    Ain't nothing wrong with that, honestly. People make profit off of secrecy and sometimes it's better to get that shit out there. Either a bug will be fixed or Lycos will be easier to get in future leagues, and you can bet it'll be the former lol.

    Man lots of shady people in this game heh.

    Lighty posted a video about how to use item levels in gauranteeing ancient orb results. I am betting he had a huge supply of ancient orb to sell since they have tripled, or more, in price now heh.

    wat a brane geniouse

    also lyco being expensive is a great example of why accuracy is a fookin horrible mechanic i love the lengths people will go to escape it

    Accuracy is a love hate relationship yeah. But they handle it better than most in this game.

    SST feels alright with lowish accuracy, particularly in corridors. If my shield misses it's still blowing up on the wall next to them and they're getting hit with the fragments.

    Edit: I'm sure it's sub optimal but it doesn't feel as bad as some other skills I've tried.

    My Xbox never updates PoE automatically, anyone else have this problem? I just double checked and it's set to keep games updated.

    I know conc affects solarboys, I just wanted to know if I should go for a spicy pseudo-7link or just get the minion+burning damage on an elder helm

    also i think i have brained too hard and too long and the ultimate build has been acquired, it involves every single aura in the game and probably elementalist

    i shall report back when i complete the game accidentally

    also if you want some shit that looks really cool put volley and projectile speed with summon phantasm on a skill and watch them frag out - they benefit insanely from imp proj

    So I got absurdly lucky and elder spawned on a t15 on my first real try to get the last three memory fragments. For some reason the 13th one dropped in a Sunken City which is the map that I completed to get elder to spawn on Reef. I then opened up a reef with my jugg, then swapped to my saboteur and then killed the elder to get the 14th memory fragment and no loot. Then I fought him again by just normally opening the map on my saboteur to get the 15th fragment.

    Conc does not affect TV spectres. That helmet is fantastic though, you can put your Spectres there and then run a 6L Flame Golem in your chest. Ideal links for TV are Minion Damage, Burning Damage, Swift Affliction, Elemental Focus, and Minion Res/Chance to Ignite. Res is a slightly lower multiplier but 50 all res means you can skip minion res on tree/jewels and get more minion life. That said minions are functionally immortal against everything but Uber Atziri/Elder anyway.

    I'm going for Uber try number 2 tonight/tomorrow. I cut Zombies to give my AG Fortify and I'm debating cutting Flesh and CWDT links for Golem space. The Zombies don't live nearly long enough to matter and their taunt/blind on hit is dubious.

    People are figuring that the mod "No Physical Damage" on some weapons is actually implemented as "120% Reduced Physical Damage" because the 30% Quality Beastcraft is causing those weapons to have physical damage again :rotate:

    We'll see how long this blog lasts

    I’m in tier 9maps early 80’s and I still haven’t gotten shaper to spawn to start shaping maps. Not sure if unlucky or doing something wrong.

    Last league mine was messed up because I jumped straight into red maps with my friend. It eventually fixed itself when we did a bunch of yellows for Elder.

    HAHA Duo'd it with my Jugg friend. Took 3 sets but the multiverse is safe. We got the Shaper ring and 3 shaped items.

    Whats up friends.

    I play this very casually. Beast, softcore. Last night I got a ballin ring and I have nfi what to sell it for, but I'm pretty sure its $$$.

    It's an amethyst rare with +9 chaos resist implicit, +40 all res (basically on the nose), and +72 life with 2 prefixes still open.

    Any ideas? Is this the Ring of Infinite Currency that it looks like?

    Also I miss breaches.

    Look at me. Look at me. Look at how large the monster inside me has become.

    +40 all res is impossible on a rare, you sure that's what it has? It's bugged, if it does. About one in every billion items generated is bugged and has regular affixes with absurdly high values; they've been trying to run that down for a while.

    Or did you mean triple res, values around 40? Yeah that's pretty alright. Amythest base is pretty low on demand so it's not ultrabucks.

    Right, I meant each one is +40. Well, 39/40/41 but yeah.

    that is an extremely good base for meta-crafting

    It sounds to me like he has three suffixes, each of which are a 40ish elemental res. If so then that's like 5ex+, a lot of unique heavy builds would love a ring that solves resistance issues.

    Shaper should be showing up already. To get elder to spawn, you have to run a shaper influenced T6.

    He is spawning he just isnt spawning the maps you need to run to get a shaped map , so I dont get access to elder yet.

    I bought a 6 link armor and the difference it makes in killing ability is quite significant. Not enough to stop me from dying, though.

    The labyrinth trials in maps are kind of annoying. I think I've found 10, but only 3 different ones.

    After I skipped the repeat I found I was wondering if I could have gotten another offer if I ran it. Next time I guess. Thanks.


    Powered through a Laboratory last night that given the affixes I probably should have skipped for a while. I think it was:
    -10% player resist
    290% increased monster critical chance
    93% extra monster damage as cold
    20% increased boss AS
    25% increased boss damage

    And maybe one more that I'm forgetting. It was right on the edge of too difficult and took me all of my portals to down the boss but the rush I got when I finished was superb. One of those tense, exciting moments you don't expect from a mid level ARPG encounter.
