My only reason to keep up solo/SF is the lesson learned in D3v.
What i did to my precious Barb was hearth-breaking and kept me playing that character after i get some good gear..
Long story short: played D3v like 700 hours totally solo/SF(lol, i didn't even know that was a thing), found myself in a situation that i had millions of gold that i could'nt use.. add 2 bottles of wine and an AH..you get the picture.. :D

After i had good(not GG( gear, i just hated that character, playing with it was just wrong, like i had skipped 1000 hours ahead.

When i finally started PoE, there was no way that i'm gonna spoil my characters in any way.

PoE could be one of the worst games where you solo/SF, but i'm sticking with it.

I totally respect anyone that go for trading, there has been times that i almost traded(like having 2 exa's and eternals at the same league).. but gladly i kept my way and instead selling those, i used them on "crafting" :D go liferegen go!!

So what's my point here? Well, i'd like to know why you keep SF'ing, why don't just go for trading and if you are allready trading, why some of you keep mocking self-founders?

I just want to see every PoE player happy, do what you like, it's possible in this game.

One big downside to playing SF is that you do not have the uniques that you need for special builds. And if you do have them there is always the question of whether you want to invest your orbs to make them viable. A 5L can be quite a big thing, a 6L is basically out of the question.
From my experience PoE can become a bit stale if all you can do when making a build is stacking offense and defense, and end up with a char that just gets by.
Principally I play SF but very rarely buy some things to prevent that from happening. Like today, two Divinarius for a total of 36 chaos. Not a build enabling unique but a very good one, especially for the price.
I think the best you can do is do whatever is the most fun for you, and stuff principles.

I have no problem with those who go self-found. Just don't QQ when you hit a wall and still refuse to use the resources available to you.

It's like going to Chipotle, ordering a bowl, and bitching when you decide to eat with your fingers instead of using the forks provided to you, all because you are in some small niche group of "self-feeders," and you have a tough time.
