Except its nothing like when you found that vex rune. In D2 you would be constantly finding things of worth that you could readily trade so finding that vex wasnt THE DROP. In POE its chaos/exalt or do a research paper to see what your shitty item is worth in low orbs to poe tycoon for days to trade all the while finding shitty uniques that nobody wants and hoarding them for shards/whatever the hell you can trick people into paying for them.

POE is not any different from when d3 barrel farming was more lucrative that killing shit. Its exactly the same now. Im willing to bet 10 exalts that someone would get more loot breaking everything on the way to piety than farming maps hour for hour for a few days.

Got one one cruel dominus with my first character.

Found 3 so far. No divines or eternals though, and Ive never found an item worth more than 3ex...

Kind of boggles the mind to think about the play-time to exalt ratio, and then count up the exalts I have...


Flipping shit gets you exalts so fast you really become numb to the fact that each exalt youre carrying took dozens of hours to get, and all you did was buy something for x, sell for y, and poof in 5 minutes you have that exalt.

e/ i supposes bots account for 99% of all currency... so i guess theyre not that precious
