Any way we could -NOT- have bestiary added to core?

I havent seen a Vaal in 3 days.....idk even know whats happening anymore.

Nothing is happening, you aren't using the available tools, if you lack vaal orbs, run maps which drop div cards for them. If you lack alchemy orbs you do the same or sell uniques. Or you get better at the game and trade for it.

72 hours aka 3 days of played time with any decent build will give all the orbs you need.

I have a very strong feeling that this league mechanic will be added to the game for one very simple reason...

The voice acting for the Bestiary NPC Einhar. Voice acting isn't cheap, nor is it a truly simple process to implement, so to that all that work to throw it away will not be an easy pill to swallow.

This is 100% my concern as well. Do you know roughly how many lines of dialogue Einhar has? I can make a pretty close estimate to the cost based on that.

I do not know off the top of my head, but I believe it is somewhere along the lines of 12 to 15. He has upwards of 6 different thinks he says while capturing, 1-2 different things when he "upgrades" as you progress through the leveling of nets in the first act, his dialog when you complete his quest and he says that capturing is the reward, and all his dialog in the menagerie when you talk to him.

Again with the perandus not being added to core, as I said they could keep it for a Zana mod or a legacy league like they have done currently with perandus, so I do not think that Bestiary will ever just be "Deleted" as some have suggesed.

Do I believe it will go core, hopefully not unless some MAJOR polishing on this turd is done.

I would have much rather seen Harbinger go core, as it allowed for so many casual players who might not have had the time and investment into path of exile access to end game content and I personally know of several players who had never even been able to get into serious end game content due to lack of availability of playtime or lack of wish to grind the atlas be able to play and experience the end game with Harbinger league.

I hate Einhar's dialogue. Calling beasts stupid is cheeseball.

^What makes all of you so convinced the nets replace currency and map drops?

As far as i know this is and never was the case and just a thought put forth by people who have little to no experience with PoE the base-game and are all coming down from league's like breach/abyss/harbinger.

All of my currency piles are equal to past experiences of the base-game.

I'm also struggling with the people who post this... I really haven't seen any evidence to support it. My currency drops in Bestiary have been similar to past leagues.
I've also played quite a bit of standard this league and there's really no difference in drops.

I really want GGG to add bestiary to core.

The red/yellow beast showing up on maps is pretty fun, other than that they could dump the rest of this league and I wouldn't notice; the whole net mechanic is really clunky and honestly I've stopped using it entirely. As a relatively inexperienced player, there's already enough stuff going on that I barely know about; beast crafting/tracking/capturing seems a tad overboard

Many hours of playing time, that's what makes me more than 100% convinced.
I was playing in the league until about a week ago when I finally gave up on it.
Since then I have been mapping back in Standard.
The difference is night and day in drop rates. I play quite a few hours during the average week, so it really is very noticeable to me. I'm also quite fortunate in that my atlas completions in both are quite similar due to shaping.

Try comparing it yourself doing 1 week in one and 1 week in the other running similar levels & rolls of maps...

I don't want to deal with a "Complete Bestiary" challenge in every future league. And you know that's gonna happen if Bestiary goes core.

These types of posts make no sense at all.
For people that like the content and want to do it you would take away that experience in exchange for not having to spend 1-2 extra seconds per map fighting slightly harder mobs? lol

And again.....you are missing the #1 complaint, no-one cares about the mechanic, yes its easily skippable.

The reason the league is an absolute ghost town is b/c of the currency and map drops. As long as the nets remain an item drop and continue to occupy currency and map drops no-one wants this garbage.

Go ahead and tell me im crying, or how the league is awesome. When your done with that please explain why everyone's friend lists are empty, exalted orbs were 100 chaos ONE month in and ign chat is 90% goldbot spam 24 hours a day.

This league is absolute garbage, the fact that GGG plainly said in their 3.3 announcement "due to the feedback we wanted to get back to what people want in an arpg, killing monsters and getting loot" tells you its crap and they know its crap.

The producers themselves have written this crap off and moved on to 3.3 so snap the fk out of it. Go back to the announcements and just spam every new mtx release with 1 line hype posts, thats about all you fanbois are good for.

Saying it over and over again does not make it true. Please find me one place where what you say is confirmed by something other than folks who played the league for 3 days and went into full tantrum mode.

I'm aware of one official statement on the matter from GGG and it completely contradicts what you're saying. If there is another, please share it.

I would offer up my own experience but it's purely anecdotal. You know what, f-it....this is General Discussion where something becomes fact simply by saying "Fact." I've been running T16 maps for the better part of a week straight and the number of them that I've bought to support that is a first for me in any league. Zero T16 maps bought for that montage. Zero.

I've also had significant amount of higher currency drop; on par (if not better) than my last three leagues -- I would say 15-20 exalts dropped so far which is about on PAR for my progression. My stockpile of alchemy orbs is the largest it has been in any league. I tend to hover around 50-70 without gaining ground in other leagues while my current stack is 248.

So please, help me understand why you believe this to be the case other than saying "Because I say so." I won't say you're wrong but based on GGG's statement on the matter and my own experience, you certainly don't seem right.

What possible harm would adding it in the game cause?

The early game crafting recipes alone make B league more impactful on the act content progression than basically any other league so far.
