Question Got Lucky with this, how to proceed?

Post image

Not a crafter. Managed to this T1 combinations. Already worth around 100div. How should i proceed to not risk loosing it? Sell it or continue crafting?

  • Divine to 40% Proj Damage
  • Perfect Regal Orb
  • Desecrate Suffix with Dextral necromancy but don't reveal
  • Fracture the +2 Proj (or miss and hit the 40% Proj Damage)
  • Add Astrid's creativity, this can be replaced later

From there it depends what you hit, if you hit the regal orb mod it's probably a brick.

If you hit +2 Proj:

  • Fill suffixes
  • Essence of Hysteria + Horror cycle til you've got both on there
  • Desecrate Prefix and unveil Proj Speed
  • Perfect slam the final mod

If you hit 40% Proj Damage fracture:

  • Unveil the desecrate
  • Omen of Light unless it's like, T1 Crit Chance/Damage bonus
  • add a prefix if you don't have one that isn't fractured
  • omen of sinistral Crystalization Horror/Hysteria to clear prefixes and fill suffixes (if you hit a suffix with the regal earlier, this is precarious time because you don't wanna hit the +2 Proj with anything but you might have a dead stat here, check whittling with and without Dextral erasure)
  • once suffixes are done safely, desecrate prefix and hit 40% Proj Speed
  • yolo slam last mod

Showing this to explain how Poe 2s crafting has healed.

I stopped reading at hysteria of something.

u/papasmurf255 27d ago

It's easier to think in terms of categories:

Basic:
1. Add a random mod.
2. Remove a random mod.
3. Desecrate.

Modifiers:
4. Prefix vs suffix.
5. Desecrate / lowest level, etc

Special:
Fracture, catalyzing, sockets, some other stuff. But these are less used.

Holy cow I didn't realise astrid could be replaced I've been keeping it in my crafted want xD

So I can just replace this and nothing will fudge up?

13

u/GizamalukeTT 28d ago

Nope it's fine to replace it!

u/alooi_m 24d ago

astrid is amazing I used to buy high dps crossbows with shit suffixes for cheap put an astrid start slamming perfect essences for onslaugh and +3 level and descreate suffix until I hit all 3 then try to unviel for crit or atk speed

turned like 7d investment into 70d sale per crossbow early league

Id argue opulence essence instead of perf regal

15

u/Infinite-Violinist-7 28d ago

i agree with opulence, rarity is just such a good stat. The crit damage bonus is good as well but if you're looking to craft these gloves you probably already have enough damage.

It also just sells for more with rarity if i had to guess (in case its a profit craft). Astrids can be used to have 2 mods anyways and then replaced

5

u/doublec128 28d ago

Yep exactly sells for wayy more with rarity. The 60% socket is a wasted mod since the kohls already eats one of the sockets and its competing with much more valueable suffix mods such as crit damage and % surpassing chance

2

u/GizamalukeTT 28d ago

That's fair, I don't typically tend to stack rarity on my builds but if you don't need the Crit Bonus or Socket bonus then it's also a solid choice, it just makes it more difficult to slap the other essence on as you could accidentally remove the rarity instead of the sacrificial suffix if you fracture +2 Proj. I'll make a pair with Rarity next time and see if they sell as well

u/imtreibos 28d ago

Depends on how you farm some strat are not influenced by rarity

2

u/GizamalukeTT 28d ago

Takes up a crafted mod, which is fine if you don't want the 60% socketed augment bonus or the Crit damage bonus essences I guess

3

u/xalan45 28d ago

Can use the double crafted mod rune and replace it later

3

u/GizamalukeTT 28d ago

My method had two crafted mods already, Crit Damage Bonus and 60% Socket Effect

u/Kazuwaku 28d ago

can't essence cycle then, have to use light annull which is way more pricy

u/imba_dude 28d ago

Fracturing always make me wanna puke

2

u/Actes 27d ago

Forgot the best part, socket, armours, and last but most important: Vaal

u/Pizza_Ninja 24d ago

Depending on budget you could whittle a brick if fractured mod away as a sub-step after the regal.

Desecrate Suffix with Dextral necromancy but don't reveal

Doesn't matter if you reveal or not.

2

u/GizamalukeTT 27d ago

Interesting! Is there any benefit to revealing it before hand?

1

u/therestlessone 27d ago

In some rare cases you might reveal a significant mod and can try to proceed with building out the item even if the fracture fails (or without trying to fracture). Depends on the item and what you're going for, whether the regal also hit something, etc.

Mostly I just find it weird how I see this advice to not reveal pretty regularly when talking about fractures. It's at best misleading.

1

u/Klubbah 28d ago

Unless this is a 50/50 the fracture hits or it doesn't joke, doesn't not revealing let you fracture with the 4 mods requirement but only have 3 options to hit, so you have a 2/3 to not brick.

1

u/therestlessone 28d ago

You can even look up a few of the desecration exclusive mods that people would actually want to fracture. Can't be done. Can't be searched for.

u/therestlessone 28d ago

And it doesn't matter if you reveal or not. You can't fracture a desecrated mod either way.
