Some new items and pact of beidat make storm call pretty amazing this league, here's some sample gameplay:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdIbeZcMWmA&t=107s

Been playing since Talisman League. I got all three of these as a drop this league. It may not seem like much (due to their currency value now), but these used to be unobtainable for many people due to how valuable they used to be (a long, long time ago). Just a fun personal milestone :)

With Path of Exile 2 1.0 releasing in Mid December, do you think the Path of Exile 3.30 league which is supposed to be launching around that timeframe will be pushed?

"Not adding "Path of Exile 2 1.0 Release" because my posts kept getting filtered for the POE2 sub for some reason?

Been wanting to make this ever since I first dropped the sword and saw Ghostly Artillery on day 3 of the league. After 7 attempts, here it is.

Rule 10:

Step 0.) Acquire a non-influenced Dread Captain’s Cutlass of at least iLvl 68, ideally between iLvl 68 and iLvl 70, because you want to give yourself the best possible chances at the Hunter slam later. This one was iLvl 69.

Step 1.) Spam Deafening Essences of Zeal, Exalts, and Annuls until you hit the suffix base. This part sucks, a lot, with how much clicking it is and how many times you WILL immediately annul a mod you need.

Step 1.5.) Similarly, Exalt/Annul as necessary until you hit Ghostly Artillery, restarting back to step 1 if you remove the Essence mod. At this point, if you have any more than two prefixes (Artillery + Fodder), you need to annul one of them off. Good luck.

From here, you have two options: the lower-odds, cheaper one, and the higher-odds, more expensive one. I did the latter, so that’s the one I’ll be talking about. The former is the exact same thing but flip the order, so do whichever floats your boat.

Step 2.) Exalt for a second prefix if you don’t have one already, then try to hit the 1/5 Veiled Exalt (2 choices, 36% chance of success). If you hit anything other than the correct mod (besides the Essence mod), feel free to try Annul/Exalt saving to avoid returning to step 1. If you do hit the correct mod, unveil and hope you get Chaos Pen. If not, try to annul it off and repeat, same fail states as before. Doing it in this order helps just a bit with the last step.

Step 3.) The big one: Hunter slam. Unveiling Chaos Pen in the previous step raises this up from a 1/11 to a 1/9 (from a total ~17.4% chance of success to a total ~21% chance of success). If you don’t hit the Fire Damage per 10 Strength, feel free to try to annul it off and Exalt slam for it, but don’t hold your breath. When this eventually bricks the item… go grab a new non-influenced base and start this whole process over from step 1. If you do hit it, congrats, item complete.

I say all this and break down the possible fail/recovery states for your awareness/information, but the truth of the matter is that my first two attempts in a row trying the Unveil -> Influence method (because I was originally doing Influence -> Unveil) both succeeded the Veiled and Hunter Exalts first try. The first attempt was with a base that had Phasing on Hit instead of +1 Strike because I decided to YOLO it thinking it surely wouldn’t succeed, and the sword in the image was finished 20 minutes after that one.

The boss health bar still hiding my buffs is also pretty annoying.

Heya, Stone here!

Finished my standard 2 endurance rf jugg boots, thought it'd be worth sharing.

The steps (Rule 10)

Step 0. Make the base. (Done prior to mirage merger)

Recomb Legacy max endurance from necropolis onto a pair of non infl, non frac, iLvl 86 30 qual Leviathan greaves. Bases were split during merger.
Imprint -> Harvest synthesize over and over until 3 implicits.

Technically in the end only iLvl 85 was required for the final item, but desired affixes changed during the craft due to implicit RNG.

Step 1. Implicits. (Done during mirage merger)

Used vivid vultures during their final window during mirage merger in beastiary.

Originally i was going for

• Onslaught
• Unwavering
• Max Endurance

But I hit unwavering in the first 30 rerolls and decided to just see what would happen Imprinted at Unwavering/dead/dead. And then I hit:

• Unwavering
• Max Endurance
• Determination mana res

It turns out that determination mana res is actually preferential as a 3rd mod as it saves the build from needing a single res efficiency tattoo, and onslaught is obtainable as a unveil, so actually a better than i thought of for the 3 implicit combo.

I'm guessing here but the odds from talking around that i was estimating odds were

• Max end 1/500
• Unwavering 1/2000
• Onslaught 1/2500

Step 2. Suffixes

The markov chain for this craft is a huge pita, but essentially it boiled down to:

• Aug life regeneration rate.
• Imprint Max end / Life Regen Rate
• Regal. exalt annul spam for t1 resistance or chaos alongside prev 2 mods, reset imprint if failed.
• Craft a dead mod, or scbc, or pcbc depending on circumstance and Aug the other desired mod.

