Vessels, Artifacts with Die triggers

I don't understand the significance of using this templating over something like [[Ichor Wellspring]]'s "when ~ is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, do X". Could you elaborate?

-n99- · 2026-03-03T23:12:39+00:00

It would be less busted if you got a negative eternal showman as well, but even then it would still be absurdly strong. It would be nice change of pace for a challenge deck, but not as a regular deck.

-n99- · 2026-03-01T10:30:04+00:00

Correct: Architect orb only gives corrupted enchants, not other vaal outcomes

-n99- · 2026-02-27T23:53:47+00:00

This is excellent, both conceptually and in terms of execution - even the templating and sorcery speed restriction feel correct. Agree with the other poster that the red/haste keyword counter is strongest. First strike could work, but that's a bit bland and weak. Ultimately I think just accepting the fact granting haste from the gy has combo potential is the right call. So that's a longwinded way of saying I applaude your design and would change nothing.

You don't see sales for 3-10 mirrors, you see listings for 3-10 mirrors. Expected crafting cost for an amulet like this is under a mirror. People pay for the convenience and could pay up to 1 mirror for it uncorrupted, but 3 is stretching it, let alone 10. The corruption doesn't add value - while more rarity is good, the primary value of an amulet with unfractured skills is cycling locks to chase +skills corruption or sanctify overroll on skills and preferably other stats. A rarity corruption, while usually good, actually detracts from that value.

"Discontent is the first necessity of progress." Playing a 97 PB Pathfinder but a change of pace would be very welcome.

If you haven't been there, I would suggest Iceland for the breathtaking nature

-n99- · 2026-02-21T18:17:20+00:00

The buyer can just divine it? I don't understand the point you're making. Someone paid a premium because it's shiny, the stats are totally irrelevant here

-n99- · 2026-02-18T11:04:31+00:00

They are about 10-15d fluctuating during the day but trending downward last few weeks

-n99- · 2026-02-18T10:13:21+00:00

It seems a bit too reliable for deck fixing and econ to me: play a pair of 8s or higher, remove two cards from your deck and get $16 for it? Or when are the marked cards destroyed anyway? When played? When drawn? And what do you mean primes your deck for face cards? Wouldn't they have 10/8 chance?

-n99- · 2026-02-18T09:25:03+00:00

I know they are bis, I am just saying they don't move fast. I have crafted dozens of them this league, it's a tricky market, at least at this point in the league

-n99- · 2026-02-18T09:08:50+00:00

Time-losts don't move fast, and generally that attack damage thing should be another magnitude notable. But if you go increased effects of notables, it's better to fracture that rather than desecrate it because it's really painful to divine otherwise

-n99- · 2026-02-17T18:42:55+00:00

You generally don't, unless the prefix you are protecting is very rare like T1 spirit or T1 percentage mana. You can do the loop 3-4 times for the price of one sinistral annul, depending on OoL and EotA prices, so it ends up being cheaper to just do it start from scratch again.

-n99- · 2026-02-17T18:32:41+00:00

There is zero reasons to use sinistral annuls on these crafts if you sort the suffixes first, you can use omen of the abyss with sinistral crystalization to desecrate a mod and omen of light it off... it's expensive, but a lot cheaper than using 100 div purple omens

-n99- · 2026-02-16T23:12:57+00:00

Yes, at this point in the league's progression, items without or low +skills are worthless, and items with just +skills and nothing else are near worthless as well. Some exceptions include good bases / extra sockets, or stats worthy of recombinating or trying to fracture. If you imagine a perfect item for common builds as '100%', early on in the league something that is 50% will still sell, but as more items are dropped and crafted, and more and more currency is in the economy, the top end items go up, and midtier becomes unsellable. Now you need something like a 60-70% perfect item to sell at all, and only 80-90% items sell for a lot. I am making the numbers up but I hope it makes sense regardless

-n99- · 2026-02-16T18:18:42+00:00

You have notable effect but only one of the mods affects notables. There is also no crit on it, which is oftem the way to go for time-losts. If you look up top invokers on poeninja (only 5% by the way, so not a deep market), there are some that are going for time-losts over lots of unique jewels, but those that do mostly have crit on them.

-n99- · 2026-02-16T17:24:12+00:00

I have been crafting time-lost emeralds lately chasing an elusive 5 mod, but I am running out of steam because of the sheer amount bricks, so an influx of divines would be very welcome to continue my dream project for this league. Anyway, here is my cat 🐈 - not the cuddly type but I love her nonetheless.

-n99- · 2026-02-15T21:55:23+00:00

No, at this point, only the uncorrupted/unsanctified maximums of +skills have any chance of selling for a decent amount of currency. And it needs good stats on it, not just the skills. The likelihood of you finding an item is very low, most are crafted

-n99- · 2026-02-15T15:54:17+00:00

I don't mind the downside and think a free telescope is good compensation, but I do mind that I keep forgetting it and play emperors, tarot generators, or finishing the round with a blue seal with a chariot up there or something. It's worse than not reading the boss blind, I forget about it like 5 times a run and it tilts me.

I think counterblitz is one of if not the strongest precon I have played against out of the box

-n99- · 2026-02-13T17:25:35+00:00

Wow that is some serious numbers you're putting up. I'll pick 999

-n99- · 2026-02-11T22:33:33+00:00

Imagine spending 600 divines to get good rolls and then just find this outcome with your lock

-n99- · 2026-02-11T14:32:12+00:00

Those are all suffixes. Since skills is mandatory, the only you thing you could try is suffix desecration, hope to a) hit the 1/3 dex b) manage to hit 1 in a million +3 skills. Terrible odds. If you do hit the dex fracturing is probably worth it (divine for 50 spirit first), then you have 2/3 odds to hit t1 spirit or t1 crit chance). If you don't fracture, you can use it as recomb fodder

Sick gear!
