What developments are you speaking of. If i go to work and just rearrange all day instead of being productive i wouldn't have a job very long. glad we waited 4 months for sprint.

I used to like trade league until the youtube currency farming strategy brain rot came to be.

Not to mention all the "balance issues" that are caused by Trade League.

Play SSF, if trade is removed the game cease to exist. A lot of people, and I suspect most people do play POE 2 because it allows trading.

There are tons of ARPG that don't allow trading, play those. GGG understands that a huge part of their player base are people who are playing around the economy.

If you hate this concept, really, you have chosen the worst game for yourself. Removing trading is out of the question and it's always going to pop in the forums now and then but virtually nobody wants trade to be removed except a very few number of players.

Even SSF players sometimes switch to trade league. They play SSF for a challenge and an acomplishment by feeling good about not needing trades to win in a game that most player do. The day they balance SSF with more drops vs less drops in trade league, the amount of player that play SSF will drop by a lot because that feeling of acomplishment will no longer exist.

This is one of the thing GGG does correct and you are wishing for it to be removed. You are entitled to your opinion and feelings about it but there is simply no way they will be removing trading. If they do, this game is dead.

I really enjoy the design of using orbs as currency, which creates enough excitement every time an orb drops. However, the current drop rate of Exalted Orbs is just too high, while their usage is quite limited.

In contrast, the usage of Chaos Orbs is practically bottomless, but they're too valuable to use without hesitation.

So I'd prefer if the drop rate of Chaos Orbs could return to what it was in PoE1—dropping in large quantities, allowing players to use them freely without worry.

-1 OP

"Exalted orbs aren't worth enough because of inflation, let's fix it by making them untradeable"

Huh? You do know it's probably because there's not enough to sink exalts into? Your solution is to remove the only sink? To make the first untradeable thing in the game a main currency?

Possibly the worst idea anyone has ever had, I am struggling to think of another. Maybe the Swiss in WWII deciding to stay neutral.

The reason Chaos is not the main trading currency is because it's worse than it is in PoE1. In PoE1 it's a full reroll, in PoE2 it replaces one affix. Completely different use cases, much more niche in PoE2 for potentially fixing one bad affix with 1/4 - 1/6 odds. Exalt is way more useful (without omens).

Weird thing about Chaos is Annul is also in PoE2 which is effectively the same thing if you just add an exalt and an extra step.

improvements to trade league will benefit ssf.

No, not quite. Most Trade League changes won't affect SSF.
SSF doesn't craft, that's the whole purpose.
Improvements to SSF (= better crafting) will benefit Trade though.
