Is there Any Purpose in Creating mirror Worthy Rares nowadays in 3.3?

With double corruptions, and High effectiveness of low budget builds being able to do all content. Is There any point? Can't Wait for 3.4/ 4.0 Major Nerf patch?

I mean, what can exist, already does, ES armor is dead, isn't this vicious cycle of power creep cycler worsening? as players we want to strive for more, require newer tiers, yet the game is getting MUCH easier?

Short answer : No.

Long answer : If your goal is to make a profit and you have thousands of Exalts, Yes. Otherwise, No.

Mirror tier items were never required for any of the content in poe. It has always just been about e-peen and perfecting your build to the max.

Boss killers have notoriously been some of the cheaper builds around since boss killing is usually only worth in the start of the league (except maybe uber elder).
You never needed anything too special even before all the recent power creep

Stuff like Srs, Aw totems, miners etc. never needed more than a 6-link to do most of the content.
Same with stuff like LA/KB+frostwall or chaos incinerate. Just a tabula + a few ex uniques and you could do everything

We have to go waaaaay back to those ancient times of low life buzzsaw, BoR+wings of entropy builds and split arrow+puncture where end game actually required some heavy investments.
Then again the end game at that time was just uber atziri and a few high tier maps and most of the players were completely clueless about the game.

I don't think most people would enjoy that (me included).
I like poe as it is now.

T15s-16s could be slightly more difficult and atlas mechanics (spawning uber elder especially) could use a bit of reworking.
There are also still a bunch of skills that need buffs (CA, ice spear and arctic breath for example) and some ascendancies as well (berserk)

but all in all I think poe is looking pretty good. New content is being added constantly and the next patch is supposedly a pretty big one.
I think most people who are complaining are people who have spent thousands of hours playing poe and are slowly getting burned out (take a break guys).

Not worth making anymore, but I'll always love seeing amazing 6T1 pieces.
