So the EA build ain't bad, different than I expected. Cruising thru yellow maps right now trying to just fill out my atlas. Main upgrades right now are to start dump WED on as much as possible, and get a nice chest once I 5/6L my bow (using tabula still).
Oh I never picked up the Grand Spectrum jewels either. Is that a crazy upgrade over decent 2-3 roll rare jewels? Or were they just relatively cheap and easy to start with at the time
I tried EA with my fireball trickster, clear speed lowered significantly. Also seems the dps did as well (but that is probably because I had no WED on gear). I think I will try Burning Arrow instead. 1s+ wait time before stuff explodes is irritating (and with trickster that is 1.25s), that is slower than Flameblast that I also gave up on for map clearing

Grand spectrum isn't important, it's just 36% icnreased fire damage when you have 3 of them (per jewel slot), regarding ea clear speed, attack once and keep moving, no need to stare at the soon to be corpses.

Procrastinated by updating a dozen or so div card pages on the wiki with info from various official forum or Reddit threads; truly my greatest contribution to the community.
At 12/15 memory fragments with two guardians down; should hopefully get the questline finished when I'm on tomorrow if my potato computer doesn't go into freeze-frame mode during the fights. Sitting at something like 110-ish Atlas completion, with only one unique map done (a random Caer Blaidd that dropped) - seems a little low compared to last leagues, or maybe it's having more red maps dropping from the temple (with no "unique map" chest) + nerfed Encroaching Darkness drop rate?
I'm pretty slow at farming currency - looking to grab a Hatred phys=>cold Watcher's Eye + statstick for BF/Reave (probably 8ex?) or upgrade my 5L Belly to 6L ... wondering I should throw fuses at my current chest once I get 600-odd, or buy a second one to gamble with in case I don't get a 5L again. Previous leagues I've always used the Vorici bench, but ...

I bought bellies and spammed them until they 5linked and then sold them. Did that 6 times and got tired of it so I just bought the 6l. I need a good weapon now but they're not cheap, might buy thousands of alts and try my luck.
|
I'm gonna buy my next 6L too after failing to link my Inpulsa. But now I'm switching to another char so I sold that one. Anyway one thing that was a lot more stomachable in Bestiary was Einhar. Alva gets really annoying after a while with her single "Just in time" line, especially when you rush zones due to not wanting to be overleveled.

Bought it with full suffixes for 100c and hit the anull so I can craft attack speed. GOOD SHIT

Damn, amazing. Anull orbs just failed me in the past.

My luck with them hasn't been great this league either, bricked several weapons I bought for up to 100c. I suppose you have to keep doing it to deal with variance.
|
Finally getting to do some crafting as well this league. I tried to get +1 trap gloves for a while now, my first hit took me 70c spam and ~500 alts. I think it was just a bad run, got it again twice within maybe 300 more alts?
Got these earlier, the life was hit with an augment:
+ Show Spoiler +
Easy regal:
+ Show Spoiler +
Easy exalt, plus the gloves they're going to replace:
+ Show Spoiler +
If it would have hit a prefix I would have exalted again, bricked suffix I'd have called it a day and crafted a res on.

If anyone on HC incursion needs red elder removed from atlas I can do it. Watchers eye as fee if it drops?

I don't know what the norm is, and I'm not risking my character for nothing :D

Sounds fine for me, it's heavy sure, but it's dangerous too. My Storm Burst CWC Ball Lightning shit build had pretty great dps but died 4 times on its T15 Elder kill. I'm sure you'd find people accepting that offer.
|
For what it's worth you can now clear elders from your atlas just by having 20+ elder influenced maps and not killing the Elder/any of his guardians. Obviously if you want the completion credit that doesn't work, though.

Have they made any changes to map sustainability since the atlas was last updated? I'm sitting at 90% completion bonus atm but doesn't feel super smooth in terms of finding higher tier maps. I'm tempted to start completing the red ones and forgo the shaping strategy. I also haven't found a single unique map yet, did they lower the drop rate or something?

For me map sustain has felt very manageable with incursions and temples. And I've found a good chunk of unique maps.
|
Map sustain is fine thanks to the temple for me as well. But I only found 2 unique maps so far which is horrible.
|
I haven't hit any unique maps either and I'm most of the way into yellow maps I think idk. Most of my uniques in the past have been from that corrupted unique map div card anyway though I think. Always had bad luck there.
Anyone have experience with the new Vaal BV? BV as a whole seems popular right now but the actual Vaal part doesn't seem that useful lol, just that BV as a whole got buffed or whatever. Just brainstorming things.
|
I can't fully sustain elder underground seas but can sustain shaped belfry mostly fine with falling back to shaped waste pool when I get low. Between those I rarely have to do maps below t15 and basically can't fall below shaped waste pool. Been making decent money selling all my t10-13 maps

Vall bv is great. Ranged ai bv.
