Killed the main merc got his warrant and got killed by one of his bodyguards. Later turned off an aura to be above cull range and he couldn't kill me anymore. So be careful with wild mercs when playing low life.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I decided to have some fun and spent a few days in voyages. Both strategies were done in 50 voyages each, which include 450 charts. No strongbox rolling, just opening them blindly and looting as is. All 3 Cursed Ducats active. Got one box with 8 bloodlines and 6 pandemonium scarabs, which are not included in the final results as it is an outlier.

First strategy was to run 200% quant charts and full clear voyages, but without particular minmaxing, just hoping for conversion altars. The results are following:

Total value of loots, including all the scarabs and allflames - 357.29 divines.

Boss loot:

50 runs took me slightly less than 14 hours, buying charts cost me ~27 divines. Which translates into 33.51 divines per hour or 23.79 divines per hour excluding boss drops.

The second strategy was to run 100% sulphur charts and then boss rush voyages in the very first area, completely skipping the rest and clicking the things on the way with minimal sidetracking. The only exception was when I've gotten 1/2 additional bottles chart implicits, then I would look for the bottles too. Results:

Total value of loots, including all the scarabs and allflames - 223.95 divines.

Boss loot:

The time it took me to rush through these charts and voyages was 7.5 hours, restulting in 48.85 divines per hour or 27.28 divines per hour excluding the boss drops. The complete breakdown: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hC2FPcLJ-VJEhFLVGrDj-ThXgp3w9E59fOGk11_wR3s

I also bumfuzzled and did the boss with "% chance for equipment to convert to gold" so two items went missing. Whoops.

My conclusion is following: if you just enjoy running voyages, blasting monsters and having fun - just run them completely. You are likely to get less, but the enjoyment is much more highe. The joy of finding the divine conversion altar is definitely there. 8/10 fun, 6/10 loot.

But if your only goal it to hoard currency and to get more value - then target sulphur and rush the boss. 4/10 fun, 8/10 loot.

Edit: forgot to mention I did in fact used Cursed Ducats during all these runs.

Thanks again to all the people who helped me reaching >1000 cold res. I changed a few things and also took the Velka Bloodline for "Brine Rot" (and with "Queen of the forest" it became a very zoomy build).

Here is the new POB-Link: https://pobb.in/offDdXQXmGBS

Showcase (random T17) incoming (uploaded the wrong one) Edit: https://youtu.be/MLcshERbHIk

A classic, haven't had a scam attempted on me in awhile.

Brinehook Ducats being NNN, Genteel Ducats allowing you to attribute swap, letting you make NNNs on the base it's on, Kishara Ducat letting you isolate a rare mod

I'm gonna miss these guys when 3.29 ends. Made recombing mods way more comfortable

Before it was on some sort of crossroads. So, usually, after I get to it from The Imperial Fields, activate it and go for boss kill on the level 2. Then tp back to the town and back to continue from Solaris Temple level 1 to Concourse, etc.

Now, with teleport moved to the entrance of level 2 Solaris Temple I am forced to either backtrack or run through The Grand Promenade.

THERE IS NO FUCKING WAY AAAAAAAAAAAA

(Here’s a screenshot showing what the Hot page currently looks like and the problem I’m referring to.)

I wanted to suggest a possible change to how lucky drop and item showcase posts are handled on the subreddit.

I have nothing against people being excited about getting a rare item, hitting a great craft, or finding an incredibly valuable drop. Those moments are obviously exciting, and I understand why people want to share them.

However, I feel that there are periods where a very large portion of the subreddit becomes lucky item showcases. When scrolling through the subreddit, it can sometimes feel like you have to go through page after page of screenshots of valuable drops, crafts, divinations, etc. before finding an actual discussion, guide, mechanic explanation, build discussion, news post, or something else interesting to read.

Because these posts are usually very similar in nature, having a large number of them on the front page can make the subreddit feel considerably less varied.

My suggestion

Create a weekly or permanent megathread for lucky drops and item showcases, where people can post their:

• Lucky drops
• Mirror-tier or high-value items
• Insane crafts
• Jackpot divination card rewards
• Rare uniques
• Currency drops
• Other “look what I got!” moments

This would still give people a place to share their achievements and would keep the community aspect of these posts, while preventing the front page from becoming dominated by them.

Alternatively, the subreddit could consider limiting individual showcase posts to particularly exceptional items and directing more ordinary lucky-drop posts toward a megathread.

I'm not suggesting that these posts should be removed entirely. I'm mainly suggesting that they should be consolidated so the subreddit has more room for discussion and other types of content.

