Just made a couple sales. I've got 8.5ex in my stash rn.

Can anyone take a look at my profile and give me some advice on what I should prioritize in changing? I was thinking my weapon probably needs to be upgraded first, but since Disfavour is out of the question, got any advice on how I should be crafting or buying my own Rare 2H Axe?

Kinda new to everything. Thanks.


Buy an ilevel 80 elder 2h axe (vaal axe pref) then spam alts until you hit level 20 fortify hybrid roll. Regal it and hope to hit good attack speed or flat phys. If you don't hit one of those you have to get the 50/50 annul. This process can take somewhere around 3 or 4 ex depending on how lucky you are.

When you have the axe you just craft to finish it off. Multimod, attack speed, flat phys, int or str/quality and +2 support gems. Total cost for those is 5ex and 8chaos.

Then you just have to 6l which should be fairly easy with 38%q but it's still all luck so you never know.

Note: before any of this you can use perfect fossils on the weapon to get 30%q before you even start the craft but it will add on a fair bit more currency. Alternatively you can add quality through the syndicate or beast mastery crafting later on.

Total cost for the axe should be somewhere around 9-10 ex plus the cost to 6l it.

With how expensive disfavor is this league I don't really see much point investing in one when the craft is pretty much the same price, but each to their own



How strong needs the crafted vall axe to be, in order to be better than the Disfavor??

Stick with Sinvicta if those are your 2 options
Helm is good
Looks good!


Thanks! It also feels good ;) Really strong build for SSF, lots of gear options to upgrade with Disfavour as a final goal.
I love to be able to play SSF up to an end goal that's achievable playing casually (don't have time to play 6 hours a day).

How about this base? +2 to melee worse than the other crafted?
Which gem should I sacrifice for 5L?
I checked about 10 last pages of the thread but couldn't find anything.
FAQ gives recs for 3.1 which I assume is obsolete.
Seems like it was confirmed on reddit by GGG that fleshripper's implicit affects the crit chance before overwhelm.

Had this idea of going fleshripper + overwhelm for 5% -> 8% -> 12% base crit. Instead it's 5% -> 7.5% -> 8% making the implicit useless on fleshripper while using that ascendancy. If it gave 12% crit base it would be so insane.
Good thing I'm using RT and didn't spec into overwhelm I suppose.

I see a lot of discussion about crafting your own axe, is it better than disfavour? Seems crafting an axe yourself is cheaper, but is it better?


should 100% be better in most cases, imo. on PoB my current 2h is about 22%ish more dps than a disfavor, and i'm still missing the +2gems which is another 6% dps.

if disfavor was cheaper it would be different but 10ex for an unlinked one is just mad. you would have to be pretty unlucky with alt spamming and annuls to not get a crafted one for less than that
Would that Axe be enough dps for UE?

Expected but lawd the inflation on basic items like Devos and roar being like 10x more now. It's pretty rough. Works out to like 13ex outside of rares.

I am trying cyclone out now after starting with ED+CONT to get some quick currency. I am doing a non-bleed/crimson just for now and I'll probably transition. That means executioner/cleaving and running vulnerablity can be put on hold yeah? I am going to fill out still Kinetic, Brink and splitting strikes.

Outside of a nice roll rare with right chants, is Starkonja a decent poverty replacement for a helm? Or better to just stick with a nicely rolled rare?

I am using Kaom's Primacy just for now until I get some luck. I can't think of another poverty option - maybe after uberlab I can drop it because of culling.

Kaom's sub for this build? A belly? Just placement options until I farm more currency.


Read the thread there is tons of info on budget build recommendations. Sinvicta is 2c and way better than Kaoms

[/b]


I appreciate the detailed response. After going through my inventory and buying a few pieces I came up with this poverty starter. I can't run both flesh+stone and blood+stone, and no blas+vun - I can't afford the loss of HP to Wurm it either.

Anyway this is what I came up with:




I was looking for a nice dbl res 5l chest but ones with decent HP were overpriced. Belly is like 1ex. I have 1ex, 100+chaos and random amount of other currency gathered from my ED.

The gloves are placeholders because they will sell nicely if I don't commit to a prefix/suffix. I didn't think the boots were good enough for a 4 chaos MS chant.


I could go belly no links for 20-22c and pay 30-35c for a 5link sinvictus. I was thinking maybe that and an enlighten gem so I can run blood+sand as well. I am not sure on the resale value on that 50+ chaos though, maybe best to just grind currency and pull the trigger on better.

i would just buy a cheap 6l with life. i paid around 35c for one with 100 life and one res. no point spending a lot on a chest when it will get replaced fairly quickly.
How do we like using haemophilia gloves with this build?
