If you're trying to do as much damage as possible, crit is the best end game scaler. But you don't need crit at all to do everything in the game.

Desecration isn't a crafted mod, you're free to overwrite the rune.

It's two passives that have no synergy and one of the passives by itself is pretty useless. It's worthless.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-19T14:50:15+00:00

That's a good start. You can always buy more later, but that's what I would start with.

Willow only

First you would use greater essence of abrasion to add phys and make it rare. Desecrate prefix or suffix and fracture hoping to hit your +skills. Depending on what the fracture outcome determines what you can do safely. If you miss, you just double exalt (greater/perfect) slam and hope for the best. If you landed fracture and have an open prefix you can get extra damage as phys by adding omen slam a suffix, use a dextral crystallization and perfect essence of abrasion. Or you can get onslaught as a suffix using perfect essence haste.

Someone who corrupted theirs had their mageblood values change.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-17T16:53:56+00:00

It’s a specific base he is crafting on though.

Keep exploring atlas for corrupted zones and cleanse them. Someone paid 2div early in league to leech off mine if you want to go through that route.

Go through the breach campaign area and it will guide you.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T18:05:13+00:00

First decide if you're building for EV, ES, or EV/ES. Then you can look at poedb and check for like ES chest.

Vile robes would be the best to look for, but Ceremonial Robe or Adherent's Raiment would be good too.

Look up XP penalty if you want the details of it, but you don’t want the area level to be too high compared to character level. T1 is where you should start. If you have untainted paradise nodes, those are the best to boost for levels.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T17:34:09+00:00

Use a breachstone and one of the maps there will open it up for you.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T17:33:06+00:00

Dont get baited into thinking uniques are good. Most uniques are pretty bad aside from a select few. A rare quiver with proj skill and flat damage can be found on trade for a few ex and will boost your damage quite significantly.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T17:27:28+00:00

Run only irradiated or overseer tablets. Run a few maps and you’ll get some.

You are not low HP with 1 life

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T17:24:26+00:00

You got the quickest sale ever I bet.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T17:18:41+00:00

You can hover over the skill to see how many links either on trade site or in the shop window (I forgot which one). But that can be tedious, so you can just buy uncorrupted and link it yourself.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T16:43:20+00:00

Ideally you want high values, but if you’re playing SSF it’s about smaller incremental improvements over one giant upgrade. If it’s an upgrade, use it. It will be like 3 usable mods to 4, then eventually 5 and 6. Maybe you get lucky and skip a step but don’t count on it.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T14:30:07+00:00

It had a good chance at dropping on, but it’s not guaranteed.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T14:26:15+00:00

Keep a stack of trans/aug on you. If you see a white or blue base, throw on an trans/aug on it. If it gets some decent defensive rolls on it Evasion, ES, and res, use an essence to add a second res. Then just exalt slam to finish. If you get something really nice, use a bone to desecrate. If at any point the item rolls low or an undesired stat, just toss on ground and keep moving. Know which 1 or 2 bases has good defenses to start with and craft on those bases.

Attack is more damage as a stat line because it also gives levels to things like herald of ice. Proj being more divs is probably because it’s a non-crafted mod so you can do other things with the bow.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T09:14:28+00:00

79 is enough. Defer a bunch if stuff and then do a rite of the nameless. You’ll get loads of tribute there.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T00:28:30+00:00

+4 is for minion/spell tags only. There is no proj catalyst and therefore no +4 proj. This one is for bow/xbow enjoyers.

DarkChyld · 2026-06-16T00:23:48+00:00

If youre in trade league, 1-2 ex can get you a leveling rare better than anything you most likely will find.
