[sudden kettle]

Yes

[short peak]

yeah once it's legendary bricked by nemesis

it's their only use

I get it

which is outstanding

[sudden kettle]

I put unstable core as my Weaver tree imprint. Drops pretty frequently at 1200c. I have 2x2lp

[short peak]

im at 300 corruption

I can barely stay alive

I can't kill abberoth

I need an helmet from aberroth

to be tankier

[sudden kettle]

Build a flame reave alt, stun normal Aberroth to death

Or swap to lightning blast for a minute

I kill him before his phase 1 animation finishes

[short peak]

damn

I had this

I probably should put unstable core in more places

[short peak]

I think if I do that

i'll rather reroll

but poe 2 is nearing

not much time

idk how long people play a build

[unborn hamlet]

Some for few days

Then there is people like me who play the same build entire season or more

I like to minmax

[strange needle]

I played entire season before nowdays not worth imo anyway 11 days for poe 2

[sudden kettle]

You are playing Runemaster right? Just slap on some lightning blast gear.

[glad marten]

No you don't

Its a great helmet

But like...I killed aberoth with a raw vilatria helm

If you want to send me your current character I can give advice. Or you can reroll or play something else or w.e.

[sour basalt]

It's funny seeing 1 in 10000 LP's in the game. Red ring is 1:1500 for non-CoF for 2LP and it's a really hard find. But it's also really good and has very narrow rolls. And then you have Unstable Core which has not 1, but three very important wide rolls and makes it practically unusable if you get low rolls, but alas it's 1:10000 for 3LP xD
But 2 LP is 1 in 100, common enough to observe, but unlikely to hit well-rolled unless you controlled it with an imprint.

[unborn hamlet]

not really it can still take days to get even at 1 in 100 because its a very rare drop wise

specifically without prophecies

red ring im not even gonna talk about

[sour basalt]

No way, core is easy to farm with imprints. Even on MG

[unborn hamlet]

at least 2LP core is not hard to reroll

[sour basalt]

The rolls are far less likely to hit than the LP, so you farm them with imprints, fix what you can and turtle it.

You'll get a few very good 2lp ones without much fuss, just some focused grinding.

[unborn hamlet]

i mean

im never beating the core i have so it doesnt matter

even if a 4LP were to drop 😂

[sour basalt]

Nice nice. Playing LB?

[unborn hamlet]

yea

its literally a near perfect GG item

[sour basalt]

What's your char?

[unborn hamlet]

whats sad is that since this slam hit i never dropped a double T7 armor

[proven haven]

I do have a 3LP unstable that I dropped last season and never used because shit rolls. At least now with corruption I could realistically fix that

Then probably miss 2nd prefix anyway xddd

[unborn hamlet]

it be like that

i dropped 3LP foot of the mountains from turtle so already max rolled after cycling them like 500 times

hit slam for t7 int and speed

missed suffix i wanted but whatever

corruption be like -> 6% cold resist go f urself 😮‍💨

[proven haven]

I've mostly stopped bothering with 2t7. Ill craft the ones I get and prayge but otherwise too much effort.

76 is plentiful enough that I can mostly craft slams manually without imprint stuff

[spark vector]

You could drop a 4LP, Triple T7 slam it and then get the same corruption…

You wont, but you could

[unborn hamlet]

ive corrupted so many 1LPs for rerolling , and never got the attribute corruption on any of them

this one was literally a miracle from the lord of RNG

[proven haven]

Still waiting for my miracle. Got +1 all skill T7 int Argentus though

Kinda not bad

Getting good outcome isn't that hard, getting a good outcome you want is hard

[unborn hamlet]

me with entwined rings

[proven haven]

Like when my fire aura praetorian belt turned into 0 armour 1 potion slot belt. How is this good outcome...?

[unborn hamlet]

ive bricked/got useless corruption on over 150 of them by now

and entwined is not an easy thing to farm

[proven haven]

Yep ill be doing that with my gavel

Same story

Gonna be fun

[unborn hamlet]

its actually crazy ive corrupted 150 of them and didnt get anything usefull on any of them outside of maxroll

[proven haven]

Whats the tech, just spam rift chains over and over?

