A good resource to find those little economy holes (opportunities!) is:


and the specific example he gave highlighted -

the site pulls prices from poe.ninja and right now poe.ninja is fucking the price up because the actual trade site lists the boots as 5 divines just to start out. Dunno why poe.ninja is lagging so far behind.

PoE has become an "Eater's Game".

We have a guy who literally started playing PoE about 7 days ago. He just mastercrafted his 1000dps vaal axe, rolling his clusters, and has completed his atlas.

Another guy has probably 5k hours in this game, has played for a decade and is following the same build and needs his hand held every decision of every step of an already step-by-step builld 20% of the entire league is playing.

The difference is the first guy wants to dive into the game and get obsessed with it. He's a degen level gamer type gamer. The other guy wants to play the game and do everything he sees everyone else but doesn't want to work for it. He just complains every step and compares the build to every build he's ever played (which he also complained every step of the way) and how they were better (when he had 200 divines in gear vs his 7 divine investment).

At this point it's like any other highly technical hobby. You're going to have a good time at the beginning then hit a wall. Then you need to decide do you want to put in possibly considerable effort to enjoy it more at a higher end or is it not worth your time and you should just find a less time consuming hobby.

I just want to drop in here and say fuck you, because that second guy is me. Bye, have a good time!

Yep, me too ... and that's why I didn't roll a char this league.

When Settlers initially launched, I did get my LS Slayer to uber territory and killed all but Maven / Sirius, but I was waaaaaaay behind the curve. At least I hit level 100, but not doing that shit again.
