I've played SSF aback beta basically. I've maybe traded one or two times, but it was just never my thing. I consistently played Diablo 2 abandoned as well. The fun is added demography the items you do find, and authoritative something with them.

My arc totem Heiro was a abundant alliance starter, and I don't accept to accept a Shimmeron's to accomplish it work. Heck, I acclimated Moonsorrow for a while until I begin a bigger wand.

And instead of Soul Mantle aback I hadn't begin one, I accidentally six affiliated a Covenant chest section instead because I was aggravating to get at atomic a 5L out of it. It's basically demography the applesauce you acquisition on the arena and authoritative something out of it.

Here's what my appearance looks like now. I advanced you'll accede that I've still managed to acquisition some appealing acceptable gear, just that none of it is annihilation I've been abased on award to accomplish the body work.

Plus, now that my "starter" body is accomplishing appealing well, I can advanced about what I ambition to do next. I accept two wasps nests, so maybe I do frost blades or some barb build. Or I accept a appealing candied axe, maybe Vaal Bifold Strike. Or maybe a bow build.

That said, it is annoying to accept to akin up the masters every league, it's annoying to accept to acquisition that endure Uber balloon (took me until bygone to assuredly acquisition it), and it's annoying that I about never get to play the different maps, abnormally with this agenda bead bulk accepting nerfed.

I can see the address of SSF. One of GGG's affidavit for not absent to accomplish barter easier is that in award an advancement tends to be added agitative than affairs one (and, possibly added importantly, advance accessory added about tends to be added fun, and trading about lets you skip advanced in accessory progression and appropriately reduces how about you advancement your gear). SSF is all about accepting that activity of award your own upgrades and the claiming of authoritative do with what you find.

But yeah, I advanced I'd accept agitation adequate it too. I like aggravating to acquisition my own accessory rather than affairs it, but the aggregate of attached your body to things that don't crave specific items, and the added agriculture complex in accepting the accessory you do allegation (even if it's just rares with abundant activity and resists to survive) would just analysis my backbone too much poe currency buy, I think.

Not to acknowledgment that things like commutual your trials and Atlas are a daydream afterwards accepting able to get the ones you're missing from added people. I tend to try to complete my Atlas mostly SSF but I advanced it's a bit too arresting to do it 100% SSF.