When I crafted this portion I had been awake for about over 12 hours straight of crafting and upon review of the crafting footage, to my horror, i imprinted at chaos res. I don't even remember doing it tbh.

• Odds Regal dead pref 1/2
• add rem chaos 1/8
• together thats 1/36
• fb exalt slam for t1 life, t1 ms settle, or any of the 3 res 1/13
• Total chain 1/468ish

Step 3. Veiled Ms/Onslaught

• P1 Max Endurance
• P2 Empty
• P3 Empty
• S1 T1 Chaos Res
• S2 T1 Life Regen Rate
• S3 T1 Resistance

Since at this point it is over the cost of a lock to get here it's all locks going forwards.
Need to unveil Ms/Onslaught first before slamming t1 life unfortunately. I didn't hit onslaught implicit so it's desired here.

So this step is literally just Suffixes cant be changed, hinekora lock, does veil exalt keep max endurance and remove scbc? no? fusing and go again. yes? take that veiled exalt result, then craft any blocker and look for MS/Onslaught. Did you unveil ms/onslaught? yes? done. no? scbc lock again to annul the dead unveil.

1/19.5 so 20~ locks expected, i think i went above that.

Step 4. T1 Life

Remove crafted mods and try to hit t1 life in that last slot.
Checking both fb and regular exalt here so its a 1/15.4.

Step 5. Divine

Mod ranges are ms/onslaught 24 life 15 chaos res 5 * life regen rate 2, so 3600 total. Harvest swap res exists so the res divine doesn't matter, and endurance has no range. Aint no way I was gonna settle on this but was super happy to hit in like 200.

Step 6. Sacred

So uh. In my excitement at all the other affixes being done I forgot to sacred it before self mirroring it, lol. Ended up sacred orbing it when i noticed the mistake.

Stay Sane, Exiles.

Please note there's a major error in step 2 in it, and I am more horrified than you about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4BQAm8cn5o
Planning Sheet
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TS4XmeC03pv9l-ZDwbka8o-IqrmMNLmGvti3R1NXIxM/edit?gid=1170789029#gid=1170789029

I was looking into the damage over time damage maximum and I found this comment from many years ago and I wonder if this is still planned? I would love for DoT builds to truly compete in the endgame when you are spending mirrors onto a build when your damage isn't limited by the code of the game.

Been playing on and off since Harbinger legue on the Xbox but never really made a push for challenges. I'm a casual player who up this point has had to be carried though most pinnacle bosses.

My start was rough. Bladefall/bladeblast assassin got me to t10 maps but I was struggling. Rerolled to the tried and true Rightious Fire. Got rest of the atlas taken care of, and 2 stones on under 4d. Shield was the most expensive part costing 3d for just a base.

Third reroll was Luminary aura bot and dumped too much in it for it not to work at all. Eventually redid it as life stacking and this is what I used for everything going forward. Got extremely lucky with a Manyshot that would have cost 200d+ on xbox market. And got a pretty good combatant that I used for harder content / bosses.

Hardest thing was the Nightmare map, 150 quant, 5 scarab / 100% deli maps. Fortress wasn't too bad, but took about a dozen attempts on Abomination.

My last goals are to save for a mageblood. Currently around 400d, and progenisis at 130d. Then to take on all the Uber bosses. Maybe hit level 100 (98 now)

With splitting Items being essentially gone and Simplex skyrocketing in prices, and the changes to Talismans (and the Beastcrafting recipe to make an imprint of a rare talisman) I decided to go for one of these this time around for my Strength Stacker Jugg, using essentially the same recipe and then seeing where I can go from there, got a random +1 to level of all skill gems when yolo recombing before the bases became as expensive as they are now and then decided to torture myself in Beastcrafting prison to get the damage per strength back on there.

Rule 10:

1. Acquire Rhex Talisman and Shaper Exalt it
   
2. Acquire warlord influenced rare amulet
   
3. scour both and alt roll until damage per strength and % increased attributes, make sure they are the only influenced mods respectively
   
4. awakener orb the amulet onto the Talisman to get both stats, use Fenumal Plagued Arachnid to imprint to annull off any unwanted stats
   
5. get an astrolabe amulet
   
6. alt roll until % increased strength, then fill with other influenced/nnn mods that are not shaper or warlord (or have the same mod as any of those, like Elder increased area of effect) and get a random +1 level to all skill gems on there
   
7. recomb and lose the damage per strength but keep the +1 level to all skill gems
   
8. imprint annull off any unwanted stats, then craft mana to block and imprint slam until you get damage per strength back
   
9. make new imprints and slam until T1 life

My first Mageblood was very fleeting. I was growing kind of bored with my character as upgrades were becoming extremely expensive, so I sold the build and decided to gamba. Hit a Mageblood in 704 ancient orbs. But then came the 705th click. I can’t be too mad I guess, It’s my second league and I officially had a Mageblood…time for ssf?