[unborn hamlet]

i buy omen veils

cycle them all

buy bags of bones with extras

and spawn rift chains from the last few

[proven haven]

Yea thats what I figured, did some of that

Bone bags felt inefficient to me vs more rift chains but didn't do the math

[unborn hamlet]

the thing is, i gotta keep being neutral on omen veils

and spawning 3 rift chains from one is very negative 😂

[proven haven]

Oh I just spawn less than 3, cycle

Then I leave gaps for woven echo imprint procz anyway

[unborn hamlet]

i do 100 a cycle, spawn 3 from last 5, so 15 total, and got about 300-400 shards left over which i buy bags with

[proven haven]

Jeez

Yall grinding

[unborn hamlet]

all dat

still not perfect altar

still a single usable omen idol

😂

[proven haven]

Thats encouraging lmao

[hybrid girder]

what's your best altar so far?

[unborn hamlet]

the one i got equipped, planner up in chat

i got 1 better one technically, but its the wrong shape for my idol set up

lemme dig that up

[proven haven]

I still havent dropped a single omen idol with fire aura area / fire resist. And still only dropped 1 with a higher rolled fire aura area than a regular grand idol

Wtf

[unborn hamlet]

this is theoretically my best altar

[proven haven]

Kinda cracked

No omen though, good thing omen idols dont exist anyway

[unborn hamlet]

i did the math

and no matter how good of a prefix/suffix altar u will drop

[hybrid girder]

the pyramid is solid 58/30 1 omen

[unborn hamlet]

+4 to omen idol capacity and 5 maxrolled omen idols will be the strongest

[proven haven]

Isn't omen only like 30% more stat

And no enchant

[unborn hamlet]

omen roll range is exactly doubled from the normal ones

or at least the for the stats i want for LB it is 😂

[proven haven]

Wym

Is it?

[unborn hamlet]

cast speed on normal is 19%

cast speed maxroll on omen is 38%

[proven haven]

Wasn't it 27 or something

Strange

That sounds like a bug

[unborn hamlet]

hmmm

actually im not sure now

i can boot up the game real quick

[proven haven]

I think its not double

[unborn hamlet]

i got one equipped thats 27%

but i was sure its not maxrolled

lemme just open up the game

[hybrid girder]

omen idols are strong esp when start spamming a lot of vision boss and get some bis ones

[hybrid girder]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/Thunderskunk/character/Chopchop

[unborn hamlet]

its 28% not 38%

bad old uncle memory on me

ok that makes more sense to me too

but still this is more than 30% increase no?

from 19 to 28

its something like 45%

[proven haven]

Yea

Ish

But you lose enchant

And can't expect perfect suffix and prefix realistically

[unborn hamlet]

i mean i dont even have perfect normal idols 😂

ofc i dont expect perfect omens

[proven haven]

I got some giga omens on MG but I've been in struggle town since

[proven haven]

I think flat was maybe better now?

Didn't do math

[unborn hamlet]

perfect set up is +8 flat weaver on all

and %light dmg on suffix

[proven haven]

I mean flat suffix

Er.. maybe

Enigma nerf and more int means flat gains value vs 1.3

[unborn hamlet]

i will be testing the sunrise altar if i get another one of these anyway

[proven haven]

Giga

[unborn hamlet]

i had one more

guess what corruption did to it 😂

[proven haven]

My HC dude is still rocking poo

just waiting for that 4LP laddle to drop...

[pearl falcon]

you got the point in spellblade tree for dual wielding one handed swords

you're using a staff

[errant dragon]

Ye forgot to take off after switching from dw

Couple other passive/skill mistakes in that planner too

[short peak]

thanks for the proposal, got a bit depressed and tried to corrupt my gear hoping it got stronger my T7 disintegrate relic got poofed 😭 anyway im levelling up a sentinel (new meme build coming) and an acolyte

so I give up

but I had a great run

I got to aberroth

most of my builds can't even do that

[harsh abyss]

If you want the easiest build known to man: Attunement stacking Judgement (consecrate) using Spirit Xylem and slap in Smite to give yourself something to do.

[hybrid girder]

following this build. curious to see which primordial you end up with. keep thinking whetstone could be stong for several builds

[harsh abyss]

Does a reforged set item work for the gavel mainhand?

