Is there a central figure to TL PoE I should dump currency to? I think I'm done with this season and if there was some caring person that would put currency to good use or redistribute it for newer people then that'd be k.

Otherwise I've got like 40c and a few hundred other currencies that would just not do anything.

Oh also a tabula rasa

Are Jeweller's Orbs worth hoarding? I was thinking about converting some to Chromatic or Chaos via the market but they're worth more than I expected (about 10 jewellers -> 1 chaos, or nearly 1:1 for chromatics). I have like 500+ compared to my ~dozens of chaos/fusing/chromatic so I just assumed they were much easier to come by and wouldn't be worth much..

I mean they have good value, I don't really know what your question is. Convert to chaos if you need liquid assets, if you are planning on 5 or 6 linking you keep them as jewelers. You all burn a decent amount getting 6 sockets on an item, and burn a ton trading them for fuses 4 for 1 at the merchant for linking (or trading with players is a better ratio exist, but it usually doesn't).

I knew they're used for 5/6S but I just assumed if I was flooded with them that they're easier to come by and they wouldn't be "as valuable". I didn't phrase it well. 6S don't seem as hard to come by (or as valuable) as a 5/6L obviously so 350 jewellers for the guaranteed 6S doesn't seem like it'd be "35 chaos" worth of currency. But I guess I won't complain, definitely going to liquidate most of them into something more useful for me right now, since I don't see myself needing to craft my own 6S/6L any time soon (rather just buy it). I guess I'm too naive to crafting still to see why you would go super hard on rolling your own 6S/6L instead of just buying one for chaos straight up. But it probably works out to be cheaper if you're experienced with getting the most out of the benches.

Desperately need chromatics at the moment because I accidentally chromatic'd my 5L Bronn's Lithe. I need it to only have 1G (and any combo of R and B in the others) which is a pain in the ass on a pure evasion base

Those that roll their own 6s6l don't roll it on 30c items, they roll it on 30ex items.

I'm I the only one who thinks this is mega awkward?

Could easily be interpreted as:

1. Calling someone's SO a prostitute.

2. Implying that your friend is unattractive ( feels shitty for your friend and their SO).

Just a big no-no all around.

Me and my friend have a unique rapport
For the second point, the more accurate implication is that he's less attractive than her.

I don't think you understand, its much more likely to feel bad for the GF than his friend. You would be happy to get something and be told by others that it is of higher value. You would be unhappy if you acquired something and people told you it was of low value. Especially if you invested a lot of time and energy in the transaction.

It's just not something you should do. It's something that it thrown around all the time in movies and is a bit more more OK when old people and parents do it (as their opinions of attractiveness are considered less important), but nobody really wants to be told that their SO is less attractive than them, less intelligent than them, etc etc. People choose relationships because they value the other person. They are happy when their SO does something impressive or noteworthy, and just the same it's not a good feeling to be basically told you are settling in some respect.

Yeah, you might be able to get away with it due to a weird cultural history (wouldn't recommend trying it with genders switched), but its always better to just give a compliment instead of pairing it with an insult or pointing out a shortcoming. Maybe you and your friend have a really old relationship and like to mess with each other, the point is that you are including his GF in this which you do not have this relationship with. I'm not really worried about your friends feelings.

Aside from this, you wen't from the standard, "wow, how did you get your amazing SO", to basically implying prostitution...I'd say that's in.... poor taste, as we say.

I'm not saying you're Hitler, I'm just saying that there is a decent chance you made the GF feel kind of shitty, and that could be easily avoided. Not a huge deal, just advice. You're not doing your friend any favors with the ladies either. Almost any guy will tell you how the second they get into a relationship, suddenly other women start expressing significantly more interest in them. This is because seeing that someone else is interested and finds a person high value, causes others to adjust their own opinion. If you see a restaurant with a line out the door, you are much more likely to want go try it (for good reason).

The moral grandstanding just irks me. Its a simple joke of 'damn she is hot how the fuck did you manage that' which is a joke that is fucking old, common, and harmless. If anything it is complimentary to the GF, saying that she is very attractive. Now we've had two pages of useless discussion completely unrelated to POE because sobek decided to let everyone know how awful it is for friends to joke around with each other.
