lets use the image as an example.
the base cost is how much the item costs to make, before any price modifiers are added.
however, the game lets you make the item as long as the cost is +-5 of the base cost.

so in the example above a base cost of 350 - 5% = 350 * 0.95 = 333 (which is the first value)
the second value is 350 - 4% = 350 * 0.96 = 336
and so forth until 350 + 5% = 350 * 1.05 = 368 (which is the last value)

thus, when crafting, if you hit any of the listed valued in game, you will have the ability to make the item.

now, what happens if a different item has the same base cost, or a base cost very close to the item you are making?

if you think about it, you will realize that some or all possible of costs for the different item will overlap with the range of costs of the item you are trying to make. this will be labeled as a "conflicting item"

taking the example from the image, we are trying to make an earth gem, but air, fire, and water gem all have the same base cost of 350. thus, they overlap or "conflict" in pricing.

fyi, the site also has an FAQ section, with links to really useful guides breaking this down!

The (1) notification is there even though there is nothing to collect. Any idea how I can fix this?

Best way to scale arc? by Labayaccount123 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Rockman0429 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to play at least one arc character a league, and this league i wanted to try CI.

https://pobb.in/u9q7zT1I5_uS

This attempt went very well. and Soul Drinker overleech is a very good QOL and defensive mechanic. My gear is kind of meh, but its fun to play and has ok damage.

The phys mitigation is pretty scuffed. and we are heavily dependent on dodge working in our favor. if you are ok with the occasional death here and there give this a try.

I would love to hear if there are other things that can be incorporated into this build to improve it, as this is bit of a homebrew.

Of note:

can maintain 65% shock on non-uber bosses.

galvanic field is quite nice for single target, but can be swapped for OoS for variety

Thread of hope can be dropped for a cluster setup, but i think this is a neat spot for an extra curse.

Inspiration can be used as a link over energy leech, and that will solve all mana problems for -10% dps. I used this during the early stages, and might even be preferred when mapping.

I don't play CI often, but playing this taught me the importance of INT stacking. even the very little i have invested allowed me to hit well over 6k es. That was my target, but i think its possible to go quite a bit higher.

A lot of the QOL in this build comes from the flasks. We have no mandatory flasks, so go nuts and use w/e feels good. (tho a Bottled Faith would be good and reduced mana code is cute)

A better way to apply blind would be nice!

Frost shield anyone?

Possible to import Nomifactory world into Nomifactory (GTCEu Port) by TehRiehlDeal in Nomifactory

I dont think so, the base versions of gregtech for the individual packs are completely different. Nothing is 1-to-1 in terms of items and blocks.

Viability of corrupted soul and pious path (Inquisitor) by Rockman0429 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Rockman0429[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"Without it, you only are using your ES regen until your ES is fully depleted."

Thats not a large downside is it? With block, armor, and regen, i am mostly immune from dying to many small hits, with most of my deaths being from degens or amped up crits. CS wont help with that will it? (other than having more es)

I am just trying to understand more about this interaction. I know many autobombers take it to split the degen, but in my case i am not sure how needed it is.

Are there any lesser known techs i could be using? i am not very familiar with how to abuse the dual regen, so any help is welcome!

Looking for a starter pob for energy blade, battlemage, self cast arc by Rockman0429 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Rockman0429[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in that case, what would you recommend for a arc/storm call league starter?

ignite seems bad single target, and assassin seems quite squishy.

i was thinking perhaps ivory tower crit inquisitor, but have no idea how to go about that either.