I didn't think that'd count as an exalted

[proven haven]

yes

[harsh abyss]

That makes gavel so much better

[short peak]

im doing two builds. Following a blood spectre profile and doing a void dot buiild with ravaging aura, decaying orb and abyssal echoes, void beam

[mellow prairie]

Can someone help me understand something? I see Orian's Descent belt being used in a couple builds but like... all it has is Int? Is that so valuable over something like Strands of Souls? 🤔

[nimble shoal]

Yes

[harsh abyss]

Remember, for many buids, int is giving you:
-increased damage
-flat damage
-crit chance
-ward retention
-shock chance

and either
-cooldown reduction
-ward decay threshold

Plus any skill-specific bonuses from skills like Runic Invocation, Disintegrate, or Focus

Not to mention generic stat stacking like the new weaver set

And 20 int is more than a T7 int affix

[unborn hamlet]

And you get that sweet sweet mana on potion use

[harsh abyss]

Yeah, mana on potion use and cast speed as well

[surreal rain]

And it is actually casting those smites somehow. Don't know what's the damage of it and scaling tho

[unborn hamlet]

Not much, but it counts as a hit , so it applies shred

[wispy lichen]

first time Spell blade blade here, Is it 300c viable for using melee attack to trigger spells with the same Elemental type while also sacling both melee FLAT damage part and the spells part?

[hybrid girder]

corruption shouldn't matter for triggered effects. depends on whether you're shatter strike or flame reave tho

[wispy lichen]

did you mean I can scale both melee and spell at the same time and still do well in the endgame?

[spark vector]

Attribute stacking is my least favourite part of LE, I think it’s really uninteresting that at least 7 affixes on most builds are already reserved before anything else is even considered

[harsh abyss]

Yeah, I dont mind it in theory but its just too ubiquitous, especially on mage. I feel like its the default and builds that dont stat stack are the novelty and its kind of uninteresting.

[sour basalt]

A handful of pieces stand out as having more int than anything else, so at that point all builds start looking the same if all you want is max int

[unborn hamlet]

Maybe, but saying affixes being reserved automatically is a bad argument

Cos that goes for literally every build

Besides let's face it

Even if I were to get 1000 int I would still be doing less dmg than falconers

And blade dancers

And VKs

And Shatter strike

And judgement

Want me to continue naming builds that outdmg anything mage can do by 10000 fold?

[wispy lichen]

did they just buff all mage class 2 season in a row ?

or I remember it wrong?

[unborn hamlet]

Buff?

Mages are literally only getting nerfed since they existed

It's a running joke that if anything is OP as all hell or bugged as turd the answer to all is to nerf mage

[wispy lichen]

oh okay I maybe confused then

is this the reason I have hardest time just leveling with mage?

[sour basalt]

Mage leveling is always an acquired taste, similar to warlock, as nothing really has "oomph"

[wispy lichen]

oh okay

I just run Forged weapon Forge Guard and it literally melt campiagn in a sec

while mage need almost the entire 3-4 minute for finish a boss

[harsh abyss]

They did buff some things in mages two seasons in a row. HOWEVER, what they buffed were things that were effectively useless, and they brought them up to a level of "meme functionality" (see Frozen's Black Hole uber one-shot video).

Meanwhile, they've been fully reworking other classes, and in doing so have added IMMENSE amounts of power to them. The example I use is how easy it is to get ALL your resists and defense covered on a paladin. You basically get them for free, with passive buff skills that have whole trees about making you substantially stronger. Meanwhile mage with a fully specc'd out passive tree still feels like wet tissue paper.

If you were doing enough damage to trivialize all content because you're a glass cannon that would be one thing. But the paladin is also like 100x stronger offensively just out the gate.

[unborn hamlet]

better nerf mage again

[harsh abyss]

Watch the ignite scaling for black hole fire resist get cut in half

[unborn hamlet]

u wanna know whats funny?

when they fix the broken interaction to the entwined ring

dmg cut in half

😔

[harsh abyss]

The amount of points that mage skills have to spend on QOL that should be default is immense.

[unborn hamlet]

look this entire class needs a rework

every subclass every passive tree and every skill tree too

mage looks like cancer compared to stuff like void knight

[spark vector]

No, it’s not bad and is unavoidable for builds to have their best stats. My issues is that main stat is the best affix on basically every build.

Builds where this isn’t the case are the outliers.

[harsh abyss]

On the plus side, it makes it easy to try out many different builds because once you build the set for one, you've got a set ready for all the others!

[wispy lichen]

so just stacking the INT and every mage build will be fine?

[unborn hamlet]

not every

but most of em

[glad marten]

Its a small pro in a huge list of cons

[harsh abyss]

Gotta see that silver lining somewhere 😝

[glad marten]

I refuse to int stack and play mostly mage

I'm doing my best

[harsh abyss]

Cleaver Str Stack doesn't count 😝

[robust junco]

Yo mage team

Does this one inherit More Dmg applicable to the core ?

