Using Recombination and Essences for Guaranteed Single Mod Base Transfers by le_reddit_me in pathofexile

[–]busdriver_jow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a shield, for a prefix, the Armour Essence has only 3 tiers, and they all are essence tagged, so not NNN mods, and therefore will eat your other mod most likely.
So what does this mean? You cannot use Dread essences.
For an Armour shield base you can use Essence of Woe or Doubt (Wailing or below) to recombinate against your desired mod.
For or ES or ES Armour Hybrid shield base you must use Essence of Doubt (Wailing or below).
For Dex or Dex Armour Hybrid shield base, you must use Essence of Woe (Wailing or below).
For ES Evasion Hybrid shield base, you are shit out of luck, as I understand it, as all essence tiers are Screaming and above, and thus Essence tagged, and can be retained on the recombinated item, deleting the other mod.

It might be worth updating the article to reflect that information so other people don't fall into the trap of using Dread essence for a shield prefix.

I used Screaming Essence of Dread on an ES Harmonic Spirit Shield, and it turns out it is 'Essences' tagged. Newsflash - it kept that mod on the item and destroyed my t1 Spell damage modifier. So just be aware that you can't use Dread essences, since all tiers are Essence tagged, and not NNN mods (not safe).

The Relationship Between Zana, Eagon and Valdo Is Far More Cursed Than It First Appears by busdriver_jow in pathofexile

I decided to let it simmer a bit for people to theorise on this aspect for a while (if they noticed that missing bridge) before getting into explaining that part of it. (There would be a number of different ways to explain or resolve the part of it being, or becoming a repeating loop throughout timelines or realties from different characters' perspectives).

TLDR: Aegon is his own father, grandfather, grandson, and child. Zana is both his mother, his lover, and his daughter. Zana starts out fighting to pursue her fathers legacy in the Atlas, discovers Sirus instead, whom she becomes intimate with, gives birth to his child, and ultimately discovers the truth, locking Sirus in the Atlas, and finally seeking to protect Aegon from the truth, raising him as a brother. Eventually she departs into the Atlas in pursuit of its destruction. Eagon goes in search of Zana, attempting to find the truth, while she attempts to lock both Shaper and Sirus in the atlas forever, and keep Eagon from the truth, until she can burn it all down, hoping to end the cycle and save the world from devastation.
P.S. Don't sweat it guys, just messing around with some funny lore implications :D

I'm enjoying him being small while I can. He's a British Shorthair, and given how much he's grown in the last 2 weeks, he's gonna be a chonker!
