I love being bad at this game and realizing I'm still using a badly rolled Lochtonial Caress at level 35 because I'm terrible at evaluating rares.

What's Delve and how do I get to do it?

I missed Betrayal and have no idea what's going on with this board of people, is there a good guide anywhere with what I'm meant to be doing here? I've heard you can get really good stuff out of it but also really easily miss out, but all the guides I've found are for super speed farming and not "here is what this mechanic is and how to properly do it."

Do you think a lot of problems with Synthesis could be helped if either memories had ~twice as many uses so they weren't constantly collapsing, or if you could just place all of them from the Nexus without having the "planned" spots than can get randomly overwritten? Seems like either of those could do a lot to cut down on how tedious a lot of it feels. I don't know it'd make it actually worth it still, but I'd probably pay more attention to the Nexus if I knew progressing towards a modifier couldn't drop stuff right in my way.

Memories collapsing in the nexus at all is something that really confused me at the start. I thought the whole point of the nexus, conceptually, was that it stabilized all these memories. Having each type of memory add a modifier to an end reward node could be a simpler way to do what they're trying to, also. Like a beach adds something minor since it's common, a volcano adds a breach, that cave one with Nico's memory adds sulphite, whatever - and then at the end you have one extremely loaded map, instead of 30 possibly good ones.

Mine doesn't, but it also doesn't really go near any life nodes that are better than es. Volume going down looks pretty likely though, there's only 39 up right now.

Pokeball and sell the expensive beasts, just do the recipe for the rest and see if anything good comes out. Each red beast only gets used in one thing, so you can't lose out on something else by doing all your Create Unique Belt recipes or whatever.

Have you loaded it in Path of Building? That might have the rest. Otherwise, maybe just open up one of the Storm Brand builds in the OP and continue on to that.

Man finding and buying jewels makes me want to die. I guess since all my gear is dirt cheap (turns out when you play melee this league your gear stops costing multiple exalts per piece) I can swing it, but I really don't want to. Also, how do you all usually go about getting a loreweave? Just keeping unique rings you find until you've got enough? I'm having a hell of a time finding people who actually bother to stop what they're doing and trade 1 alch rings to me.
|
# ¿ Mar 25, 2019 19:51 |

Yeah, you can find them for dirt cheap though they go quick and trade is bad at indexing them. I've found a couple of Kaom's Signs and stuff for 1 alch or chisel. I have enough rings from just random drops that it's technically cheaper to buy the remaining 45 than to drop 55c, but it probably is just not worth the time for most people to trade.

I think this is what the point of the system was meant to be. Most mods you can get through synthesis are going to be better than the nothing you'd usually have in that implicit slot. They may not be incredibly valuable, but a chest that you get +15% cold/lightning on instead of nothing at all is always going to be a better base than the same chest without that. It has the potential for extreme highroll, but that's not the sole use of the mechanic.

I'm on act 5 with a 2H cleave\bloodrage build that I pulled out of my arse and while it's a lot of fun and clears monsters quickly, I also die quickly. You could look at Tectonic Slam? Pretty good melee weapons are dirt cheap this league, check out an Oro's Sacrifice or something. Also probably take more life in your tree than you have been.

Filthy Monkey posted:I enjoyed it, as I found ice nova CoC fun. I hit 96 for the first time ever, and got in three uber elder kills. After that I mostly petered out though. Memories were interesting, but I only ever managed to synthesize vendor material. Yeah, actually. The highest I've made it was 83, and I don't think I've ever had more than an exalt or two net worth. That looks fun, I'd give it a shot. My character's called NumberOneArbysFan.

NuckmasterJ posted:Hey goons, I'm a newish player and I have a question that has been asked a few hundred times in this thread. Step one: quote:I don't get synthesis or the crafting of items in it. I also don't get the delve stuff due to the material required to delve being pretty rare on maps; I can't get down to the area with my level gear (50's) because the cost is to high. The little weird fellow doesn't show up that often on maps either. The beast arena is also a mystery on what's it for. The map lady after you restart the whole map I've straight up ignored since there's a good chance it won't make much sense to me either. Ignore this poo poo. You'll have time later to care about it. Step two: what builds are you looking at/playing? You should probably ignore anything that doesn't say "league starter" or "beginner" or "budget" in the title. The one that gets pointed to most often for starting is Enki's Arc Witch (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1147951) due in large part to having a very clearly defined act by act guide of what items you're looking for, what skills you're using, and when to change those things. Even if you're not playing Arc Witch, you can still use it as a sort of framework for how to progress through the story. Don't get hung up on the exact rares they link in the guides, either - look for stuff with similar stats and sockets, but you can shift where your resists etc are around. Most of these sorts of guides will only ask you to use uniques that cost a couple chaos tops too. Step three: Linking your own gear is for suckers or people crafting gear from the ground up if you need more than a 4link. You don't want to be either at this point, you're new and don't have the money to craft beyond the crafting bench. Go on the trade site (https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Synthesis) and search for what you want. There's a ton of submenus there but they're all for exactly what they say - just select "body armor" in the type filter, a minimum of 5 or 6 links in the socket filter, and maybe fill in socket colors if you don't have a lot of chromatic orbs. Mediocre (read: good enough for your purposes) 6ls are around 15c, and 5ls are basically pocket change. Make sure you can actually equip the stuff you're buying, too - there's level/stat filters if you don't want to check each one. I'm sure other people can have better advice than me, but this is the basics. Just progress through the story, equip better gear if you find it, buy better gear if you don't find it, and try to keep your resists maxed.

# ¿ Apr 15, 2019 19:22 |

The other important thing to remember is that you don't need a 6link to get into endgame. A 5l with good stats can run you half or less of the cost. I usually like wearing a 5l with life and resists way more than a Tabula - you can upgrade to an okay 6l off what you make in white maps.

The other case, and one that seems more likely here, is that Infernal Mantle is only worth about a fusing. It's not worth most people's time to go and make that trade though, so they just don't respond unless they're sitting doing nothing.
|
# ¿ Apr 22, 2019 19:27 |

Oh, yeah, that's true. I can't imagine why you'd try to price fix infernal mantle though. Maybe there's a lot fewer of them on PS4.

# ¿ Apr 22, 2019 19:34 |

It's not impossible to find someone who can buy one, they're like 150ex right now. You might want to look for the stuff up for either around that price or for mirror service, though, see if there's some insane build-carrying bow or whatever.

Garfu posted:What spell should I be casting as a zombie necro to trigger the charges for Victario's? I've just been running around letting my zombies do everything and I feel kinda useless. Is that just the necro life? I feel like I'm missing something wrt self casting something. That is kinda necro life, because a lot of them just take Necromantic Aegis and let the minions trigger those charges themselves. Storm Brand would work fine, though.

Running zombies and spectres rather than skeletons could probably do it fine, basically all minions are crazy strong right now. Animated Guardian too.

Zereth posted:Ah, thanks! Still the wand I found gives more physical damage and is only down one slot (which wasn't connected to anythign so I was just leveling a support gem for when I can link it up) so I'm using it anyway. Tabula Rasa, it's one of the best leveling items in the game because it lets you use a 6-link from level 1 and is usually one of the cheapest ways to get a 6-link in general. If you're past level 70 you don't really need it, but if you make a new character it'll be very helpful.

Yeah I'd say the only leveling gear you'd need is movement speed stuff and maybe a tabula, if you really want one. Tons of people who started as as summoner this league made it to maps with level 5 whites and stuff on.
