King's March and Auction House: Core Mechanics Discussion

Ren believes the King's March mechanic is enjoyable but worries it may become tedious if implemented permanently.

### Thoughts on Kings March and Auction House/Gold Core
Ren discusses the pros and cons of the Kings March and the auction house/gold going core. He shares his thoughts on upgrading miners to level 10 and the importance of having a balanced team for shipments. Ren also emphasizes the value of mapping level 10 mappers for running tier 16s effectively.

### Level 10 Mappers and the King Mar System
The speaker has four level 10 mappers and aims to have a six-team setup for running corrupted red maps. They find the King Mar system and farming for passive income to be important for leveling up. The speaker suggests that the mobile version of Path of Exile should be more like Fallout Shelter, offering a more complicated gameplay experience, and they believe the auction house feature is crucial to go core.

### The Impact of the Auction House and Kings March
The Auction House has been a profitable addition to the game, allowing players to set up buy orders for cheaper items. Its impact is more significant in softcore than hardcore, where it feels less active. The Kings March mechanic is appreciated, with a desire for it to play a bigger role in the game, and the ability to name boats and individual players is seen as a missed opportunity.

### Thoughts on Game Mechanics and Enchants
The current enchant system is too restrictive, and there's a desire for more variety in which items can have enchants. King's merch has a significant impact on early game and late game progression, providing a viable way to experiment with builds. The potential core implementation of King's Mar mechanic raises concerns about it being too much busy work and possibly annoying players with constant upgrades.

### Thoughts on the Current Game Mechanic
The core mechanic of the game feels mandatory and may lead to a frustrating grind. The auction house could potentially become a central feature, while other elements might be scrapped. Overall, the league has been more enjoyable than expected, despite some challenges with gold distribution and its impact on different player activities.
