Why are strongboxes so horrible? Rename to Trollboxes.

Every single strongbox I touch no matter the mods on it are a waste of time. Some of them drop nothing at all. What a wasted mechanic that was fun in poe 1.

I suggest allowing strongboxes to drop all sorts of sought after items.

I just gotta say that's my experience with them too, disappointing. I don't think spending currency for them is a good idea for me atm.

In poe1, the boxes themselves were not good, either.
However, if you come across one with the mods to spawn additional rare monsters, they're suddenly worth it.
You can even use currency to increase box rarity and score the rare monsters mod.

It's been a long time since I played poe 1 but I remember getting good stuff from strong boxes. I would quality them up and alchemy. You could get quality gems and other good stuff.

Most of the mechanics in the game are tuned so poorly and give so little they are mandatory skip.

Expedition is for example, a nothing sandwich -- there is no point in doing expedition in maps. Essences are so pointless with only 2 tiers and the most limited scope humanly possible, etc etc.


Most content has been setup to be ignored by GGG staff. They tuned it too poorly and removed rewards nearly entirely, I will not do any content that doesn't pay me. I don't work for free. I don't click for free.

If i'm to engage with something, it better reward me AND be fun. Full stop.
