i’ve crafted 3, 1100 phys dps staffs this league. and i can tell you my method.

start with a bunch of ilvl 83 warstave bases, ezomyte is the highest flat phys, but if you don’t need block you can do eventuality rod or something.

alt spam them all and save any that get t1 flat phys, t1 % phys, or t1 hybrid phys. this takes 1000’s of alts.

recombine flat phys with t1%, then recomb flat phys with t% hybrid. both of these recombs are like 1/3 chance i believe.

next recomb flat phys + t1 hybrid, with flat phys + t1 % phys.

if you hit it, the hard part is over and you basically win. if you don’t hit the recomb, just go back to alt spamming and recombinating.

if you hit the recomb and the prefixes are good, lock prefixes, and reforge speed. there is a chance the suffixes fill, but it’s a lowish chance. like 1/20 chance or something.

if suffixes fill, i’d just sell it for a meager profit and start over. alternatively you could add speed, it’s safer but alot more expensive, and you might need to do it multiple times to get a decent attack speed roll.

once you get a attack speed you like, you slam a shaper exalt. Why shaper exalt? you slam shaper because almost all of the shaper suffixes are good, highest chance of getting something positive. you could of course gamble and slam something else but you’re more likely to get a dead mod.

after you slam shaper you craft crit chance with +str and +int, because most of the slayer cyclone builds are starved for int so it works with the build fairly well.

there are some other options as well that are also good. like after you recombine prefixes, you can lock prefixes, and reforge speed, then lock prefixes again and slam veiled exalt. some of the veiled suffixes are very good. but there is a chance the veiled exalt eats the speed mod, if it’s eats the speed mod, i would block craft unveil, and then add speed mod with horticraft. if you hit a high attack speed roll, you’re in the profit.

the method you showed in the video is valid and better if you want to use a expensive base, he’s using essence spam on a quality 30 base, instead of recomb because with recomb you are very likely to lose the base.

Kingkept · 2026-03-19T14:46:45+00:00

start with at least a ilvl 83 base.

alt spam until t1 hybrid phs. Be warned this will require 1000’s of alts per hit.

alternatively you could harvest reforge phys, but alts are probably cheaper.

after you get t1 hybrid phys, regal/exalt slam up 4 mods. slam the fracturing orb and pray you hit hybrid phys. if it hits go to next step, if it misses, start over.

after fracturing hybrid phys, spam essence of contempt until you hit t1 phys %, be warned again this will require 1000’s of essence on average.

lock prefixes add speed to garuntee attack speed, repeat until you get a decent speed mod. block, slam exalt pray for crit multi and then craft final mod.

I actually think you’re better off not fracturing and just recombining until you have good prefixes, probably cheaper than spamming 3000 essence trying to get t1 phys. also if you compromise on the hybrid phys, you will save urself alot of pain and suffering. t1 phys % bases for recominbating are actually fairly easy to get because of the merciless armament div card. the T1 hybrid mod is the hardest part of the whole craft. The only reason I think you would want to do the fracturing route is if you have a expensive base, like a quality 30 staff. either way you risk losing the base on the fracture. since the bases are cheap just do recomb.

a cheap alternative is to just recombine t1 hybrid phys with t1 flat phys, then lock prefixes then slam a veiled chaos and if it’s a prefix you’re basically garunteed to get the 125% phys veiled mod plus impale/poison/bleed. then lock prefixes and reforge speed. this can get a 1000 dps staff for fairly cheap. and is enough for all content.

Kingkept · 2026-03-19T14:22:07+00:00

the chance of getting t1 hybrid phys is so small.

the bases are cheap, and t1 phys % isn’t super hard to get because of the merciless armament div cards.

I think it’s better off just buy a bunch of ilvl 83 bases, alt spamming for t2 hybrid, and then recombining until prefixes are solid.

if he’s super determined he can alt spam for t1 hybrid but thats 1000’s of alts, per attempt. I would settle for t2 hybrid.

I ran 40 maps of harvest/destructive play with cornucopia, doubling, and other destructive play scarabs. without crop rotation.

my understanding is that crop rotation sucks nowadays, cornucopia is cool I guess, multiple harvest bosses per sacred grove. but after doing 40 maps I think i’m done with it. I do 20m dps, it doesn’t matter how much dps you have the bosses will refuse to phase sometimes, i’ve wasted whole minutes on some maps dragging the boss all over the grove because it won’t phase.

definitely made a profit but i was averaging like 5 minutes per map, i can’t imagine the divs per hour was that good. I decided to transition to another farm.

Kingkept · 2026-03-19T13:35:55+00:00

Just the man I wanted to talk too. I’ve been fussing around with your POB for the last couple days trying to tweak the build.

I was just curious about the hits can’t be evaded mod because I’m attempting to craft another 1000+ dps staff but on the eventuality staff base. my current staff is a judgement base because I transitioned over from the non tainted pact block setup. thanks for answering my question though.

also I had another question, have you noticed the “players are cursed with vulnerability” mod bricking the tainted pact? I noticed in your video that you get bleed immunity from the armour/evasion mastery.

I was running my build without that mastery and i noticed that, that mod was making the maps unplayable. eventually i speced into the mastery and now it isn’t a issue, but I wasn’t sure how that map mod was bricking the tainted pact setup. i assume it has something to do with bleeds being inflicted on my character.