[harsh abyss]

Doubtful, unless the alt-text specifies

But IDK for sure

[nimble shoal]

Alt text does say it does

but also says it doesn't

[robust junco]

[robust junco]

Ok team

Its all coming together

Who said we didnt have void mage

[robust junco]

I wish they kept Ward per second per Fire Aura stacks

Now that its good

[stone rapids]

devouring orb at home

[harsh abyss]

And allow mages to get 1/5 if the ward per second that paladins get? Yeah right.

[zinc pewter]

The STR version of flame reave spellblade withfrenzy belt + cleaver solution + eye of reen is better than the int version of 2H staff with jasper and truesight glass?

[robust junco]

Wait a minute

https://youtu.be/mFcl95rCNw8

My first VO in every zone is longer

And the others just do a full lap

[mellow prairie]

thanks for the explanation guys, appreciate it

[hybrid girder]

weapons sets in order of damage: torch+reen, traitor+reen, cleaver+reen. they are all within a few mil dps of each other. cleaver+reen has the benefit of the ward retention, traitor has +4 to flame reave

scissor in the off hand can be good with good affixes+corr

[strange needle]

Lol cant be played like that

Weird first one is different from the others

[short peak]

wtf I dropped this one day

[unborn hamlet]

Only good if you don't use primordial item

[short peak]

dude now im playing

blood spectre

very cool

[unborn hamlet]

I wanted to try paladin but I just can't deal with doing the campaign again

Will see about the new classes whenever they release

[spark vector]

If you have keys or a friend you can skip most of the campaign anyway

[short peak]

paladin is worth it

[unborn hamlet]

I have OCD. If I start something it has to be 100% completion

I finished all possible collectibles in lost ark, I am not fine in the head

[strange needle]

You can skip the entire campaign pretty much with pally and hammer throw and start your monos the first time you arrive at the end of time

[harsh abyss]

You can probably do that with fissure smite too

[zinc pewter]

jasper searing pride isnt worth?

[strange needle]

Not at the same level though way faster with hammers

[vivid wolf]

jfc

even the cards?

Lost ark was amazing but I had to stop playing I put like $5,000 into that game BUT I had a +25 weapon and absolutely fing hammersmlerged content with my team before they blocked a bunch of our group from playing in Macao (sp?)

[unborn hamlet]

Yea I had everything outside of 1 island soul that was unoptainable at the time

[unborn hamlet]

I had to quit cos it was ruining my life lmao

I slept at little as an hour for day just to max game time

For good part of 6 months

Work, get home, grind nonstop

[vivid wolf]

Yeah I did that whole run 6 characters and do carries every week - we had a 6 man team we had schedules for everything that game was so good but 100% was working and gaming was not healthy

[spark vector]

I understand that, I like to do the same.

Are you actually OCD? I’m not just like things to be finished 😅

[unborn hamlet]

not diagnosed but i have this awful feeling hard to explain, im super lazy, but when i start something, it has to be done and it has to be done right

i dont have like a tick that when i see something croocked i gotta straighten it up for example, but most stuff like that will still mildly annoy me when i see it 😂

[spark vector]

I work with a lot of ASD kids that can be like that, might also be worth looking into

[hybrid girder]

it's great in other builds esp if you go for tanky (ie truesight glass). it's pretty far behind dual weld in fangs+rampancy tho

[vivid wolf]

Question - Is there any way to max out or improve blessings? I've had the same blessing dozens of times but it never hit above about the 50% of it's capacity, just keep going or?

[nimble shoal]

Only things you can do are run on 200c+ for higher blessing drop chance and FK lucky blessing rolls. Then spam the boss fight in whatever way is most convenient, such as spamming time stones.

[wispy lichen]

it is sad that SpellBlade doesn't have natural Lightning melee skill

except Surge but Can it be a main DMG skill?

(I don't like mana strike because its visual is just swing the blade without extra FX that make it feel powerful like Fire Reave or Shatter Strike)

[nimble shoal]

Mana strike is also a natural lightning melee, not that it matters too much whether something is "natural" or converted to lightning like shatter strike. I don't think you would particularly want to scale mana strike or surge as your main damage, but shatter strike is very good.

