How to Trade in Path of Exile 2

[@CaspaDeSobaco]

How to trade in PoE2. Step one: send a whisper, which is always in korean or another asian language for some reason. Step 2: receive no answer. Step 3: Repeat the previous two steps about 300 times before one guy finally invites you. Step 4: Profit.

[@kkeithf]

Yeah the new player base sucks at trading

[@thoward98]

Haha this was exactly my experience. Just give me the damn amulet

[@obZen327]

This is my exact experience EVERY SINGLE TIME. I hate Gen Z and younger kids. They ruin everything and have no idea how to do anything.

[@maiwaifuisdead]

the trade whisper is generated based on the seller's chosen language. it's a decent enough metric to judge playerbase by country.

[@Intestine_Ballin-ism]

Can we have separate realm for Korea those dudes are insufferable

[@WarsWorth]

My favorite trick is setting max buyout values especially for early things. You do any of the trades Conner showed there, but add a maximum value you have to spend for the slot currently. Ckick search. Then sort by either the weighted value or another value you searched for. On the results, if you click on a stat, it will sort highest to lowest based on that stat. You can do this for weighted counts as well

[@Mizouille445]

It already changed my world when I watched your video on POE1 a while back, the refresher was very nice!! Thanks for that!!

[@cheeseNtoasted]

Thanks for taking the time to make this. I think it finally penetrated my thick skull of how weighted sum search actually works 😂

[@alexzephyris1455]

I got 4k hours on poe1, I still listen to the basics because sometimes you need a refreshen or missed something for 4000 hours of playing the game.

[@WarsWorth]

6k hours here, and same. It's my favorite part of PoE. You're always learning

[@smackd4b]

Attribute requirement is something I never even thought of. Always learning.

[@teeth-h2c]

Another thing that can help when using weighted sums is to set a buyout limit and sort by the sum. Clicking the sum itself on the item will reorder the list to be sorted by highest sum first. It's a decent way of finding out, "What's the best I can do for 10ex?"

[@kaseycervantes8204]

Start typing with “~” so you can type ~resistance and all the different types of resistance pop out.

[@rusduderus]

they JUST recently made it so that the top stats for search are res mana and max life, for like 2 weeks if you put "mum life" in the search bar you STILL had to scroll down a lil just to find THE MOST common stat everyone needs xDD and you still cant specify the size or sort by size on time-lost jewels and surely on some other ger i'd imagine

[@Ekaznae]

and, if desired, get the "Path of Exile Trade - Fuzzy Search" plugin to do it for you, automagically!

[@IronBear47]

Wow… as an engineer myself I fully appreciate your knowledge and sharing it with others on here. I am new to POE in general and am nearing maps and am looking forward to farming exalts to be able to trade for BIS gear for my build creation. This video opened my mind like a fully bloomed rose

[@nhomble]

Hey Connor, i trade for 4y and this video changed the way i see trading now (obviously i wasn't using weighted sum before...) Thx for that !

[@rennac9666]

Also a tip for weighted sum: if youre on a tight budget, lets say 5 ex, and you need boots, set a max price to 5 exalts - search - click the sum to sort by highest score to lowest. this causes you to see the highest scoring items within a certain cost.

[@applemacosx1]

One very important thing missed in this video is for ring searches or any other where applicable you HAVE to add and weigh the implicit modifiers accordingly as there are no pseudo mods in poe2 yet. To clarify if you want a ring with 50 fire res nothing besides rings with quality will show adding the implicit fire res to the weighted sum changes things to display 3k+ rings.

[@LHunt49]

I love the way you explain stuff man, thank you for the continued amazing work.

[@Tekvorian]

Great content as always. This channel deserves far more subs

[@alexzephyris1455]

14:55 Veteran part of the video

[@FernandoHernandez-cq9wn]

Thanks for the explanation, almost 3k hours and I couldn’t figure the weight thing out

[@Archangelmd]

Well, got to experience people posting an item then when you message them right away them pull it down and mark it up. I get people are looking for value but dang its frustrating. Dozens of attempts and posts and not one trade.

[@niwoh]

little PSA for the currency trade: Don't get baited by flips that look good but aren't, gold is very useful and if nothing else you can always use it to gamble for rares/uniques. The cost for currency trade flips is not time or currency, it's gold, all the "good" looking flips will cost you many thousands of gold per ex profit and unlike if you're gambling for rares, in the end you haven't added anything to the economy, you have simply scammed yourself by burning your gold.

[@idkIzaya]

love the video, i totally forgot weighted sum even exists on trade, gonna use that from now on! also, i gotta add: if one more korean guy runs into my map while i send him the trade request im gonna go mental

[@tttt-dx2nu]

"I'm not a great seller, but i'm a hell of a buyer" -some guy in a room

[@badonkadonkey]

solid video, since in poe 2 the pseudo search strings are missing, i converted to weigthed sum myself and it feels really good ... the last part about how set the weights was very educational

[@Shadowlet]

I really hate the tier reversing in this game for pricing my loot, a random T5 could actually be a high tier mod because the number of tiers aren't the same for every mod..

[@KR-pf1on]

This is such good information - thank you for sharing your knowledge. Smart people rule!

[@siorata4365]

Currently having tropuble with ES bosses do they recieve les damg from ignite or something?

[@TuneL0wDieSl0w]

Honestly just listening to this video is interesting because I’ve only got about 500 hours between both games so idk literally ANYTHING lol🤷🏼‍♂️ Thanks for the awesome videos/advice dude !

