Hey, if you would add 10 extra quality on a wand it would be 10 more pure damage, you can do it through beast corruption on a ready wand, or through perfect fossil on a fractured base

Yo Ducks. I just wanna be able to run Wave 30 Sims. What builds reliably pull this off? I'm not a huge fan of armor stacking. I have a CI Necro w/ the 3x Holy Relic. It clears to wave 20 or so but the Holy Relics keep dying. I haven't sorted out how to keep them alive or what. It does a LOT of damage and I can clear T17s with bad mods but doing Wave30 sim feels like another animal.

hi , can you show regex ?

Ty for the shoutout, nice version for T17s. Happy that KB of frag is still going strong even after the nerfs :)

Some of the mods that were just copy-pasted from Valdo maps need to be removed. It's cool to overcome Marked for death once as a challenge but it has no place on regular maps. Or deal no damage for 4 out of 10 seconds. Sometimes I really don't understand GGG with this pattern that keeps repeating where they think and even say on the reveal stream/interviews "yea u will play the game normally and from time to time you will go craft with harvest, necropolis, do a t17 map, etc...". In trade league it NEVER pans out that way. People will always turn the most profitable thing into the main gameplay loop of the game. And right now the endgame loop is not fun... roll a set of maps using hundreds of chaos orbs, sometimes *build dependent* having to multiple regex them cause 50 character limit then still have to deal with mods that brick your characters defense/offence in one way or another and still get one-shot at times even though you put multiple mirrors into a character that is just defenses and enough damage to complete the map. I hope some things get adjusted and changed next league. T17 maps are cool but it's such a big shift. Basically the mapping system the huge atlas that got us all hooked on this game feels irrelevant. All of the high-end gameplay happens outside of the atlas. The entire atlas is just a checklist.

This is exactly what they want. They don't want most people playing this game, and they don't want people reaching pinnacle bosses easily so they gated them behind content that is harder than the Uber bosses themselves. They also don't want them to be rewarding. Look at people running hundreds of most of the pinnacle bosses and still losing money. Not even breaking even, straight up losing 2000-3000 chaos. . Most of the money is from running maps. T17s and the graveyard crafting has crippled 90% of the gains from pretty much every other farming strategy. Tier 17s are cool in concept... but maybe they should go back to the old system, and maybe have Uber bosses drop tier 17 maps instead lol. Because at this point, t17 maps are 2-3 times harder than Ubers.

I remember when i dropped my first t17 map pre nerf, i spent a sizeable amount of my chaos at the time rolling it to what i deemed runnable as a minion build, just to get bricked by the totems reflect damage dealt to their summoner, it turns out this mod applied to minions as well, not just totems despite it specifying totems. That instantly crushed any desire to want to engage with it any further.

Game designer don't play their games anymore. at least not as much they used to. They became detached from gaming experienceand and try to balance games from excel and data table that does not tell the entire story. This league is a warning.

totally agree uber bosses are so easy compared to T17 maps I can do deathless uber bosses, but have to use all the portals in T17s maybe I just suck at this game:)

Marked for death is doable with any build that runs polymath btw. Great video very informative. ❤

Hey Man i did this build. Kinda got the exact same items/jewels etc, but the dmg isnt great unless i stand on top of the enemy,and also accuracy is an issue i had to craft t1 accuracy on my ring to get to 100% hit chance even with lvl 21 precision

Use marked for death mod maps with containment scarabs and it works like a charm.

So this is the "middle ground" between pinacle bosses and uber bosses? Ok...

Went from setting up an Uber farmer for 50 divines, to needing 400+ divine build to comfortably-ish farm T17s lol. That's the middle ground they want. 50% of players don't even make 200+ divines in a league.

How does this compare to splitting steel champ with Mahuxotl’s Machination? I’m trying to pick between these two options.

my currency progression this league was: hit t16s, run ritual in t16 for about 50 div, make character stronker, run harvest crop rotation + winged scarab farm until i could fun a new build and i was bored of harvest, then dump 200-300div into a hexblast char and run sanctum, now im bored and idk what to do anymore lmao

Tried my 1st t17 map last night with a 30d archmage build that is min-maxed to about 99% of what is reasonable and the boss just one shot me as soon as I walk in there, over and over, after having full cleared the map itself. How tf does that work? I don’t get it….

@JasielMartini

Ай бұрын

It doesn't. You won't get anywhere in T17s with anything under 100 divines. Sorry. Staying in Tier 16s until you have drop at least 200-250 divines into a build and then you might only die once or twice per tier 17 map. i've done 2 and just ended up dying over and over at the boss. Funnily enough, I can drop my brands, and run away, clear slowly, and try not to die on my 30 divine Penance Brand Trickster. I can almost clear an entire map in about 15 minutes. And in a single T17 map even not full clearing it I make 5x more currency than I do from 20 T16s. I swear buying them for 40-60C and clearing until the portals are expended is STILL more profitable than full clearing 20 tier 16s.

if your first T17 wasnt fortress than its 100% guaranteed.

Tfw you can farm uber bosses and juiced up T16's but cant finish a T17...😅

17 maps are poorly implemented. I wish they would just increase the baseline difficulty of T17 maps and then just give them the core pool of map mods and make it to where they can be re-rolled like anything else in the game, even made white or blue. I shouldn't be sweating my ass off running a T17 map and then falling asleep doing uber maven.