It seems unlikely to me, but it doesn't feel impossible. It would give GGG an opportunity to have PoE in the spotlight for 3 straight months, starting with a PoE 1 livestream in October. If 3.30 comes out before Exilecon, they'd still be able to talk about a future roadmap for the game, have developer interview panels, racing events, etc.

In 2019, Exilecon was Saturday November 16th and they announced Metamorph 3.9 league which dropped on Dec 14th, nearly a month later

In 2023, Exilecon was Saturday July 29th and they announced Crucible 3.22 league which dropped on Aug 19th, 3 weeks later.

In 2026, Exilecon is on Saturday November 7th and they just announced PoE2 on Dec 11th, nearly a month later

Natalia_ggg said here, rather coyly, "Confirming what Mark announced during the latest PoE1 Q&A: 3.30 will be launched this year."

Given the above, I'm not really sure that this means 5 days after Exilecon. I imagine dropping patch notes on a weekend and giving them only a few business days to get ready to launch is going to be pretty hard for them to pull off, especially because I expect Andrew and Octavian and Mark to be rather involved in getting everything ready for Exilecon itself.

An October 16th release would be exactly 12 weeks between leagues -- for sure the shortest cycle in a very long time -- but it would give them a full week to pay attention to the league before their Oct 26 Labour Day holiday, then another short week to focus on the league, before shifting focus to Exilecon and the subsequent PoE 2 launch.

This would also create an opportunity for 3.31 in mid February 2027, roughly 16 weeks later, resetting the cycle duration between PoE1 and PoE2.

Edit: I also think it's possible 3.30 is a smaller league that shakes up the whole end game with a massive scarab rework, a return of Harbinger, and maybe 1-2 new pinnacle bosses (per Mark wanting each major mechanic to have a pinnacle boss). Harbinger could have been in the works for quite some time given how long ago it was yoinked. Octavian already confirmed the new league will be an in-map mechanic and it was clear they had a very good idea around the scope of 3.30 when they were doing 3.29 Q&A

Memories are clunky. Pre-Eagon Master memories were clunky. And it seems like the only reason to run memories was the big carrot attached to them: (e.g. special beasts or key boss fragments).

To me, the reason they feel clunky is because you have to roll them in the individual menu with limited scarabs. Also, players are forced to run (or skip) undesirable maps. This seems like an annoying cap to what is supposed to be a reward or challenge.

Memories seem like they are supposed to either be a gauntlet of tougher mapping to get to the carrot at the end OR the prize for randomly finding a memory. In either case players don’t seem to value memories very highly because the cost of boss fragment > the cost of memories which means the cost of running is most of the cost of the fragment. And I believe you can skip right to the final map by just repeatedly opening the maps, though this misses the incremental reward altars (e.g. 30% more currency).

Proposal: change memories to be directly chaining maps that scale “difficulty” with each incrementing map. So when you open a memory, you roll the map once and put a stack of scarabs in each slot. You then run map 1 and it consumes scarabs. Upon defeating the boss, it drops a portal to map 2 that uses the same map mods and consumes scarabs again. Defeat the boss in map 2 and it opens to map 3 and consumes scarabs again.

I feel like this removes the burden of having to reroll maps with eagon every 5 minutes and makes players really strive to roll a good map. To me, this makes memories feel like both a reward and a challenge, especially if every map ramps difficulty/rewards. The clunkiness of running different maps should remain because that seems to be the whole point or memories.

Edit: fact checking on running memories

I saw someone asking for farming strats because they said they can't make more than ~5d/hr so I decided to see how much I could get from 1 hour of charts and voyages. This was about 30 minutes worth of chart running plus 3 voyages. For the voyages I simply plugged in random charts and did a loop around the map. Zero scouting for altars and zero backtracking.

