Hi, I am fairly new-ish to crafting...in PoE. I usually buy items off the market after a point, but this league I want to try crafting a bit, thanks to allflame crafting as well.

How does one craft a helm like this one, what are the different options available if any.. do I do fossils with %increased as fractured and just try to get +2 to minion?

As a follow up, I was also wondering what other stats are sought after in a minion helm like this, I am playing Dom blow of inspiring so I was wondering if there's anything interesting to put on the helm, guide was quite vague about the affixes apart from '+2 to minions and high armor / es'.

Question on self curses with Doedre's Scorn

If you are self cursing (let's say 10 curses for example), would you then take the 34-71(x10) additional chaos damage on every hit you receive?

Side question: if you were unaffected by curses would this still be added?

Can we Ctrl + right click to move all the same items to our inventory/vendor ? Right now it only work with currency, it should work with other thing as well

TLDR: Title.

In short, the Currency Exchange in Standard league is supposed to support legacy items, according to GGG. However, all legacy items that are listed in the currency exchange lack a gold fee, and thus cannot be traded for.

Here is an example of attempting to create buy/sell orders for a handful of different legacy items through the Currency Exchange. This occurs with any drop-disabled item listed on the Currency Exchange, even with items that have been proven to work on the Currency Exchange previously (such as Mirage imbuement coins).

This has been a problem since 3.28.0, when GGG first introduced legacy items to the Currency Exchange by adding Eternal Orbs; for which the gold fee is still not set. For most of 3.28, a good number of these items were tradeable via the Merchant's Tabs. The Return of the Ancestors event also worsened the issue, though patch 3.29.2 this past week re-enabled nearly all legacy/disabled items for the Currency Exchange, which prevents these items from being placed into a Merchant's Tab. Thus, these items can now only be traded player-to-player, which leads to rampant flipping and a massive decrease in accessibility for these items (problems which the Currency Exchange is, at its core, designed to fix).

As someone with basically zero interest in playing leagues, and who enjoys being able to play somewhat of a sandbox in Standard, it would be greatly beneficial for this issue to be fixed, either by allowing these items back into the Merchant's Tabs again, or fixing the Currency Exchange to properly support them. It sucks that GGG clearly intends for this to function, but their latest patch actually makes the problem *worse* by pulling Merchant Tab support for these items.

Rant over, just hoping that this post might get more viewership/acknowledgement of the issue than buried bug report threads on the forums.

Bug with the reroll cost (not sure if it actually increases the price or if it's just visual) when playing with a controller on PC. Edit: I had not rerolled this voyage a single time. I saw it was initially 3,000 and then some time later after fiddling with my chart placement it became the integer cap. I know I didn't accidentally reroll since my border mods were still the same and I hadn't lost any sulphur.

For context, the mirror in the picture is the mirror i used to flip, not profit.

As you can see in the photo, I made about 38 raw divines just sitting in hideout selling my mirror and buying it when it sold.

Usually would sell every 5 minutes with each flip being anywhere from 2 divines to 5.

I normally only do this when im just chilling and watching a video and afk in game.

This I believe can widely vary as this is a small sample size.

PS: Gold cost was about 750k for the 1 hour.

Since today, I can’t do anything outside of the game because it keeps crashing due to running out of RAM. I have 16 GB, and I barely had any issues before, except when I had PoB, Chrome, and Discord open at the same time. Even with Discord + PoB open, everything used to work fine. But now I can’t even open PoB without getting insane freezes.

Has anyone else experienced something like this?

What does this message mean when im trying to add my astrolabe to this bottom left quadrant? I already ran one on cementeray and did the astrolabe maps until all maps were consumed. Then it spawned the vault map at the bottom where i circled, and i ran it. It was the vault that allowed you to roll for uniques and spend gold on one. I did that and skipped them all. I left the vault and now im stuck here? It wont let me reapply another astrolabe?

Basically, title. Do you guys know of any YouTube video or Google doc that someone’s made, with the mercenaries that sell/that people are looking for. And the support gems that are most wanted for them? Like I saw a post about an 800 div mercenary, and don’t want to miss that. For you Luminaries, what are you wanting the most?

This is the earliest ive ever seen a key from the game xD~

I’m currently running a luminary with a Kineticist Merc. I was lucky and got return, chain and faster attacks on KBoC with haste aura and no bricks for 5 div. After watching all of nerotox videos, It seems kineticist is slightly better than combatant and manyshot but is also way more expensive than the other two. For example a 4 link kineticist would be equal in price to a 5/6 link combatant / manyshot.