Lightning firebrand is there, too, idk if you can use that as your main damage though, it certainly seems better than mana strike, at least

[wispy lichen]

this is maybe my bigger problem, I tend to pick skill based on how it look good or not lol

and fire brand lightning converted for me, feel like the Mage just cast lightning spell not swing his blade

so it feel like caster not melee for me (animation wise)

and shatter strike I had tried it and yeah It both look cool and have good DMG TBH

but I can't find how to fix mana without using Mana Strike

so I gave it up and goes Fire Flamereave instead

maybe If I have more experience with Spellblade and find the idea to fix the mana then maybe I switch bach to Lightning Shatter Strike

[strange needle]

There is no other way you have to use mana strike to recover mana

There is a trick you can do that makes it feel better when you have to use and alternate between mana strike and shatter strike

[wispy lichen]

oh okay thanks

[hybrid girder]

don't forget shatter strike to lightning

[whole jackal]

full fire aergons fire ball RM has crazy aoe clear

performs better than I thought

Nah i won't play LB

Did that before

Just testing a bit with some fun builds, and that's the current project

and triple fire RI has really nice screen wide clear

Its fun to play

I'm mostly done with the season

[spring crag]

mistia got new build again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iav4Z97NHRM

but I wonder, is the reason for going spellblade is for mana sustain?

[kindred oxide]

They get a lot out of that. Defender of welryn with calculated destruction from sorc tree gives easy access to crit cap. Since there's so much incidental Dex from All Attributes.

The ability to dual wield. Strength to Int conversion and Spell Damage conversion at the same time.

Firebrand gives a ton of Spell Crit Multi and Spell Damage.

That's a really cool build.

[spring crag]

wait why do we care about strength?

firebrand make sense

oh wait

strength is for endurance threshold

but the damage multiplier from sorc is good too

because volcanic orb is a high mana skill

[kindred oxide]

Str from Cleaver becomes Int
Palarus converts into Spell damage.

Then Melee Damage converts to Spell Damage from Spellblade mastery.

Also, they have an insane amount of Armor from that STR. Firebrand gives 540 more. Resonating Aegis interacts with Armor too.

This is a pretty genius build I love it.

[spring crag]

oh yeah

I forgot about palarus

genius build

[kindred oxide]

I'm not crazy about legends entwined builds lol. In some ways it takes away diversity, but this is an argument Flon favor of it.

This build can't exist without the sheer attribute dump.

It makes really clever use of it

Missed opportunity to say "cleaver use"

[strange needle]

Lets see it being copied again by maxroll all mistia builds are bangers

[whole jackal]

in general you can do fany things with cleaver + palarus

also maelstrom crit on druid

[sour basalt]

THat's a lot of tech to make the build work

[spring crag]

And they will make it worse because they overvalue defense (they removed brutality from shatter totem druid which were used by top ladder there !!!)

[robust junco]

How does she make the orb stationary?

I don't see it

[thorn fossil]

at :26 you can see it moving very slowly

[robust junco]

Yeah, but I don't see anything that's supposed to slow it down

But I see a lot of travel speed

Like this

Oh wait

I misread the idol

It's reduced speed on idols

Not inc speed

Don't mind me then

[inland robin]

Are unstable core rare like red rings?

[harsh abyss]

Yeah, one of the rarest chests

[sour basalt]

Yeah

[nimble shoal]

Well, nowhere near as rare as red ring, but rare

[harsh abyss]

Probably the rarest random drop chestpiece that people farm for

[unborn hamlet]

dropping a core is not too hard, getting good rolls with multi LP is a different problem 😂

[glad marten]

Yeah, I see unstable core as not that rare

I can probably get >20 unstable cores for every single red ring

[inland robin]

Unstable core I should look for the damage increase and mana?

[strange needle]

Overall yeah the 2 values closer to max the better ,

[inland robin]

Ok ty

[vivid wolf]

OK so I think i figured out one of my crafting issues

[proven haven]

A 1LP+ RR is 61.72x rarer than a 1LP+ Unstable core 👍

[vivid wolf]

May I ask you a question?

I've been learning sort of on my own with some guidance on how to farm specific BIS slots for the "standard" style of lightning blast, take the spoon for example - learning how to force runic prisons to spawn using a weaver node and the passive that spawns omen chains then resetting the monolith and running a few nodes to spawn a bunch of echo chains that also tether out to rune prison nodes (or other weaver slotted/cemetaries) - all that I understand now for like... that item. How to really juice that farm.

Is there a way to really target farm unstable cores that you find more effecitent, or it it just like a basic boring "get unique prophecies, do things in that monolith with the unique armor, the end"

Is there a good weaver node, for example, to slot a 0, or 1 lp unstable core?

