Merchant tab is NOT an upgrade.
" This isn't complaining about weather the new tabs are great or not, don't really understand how so many people draw that conclusion from this post. Read through it. Here's my general feedback post about the league https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3839572, and guess what, I like the async trade, it feels great. That is not what this post is about.

This change screwed me so badly in poe 1. I did not realize that it was going to randomly pick premium tabs from poe 1, and delete them into remove only. I needed them to play the game effectively, because thats how poe 1's economy works. WTF GGG, allow us to toggle the tabs to premium if we want or something. Literally game breaking. Nowhere when i upgraded them, did it say I am about to lose access to most of my premium tabs in poe 1, and GET F ALL in return for however long the leagues run at minimum? Bad form....

" It does say you lose access to them in PoE 1 until they implement it there. However, it will not be usable for storage of multiple types of items and the items you actually can store you can't without manually pricing each individual item that you actually can put in there, if they keep the limited functionality that's in effect in PoE2. That's the issue I have with it. The tabs I paid for are gone, and I've gotten new tabs that doesn't function at all like the tabs I previously had. And it is labeled as an upgrade. Either way, sucks that it happened to you even though you missed the text about it. Should never been an option to switch from one tab to another, in my opinion.

For a new system, not giving us the option to swap them back to normal Premium tabs during this League doesn't make sense. We should be able to try the system then swap back if we want. Make the swapping back permanent if they want to restrict it. That would be reasonable.
It is also pretty careless to permanently change all your tabs without even trying one out first. It's very clear you lose them in POE1 so if you cared about that at all caution was the obvious route. Even as someone who doesn't care at all about POE1 I still just started with 1 Merchant tab to see how exactly it worked. That just seemed like the obvious approach. I now have 3, which is probably fine, I started using the 4 normal tabs I still have for the most obvious/mundane tabs like Dump and Craft. The folder they are in is enough of a label.

people hit act 4 in like 5-10 hours. this isnt a big deal.
to the people who say ' i cant access my tabs until act 4'... would you care to share the number of things you would have tried to sell, and actually sold, prior to act 4 within the first 10 hours of a patch launch? (that you actually had drop) czu i can tell you right now, other than the divine orb i had drop this patch in act 3 or 4.... which i wouldnt have tried to exchange anyway... i can honestly say nothing that dropped would have been sold or would i have tried to waste my time to try to sell in a merchant tab. the majority of people say the drops during the campaign are bad...(they are) so what exactly are you trying to sell before your level 50? what is dropping in act 1-3, that you NEED TO SELL RIGHT NOW, upon a patch launch? cuz i can tell you right now, the number of people on a patch launch, looking to buy things, prior to act 4.... is so small it might as well not even be a thing. and to the people who will argue after 10 hours of a launch this being an issue.... now you are selling to established players farming so much currency and items itll make ur head spin if you knew the real deal. they dont want or need your lv 30 items. or the currency you are randomly getting. so again. what exactly... are you selling prior to act 4 that anyone gives a shit about outside extremely lucky div drops or the rare lower level unique... that can wait to be sold later to people who can actually afford the number you will attach it to and use it? no one is going to buy your +2 all spell level 26 wand. they can just gamba the same thing in town probably faster than it would take to find ur item teleport and buy it. |

" Speak for yourself, some people have very little time and don't blast on launch. You can easily sell levelling items for cheap currency throughout Acts 1-3 and for some players this is fun and is a help. Not everyone is a veteran who knows how to game the systems optimally and buying cheap cast-offs is a way to make progress. For me the main annoyance of this limit is it means lower levels can't buy from you when you first unlock it. And most of your stuff will be only suitable for lower levels. It's not the worst, but it is an annoying restriction. They could at least let people buy from it before unlocking it themselves. |

" again if your not blasting launch... and its 4 days later. what could you possibly have from act 1-3 that anyone who is playing 4 days later wants? any piece of gear that isnt a handful of low level uniques, can just be bought from a npc/gambled from a npc that will be onpar or better than what you have to sell. its at act 4. because thats where, in this patch, the 'endgame' starts where you are going into interlude and then maps. the exact place, someone would start to reasonably, look to buy upgrades, that would start to stop showing up in shops, and would need a lot of gold to roll gamba's. or would be starting to change their leveling build to their real build, and want to start buying pieces for it. look. i get what you mean, and want. and i wouldnt argue or care if it was open at lv 1 or 100. act 1 or act 6. i dont care either way. im just trying to explain to you why it is, where it is. its exactly at a point in the campaign/game where someone would actually want to, and have some currency to, look to buy things. in act 1-3 you are in no position, to have things to sell on a vast majority level, that anyone wants. (unless again, you get a div drop, or very low number of low level uniques. which still can wait to be sold when u reach act 4, where you would again, reasonably, be looking to spend that div, to upgrade or buy a necessary piece to your build with said div that will stay with you for the season most likely.) |

" Yes, I was careless indeed(tried making that clear from the start). But as a developer myself I know that users of my developed functions will misuse them if allowed and used in quantity, therefore I develop restrictions or safeguards to prevent or in some other way manage misuse. I am totally fine with losing access to them in PoE 1 until they are added there as they have stated they would. It's the lost functionality that bothers me, but also this is something that my previous point covers more or less. People WILL misuse what you put out there unless you make sure they can't. I am also using 3 of my converted tabs and would probably be fine with that number converted. Good input anyway :) |

" If you read through some other points I made in the post and also in the first post one of the big issues is the lost functionality from the tabs. |