[@brain_segfault]

I don't understand why they went like 90% of the way in creating an auction house but didn't want to implement the escrow part

[@juanmiron2321]

hey man I think your final comments are respectable. I do the same. I priced it there, i'll sell it there. If they get a deal it'st the way she goes. I wish people weren't so damn greedy

[@jmdixon1]

As a new player to GGG's games, not having instant buy-out trading is quite the letdown. I used the trading site for the first time last night and of the 8 attempts to trade that I initiated via the site (sending an automated in-game message), only 3 responded and were transacted. Not fun just sitting around waiting for responses!

[@_unknown_guy]

This has been discussed over years by GGG countless times for PoE1 - theres was no good solution to do auction house. But as Conner said, gold now is a thing and it works pretty well for currency, we might get auction house with gold needed to list items. Gold basically equals time spent meaningfully playing the game.

[@Exilis]

Thanks, I feel like I'm an expert at utilizing the trading site now! I can't rule out that I've been zoning out at some point but I'm still not quite sure what to do after I've fund the item that I want, though.

[@Essemlol]

ive been using weighted sum alot since the total res isnt there. So if i want boots i would put mov speed and life and then res on a weighted sum and put max price and just pick the highest of the weighted sum

[@zurcarak]

When looking for armor make sure for example if u want armor and evasion to put a 1 on armor and evasion in equipment filters, this way it will only show those, i did the mistake of looking for everything but that and since i'm dumb blind i ended up buying armor and energy shield chest with the stats that i wanted 😂

[@samgreen8582]

I do this sometimes and buy stuff that is to high level for me, or some other issue lol

[@zurcarak]

@@samgreen8582 yeah on level requirement i put a number close to my level and usually pop ups items around my level

[@crosswalkwizard1]

This type of tutorial helps a lot..❤

[@manih5393]

Amazing video! Really wish there was a normalized weighted sum to cut the math but it is what it is. Time to undersell some items and make someone happy.

[@skippergl2664]

will divination cards ever be added to the game?

[@Grisu.]

yes

[@BerudPL]

is there is a way to search jewel with 4 mods? (not 3, not 2) THANK YOU for this tutorial

[@Ruxaes]

The comments on live search and instant pings are SO real, especially when its fairly priced items and ur not scumming ignorantly priced items.

[@cemtastemir109]

Did you update the build mate?

[@thomasgrimm1664]

Shout out to Lance! Very sweaty indeed.

[@zuliyat00]

Conner, I study the warrior's skills and find that the warrior is not a finished class, at least not a good way to counter the final games like other class, I feel sad, honestly.

[@maggotthemadman8142]

I'd love to just be able to play the game, but unfortunately it seems like this EA is a ticking time bomb for my PC. Between the complete lock up/freezes happening in loading screens and the game spiking my temps to above 80 degrees I'm gonna have to back out for a while, or at least until they drop a patch that addresses the poor performance/possible damage to computers. i7-10700f / RTX 3070 / 32gb ram

[@crosswalkwizard1]

For real? That seems like a great setup

[@obZen327]

Those 1ex boots in ur video, he would not respond and then put back up for 10ex

[@ysgramorssoupspoon2261]

I like to at least see what sorting by highest sum gives me, most of the time you see some 999 mirror trolls but sometimes there are actually good things relatively cheap.

[@titanicjack6744]

Even if they don’t want to give us a proper auction house I don’t understand why at the very least we don’t have a trading board like on console in POE1.

[@drunkrtard]

I never considered there wouldn't be a trade board. I hate not having it, especially since all the controls have been changed and chat/invites are clunky af. I want my board back.

[@TheSpoxez]

holy shit! that's how i'm supposed to use weighted search

[@TL-fe9si]

4k hours in poe1, and I still don't use the trade site properly. I'm gonna do it the right way next league in poe1.

[@Sphynx00]

How do I get a 6 link in PoE2?

[@alex7435]

Guaranteed but expensive way - perfect jeweller orb on a 5-link. Potentially cheaper but unreliable way - use greater jeweller orb to make a 5 link, apply quality if you want, then Vaal it. One of the potential corruption outcomes is +1 support sockets.

[@Sphynx00]

@alex7435 I guess I just didn't understand what the point of them being LINKED is. As far as I know it doesn't do anything like PoE? They just left it like that instead of 6 socket?

[@alex7435]

@@Sphynx00 it’s just poe1 terminology. Six-link = six socket, it just means you have a the ability to use 5 supports with a skill gem.

[@Sphynx00]

@alex7435 Yes but they actually linked them on the item graphically, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense to do 8f linking doesn't do anything in this game.

[@alex7435]

@ it’s just hard to break old habits. Same reason everyone calls waystone maps.

@18:50 LMAO i can tell there are some items you still look at that are just gonnee lol

[@Exirock]

i was wondering alot about trading has a newbie and can see its like a dead end, i tried do alot of trades for not even big itens and this people soon i wm them for it they go right away change the price for high dumb prices and say the price was right i was simply blind, majority of this people are asian folks based on they ID.

[@norveg31337]

or just use pseudo total, same thing, less sweaty

[@Nephiiz]

There are no pseudo's in the trade site for poe 2 yet

[@crosswalkwizard1]

I have basically been wasting my exalts! I should’ve used them to trade for specific items, then…

[@pickupsticks3942]

Oh we trading in divines now? what?

[@SuperCatacata]

Agreed on pinging people too quickly after they list an item. Greed takes over. People assume that since you pinged them so quickly a 5ex item must be worth 100ex. 😂 And then the item is stuck sitting there for eternity.

[@mrjenchilada]

I’ll never understand this way of thinking.

[@whylikethismyfriend]

Yeah I really don't like undersellers in last league there was this item at trade it was fairly priced compared to the others and I can afford it and then he denied my request with a message "bet you like it don't ya? XD" and then he overpriced it a minute after...stupid thing still in trade anyway lols and I crafted better