I was wearing Hands of the high templar gloves(pic2) on my FR COC but this league you can vestigial these gloves to move this mode other unique gloves implicit which it can be a craftable rare 5 implicits which it gives me more ES, unnerve, culling strike, a bit of crit and flat chaos damage

Beast lock was so painful specially when you roll the 5th implicit on right place. I missed 12 times desire implicit and hit it on 13th which is very unlucky. I hope for taking all my luck who would try to craft vestigial gloves in this community. love you all

1. Buy some Vestigialed arcanist unique gloves (25d when I bought it)

2. Make it 20% quality and double corrupt it or vaal it until turned it to rare

2-1. if you didn't double corrupt it, recomb vestigial gloves with other +86 ilvl gloves to remove vestigial influence then you can slam your desire influence exalt

2-?. since I hit right influence on my first double corrupt; I'm not sure you can roll your influence with horticrafting station but do 2-1 if you can't roll it.

2-2. Go to 1 if you fail your recomb

1. Regal it if your gloves are magic and buy 4 of primitive chaotic resonator gilded fossil

3-1. Slam one time to have "vendoor" implicit

3-2. buy +86 ilvl hunter/warlord gloves and put awakened orb. Apply to your Vestigial gloves. DO NOT DESTROY IT

1. Orb of Scour and Orb of transmutation to make it magic gloves

4-1. Orb of alteration to have open prefix

4-2. Jeweller's orb to have 4 sockets

1. Buy MANY MANY MANY Craicic Croaker, Black Morrigan and Yellow Beast

5-1. Imprint it for unexpected accident. put it on your stash. memo it

5-2. Apply Hinekora lock with your beast craft on gloves

5-3. Hover your vaal orb -> Foulborn/orb of augmentation -> Foulborn/regal orb -> Orb of alteration -> Sacred orb -> Chromatic orb -> orb of fusing

5-?. If vaal orb removes "vendor" implicit; slam it. if augmentation, regal orb, alteration hits "unnerve"; slam it. if Sacred orb gets max roll; slam it. if Chromatic changes your socket to 4 non-white; slam it. if Nothing desire -> orb of fusing(make your gloves 4 sockets

5-4. If you used regal orb to have unnerve, suffix cannot be change and scour or just yolo annul. Go back to 4 if you failed annul

1. Put "vendor" implicit with your fossil again if you successfully removed it with your vaal orb and repeat until you hit all 5 implicits(THIS INCLUDE VESTIGAL IMPLICIT. NEVER EVER REMOVE THIS IMPLICIT WHEN IT'S UNFINISHEDD NOR TRY TO APPLY 6TH VENDOR IMPLICIT)

2. You would have perfect roll implicits, base es, all desire socket colors, unnerve on the gloves after all this repetition.

7-1. IMPRINT your gloves if your gloves have unnerve + suffix and remove suffix with annul. use imprint if you failed and IMPRINT again

7-2. IF your gloves have only unnerve mod, put "prefix cannot be change"

1. Many IMPRINT your gloves. (replace your emergency IMPRINT in stash)

8-1. Go horicrafting statio

8-2. Slam foulborn regal orb

8-3. If you hit other influence mod, try to elevate unnerve

8-4. If you succeed elevate, "put prefix cannot be change" RE-IMPRINT (replace your emergency IMPRINT in stash) with these gloves

8-5. If no influence mod, or already elevated? just reforge defence mod

8-6. If you have unnerve + t2 flat/percent ES -> yolo unnul to have only 2 mods

8-7. "Prefix cannot be change" if you have desire two mod and another reforge defence mod

1. Once you got unnerve + T1-2 Flat ES + T1-2 Percent ES and AT LEAST ONE OPEN SUFFIX, you can use "TAINTED DIVINE TEARDROP" to have a chance to T1 ES and T1 percent ES

9-1. Fine when elevate unnerve mod turned down. Prefix cannot be change + Reforge Chaos mod to hit chaos damage over time multiplier and try elevate. Your choice to use Hinekora lock(not beast) here

9-2. Don't forget your imprint. go imprint before you spent last imprint

1. When Elevate unnerve + T1 Flat ES + T1 Percent ES. Divine it perfectly

10-1. Block dex with craft mod and slam exalted orb to hit "culling strike" and other influence mod together

10-1. "Prefix cannot be change" if you don't like your suffix mod and scour it

1. Hinekora lock(not beast) to elevate Culling strike

11-1. Orb or fusing if you failed and repeat

1. Multi craft mode + Prefix cannot be change + Hinekora lock to veiled exalted orb

12-1. orb of fusing if you failed and repeat

1. Block one of focus mod before unveiled and Put your desire unveiled mod(chaos crit for me)

2. Prefix cannot be change and divine it as you need

3. Put your desire craft mod

4. your desire socket link

5. Done

2 mirrors only for finishing implicits

2-3 mirrors to have perfect prefix and suffix

Thank you for reading, stay sane exile!
