!

    The Atlas now feels like the preamble to the endgame...and that is very tiresome

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 01:46 AM PDT

    I have been playing since Delve and I could have been "burned out" by any league in the past but never was....this league feels particularly tiresome however. Which is surprising because I like the ultimatum mechanic and that is pushing me to play more but the rest of the league has whittled me down. I was thinking about why this is and here is what I think is happening.

    When you got to maps previously it felt like the end game. Sure it was tiered into a White/Yellow/Red maps but they felt like mostly incremental boosts of the same activity. No longer does it feel this way...the first 24-48+ hours of mapping (~3 weeks of playing for me) just feels like a preamble to the endgame now. Previously we just had leveling, which was annoying in its own right, but 5-8 hours of later (for me) felt like I had reached endgame.

    The reason early mapping feels like a chore is that it is really unrewarding compared to what it will be at true end game with T14+, atlas passives, atlas bonuses, etc. Also early mapping and it is filled with 5 grinds now and each is independently annoying:

    a) Map Completion to drop higher tier maps (gotta complete ~120+ maps one time to feel good)

    b) Map Awakening Bonus to get more missions, guardian maps, etc (gotta complete ~120+ awakening bonuses to feel good)

    c) Unlock watch-stones to drop the highest tier of maps and to get better loot from conquerors/sirus (gotta get at least 16 stones to get a 4 regions dropping the maps you want)

    d) Unlock Atlas passives to run the content you like in the most rewarding version of itself (need to unlock ~6 passives in 3/4 areas depending on what you want to run)

    e) Complete all maps in an area to get the favorited maps (Probably want to triple favorite maps in ~3/4 regions )

    Yes it is true that a single map often counts of for 2-3 and occasionally all 5 ...however it is just way too many independently filling bars from a similar activity. As you get towards the end of maps however often a map is only counting for 1 of the 5 grinds. I would love it if there was just map completion/awakening bonus and the other grinds just got allocated automatically. (ie let the maven witness the same boss in a region, favorite system directly linked completion bonus and not region, allow all 32 watchstones to unlock from the same region)

    Lucky double corrupt

    There are currently 44 Mirrors for sale, and 13 Headhunters.

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 07:41 AM PDT

    As I guessed during the initial reveal, Headhunter appears to be about as rare as a Mirror of Kalandra. They are currently the same price, both still rising every day.

    Considering the sheer number of players that enjoy Headhunter and have often viewed it as an obtainable but expensive long-term goal, I have to say I think this is a terrible change. It is not realistically obtainable any more even as a league-long goal, as there appears to be no sign of the price increases slowing down; supply is extremely low, it may be 250+ ex by mid-league.

    Why does every single "loot rework" have to be a massive nerf?

    For the first time ever I unlocked and beat Sirus. I had 1 portal left and only on Awakener 2 but I'm so proud of myself! Shaper is up next! Thank you to all the people here, Discord and the PathofExileBuilds subreddit who take the time to help noobs like me out!

    I know Sirus is hard, but I didn't know it is this hard. GGG, fix your game please, this is unacceptable.

    Ultimatum trials are all about running around because aura stacking is making rares too strong.

    Posted: 25 Apr 2021 07:15 AM PDT

    I run Ultimatum trials just fine in red maps, however let's not kid ourselves: they are mostly "run & keep running" content, there's barely any deep, meaningful fightning there. However GGG, apparently, wants to pursue a slower and more methodical combat gameplay with PoE2.

    I believe aura stacking will never be balanced in this game for multiple reasons, mostly for 2 reasons:

    • if some league mechanic's rares are overtuned, it's mostly cos they are empowering each other with auras, like Ultimatum's, and you're forced into pretty much running around

    • balancing the game for both the regular andy (who plays alone) and party dudes isn't possible, this could take a whole thread on its own

    PoE has had very important, yet drastic changes in the past which were 100% needed for the game in order to fight power creep and overall overpowered systems, such as: shotgunning, vaal pact (insta leech), old doubledipping (poison mostly), etc. I believe aura stacking, atleast when shared with other players / enemies should be heavily adjusted.
