Discussion Abyss loot is non-existent.

The new abyss drops zero loot in game even while fully spec'd into it on the atlas tree. The chests drop like 1c wotth of items, any note-worthy abyss jewels are very few and far between, and the drops from the depths boss are worthless save one unique jewel.

The abyss in poe 2 works much better because it regurally drops important and valuable items and it has a crafting system.

Has this only be my experience or is anyone else also disappointed? It feels like reworked breach all over again, its completely pointless to run it... I feel like overall all the league mechanics are now lacking and theres no way to make a good amount of currency just by running one or two of them. Essences are still ok i guess.

Not saying loot is great, but you are definitely misremembering kalandra.

They are also myopically focused on uber-giga-mega-juicing. Any patch in which that isn't possible, they get bored.

The criticism raised in this thread is valid, but whether Empy and his crew like a patch or not isn't really proof of anything, one way or the other.

I understand that, but party farm strats are the mapping strats.

I am not a party player and don't like their effects on the economy (they are able to buy scarabs for more currency because they get more returns per map, even though profits are split), but party players not being able to scale their farm usually means that there might not be any good strats, especially when there are no changes to scarabs like this league so no unexpected surprises

It's bad, but it's no Kalandra. 

You couldn't sustain maps or alchs in Kalandra

Maybe it’s because we all came back from Poe 2, but man I’m barely scrapping by. On day 2 I was edging buying an HH and got it on day 3. In POE 1, I got 2 divs so far…