[proven haven]

not really, just numbers

[vivid wolf]

Then I have the same question about every other slot - it'd be neat if as part of that specific guide it went over each individual unique item and recommended specific methods for like... if you want to farm the primordial ring, do this with your rift beast to get the resources to buy the ring, but then, don't evolve it, and instead, use these echoes from the weaver guild to spawn a ton of them and farm that specific bosses materials to buy more rings

[strange needle]

@vivid wolf the only way to farm better unstable core is through imprints but maybe the nerf they did to red ring affects it ,for sure titan hearth is not affected and I get a million of those that I throw to turtle

Prophecies net you 1 lps but man 2 lps are so damm hard and rare to get overall,I ll get way more 3 lp titans before one 2 lp unstable

Imprint node the chest one , barnacle plus unclaimed troves

[inland robin]

Ur name looks familiar. Aren't you the YouTuber making helpful videos?!

[strange needle]

In the flesh thats your guy

[proven haven]

Generally global drop uniques are all the same. Commons work better with imprints, but there is also a high value to big roll range uniques (like unstable) since prophecies have no roll range targeting

Beasts I just been spamming beast echo chains

[inland robin]

The best rotation to have enough memory ambers to spam?

I found a few cores but all low mana

The damage is good though

[strange needle]

You need folly woven paired with unclaimed troves or maybe temples this almost sustain amber paired with the amber nodes in the weaver tree ,buy amber bags from skarven the merchant that sell primordials items,if you ever find someone to play with you during this grind and he does same thing so you guys alternate you will have infinite amber and infite echoes to spam grind

[vivid wolf]

Ah barnacle and unclaimed? Are those the name of the two imprint weaver nodes?

[strange needle]

No those are the names of the woven echoes ,the imprint one is echoing riches and the one down left that procs when you finish echoes and claim rewards

[vivid wolf]

I don’t know how barnacle and unclsimed riches help farm unstable core? I need to read those echoes again…

[strange needle]

They help by you getting one and then imprinting that armor in those places to get you much more imprinted items uniques are much better than prophecies cause they get extra rerolls depending lp so its easier to get more lp overall and well to conserve the rolls on imprinted unique

The weaver tree is extremely powerful so its worth learning all the shenanigans you can do with it

For me far better than the cof tree, double bonus to lp is what cof is doing for the most part

[thorn fossil]

it can also get you a bunch of extra exiled mages in your echos for that spoon grind

top left corner of weaver tree

[strange needle]

Specially now since they fixed it

[inland robin]

I can't wait to go home and try

Barnacle and unclaimed

I never do those

I actually converted alot away

Now I making lightning blast mage so it's helpful, ty

[strange needle]

Btw barnacle its basically free you get it by killing loot lizards so I would never buy that ,it has good value for imprints sake

I also dont convert barnacle to other random woven since its solid

[vivid wolf]

Any info on farming LP 3 foot of the mountain? About how many dungeons on avg at t4?

[harsh abyss]

I'd suggest going for the weaver points that add the dungeon mobs to your monos. You'll get 2-3 LP versions pretty regularly it feels.

[left hill]

can also use Portal Charms whenever you have a bunch built up, just run dungeon with those however many times. but yeah, the weaver tree node is really helpful for dungeon boss uniques

[uncut stag]

sap bros

how much cost the velocyns jaw dagger

[proven haven]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/primordial-unique

[uncut stag]

its tradeable ?

[hybrid girder]

recently did the grind. about 30 dungeons +-10 depending on rng

[hybrid girder]

true, but if you want it rolled good (>+10 all attributes) takes a little work. but it feels like an easy one to roll and slam compared to other slots

[vivid wolf]

Can you slam an LP 3 and reroll the stats on the legendary by sacrificing other legendaries to it?

Or do you have to reroll stats before you slam using another 3 LP boot?

[unborn hamlet]

getting 3LP foot in 30 dungeons is lucky as all hell

dont listen to the lottery winners 😂

also reroll with ´2LP random slams + corruption

i keep all failed slams for rerolling

and if i need more i just make fodder

u can reroll 2LP item with 1LP item + stat corruption

3LP with 2LP + stat corruption

4LP with 3LP + stat corruption

[polar crane]

why you using vilatria set for a fire RM dude 😅 😅 😅 😅

[unborn hamlet]

i assume its because there is no other set helmet to proc legends entwined

+1 skill point and +5all stats

[nimble shoal]

There is the rogue one that isn't class locked for some reason, which could grant blind on hit lol

[unborn hamlet]

is it a 2set?

but well generally, high int stacking grants tons of schock chance from vilatra that acts as a form of CC so

[nimble shoal]

Yeah, and though blind isn't too bad, the Vilatria stuff is probably still better even off-type

[inland robin]

Are there such nodes?

