Bless me, dear tree.
The newest Path of Exile season, or league, is a great example of why you should never look at how other players are faring in a loot-based action RPG. Once you see what life is like when the RNG gods are generous, all you will know is pure envy.
A handful of lucky players are posting their loot hauls from the new genesis tree introduced in Path of Exile’s latest expansion, Keepers of the Flame. Basically, it’s a freaky, haunted tree that gives birth to powerful items based on preferences you set. It’s only been a few days since it launched and players are swimming in the kind of loot you’d usually have to grind long hours for.
I haven’t struck gold yet and I’m definitely not jealous of the Reddit users who are posting screenshots of what is the PoE equivalent of finding a stack of Benjamins on the ground. Divine Orbs are one of the rarest currencies in the game due to their crafting value and players who aren’t me are finding buckets of them under their Christmas tree from hell.
For context: Finding 20 Divine Orbs on day three of the league skyrockets you into millionaire status if you like to trade with other players.