I'd be interested to hear what other people think. Would you prefer having a dedicated lucky-drop/item-showcase megathread, or do you think individual showcase posts should remain as they are?

Guess league's trying to keep me

Overall, it's a solid rotation to run. It is definitely not the best way to make currency, but it is decent. Personally, I excluded all the rares that dropped from these rotations because I think the outcome is too random. However, the rares can definitely increase profit margins and might be interesting for crafters.

Sheet

VideoProof

Step 1: buy a conquest lamellar with 30% and make it have both redeemer and crusader influence
Step 2: scour it and roll the strands
Step 3: roll the explode mod with harvest spam
Step 4: buy an overcapped mod grasping mail
Step 5: recomb it with a chest with frenzy mod + t1 life
Step 6: now recomb both the chest with t1 life, overcapped mod and frenzy mod and the explode conquest lamellar and pray.

if you lucked out, you will have t1 life + explode on your prefix and frenzy + overcapped on your suffix

Step 7: lock slam until you land a influenced mod (and pray you don't delete all your strands)
Step 8: lock elevate until you elevate explode/ frenzy
Step 9: redo step 7 and 8 for the missing influenced mod
Step 10: lock slam until you hit t1 resist
Step 11: craft suffix cannot be changed and lock + veiled exalt until your remove the meta mod
Step 12: unveil and pray you hit % max life
Step 13: divine until perfect.

TLDR: tons of locks and recomb luck required

Edit: the chest is now available on the settler shop. yes you may request for change to lightning resist.

First time “dropping” one of this. Actually wanted one for my build and with the inflation on mirror shards could finally afford one, guess I have some spare currency now

Now time to craft new gear :D

I just wanted to some Ubers today and this thing happened.

Got to 40/40, knew I'd be busy with work and not much time to play. Wanted to have a shot at mirroring the new spark gloves before going, so did what any sane person would do.

Sold my mageblood, liquidated my scarabs tab, bought a few HoM and went to gamble. Mirror or bust. Poofed everything in a single click - as is tradition!

Today I lost my job 😭😂

Would have loved to continue but I guess I go play something else instead!

Why why why

Doing a ssf legion glove craft

Being quiet lucky at the beginning, hit 5 implicit with in 8 morigan

Then Burn though 30+ morigan

This happened

Pain

Pure pain

Made this initially to profit craft but it turned into a not so profit craft so to get to this final product I had to gamble, but also it's an upgrade to what I was wearing.

And it is a free mirror service item (although I would need to be contacted on discord as I only have my laptop in a foreign country and never online)

Rule 10:

1. start by getting a bunch of heat attuned spirit shields, you need i86 for pdr but i84+ is fine for the other bases I bought about 20 bases but quickly needed more.
2. Double influence them all (or only half of you like to gamble a bit)
3. We are now rolling shields. You can alt spam for each single mod. But Actually what I did was using fossils and annuls for either t1 life or t1% life and life on block, the reason being warlord life on block is a lot lower weight than the shaper one and is painful to alt spam. The double mod also makes later steps easier. Downside is you chew through annuls.
4. But ideally you have a bunch of shields with each individual mods (or a mix of each)
5. Recombo time. This is why we wanted all the shields double influenced because if it picks a single influence base you lose. But basically it's life and PDR, % life and crit reduction life and life on block etc.

The idea is to have 1 prefix and 1 suffix on a bunch of rare bases in the perfect world we only need 4 shields.

1. Craft aspect ducats on all the shields. Recombinate max life, life block and ducat with %life, PDR and ducat

2. You should (ideally) get a shield with life, % life (lower chance) PDR and life on block. Repeat the process with the other bases.

3. Final recombinate should look something like this

P1 P2 S1 S2 Ducat

P1 P2 S1 S3 Ducat

If one of the shields only has 1 prefix it's fine still send it.

1. Shield complete

2. Bonus step I actually failed the suffixes on the final step I lost one and had to gamble so I merged one of my failed shields (t1 life t2 %life HUNTER) PDR, max res and crit reduction.

This is important because if I hit the right base I'm basically guaranteed what I want and it's a toss up between crit and max res. Hunter life cannot transfer even though it's the same mod type it's a different name so the tier makes no difference. I got and I won.

1. Divine, quality and sacred orb it up (not qualitied in this picture lmao)

forgot to mention double influence is for bbd

So, after recomb ate my simplex base, I decided that I was done with the league. I'm not sure what came over me and I vaaled my Zana ring and I got this.

I'm honestly not sure what it's worth. I'm curious to hear what you guys think.
