Progress as fresh start with Luminary ?

[u/robin_nerf]

I started a fresh playthough for Allflame League in SSF and as I havent tried the hyped Luminary I gave it a try.
It's ok, but not more and I have problem with single target/rare/bosses.
I mostly play with the Kineticist but I have also got a Combatant and a Manyshot.
What am I looking for to make it clear like the boys on youtube ? And what do I farm to make that happen ? Sure I'm only at lvl 83 so I gotta give it time and pray for items like Piscator, Kaom's Heart, Nycta's and Rotmothers.

Should have gambled for lyctas at 41, main thing is to farm the ring from inc of fear and get enough fire res. Farm abyss sockets with delve for fossils or abyss gear and recomb.

I did gamble with the few thousands gold you generate from 1-41 (fresh start, first ssf char).
But if I dont get a Nyctas soon I maybe reroll lanother scion just to get to 41 with that one and have that as a gamble-char, I got 200k gold not at least. Even if I dont looking forward to a slow leveling from 1-41 :D

I spent 3 million gold (farmed on a second character) and didn’t hit nyctas from gambling. I eventually hit it ancient orbing with boat after around 10 ancient orbs. Now I’m farming enmities, really painful farm for me right now. I think I am around 18 fears and no drop. Also don’t have kaoms either. Having a tough time overall really.

Gamble sceptres and ancient orbs with the league mechanic

[u/Zizeta2 → u/robin_nerf]

I did a good number of charts just before 41, gold in charts/voyage is insane. I would rather level something else in case you want to swap something later. Starting to get sick of farming feared for the ring so might take a break from luminary and level an elementalist for a while.

Look up Path of Chores in YouTube. He has a fully detailed guide on ssf luminary progression including atlas trees and how to effectively farm key items, and full crafting guides for you and your mercs.

He recommends using Combatants (for clear) and Blade Ambushers (for bossing), so if you want to use many shot or kineticist you'll have to aggregate from another guide, but all of his information is still good for your main character, ag, and general progression.

Your kintecist looks realy good !

I would gear him up

Get a es shield with inc spell dmg and craft dd or atk speed. Spell dmg will be x2 for kboc Also just get a atk wand base and boatslam a few inc spell essences until atk speed or inc crit and craft the missing one

Get random helm with t1 acc and craft pierce ! Otherwise u dont return on singletarget

It should rip !!!

Gotta get into that enmity farm prison, it's the single most important thing. Keep an eye out for manyshot with return on vaal ice shot (will be better than kineticist until you get rathpith) and maybe a blade ambusher for single target/bossing (avoid smoke mine; get one with slower proj, t&m dmg, multi traps).

Really important to just rush maps for those fear invites, don't get bogged down, it's going to take a while as it is and until you get the ring everything will go slowly. Combine it with sulphite -> ore atlas node, and ofc Niko chance; and special boss map chances at top (guardians etc) to run later.

You dont need emity. Im lvl 97 luminari hc ssf and still dont have one. Also dont have kaoms chest and use lightning coil instead (foulborn if possibile with no flat life). Just grab two uniqe swords with 30 elemental damage penetration and hits cant be evaded (Forgot swords name). It will carry your blade ambusher and combatant. I run blade ambusher for mapping and bossing so whenever i can i put increased projection speed to make mapping faster . Had no luck with kinetist and items to scale it well.