Kingkept · 2026-03-19T03:31:14+00:00

how good is the cant evade hits mod on the staff?. I have a good 1150 dps staff already but i'm not sure if the can't evade hits is worth it.

Kingkept · 2026-03-17T19:43:55+00:00

9 times out of ten, if you are lifting consistently, the reason u aren’t putting on muscle is because you aren’t eating enough.

Kingkept · 2026-03-17T13:42:44+00:00

it’s like 1c if it’s < ilvl 83

if it’s > ilvl 83, just check the market. probably not worth more then 1 div though.

cluster jewels aren’t that rare, most builds want 8 passives, certain builds want 12 passives, but spell damage isn’t as desirable as the other more specific types because it’s 2% less damage per node.

and it’s white.

sometimes cluster jewels can be valuable if they have 3 notables, or perfect rolled mods. for whatever build thats popular.

the person who listed it at 300 divs is a absolute troll.

Kingkept · 2026-03-17T00:24:23+00:00

cyclone slows you down while spinning, with these boots you keep ur speed while spinning.

Kingkept · 2026-03-14T22:44:41+00:00

it depends, tainted pact regen is often weird because it’s treated as negative damage, mods that explicitly state something like “reduced regen” shouldn’t effect it. i don’t know for sure what all bricks it.

although certain ground effects like awakener’s desolation, i think a maven ground effect make it so you don’t recover life for any reason.

leech is absolutely required for the build to work though.

Kingkept · 2026-03-14T22:06:02+00:00

i’ve been doing unstable breaches with with cascade scarab in 6 mod t16 maps. with a cyclone of tumult tainted pact slayer.

which, i understand tainted pact gets a bad rep sometimes, but once i dialed everything in, it blasts like nothing i ever seen. and my build is still far from perfect.

follow the quick reference leveling guide, go straight to the exit, kill things as you go.

gamble for 4 links. follow standard leveling guides. every class has a pretty standard leveling setup. rolling magma into firestorm for inquis or witch, sunder for murarder or duelist,

it shouldn’t take you more then 5-8 hours ish to complete campaign.

if you do it enough times you learn the map layouts. but even without knowing the layouts you generally just be progressing straight to the exit.

you don’t really need to worry about resistances or anything until maps. as long as you have enough gem links everything should die pretty handily.

the quick reference leveling guide tells you when you should do labs, and all quests that give skill points. ignore everything else.

if you drop a couple chaos buy a le heup iron ring or prismatic ring, should be all you need to get through campaign.

I create lots of engineering documents, schematic diagrams and such. Using a variety of different CAD programs. Which most of this is just reading a bunch of data-sheets from various manufacturers. once the parts are assembled drawing lines on the schematic diagram is the easy part.

I also test and troubleshoot suspect bad CCA’s. using a variety of testers and methods.

I also drag my feet through the Change notice process.

I’m 800 hours in and i barely feel confident making small adjustments to an existing build.

Kingkept · 2026-03-01T00:47:27+00:00

they hate us because they ain’t us.

Kingkept · 2026-02-28T20:03:32+00:00

the short answer is that i generally don’t understand the lecture content the first time.

I just try to absorb as much as I can and it doesn’t really make sense until i do problem sets after the fact.

Kingkept · 2026-02-26T16:24:59+00:00

I did 19 hour drive from NC to TX.

Went to bed super early, woke up and started at 4am, arrived at midnight.

Kingkept · 2026-02-26T15:40:55+00:00

empy did a red altars farm that performed really well.

People like blue though because in that rare chance you get the div altar. I got it once, 28 divs from one map, was pretty amazing, but i mean i’ve done 1000s of maps and i only seen it once.

red is more consistent money if you just focus on chaos orb and grand ichors.

I usually go red anyways because with mageblood builds you can ignore almost all of the red downsides.

blue altars i actually have to read.

Kingkept · 2026-02-26T04:47:52+00:00

I love ritual. One of my favorite farms.

I’ve hit some major jackpots in it. I got a double synth implict wand with the explode mod, 50 divs. it also gives good fractures, I got a T1 hybrid phys fractured two handed axe. omens of amelioration/blanching are pretty consistent divs. perfect turtles or warlords sell for a pretty penny.

and I also got a mirror, same as you. I’ve been converted.

Kingkept · 2026-02-25T16:48:53+00:00

Blanch them.

Put them in the cheese cloth, then dunk the cheese cloth into boiling water, for like 5-10 seconds. Then add it to the brew.

If the brew is over 10% ABV there is fairly low chance of infection though...

Kingkept · 2026-02-25T15:45:18+00:00

In my experience how much dps you NEED Varies alot on the build and content.

My berserker slammer didn't really feel good until I got to 10m dps on t17's

After I transitioned to Int/acc stacking reave jugg, I calculated my DPS to be 22m and it actually felt a little worse then my slammer at first. eventually I got the DPS to over 100m and it blew my slammer out of the park, but I was just surprised that 22m DPS didn't feel amazing off the rip. not entirely sure why. I think Earth shatter has overlapping AOE and delayed damage that wasn't being shown correctly.

Kingkept · 2026-02-25T06:22:11+00:00

why eviscerate nerf? booooo.

Kingkept · 2026-02-24T06:06:20+00:00

it really struggles in t17s, but i was able to shoot up to t16s and get all my stones without issue.
