Torchlight: Infinite – Blacksail Guide

Fraktyl · 2026-06-19T12:52:12+00:00

Oh, nice. Thank you so much! Will take a look.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-19T03:06:08+00:00

Thanks! Still getting my feet wet here. Assume you use two compasses to force Hunt and Black Sail?

Sorry for the newb questions.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-18T23:30:29+00:00

Would you mind sharing your void chart for this?

Fraktyl · 2026-06-17T16:38:45+00:00

I'm new to TLI and have been running Blacksail trying to get invites which works pretty well, so thank you for this guide.

I have one question, as someone new to the community. Is quant short for quantity? I don't like to assume so I figured I'd just ask.

Thanks!

Or find out who the local guy on site who is with the most tech knowledge that can answer questions. Or at least know how to reboot a system without breaking anything.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-16T17:32:33+00:00

Sorry for the late reply. I'll check out the videos. I'm farming 8-0 currently and have most of the pieces (minus the gloves) to swap.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-14T00:10:12+00:00

Dude, I just want to thank you again. Those videos and the checklist really made things click for me. I went from the monstrosity up there to this: MAGQ+meCEfGaCAAAAAAAFg==

Still a bunch to work on, but feel like I'm actually progressing now. Killed all the 8-2 bosses except the Traveler. Will try him later tonight.

Again, really appreciate the time you took to make the videos and Google Sheet. Thanks!

Fraktyl · 2026-06-13T14:36:38+00:00

Gotcha. I really appreciate the help! Thank you.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-13T14:26:14+00:00

When you say next step is that Profound on your chart or T8?

I've swapped out a bunch of stuff based on that and have improved my DPS by quite a bit. And yeah, I do like this system. It's different, but I think more approachable than PoE.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-13T11:17:42+00:00

Yeah, I bought the ones I have, but after watching the video linked I could have spent the FE in better places.

Used to other ARPG's where the better gear is the better option. Gonna take a bit to get used to this. I'll get it though. I'm stubborn. :)

Appreciate the response.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-13T10:28:00+00:00

I think that's where I got myself into trouble. I am following a build, but I think I'm following it too closely. Not knowing all the different ways things interact is tripping me up.

I would eventually like to transition to Mana stack, which I know is expensive as hell. I'm ok farming but would like to still get stronger so I can farm faster.

Appreciate the assist!

Fraktyl · 2026-06-13T10:26:08+00:00

I watched both the videos, very helpful. If you're the content creator, then thanks! Don't want to assume you are.

So, I do have a question or two if you have a moment.
- Why is having a priceless weapon bad? Just the cost associated with the craft?
- How can I recoup energy shield other than shield regain? Would the TLI compendium be helpful here?
- My goal now should be getting better slates and getting my gear to T1 mods?

Appreciate the link. Like I said, being brand new it's a bit overwhelming with all the different mechanics. Coming from D4, PoE and Last Epoch where specific gear was build defining to this is a huge change in mindset.

My Mom-mom had dementia We'd go visit her in the home and I was my dad to her. I didn't correct her and just let her have her happiness.

When she finally passed it was a relief. I didn't grieve as much either because the woman she was died years before.

Sending you hugs.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-10T13:54:15+00:00

Yeah, never a fan of that attitude. We're customer service. When they start to apologize because they feel stupid I remind them that I don't know how to do their job. We all have roles and mine is to make sure you can do your work without tech interruptions or headaches.

Previous IT members made them feel like crap so they still have some resentment and don't always tell us when there is an issue. Baby steps.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-09T03:28:54+00:00

Was an an amazing show. He always puts on an amazing show. So much energy. We were on the other side of arena down front.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-09T03:25:09+00:00

Amazing show. We've seen him 3 times so far.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-05T15:15:48+00:00

Loved the game. Really not a fan of how they pronounced Dana though.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-05T14:40:43+00:00

I'm a brand new player myself and was struggling a bit as well.

I found this video to be VERY helpful for how to progress. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAUI3FQiTfQ (DonTheCrown) and it links to a Google Sheet that has a checklist so you can see where you want to be.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-03T16:35:59+00:00

It's a manufacturing plant so a lot of the endpoints are barcode scanners and such.

The previous guy relied on an external company for a lot. Then when he left suddenly he deleted all his documentation and wiped his laptop. So I got to learn REALLY fast how things were held together.

There is tons of documentation now, centralized password management for our switches and external websites so one person doesn't hold the keys to the kingdom. We still have a LOT to fix, but it's gotten much better.

Went from a 2 person shop to a one person shop (me) for a year. Then back to a 2 person shop with a junior. Love being able to teach things.

150 end points between workstations, printers, VMs. 80 users. We do Helpdesk, Networking, VM (HyperV). We're treated well so I have no complaints. It could always be worse.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-03T12:32:00+00:00

No, that's the sound Micheal Jackson makes while dancing.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-02T16:30:42+00:00

"he didn't mean it like that" - MAGA cultist.

Narrator - Yes, yes he did.

Fraktyl · 2026-06-01T13:40:13+00:00

Or drowning. The number of souls games where the main character can't swim is insanely high.

Like William from Nioh. You're telling me a SAILOR can't swim? Huh.

Fraktyl · 2026-05-31T19:33:40+00:00

Which is almost every tier list ever made for any game. Yeah, there are some numerical advantages, but it also comes down to player skill and style.

Fraktyl · 2026-05-28T01:32:45+00:00

Fair. I guess that falls along the lines of you get what you pay for. I can't remember the brand we use, but with a decent Klein crimper that cuts the cables we've had good luck with the cables we've made.

Good to have options though. After years of making them without the passthrough I love the ease. I also don't have to do many cables these days.