[strange needle]

Yes at the bottom very good to get dungeon gear without actually doing dungeons and if I am not mistaken since they drop in maps they get the corruption scaling benefit but maybe they dont since they are dungeon gear.

[inland robin]

I grinded like hell at light arbor

At didn't get a good one lol

[strange needle]

Get this its op lots of great lp and lots of drops by mapping

I did a ton of farming last league and got a lot 3 lps of the gear they drop the mobs,they are harder and the golem specially can be tricky but worth it

I ll never farm lighless unless there is a better way to farm it in the future ,its too long for an ez boss maybe if you could use multiple keys to multiply the rewards it would feel rewarding

[inland robin]

Tyty imma try later

Looking for a 3lp foot

[inland robin]

I was playing lightning blast mage and when I use uhkeiros, I lose HP without gaining. Is it normal?

[hybrid girder]

true, this is with turtling all the lp1+2

[hybrid girder]

yeah you can reroll legendary in gauntlet. reroll hits implicits, unique affixes and legendary affixes

[unborn hamlet]

yea just keep in mind once u corrupt it u cant reroll it

[whole jackal]

Because it's still 115 Flat spell damage, +1 all skills and +5 all attributes.

The vilatria set effect is so strong that you can also use it for other elemental spell types. If I remember correctly frozen sentinel outlined that also in one of his recent videos.

Especially when you play with firestarter torch you miss out on a lot of flat spell damage

[wispy lichen]

is fire aura stacker worth doing?

[robust junco]

It's good yeah

[vivid wolf]

Yeah ran like 50 lightless and came out with a handful of 2LP, 0 3 LP, rerolled all my 1 LP no luck - Not sure how to go about getting 3 LP foot of the mountain beyond continuing to farm lightless, or just cotinuing to run with the weaver node that drops dungeon boss loot from time to time.

[unborn hamlet]

-> some lightless, some weaver-> keep all drops even 0LP, reroll all to +12 all (my build needs it), cycle turtle , cycle nemesis, keep nemesis bricks for future rerolling, keep rolling

took me , give or less, 3 or so stash pages of 1-2LPs to get 3LP in turtle, and i consider that still pretty lucky

slammed, missed slam i needed, corruption didnt save them either

unlucky,

[vivid wolf]

Ok thank you that makes me feel better

I just hit some good nemesis items I'm excited!

I need advice though...

[vivid wolf]

Oofda hit T7/T7/T6 gloves - but had terrible RNG with the Forging Potential

[polar crane]

well,in that case I'd like a end game planner for that build please 😙 😙 😙 😙

[vivid wolf]

Hit my heart slam:

1st 2 LP heart this season... what are the uh...corruption odds again? POE 2 coming out Friday...do...do I just...brick it immediately?

[nimble shoal]

75% chance for a "positive" outcome, what could go wrong?

[cosmic dove]

I found a 2LP twisted early on and ... quit the season before I did anything with it
I'd go for it but don't @ me if you brick it 😛

[vivid wolf]

lol I just bricked a double lightning damage idol scared me off haha

[strange needle]

I would have a back up then corrupt you may not see it again in this league

[whole jackal]

just use an INT SW, and INT/ATT exulis

and an idol altar with 2% boss damage needles

scales of eterra helps tremendously with capping resists

and your necrotic/poison resist are fine too due to attribute scaling

basically just void and physical resist is left to solve

[glossy abyss]

Advice on what to slam on lament of the lost refuge for void volcanic orb build? Im thinking crit multi and melee void damage?

[inland robin]

Hw do u brick an idol

[whole jackal]

[vivid wolf]

It had lightning damage w/ aegis & lightning damage w/ 300+ mana and it rolled t6 flat damage - was about a 5-10% overall sheet DPS upgrade, then I corrupted it and it literally broke/shattered it, so it can't be equipped anymore

[hybrid girder]

not melee void, volcanic orb doesn't have a melee tag. 2nd affix priority shred, void pen, inc void damage

[glossy abyss]

But spellblade passive gives spell damage for melee damage on weapon

[vivid wolf]

I will say - both the Aegis & Damage over 300 mana rolls were close to minimum rolled, however, so not a huge loss. Hard to find good idols with COF so far though - I think I need to spend a ton on idol prophecies OH THAT REMINDS me I just found an awesome altar I need to go equip that and see... t7 suffix and t5 suffix+prefix I think...