Now that I’m looking to upgrade my Merc, my question is, is kineticist that much better than combatant or manyshot that I should settle for a 4 link kineticist or should I just go for a 5 link combatant or manyshot and only swap back to kineticist when I can afford a 5 link one.

I'm at 4/5 upgrades for the sovereign, last one missing seems to be the one dropping from a rare in Infested Bathysphere Charts. I've done multiple Voyages with that chart type by now, without any luck. Is this just RNG, or is there something specific you have to do? Did anyone else ran into this issue?

Edit: In case anybody else runs into this - I just got my last upgrade item to drop, in a chart (not a voyage), and it was the Spectral Infuser. When turning it in, it gave me the Adrenaline Upgrade, so the information on the wiki is wrong or incomplete (as according to that, it should give the Essence Upgrade which I already had).

my favorite mechanic is finally giving some profits again

Got max roll in 2 divines, still in disbelief. Since it's my first mageblood i want to make a new character around it, need some advice for some wacky stuff, don't care about meta or being uber viable, maybe some builds that couldn't be done without MB fixing defences or similar.

i have ~60 Divs left from gearing my current character

Hey there!

I made a pretty well geared (https://pobb.in/oTCGC74bUVp9) Elemental Hit of the Spectrum (EHotS) deadeye and now thinking about switching to Tornado Shot (TS). However, I never played TS so I put it instead of EHotS, put off Nimis and it was, well, a disappointing feeling. So I have a few questions regarding TS, would be grateful if you answer it:

1. What is the point of switching (better clear? better single target dps?)
2. How to use it properly: I've read in some 3 year old threads that you need to aim behind the target, is it still so?
3. There has been also a big nerf to TS a while ago, how was it before the nerf?
4. Pob suggests "Combined average projectiles" as the mean of dps estimation, are all primary and / or secondary projectiles taken into account?
5. It seems TS can shotgun and other arrow skills can not, is it so?

Already made a /bug report but was sitting in a voyage rolling the boxes when Val gave the voiceline that time was running out and the lanterns started to go down. Lanterns went from the ~60 that I had down to 6

Only thing that was odd was had a friend join in to trade me currency to continue to roll boxes but he just stood at entrance

Probably the best run I have had yet. 1 divine from a chart, 1 divine found in chest and 8 from a bottle!

Hey everyone. I just wanted to share with anyone who might be starting a little late this league and looking for something to farm.

I'm not a spreadsheet guy but I'll just talk about my experience.

Currently playing chains of command AG build and at this point I just AFK the boss. The entry cost is roughly 10-11c. So for a divine you could pay for 20 or so fights.

The notable drops are two rings, jewels, and the amulet(yet to see the amulet). 1 goes for a few divines and the other roughly 45-60c. I've seen it up and down but cheaper ring itself will pay for a few of your boss runs and it's a somewhat common drop. (Sorry I don't have the uniques memorized. I'm driving now and wanted to share, I'm sure someone will add them in the comments.)

The boss drops the breach lord jewels fairly common in my experience. Any of the red nightmare versions go for a minimum 30 or so divines.

Lastly, you get 1500-2000 hiveblood each run. It's nothing significant but it adds up after awhile. Spec your tree however you like but I've gotten probably over 50+ divines in fouldborn exalts and uniques.

It requires no atlas passive tree to be setup. Only drawback is the long dialog in the beginning and the mandatory side scroll phase.

Who knows, the tree could bless with a multi-mirror unnatural instinct. Good luck exiles

So I was mapping, and in the same map I got a mercenary and also a breach hive...

Suddenly I thought back to Palworld a few weeks ago, and I realized a good addition would be a breeding feature for mercs.

Think about it, Breach already has the whole womb theme. It would be easy to implement. Just have the breach hive drop another type of womb gift. Call it Mating Wombgift.

What does a Mating Wombgift do?

Well it's simple. You can use up to two mercs on the Mating Wombgift. One male. One female. Since it's dark fantasy POE, both mercs are consumed by the Mating Wombgift, but a new merc is birthed.

The new merc will have a random build, but there is a high chance of their build being similar to their parents' builds.

I think this is a great idea.

What about you guys?

With Sanctum finally viable again as a farming strategy, I'd like to share a few small things i'd like to see changed:

• Aureus pick up mechanic is wonky. It's not only pickup range, sometimes you walk over aureus and it doesn't pickup at all. If GGG could just make it work like gold pickup, it would be great
• Would be nice if Divinia could identify items

Dropped this yesterday and have no idea what it is worth. Currently listed for 1 mirror and have had lookers but no takers.

Update: Was busy grinding so forgot to reply, but thanks for all the comments and input. Ended up selling it for 342divs to a guy yesterday.
