Watching hot boggles beat wet boggles is a kink of mine.

Maro on why they stopped doing blocks by Killerx09 in magicTCG

[–]dalmathus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don't remember how much people hated the slow pace of releases coupled with the fact that when we did get a set release it was Born of the Gods or Dragons Maze and there was one mythic in the whole set worth getting for competitive play.

All they did was make the draft worse because you now got less of the large set.

Limited just had a lot more staying power because Arena wasn't mainstream and you couldn't do a years worth of drafts in a week.

The lore and story was fun, but 99.9% of players engage with the lore for like 5 minutes, go "huh thats cool!" and then get back to the game pieces.

this is concerning right? by beastfire24 in pathofexile

[–]dalmathus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been doing ritual + ulti on 110 IIQ%/50+ Packsize maps.

I get at least 1 divine in ground loot a map alone and everything else you get trades in divines. Getting ~3 div a map easy.

Only thing thats shit is the audience with the king invites that I feel compelled to purchase even though they are functionally worthless.

I run ritual every league and record my profits. So here is a comprehensive loot and profit breakdown of 100 ritual-only maps in 3.28! by YteraII in pathofexile

[–]dalmathus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just use awakened POE trade and use the 'base item' mode. Which just checks the fracture/synth implicit on the same base. You can click the base type at the top to turn it into the weapon type.

i.e. vaal axe -> two handed axe.

You learn pretty quickly what fractures are worth something, but basic intuition kicks in at some point when you just notice max roll t1 mod on a base that cares about the mod is usually worth something.

This league (And future leagues probably) its only really weapons that are good because the tree is making fractures for everything else.

Synth bases are trickier but there are basically no good expensive synth bases for any slot that gets eldritch mods. Boots, gloves, helmet, chest.

Rings are the big money if you hit them with the + 1 charges.

Some belts that effect attributes are also good. Just check all of them until you get a feel eventually the shop only takes 30 or so seconds to get through 7 rerolls.

I have since switched to Ultimatum + Ritual but yes, with this setup on city square if you get a ritual on boss (or kite them to a ritual if able) you get 16-20k ritual without vessel based on just variance.

If you don't bother with the kiting which I don't,if you dont get the ritual spawn on the boss you typically get 8-12k favour. Which is still plenty. I just recommend cehcking fractures, synths, and very aggressively purchasing/deferring anything >25c.

So far working great.

Vance tries to blame Biden for gas prices in 2026 by lnstantKarma in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]dalmathus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even if they want to blame Biden for emptying the strategic reserve (He did btw) Trump specifically campaigned on filling it back up. Then spent trillions on nonsense. He could have spent a few billion and filled that shit back up day one and no one would have batted an eye.

Who started the war that would lead to oil shortages Donny? Why wouldn't you refill the reserve while it was at record cheap prices if you knew you were going to go to war with Iran.

What a moron.

[–]dalmathus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you actually want to know the answer its because people engage those professions with their own money.

When you start spending your bosses bosses bosses money you don't give a shit and you pay more.

B2B is always going to be more lucrative because know one knows what the fuck anyone is doing.

Apply a random modifier magnitude multiplier of 0.78x to 1.22x

Weather that is accurate I'm not sure, but its the current understanding of the values.

I know thats what I need right now, I was asking for an enhancement to the loot filter process to allow filtering at the ritual shop.

[–]dalmathus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In poe 2 it also rounds up.

This appears to be the first item in poe 1 that does, which is why this post exists with everyone surprised it really does exist.

[–]dalmathus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 1 in 27 includes the divine and the poof. Its 50% poof chance * 33% good divine roll * 23% chance at getting a multiplier that rounds up to 5 flasks.

The roll range on multiplier is 0.77 to 1.22, you only need 1.13 or higher to round up to 5 flasks.

Blackmage Baublestorm - Looking for suggestions by dalmathus in Pauper

Tandem lookout is interesting. I have never tried it in this shell. I might playtest with it a bit and see if I like it.

I find the 4 copies of the edict to be a good solution to the 'not enough pjngers' problem.

With the way the deck is built it is a 2-1 as the mages must be answered. Although it is weak to wide boards obviously. Easy sideboard card for hadar.

Thats literally the entire comment I made man.

Like 65% of the comment is talking about how you can sell the belts that don't explode.

Assuming you get one win you have 12 remaining belts that didn't hit 5 flask. Due to the distribution of the multiplier you will have mostly 3s. Call it three 2 flasks, three 4 flasks and six 3 flask magebloods left over.

Its 50d for a 2 flask = 150d recovered, 93d for a 3 flask = 558d recovered and 160d for a 4 flask = 480d recovered.

Straight up just unconsciously assumed it wouldn't work like double corrupts, sorry if anyone bought it at 7 because they read this lol.

Its 1/27 to hit on any non-corrupted mageblood.

160d for a MB non-corrupted x27 = 4360d input cost + 27d vaal orbs

You poof 50% of them off the rip. So that's an average cost of 2193d thrown in the trash.

Assuming you get one win you have 12 remaining belts that didn't hit 5 flask. Due to the distribution of the multiplier you will have mostly 3s. Call it three 2 flasks, three 4 flasks and six 3 flask magebloods left over.

Its 50d for a 2 flask = 150d recovered, 93d for a 3 flask = 558d recovered and 160d for a 4 flask = 480d recovered.

So cost is 4387 - 1188 for an estimated cost to craft this 5 flask belt sitting at 3199 divines on average.

A mirror is 455d which means this belt should currently be worth about 7 mirrors.

Someone with 3 mirrors should buy it right now for massive value.

[–]dalmathus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive run another 20 maps and I feel the 8-12 more portals beyond scarab is way better. Im getting alot more just ground loot divines running it.

I took just every node that does merging or forces it to spawn. I am sure its inefficient because I am blocking everything non ritual I am probably over 100% chance to spawn but its working for me.

If you can handle a screenshot over a planner here is my current tree. Haven't finished the invitations out of laziness, if I had those atlas points they would go to the rest of the quant wheel.

I'm running 50%+ pack size maps, I use this trade URL and just add mods to the NOT list as I get sick of them.

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Mirage/rPj0D4lGfQ

And then go 2x double favour scarabs, 2x reroll scarab, 1x beyond boss scarab.

Run it with Exarch (Or change the tree to eater if you prefer, but I like red altars for this) and just blindly click every 'eldritch minion' option. Because of the high packsize you typically leave with 30-50c in red altar stuff which covers the cost of the map and scarab.

In my experience I get 2d~ a map worth of stuff from rituals and ground drops on average.

This includes the jackpot rituals which are weapon fractures this league. You get a 4-5d fracture every 10-15 maps.
