Theres also great people out there. I was scamming myself yesterday. I was buying something for 25 exalts, and i put 45 and accept, but the guy (chinese name) cancel and told me it was only 25 exalts. Hope everyplayer would be fair with everyone like that guy.
1:32 usually if i see someone change the price i just waste his time, im in a map and tell him to wait a sec, Finish the map,go out, to stash, take another map, trade, cancel, tell him ups, open map and goo. Essentially only wasting his time.
Whenever I receive such offer for essences, I try to play dumb. The scammer comes to the HO, I accept his offer and put normal essences. I am hoping to reverse scam such guys.
Thx for video my totem brother, that kind of video can help a lot of new player and prevent them from being scammed, happened to a friend that never played poe1, and he loose few divine for a trash weapon, i was so sad for him... Anyway, wish you the best, you deserve more view my bro, keep going
Hi bro, it's a cruel world out there. Just ignore this idiots and ENJOY your game. Your video about totem warrior is perfect, learned a lot.... Me, just an old guy seeing that's not worth to get angry, waste of time and you cannot change anything. Just have fun !!!
Trade is so toxic in POE2, I've been playing SSF instead and having a blast. Constantly using exalts on gear has been satisfying my dopamine needs nicely.
This is a developer problem, these issues mostly exist because of their insistence on not creating an auction house system imo. Putting items in a “third party” system like a broker could solve this issue. PoE 1 on console has this system and it works. Trade ratings could work however I see a potential misuse of a system like that. Unregulated trade doesn’t have large scale or long term viability it can lead to a loss of player retention. Scamming is just an optimal strategy when separated from the moral complications and oversight, I mean at the end of the day it is just a game but you are still manipulating a real person on the other end.
It is the wow players they mess up community is pretty easy Poe one I've never seen some of the chats that's going on in poe2 now. Same thing happened in final fantasy XIV when all the wildfires came community went to crap
That brimstone ring is worth 2 divines? Ive been disenchanting stuff like that and better, i dont understand what makes that worth so much, maybe it throw it i. My 1 ex dump tab lol
the trade in PoE2 is infested with thieves and scammers, I just got robbed and how the little thief managed it is surprising to me, I was going to buy a jewel from him worth 3 divine orbs, only hot from the confirmation he managed to cancel the trade and keep my currency,
Well this Poeguy let me to scam him :) yesterday I pm him for a 30 ex amulet and offered 26ex. First he took 20ex and than give it back to me. Thanks again m8. Your totem build is insane. ❤
Another one is putting in different currency. I've seen this a few times now, maybe they're banking on the different (new for poe2), but quite similar looking currency graphics. I'll have something listed for a couple div, and they'll put in a couple - the ones I've seen so far - Chaos or Alchemy.
there's another scam like 4th, where lets say item is 5div and 40 ex, they will put 5 div or 5 div and 20 ex and cancel trade then put 1 div and 40 ex at that point you're checking the 40 ex making sure thats right but you miss that its 1div instead of 5, i've seen a lot of ppl get scammed like this, even got scammed myself once, sounds obvious once u hear it but when u've never heard about it it can easily work on you.
In the first scam, what happens when they change the listed price? Like if you list an item for 15 Divines but they change the chat to say 1 Divine, can you still cancel the trade when they only offer 1 Divine in the Trade window instead of 15?
Yes of course both parties must accept at trade window. Just double check items and currency quantity paid every trade and you will catch these shady acts quickly
I tested multiple times both Svalinn and The Surrender. I pined in the INFO channel over DIscord the reasons why I don't use Svalinn. Ill just copy paste: "6) There are two other shield alternatives that people can use for this build: **Svalinn** and **The Surrender** (I’ve marked the essential modifiers in the attached images). Because of the 'Block Chance is Lucky' modifier, Svalinn can raise our maximum block slightly above 75%! It also comes with a new spell, 'Cast on Block.' However, the problem with 'Cast on Block' is its long cooldown, which makes it pretty unreliable. To make things worse, 'Cast on Block' has a high Intelligence (INT) requirement, meaning that you’ll need to invest more into Intelligence on your gear and skill tree nodes. **I find 'Rise of the Phoenix' to be superior** because it raises your maximum fire resistance to 80%, provides extra fire resistances, offers a significant amount of % life regeneration per second, and can be purchased with an extra socket or a valuable corruption for cheap! If you decide to go with a Svalinn shield, make sure that you buy one with good rolls; otherwise, it’s not good. 'The Surrender' shield is nice for general mapping but performs poorly in one-on-one situations because you don’t block often. 'The Surrender' It’s not ideal for bossing." ///// Guild Discord link here: discord.com/invite/YwYW9BhSJK
Usually i insta add people whispering to me their kindly offers to buy items i'm not even selling or dont have a price set straight to ignore list. Sometimes i answer to whispers offering me lets say 5 ex with 6 ex, inviting people and not trading an item being drinking tea or searching browser, maybe they will learn some day. Don't know if its too rude but i dont care.
6:10 maybe thats why i cant sell items lol, i dont know how much its worth so i put lik 1 - 10 exalts, they probably think im scammer lol. Btw i havent been in contact with one so far i think.
Barbie Games made my day man
True 🤣🤣🤣
Same 😂😂
Trade in 2 is a complete joke. Not just the scammers but the morons that jack up the price to multi divines after they get a single DM for an ex item.
Easy dont buy it if its not worth it lol.
Its not the morons. They just mispriced something.
Theres also great people out there. I was scamming myself yesterday. I was buying something for 25 exalts, and i put 45 and accept, but the guy (chinese name) cancel and told me it was only 25 exalts. Hope everyplayer would be fair with everyone like that guy.
Trade is so bad in this game. So many new gamers, so many scammers. Its terrible
I was scammed trading a perfect jeweller orb for a fucking normal orb, 250 exalted burned :(
2:01 if you play PoE2 and came from a barbie game, please let us know how that happened :)
The most smart scam I noticed so far is trading thread of hope with same numbers but different radius,so always check radius as well!!!
Every game with trading has these scammers doing the same tactics. I can spot it from a mile away
"Diablo 4, Minecraft, Barbie games"
lmao

These guys always want to finish the trade quickly so just put a similar but shit item and scam them back
Thanks for the great totem guide! I'm really enjoying it! You're the man! 😎👍

Make 4th ascendency and you get all points automatically. Normally costs 35 ex

TFT is a legit discord. He put me onto this discord from Poe 1. Great sauce
You are so funny man 😂, thanks for helping the community
Awesome! Thanks my man
The last scam remind me of the super old d2 scam where they click on n off the items.
2:37 Look here look listen!
It is the wow players they mess up community is pretty easy Poe one I've never seen some of the chats that's going on in poe2 now. Same thing happened in final fantasy XIV when all the wildfires came community went to crap
Thats the dev problem, they could just notified the item was put in were different than the last one ezpz.
5 more reasons they should just put a market in the game.

Top 1 scam: ragegaming channel
