People saying that KM is "skippable" like Heist or Delve - it's not, really.
All you need to do is buy a gold rota which takes like 5 minutes. Load up the gold to town and just wait for farmers to produce profit.

By not engaging in Heist or Delve I do not have any FOMO, because I'm farming other stuff in that time. It's either mapping, bossing, heisting, delving, whatever - you just choose content to run, that's fine.

Kingsmarch tho - it's generating value solely based on time gating, like a browser-based game. Progress is made WHILE you're doing other stuff. Or even being offline.

I'm proficient with it and made some incredible profits with both crops and bar shipping. On Phrecia I have a strat that's dishing 40 div per hour JUST FROM FARMING BARS AND SENDING THEM OUT. But I see it as harmful to the game. It just doesn't fit POE.

I was fine with this mechanic in Settler league. It's new, it's not "optimized", it's an experiment. Current league being on Atlas Tree (Necropolis) was an experiment too, and it was not repeated because it felt mandatory and was eating into Atlas points available to you. Experiments are fine. Integrating bad mechanics to core game is not fine. I don't want every subsequent league with this overarching FOMO crap over my head.

I'd say remove this completely. Shipping and mapping. Bring back that loot to maps and league mechanics.
