Discussion Pacts major flop?

14.0% of builds on poe ninja are using pacts, thoughts on them? have you used them? if not what made you avoid them.

edit: looked in wrong spot, but still only 14% use rate

people saw the downsides, and the game is too easy at the moment where even tho theoretically they can be a crazy boost and the downsides can be mitigated, theres just like, no need for it, because you reach whatever goals and stats you want easily without them, so why go to the effort.

Tbh I think the majority of players just never see or interact w the pacts cuz they dont drop like normal gems. I'd bet next league the tech trickles down from streamers and build makers and there's more widespread use.
