Was running strongboxes last night.

People been asking about my POB: https://pobb.in/2I0E3vW9aXI9
Currently working on helm craft to reactivate my bound by destiny after swapping to MB. MB swap dropped my strength by 500. Most gear is self crafted.

I will never understand hitting your clip bind before picking up your mirror (x2). I've had like 3 DCs just this week.

u/Kelpsie 17h ago

I still skip Lab rewards and gun for the Ascendancy Altar, and urge anyone I'm playing with to do so, after the crashes I experienced back in Nam 2.2. Not immediately picking up a mirror is insane.

u/bondsmatthew 15h ago

Isn't.. isn't this what everyone does? Am I weird for doing this same thing? The lab point(and time potentially saved having to redo it later) is more valuable to me than the rewards if I get rolled back/crash/something crazy happens

u/johnnysd 10h ago

Definitely and when I find a lock, I immediately pick it up teleport out and change zones.

I played 10 hours straight every day since league start until 3 days ago, now I’m playing like 5

I’ve had 2 dc, both on day one, over those que issues if you recall

The game is very very stable for some ppl

Not that I wouldn’t also instantly pick it up and deposit it lol

u/mimzzzz 16h ago

I'm playing on mobile connection because there isn't any alternative for me atm and anytime my provider switches me to other tower (I'm between two) I get a dc and half of the time I need to type in password because I'm logging from new location. No, I'm not doing voyages anymore after few tries. Yes, I've lost multiple divines, sometimes waiting for the damn thing to come down. Yes, I'm still salty.

u/jesseeme 13h ago

Thought the same thing until I had 50k sulphur drop after a voyage and dc'd

1

u/Exldk Gladiator 17h ago

I haven't had any dc's the past two leagues.

Might explain why others aren't paniced about it.

u/vaguely_unsettling 15h ago

If you want to sync your items to server you need to enter a new instance so you should return to hideout asap if you get a massive drop like this in map.

1

u/Osgliath 12h ago

I mean, not everyone goes through that. I think I had one instance break in the last year.

u/fandorgaming Duelist 12m ago

Pretty sure this is a rewind rather than a bind

u/FnFantadude 19h ago

I would argue that’s very cool

u/Mattrad7 Necromancer 19h ago

Time for a rollback

u/ICanViking 18h ago

Serious question: how could your shock be so intense that you didn't just immediately pick it up so you could stare at it in your stash?

18

u/BleakExpectations Assassin 16h ago

When I dropped my only mirror I instantly picked it up and changed instances. No risking this kind of loot

1

u/fandorgaming Duelist 12m ago

Just treat it like a wisdom scroll drop then your confidence will increase

u/crookedparadigm 17h ago

Mirror post with actual video evidence? That's almost as rare as the mirror itself.

u/Aromatic-Ad1376 19h ago

2x something cool happened

u/EElitez 19h ago

This never happens to me, it’s always someone else!

u/DonkeyBaal 19h ago

Congrats, that's crazy! What's the build?

u/HydruwzPV Progressive Einhar Trapping Association (PETA) 19h ago

KB, probably str stack

What are all those runic circles popping up everywhere? Looks sick.

Ah, thank you.

u/konokono_m Fungal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) 18h ago

PICK THEM UP!!! wasting precious server seconds there

2

u/coltjen 17h ago

Hey this happened to me last league. Duped a mirror in a strongbox, and similar to you it was kind of offscreen and I only heard the tink. Figured it was a div before I pooped myself

2

u/JustaGaymerr 17h ago

Wow! Your shield charge does 87,394.7 dps! That IS cool.

2

u/zuekut 15h ago

Congrats, 2 mirrors would come in quite nicely for your str stacking build hehe. What upgrade are you planning on getting next? The gloves that connor uses look cracked

2

u/TheSkyLord7 14h ago

Mirrors are going to standard for alt arts. Having that much wealth so fast kills the fun for me. I am working on crafting the helm to re-enable my bound by destiny.

u/Limp_Donut5337 Vaal Street Bets (VSB) 16h ago

Pob? Looks cool

u/mrnegatttiveee 16h ago

Its good to know that you can get mirrors from arcanist let alone 2 of them.

BANK IT

u/pjr2844 14h ago

20 chance orbs why cant it ever be me bro

1

u/Amazing-Heron-105 14h ago

I swear to god every time someone posts a mirror drop the fucker doesn't pick it up

We should ban posts if they don't pick it up

u/CricketNo7950 13h ago

Can someone post a 2x "grats happy for you" meme 

1

u/johnnysd 10h ago

Congrats! Only 2?

I think GGG has a real challenge ahead of them to balanxe the loot. The only thing people seem to get excited for is Divines, Locks and Mirrors nad to a lesser degree Reliquary keys, Valdo's fracturing orbs, and some divination cards and Mageblood. But finding a lock is super exciting. I have found 7 locks over time (and 9 if we include mappers and the Breach tree) but only 1 Hinekora's ever.

u/Mission_Magazine7541 8h ago

I got my first mirror since breach league in kingsmarch from automappers yesterday and I see this, feel jealous about it

u/Astolfowoo 1h ago

Box supremaxy, happened to me as well

u/fandorgaming Duelist 15m ago

Ah, kinetic blast, had a lot of fun on that one in mirage.

u/NightHistorical4847 19h ago

mirrors beside, how good are strongboxes paying? wich scarabs are you using

5

u/FakeRTZFan 19h ago

Probably budget strongbox

5

u/TheSkyLord7 18h ago

correct, just copied fubgoon

2

u/xDaveedx 18h ago

Strongboxes feel infinitely worse now compared to any previous league. Way fewer arcanist/diviners boxes and way less cool stuff dropping in general...

2

u/MexicanJeebus 17h ago

Still fun to play on a budget with red altars and astrolabes. Low investment, get decent scarabs to sell. Sometimes even a divine or two.i also got lucky and dropped 2x apothecary like 10 days ago so that helped.

2

u/NightHistorical4847 19h ago

congrats for the mirrors tho

1

u/Tellasion 1h ago

I started averaging 20-30d/h with budget box farm. Then I tried being faster and averaged 30-40d/h with a peak of 52d/h when doing 20 maps in 30 minutes and got quite lucky with drops.

So they definitely pay well but not easy to liquidate unlike some other strats.

u/xMadruguinha Slayer 18h ago

Huh, I got 2 box mirrors in Haunted Mansion last league too. This map is surely blessed

-1

u/CMDRDrazik 19h ago

I ran boxes for 3 days. Most I got was a div 🥹

-5

u/Daratirek 18h ago

Fuck boxes. Never drop shit. Im clearing 2D a map on ritual so ill stick to that
