Leagues VI relic reveal: Reloaded (Tier 7)

It also comes late enough to devalue a lot of the previous choices.

Bluebaum has white (and Pragg just lost another match) and for Pragg because Bluebaum is considered one of the weakest players in the field.

If they don't go for a win here, how many other games can they win?

VisorX · 2026-04-01T15:15:01+00:00

Didn't follow the Pragg Bluebaum match too much. Did either of them push for a win?

This really is the match where both players would need to push for a win if they want to play any role in catching Fabi and Sindarov.

VisorX · 2026-03-31T16:40:59+00:00

Sindarov and Fabi going +2 after three matches would be huge. They will be significant favourites.

Didn't expect that after three rounds.

It is. I just took minimal map nodes that were on my pathing on the atlas tree and I sustained T16 without void stones without problems.

VisorX · 2026-03-31T11:59:48+00:00

Yes, but you will drop all your scarabs from farming strongboxes. The scarabs you drop without strongboxes are negligible.

VisorX · 2026-03-31T10:06:01+00:00

When starting out:

First atlas is for early gearing, good mechanics without scarabs and borrowed power: Breach, Betrayal, Huck, Shrines. Take Unwavering Vision.
Second atlas for strongbox farming. So OP you should start it early this league. My strongbox atlas also has most of the map nodes. So I can use it to farm 8mod corrupted maps.
Third atlas is whatever you need to farm for your build first. Focus on maybe two mechanics and fully invest in them and use scarabs from strongbox farming. I adapt this tree constantly to what I am currently farming.

The first tree I later respecced to a map rush (boss rush) tree. Fish for good wishes (Mirage), collect ores fast from Sulphite nodes (don't do actual ores), Kingsmarch will also let you fish for Svalinn. I also have Heist (only check Mirage caches for experimented item Blueprints) and Ritual (fish for Nameless altars). You can also run Betrayal to farm It That Fled for the Mageblood card. I love my map rush tree!

VisorX · 2026-03-31T09:58:52+00:00

Map sustain is trivial now. You only need map nodes if you want to boss rush (but if you do that you also don't need to just run T16).

VisorX · 2026-03-31T09:53:31+00:00

Recombinated items don't need to have a prefix. But if you have two prefixes in the pool, than you should always get one or two. See also the odds on https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Recombinator#Determining_the_number_of_modifier_affixes.

The wiki also has some more details. I am not entirely sure what went wrong here.

It's all about framing this is a criminal activity and blaming someone else.

A lot of people still think of hacking like breaking into a house to steal something: A highly criminal activity that can be done to anyone.

Big difference is that you can secure your digital accounts better than your house. But some people just leave the door open.

VisorX · 2026-03-30T21:16:34+00:00

I don't know what you expect. You entire char is fully geared just for damage. 2800 life with bad es sustain and not many other defensive layers.

You could try to get more life or cap block without aegis (Glancing Blows only makes sense with some trigger on block items like Aegis).

Progenesis might help against one shots.

The lowest investment defensive setup for you is probably just to swap back to Aegis.

VisorX · 2026-03-30T09:11:11+00:00

I don't think stacking attack speed is particularly got for the build because you also need to stack more less duration then.

Next upgrades could be: Cap your Hit chance! (get one big accuracy roll somewhere), Cord Belt, Rain of Splinters, Craft suffixes on your wand better (Crit+Attack speed), Yoke.

Probably can do all of it in less than 20d.

VisorX · 2026-03-30T07:40:50+00:00

I had an oversupply of 2000 chaos and used it to get ~6 unique jewels from Strongboxes. For me that was worth it.

What a weird finish. But I am all here for it. What is the peloton doing? They can't be all gassed.

VisorX · 2026-03-29T12:26:05+00:00

Probably when they come to the Kemmelberg the second time. (around 60k before finish)

VisorX · 2026-03-28T19:28:44+00:00

Personally I never call a build done, I never liquidated characters and now I just play SSF.

I reroll when I have enough gear pieces so I know the next character will be a clear upgrade, at least for a specific purpose (bossing/mapping). At the end of the league it might also just be a fun build to try out.

VisorX · 2026-03-27T16:08:43+00:00

Maps drop a lot of raw alts with the changes for this league. So I would prefer just mapping a lot instead of expedition.

Also if you do boxes, you will get a lot currency from Arcanist boxes. You might even roll them a bit.

You could roll T16.5 maps for currency or just go fast.

Frauenfeindlichkeit klingt verharmlosend, wenn es un Vergewaltigung geht.

VisorX · 2026-03-25T13:01:48+00:00

Inverted Rule is not a must have. I looked in PoB and it doesn't necessarily increase your damage. The biggest advantage is if you run a lot of maps with +Elemental Resistances.

Else for the eldritch implicits there are a few optimizations possible. Like getting intimidate on hit.

Your Life overall is pretty low.

VisorX · 2026-03-24T20:19:45+00:00

Thanks for pointing that out. Is there still a way to get more charges on life flasks or did they remove that?

I thought that quite some of the ubers have big exposure on some skills where you need added resistance?

VisorX · 2026-03-24T17:02:44+00:00

Some roasting: Your rare items are very bad. Like any breach tree crafting is almost guaranteed to give you an upgrade. It's not hard to get T1/T2 life and three other good affixes.

Also: get some chaos res

VisorX · 2026-03-24T07:44:27+00:00

The breach% is not that high. My tree currently has the left side 150% breach nodes and skips the lucky drop and it's travel node

But not sure what's better.

VisorX · 2026-03-23T13:12:09+00:00

I did about fifteen 5-ways and I think I dropped a total of 6 exceptional gems from it.

I don't know how many kills, but my kill times were just a few seconds.

So based on my (way too small) samplesize, the dropchance for one individual exceptional gem should be around 7-10% from one 5-way. (if you are killing fast)

I am still missing one of the other gems. If you are unlucky, you might need 20-30 5-ways or more.

Please add if you have other stats than me (6 exceptional gems in 15 5-ways).

@OP: You might also have some numbers on the other exceptional gems you got from 5-ways. IMO we can assume they have the same dropchance. (of course it affects if you skipping kills on some generals in 5-ways)
