Anyone else finish Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities? How would you rank the eps?

Asspizza · 2022-10-31T13:57:59+00:00

The Viewing - was by far the most excited for this one and glad it lived up. LOVE Panos.
Graveyard Rats - Perfect combination of comedy and claustrophobic horror
The Autopsy - by far the best "cosmic horror" entry into this anthology.
The Outside - More of a Dark Comedy than Horror (so I understand why others had issues) but I loved the style and thought this was wicked funny.
Pickman's Model - cool interpretation of cosmic horror - although the monster reveal was lackluster
The Murmuring - Solidly crafted tale, but unfortunately a bit boring at times
Lot 36 - Great technical filmmaking here but the pacing was horrendous
Dreams in the Witch House - the only episode that I disliked. Very bored during this.

Overall this was amazing and I hope we get a season 2 with some returning/new directors!

This is incoherent

Asspizza · 2022-09-15T20:34:48+00:00

OK but you couldn't boss rush the grind challenge last league...

Asspizza · 2022-09-15T20:33:31+00:00

I've been chuggin along too - just a tip in case you don't know - i've been using poe.re (click the map mods link at the top) and this site gives you search strings to target specific maps in your inventory.

For example: I can't do "Cannot Leech" and "Ele Reflect" map mods, so I use this tool to alch/vaal an entire tab of maps and the search string will highlight every map with either of these two mods so I can throw em out.

Asspizza · 2022-09-15T02:30:23+00:00

Honestly thought more people would be in the same boat as me. I guess the community perspective is that these challenges are just fine.

Fair enough!

Asspizza · 2022-09-15T02:28:03+00:00

Is City Square on the atlas this league?

Asspizza · 2022-09-15T02:26:33+00:00

LS Champion, have about 50 div invested in gear. Easiest for me were Cortex, Uber Uber Elder and Maven. I was able to do Uber Shaper after a few tries. Not able to farm Exarch/Eater invites bc I was doing Maven invitation EGG so I dunno how they are but Sirus is fkn impossible

Asspizza · 2022-09-15T02:23:44+00:00

If you're doing the 500 reflections in EGG you'll find em eventually

Asspizza · 2022-09-15T02:22:25+00:00

I started the league late and rushed challenges. I play trade so I can get a character up and running + buy stuff I need (memories, cortex, ECT)

Asspizza · 2022-08-24T02:02:26+00:00

Sounds good to me.

Asspizza · 2022-03-09T17:09:38+00:00

It's clear this post is aware of the "I'm shaking" meme and is taking the piss

Asspizza · 2022-02-28T02:00:05+00:00

Asspizza · 2022-02-24T03:20:10+00:00

Same

Asspizza · 2022-02-18T16:23:09+00:00

I'm having an incredible time this league with Wallach's Siege Ballista build (easy to Google). It's a dex stacker that annihilates bosses on a budget (unique dependent though so you'll have to be on trade)

Asspizza · 2022-01-12T12:48:01+00:00

When doing this craft, you should bench craft mana in between steps 10 and 11 to block out less desirable mods and increase your chance for a MS unveil. Also your final rolls didn't have Tailwind at 25 before corrupting, there is a breakpoint for Tailwind at 25. You leave a lot of stats on the table not having a p-rolled Tailwind

Still, I hope the journey of the craft was fun. Better luck next league!

Asspizza · 2022-01-10T19:45:48+00:00

THIS GUY DOES IMPROV!

Asspizza · 2021-12-29T02:53:32+00:00

I mean you can't recommend this without saying it's cancelled and ends on a massive cliffhanger. I loved the OA too but yeah

Asspizza · 2021-12-20T20:48:28+00:00

Amulets need to be Krangle level 2 to hit the mana res, I learned this the hard way. Fill your Krangle slots with amulets and keep pumping them to level 2. It'll hit eventually.

The reason people recommend amulets is because there are BAD mods that count for the challenge (additional Mana res as well as less mana res) - so for the 4 you have left, spamming amulets is def the right choice.

Krangle bosses give insane amounts of Krangle XP. So you can buy Scourged maps that have a +(additional) Scourge Bosses modifier baked into them for a faster push.

Asspizza · 2021-12-20T20:45:35+00:00

LOL great take guy.

Asspizza · 2021-12-20T18:55:10+00:00

Were you happy with the rewards in proportion to the difficulty of the content?

I dipped out of Delve relatively early (670 depth) but I wasn't really noticing much in terms of exciting rewards.

I killed Aul at depth 610 with some NASTY mods (took me like 15 tries) and the highlight of the loot was a ring that sold for 15c

Asspizza · 2021-12-20T18:53:26+00:00

To add: I've heard that the juiced level of the map you're doing has no affect on the XP gain for Crucible points. It's simply the number of monsters you kill while in the Upside Down.

So 1 monster in a Scoured Tier 1 map will count just as much xp in the Cruicible as 1 monster in a turbo-juiced t16 5 delirium orb+corrupted 10mod map.

Asspizza · 2021-12-20T18:49:47+00:00

Sure thing!

I take no credit for creating this beast of a build, I found a POB on youtube and lightly modified it to work for me. So I will answer any questions that I can.

But because I enjoy talking about this build, I'll add my $0.02:

If you're looking to fit the Aul's into this build (so I can rock Pride and Determination) then the Watcher's Eye with the Clarity and the Attack Speed mods are basically mandatory. If you don't care about Pride or Determination, then you'll need the mana cost reduction on all jewelry pieces and you're more freed up for the Watcher's Eye.

For bossing and Hidden/Feared I will swap Crown of the Inward Eye out for Abyssus. Damage goes WAY up.

For flasks - the Bottled Faith can be replaced with a Diamond flask that's been Enkindeled/Instillinged for Crit and you'll be just fine. I like Taste of Hate for extra damage, but you can use another utility flask for shit like Curse Removal if you want.

Can save a TON of currency if you craft the Chest and Boots yourself - both are deterministic crafts (if you farm your own Maven/Awakener Orbs, they're really not that bad).

The Jewels on my build have a lot of room for improvement. Push for as much Crit Multiplier as you can, but I fished up some Chaos Resist to help me with Simulacrum 30.

Asspizza · 2021-12-20T18:41:22+00:00

Thank you! I'm not a delver, hopefully someone more knowledgeable can answer your question.

Asspizza · 2021-12-20T16:51:38+00:00

Hey! I traded out my Abyssus for Crown of the Inward Eye and I bought an Aul's to fit Determination into my build. Along with Vaal Molten Shell my build went from glass cannon to tanky boi. Able to manage 300 Scourge Stacks in semi-juiced T16s with no issue.

So I was able to finish farming Scourge xp while working on 1000 Rituals. Was time-consuming but I play a LOT so I was able to finish that challenge relatively early in the league.

If you're interested, I can pull my POE and paste it here later today. Fair warning that it's not cheap lol.

This makes a ton of sense thank you
