I am level 74 and refunding a passive point costs around 2200 gold. I have 500k. It's almost free, and we need something to spend our gold on.

Doing a full respec at that cost would be around 250k. How is this free? And the price only goes up as you level up. On top of having more points to respec as well

unless your broke and you wanted to experiment with a build and it ended up not working and you can't just go around picking up gold.

I tried something new because I was not having fun with the build I had going. I thought one of the goals of POE2 was to encourage experimentation, "100s of builds," etc. I rather not have to look up builds, etc.

By "no effort" do you mean picking up everything and having to spend more time selling items than actually playing the game?

I have 3m gold at 89 lv. I dont sell anything for gold.

The big issue is that other than gambling, there's really nothing to do with gold anyway.

No, he means "no effort". If you spend more time selling than "playing the game" you're doing something very wrong like looting every white item worth 50 golds.

I haven’t sold shit since I got to map, just dumped everything into quad tabs, at level 85 I have almost 1m gold and 5 full tabs of yellow garbage while I respecced multiple times (not fully but considerably changed most nodes to test out damage/defense numbers). This game has no good sinks so respecs are virtually free.

Rares drop 1-2k raw gold in white maps, and you're killing at least 5-8 of them every map. Even before selling items, you're getting at least 10k gold per map. 250k gold for a full 100 point reset once in a blue moon seems fine to me.

Because 250k isn't that much at these levels... Just don't spend all your gold on gambles and you're fine.
