How is ssf going for u guys/girls? ^^

Been a good league for me, including my first Uber Elder and Uber Atziri! RNG was kind, giving me a 6l chest mid-league (hit in around 800 fusings) which gave me enough DPS to make up for my clumsiness as a player.
Having a blast on my Champion.

Only thing I have not found as yet is a 6L body armour.
Edit : although I am getting close

(sorry for my very bad english as a very bad for foreign languages person)

First league I play without any guide, just using PoE Ninja to see all the possibilities for the build I wanted.

I started with the usual error of wanting a specific unique with Chance spam, thinking Ngamahu's Flame was a pretty common drop anyway, but it isn't. I adapted to a Cyclone carried by an 5L Ancestral Warchief that used the best failed chanced axes :



Then, at lvl 95, bored to use every fusing and scouring to Chance, I create a ED/Contagion Trickster who drop that at lvl 80 :

Spoiler


I have not played the Trickster since.

I find some gloves that seems ok for this thing :



and a nice stat fixer two-stone ring :



It's not much but the first item I was proud of was my first ever 5 offcolor body :



Fun fact, I have 4 Quad tabs and 18 normal tabs full of


to try chancing them back in Standard SSF when Zana allow it.

I also got this :



I really don't see the point to keep it in SSF so I will probably sell it in Standard Trade league.

My league goal was to amass Perandus coins and uniques to bring them back into my Standard SSF collection.





It went okish, and I still have some Manors to do :D



I will probably finish the Uber Elder, Abysses and Delve parts from the last Challenge but I don't see how to complete the Timeless Conflicts in time (56/200 currently), so I will probably just chill doing stuff for the Standard SSF collection's sake.

It's my best time in PoE ever so I even take an Empyrean support pack. Melee and movement/interrupts feel so good, while Legion's drop variety is SSF candy.

Good SSF to all of you !
Did anyone farm the wolven king's bite and know the drop rate? I did around 100 lairs and only got 1. Is it really that rare?

#6, zero in Synthesis.

I did 834 x Lairs and found 24 x Wolven King and 3 x Pride of the First Ones.

I have to say the drop rate varies, I was only finding 2 cards after doing 300 maps before it start dropping more frequently.

Oddly, the first 2 cards dropped with 17% quantity gears while the 22 dropped without any quantity gears.

Used double corruption on 1 of the quivers and it was unchanged. Didn't know that T3 double corruption chamber can return unchanged corruption result.

ah

It's one of those div cards that is rare enough to call upon the rng fiesta I see. Thanks for the info!
level 92, starting to stack up the t13-15 maps. even have a guardian. just trying to get elder influence to cooperate so i can collect the damn memory fragments so i can do shaper.
it'll be a slow battle but should be safe/easy enough. grab my elder orb hopefully before league ends.

As I've found 6 Hysteria, it's the first time I do essence craft and sadly only two pass through annuls :



Then an Elder amu :



And then no more Annuls nor Divine left. I've even selled 3 Tabulas to hit -9 mana.

But it's a very nice upgrade for my Cyclone Molten Burst Chieftain !
Damn some crazy soul eater maraketh rare merked my jugg in like half a second while I was still farming for rigwalds. Guess this is a good time to quit the league after playing almost the full 3 months.

Alive characters:
- a gladiator
- an assassin
- a champion

Dead characters:
- 6 juggernauts
- a hierophant

Exalts:

Another 11 ex was used for crafting, maybe 8-9 others wasted on random slams. I guess in total ~40 pure ex dropped this league which is pretty nice for ssf.

I feel like all my shitty characters are alive somehow and the characters that I thought were tanky ended up being dead... even though they were doing similar difficulty content.

The gladiator I was almost sure was going to get instagibbed eventually against a t16 legion rare but honestly it never happened. It turned out vaal molten shell was a good enough safety net with max block. The assassin is garbage, it has like no defenses but it's alive. The champion was a tornado shot build as a pet project but the items hadn't come together yet so just like any other TS build without the items: it sucked. Was still farming for +2 TS helm, dying sun never dropped, and I only managed to farm up 4 of the rigwalds quill div cards. Also the bow itself had an open prefix and it was multimodded so I was hoping to run into the beast that crafts adding a prefix/remove a random suffix but somehow after all this time it never once showed up.

Some takeaways for the dead characters: the 6 dead juggs kind of highlights their glaring weakness, most of them died to some burst of elemental damage. The heirophant was a divine ire totem guy and it was honestly my favorite build but for whatever reason playing a totem build seemed to crash my game way more than usual. It didn't seem like a big deal at first because even though I crash/dc, I had a troll timber shield that pretty much let my totems do all the leeching for me while I was dc'ed. There's also a good ascendency node that gives crazy life/mana regen based on the number of totems out. If I could figure out why my computer was crashing so much with totem builds I probably would've played them much more in this league.
