[Vaal Temple] Rewards need to be nerfed badly, economy is in shambles
|
I'm trying really hard to get Rakiata's Flow for my build. Two nights ago, it was worth 70+ divines. Last night it was 111. I wake up to find it at 133. I understand the gem is a high demand chase item, but it never got this bad in 0.3.0.
And before someone comes in looking for a quick own and a hand wave: I understand farming for raw divs is a noob trap. I'm trying to farm Sekhema trials with Desperate Alliance relics to get Against The Darkness, but the rate I'm earning them and their value is being outpaced by the skyrocketing increase of the gem I want. The Vaal temple is the culprit behind this, people are optimizing the fun out of the mechanic to minmax rewards, pumping out tons of currency to the point divines are actually making exalts more valuable. It needs to be nerfed. I propose the following: 1. Make rooms destabilize at any length in a chain, remove the strategy where only the tail can be affected. 2. Any T3 rooms with rewarding loot should destabilize on completion, and can't be protected by medallions. 3. Buff Atziri and Architect chambers to be more rewarding in order to encourage people to run them. PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds. Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build! And the winds will cry / and many men will die / and all the waves will bow down / to the Loreley Dernier bump le 5 janv. 2026 à 10:46:49

If that’s the value that it’s changed too it’s not the temples fault
Divs have only lost 100ex in the last few days as value You’re blaming the wrong thing. It’s mostly due to availability at this stage Mash the clean

4) make room buffs affect 1 square radius with upgrade to 2-3 instead of global buff
5) BAN abusers next time |

" If you have nothing but false accusations to say to me it’s best to keep the discussion civil and refrain from that Divs haven’t lost value like the op says to the magnitude of tens of divs in several days They have lost around 100ex though in value. Rakiatas is a rare big ticket item. Its price in divines has no bearing on the temple dropping divines or not People just aren’t getting many of the support to drop compared to .3 Probably because they are doing the temple, where it can’t drop It’s that simple Mash the clean

" are breach splinters rare big ticket item? 2d for 150, it was 1d for 1500 in 0.3 |

Something you also have to remember
.3 was a broken league. You had people who saved tower overlaps that we used to be able to do. Along with quantity of items dropped on tablets as well. It’s really easy to see why rare stuff that comes from only mapping is having a huge price increase . It’s harder to get now compared to .3 Temple is adding a mechanic outside of mapping. Something last league we didn’t have. Mapping is where you stayed and not temple Mash the clean Dernière édition par Mashgesture#2912, le 2 janv. 2026 à 14:44:23

" It's a combination of both a lack of supply of Rakiata's Flow, and a huge influx of currency being sourced by the temple. People are farming temples for a reason, otherwise those who shoot for Jade Isles wouldn't have abandoned the strategy in favor of it, no? As for divines losing 100ex value, would that not be attributed to the significant increase in divines entering the market? The more you have of something, the less its worth. Temples are being optimized for significant amounts of item rarity and quantity among other things, so the game almost certainly skipping right past exalts to drop more divines.

" Its like 99.999999% lack of supply just look at the values you listed. Divs havent lost that much value in a few days. Rakaitas has gained an insane value though. Same for whilting, same for ancient bone, same for ommen annuls/erasures Same for lights... Same for everything IN mapping. Thats not the temples fault. Thats; its not available fault. Because everyone (the vast majority) is running temple. .3 comparison to now, look what we are all doing. Not mapping. Not having broken overlapped tablet tower changes mid league that were abused. Quantity of items dropped gone. Dont you think that had a massive effect on its drop rate??? Where does rakaitas drop? Mapping. Where we lost quantity of items dropped, no tower overlaps anymore. And noones running anomaly maps as often as last league. Mash the clean Dernière édition par Mashgesture#2912, le 2 janv. 2026 à 14:51:32

Even look at expedition splinters.
12 ex each? Exped logbooks drop like candy in mapping. Its really simple, people are focused on rushing the temple and ignoring map mechanics this league. Thats why all this map related stuff is expensive. Mash the clean