[hybrid girder]

flat is good but still far behind shred and pen for damage. shred works for all damage too. i'd take melee damage as the 3rd priority slot if it helps scale it. in my spellblade build (flame reave) it is beaten out by inc fire tho. could be close to increased void though in your case

and since volcanic scales at 1x and you have a bunch of flat void from the weapon implicit already, pen and shred will most likely out perform by a lot.

[glossy abyss]

I'll try that route then. I have 3lp lament that's been collecting dust for a good year

[nimble shoal]

Even just inc void might do well

Pen struggles to beat most things

[proven haven]

Could go for attack speed, melee void damage and pen.

If using the void body with fire auras passively with fire brand you can get 2000%+ increased damage for free

[glossy abyss]

I am using that chest. I didnt even think about melee attack speed

[hybrid girder]

is melee attack speed the same as cast speed for vocalnic orb in this build?

[proven haven]

Well not directly. Its cooldown limited. But you do get benefit from attack speed in more auras, more ward, more etc.

[glossy abyss]

@proven haven Does explosive ground do the bulk of the damage in orb setups?

[proven haven]

Iirc usually. I havent used VO much but yea. Its generating most of the individual hits

[glossy abyss]

What about orbiting VO? Bait?

[robust junco]

Careful their duration is bugged

[glossy abyss]

volcanic orb?

[strange needle]

Vlad posted a video here its bugged nicely 🤣

[robust junco]

Yup

[glossy abyss]

Is it bugged with the orbit set or just bugged in general?

[robust junco]

I tried the orbit only

The 1st orb in each zone is like twice as long as others

So idk if its the first one that's longer or the rest that are shorter

[glossy abyss]

I'll play around with that after work. I feel like eye of orexia is bait for this build

[glad marten]

Fiiiiinally

[robust junco]

[glad marten]

absolutely not

[robust junco]

https://tenor.com/view/im-afraid-thats-what-the-law-requires-pip-torrens-tommy-lascelles-the-crown-the-law-gif-16125308

[glad marten]

I will not be baited into destroying the best item I have

well, second best

[glossy abyss]

i wonder if it has something to do with keplahan set. says 30% increased duration if your last orb is a different element than the last. maybe its doing something weird with the first one because of that?

[robust junco]

I was full Void VO

[glossy abyss]

shouldn't, but im wondering if thats not whats bugged about it. taking the ring off my first orb has the same duration as the next few

lament overrides the fire or cold orb from the set, but i wonder if its still counting them as different for the increased duration

[vivid wolf]

Found an Orion's Eye - looks cool, but not sure how I'd use it...juist thought it was neat first time finding one.

[hybrid girder]

time for a mana stacking build obvi 😄

[vivid wolf]

I think I'm going to try farming my foot of the mountain boots - I had 6 LP 2 boots and every single one I selected movement speed but none of them hit intellect, every pair hit a suffix, I had two good ones but they both corrupted horrifically

[vivid wolf]

It was nearly max rolled on all variables which was cool

Sadly, my nemesis friends spit it back out at me with no LP

[hybrid girder]

sadness

currently puzzling over how to get more damage out of spellblade

[hybrid girder]

fn healing effectiveness ftw

[vivid wolf]

right? Like...everytime i swear - I guess the less fire damage roll is low that's probably the more important one

I read it wrong initially but I understand the ranges now, the negative ranges threw me for a second, the implicit is crap too it goes up to 20%... I see now

oh well crap on crap lol

My favorite pair of boots:

Dropped as 0 LP - combined a bunch, hit almost perfect rolls, took it to nemesis, hit LP 2, took it to slam, missed my slam, corrupted and prayed, turned it back into an LP0 lmao

Literally ran it from crap to promise and back to crap again

I have about 3 tabs of these boots about to combine them all to hit 12 attributes and then reroll LP on all of them with turtle and pray for a T3

LP3*

[vivid wolf]

I've done sorc and runemaster but never spellblade, there are some strong builds out there though

[hybrid girder]

ive reached the top of the corruption ladder and it def pumps but its a glass cannon and need to move closer to a 1 shot to get beyond 4500c orobyss

considering going infinite loop sorc

[vivid wolf]

Damn 4500c

Frost Wall -> Frost Floor:

[hybrid girder]

thats awesome lol

[hybrid girder]

@cloud dew noob q, why are veterans boots good/interesting in builds?

[cloud dew]

they're not lmfao

they're just hard mode
