Delayed Loot can be fine
Loot Filters can be fine
Delayed Loot + Loot Filters is an absolutely miserable experience
Fun Fact; pausing doesn't pause the instance despawn timer. Was paused on a work call outside a grand heist and watched it despawn while in the pause screen 🤡

This was interesting cuz It highlights how this the definition of a "league start" ; (especially in SSF) may differ widely since it could be understood as:
The amount of Time played vs. The amount of Time passed
The amount of Time played matters more in trade because if you play 2 hours daily, launch weekend is 6 hours for you and the economy moves rapidly throughout that time
The amount of Time passed is tied to the economy as your build selection and its evolution is determined by how currency is fluctuating
In SSF The amount of Time passed is irrelevant since your in a vacuum and The amount of Time played is all that matters
So this was interesting for me because I consider the League Start to be anything that occurs within the first 3 days (launch weekend) but im playing 15+ hours daily, so its the first 45hours; which allows alot of things to occur and fall out of the traditional definition of "League Start" for many people; more-so for trade since that could be the first 3 weeks of daily play

Overall looks good for @pathofexile 3.28.
Per usual, high scope, high expectations so flawless execution and relative balance is paramount for this to be a win. Thinking of guardian absolution after the triple buffs🦫
The biggest unknowns for me are:
Will the rates of harvest beasts be increased to mitigate the loss of kirac missions as they were 99% of all harvest beasts acquired
Will the lesser rares from window mechanics be noticeable post settlers, breach, gambling etc nerfs
Will ground loot feel as good as it's being hyped up
Will exceptional gems be accessible given the removal of lab & bestiary exceptional supports
Looking forward to seeing the results from launch weekend 🙈
