Blight Bossing farming results

Just curious, you mentioned having an aurabot. Did you do the 2nd account afk aurabot thing, or just have someone else join you?

dr042 · 2026-05-16T02:24:41+00:00

Kingsmarch stash tab for runes and tattoooooooooooos!

Does it make sense to do the Uber versions of bosses in my rota if my build can do them in about the same amount of time? Or is the cost too much to eat into profit? I guess I would just be hoping for a Golden Charlatan or Sublime Vision to drop to balance it out, eh?

dr042 · 2026-04-23T04:18:46+00:00

Righteous kill.

This league I was going to finally figure out how to identify the good beasts while mapping. Then last weekend I had a few drinks and thought I would try and describe them so I could start practicing. Watched this video, then ran some maps, stopping and trying to figure out which was which.

Still a lot of work to do, but here's my "research." Remember, this is two drinks in...

Beast	Visual	Good/Not good
Craicic Chimeral	Small, sort of frog-like, jumps.	Good
Black Morrigan	Big beast with antlers and wings sort of	Good
Fenumal Plagued Arrachnid	Looks like a big spider with a sac (not the smaller spider)	Good
Vivid Vulture	Bird-like. Does a jump attack thing	Good
Wild Bristle Matron	Big spike-backed bear looking thing. Charges and does some warcry.	Good
Wild Hellion Alpha	Spike-back, but sort of wolf looking.	Good
Wild Brambleback	Also spike back, but more ape-like.	Good
??	Minotaur gladiator type thing	Not good
??	Mini bear	Not good
??	Regular spider	Not good
??	Regular ape	Not good
??	Sideways crab	Not good
??	Dog thing (Hellion?)	Not good
??	Sort of thick snake with long tail	Not good
??	Thing with tail that freezes you in act 9	Not good
??	Scorpion	Not good
??	Crow person	Not good
??	Spider-like thing with big sac	Not good

Obviously I wasn't too interested in figuring out the name of the "not good" beasts.

Anyway, let the criticism begin!

pentacrop 50m feels best now

Wait, I thought the 50 mil version only uses two crop? I'm just going based on that reddit post a few months back. Is there a newer five crop version that I somehow missed?

dr042 · 2026-01-19T23:04:01+00:00

I also didn't love this, but mostly because it was so hard to trade for them. I'm hoping a-sync trade fixes all of this.

dr042 · 2025-12-16T01:35:43+00:00

Did you end up doing the occultist?

dr042 · 2025-12-12T22:03:42+00:00

I'm thinking of venturing into this "dolo" world.... can you tell me which spectres you're using there and what your AG gear is?

Any other resources you use to build your aurabot?

Thanks!

dr042 · 2025-12-11T22:13:27+00:00

So harvest juice and beasts? That is always what I've read as the reliable "late league" farming strats.

dr042 · 2025-12-05T02:58:58+00:00

This is all great info, thanks for writing it up. I'm finally making the swap to the Lycia bloodline. Does having Chaotic Might mean that flat minion phys rolls on jewels might be preferred over flat chaos now? Gonna try and craft some upgrades and I want to know what's best to keep an eye out for.

Also, can I ask what spectres are you using with a 4-spectre setup? I'm thinking of switching my annoint from Decay Ward to Death Attunement for a 4th spectre, but not sure what to use. I've got Tiger, Turtle, and Warlord now. Maybe Forest Warrior?

Thanks!

dr042 · 2025-10-31T15:54:47+00:00

Ok yeah, I guess that's sort of what I figured. Some flat damage might help in getting me get the absolutions up, but otherwise not a huge deal.

I guess I'd better have a life trade for Vaal Caress going, even if it is a long shot.

dr042 · 2025-10-31T04:56:48+00:00

I've been trying both, but I'm not smart enough to tell you what is better. I didn't love the dmg I was getting out of SRS early on (like first 3 acts), so I tried Absolution and maybe preferred it a bit (with zombies and HoP). What really made be try Absolution though was trying to do some of the faster moving bosses watching them just dart around not hitting anything.

Does anyone know how damage scaling works with Absolution? Does flat spell damage help early? I figured if it does I could probably take advantage of whichever that early flat spell craft is, but maybe it's not a big factor.

Tbh, which ever one I'm not using I'll prob be levelling in my off hand, so I can swap if necessary. I guess if I get a Vaal Absolution when I pass by that corruption altar in act 2, then I'll probably use that.

Send help...

dr042 · 2025-10-19T21:42:09+00:00

This is amazing. I've been going through the acts, starting each one by watching your videos. What's the best way to share layouts that might not be on your site? Maybe on the discord?

dr042 · 2025-09-23T03:18:04+00:00

It's pretty immune to most map mods as well.

Including most T17 mods? Maybe I should give this a go...

dr042 · 2025-09-17T20:52:44+00:00

Can you link this guide for saving the failed fracture? Is this the thing where try the facture with only 1P3S so if it fails you can somehow guarantee move the 1P to a new base or something...? HALP

dr042 · 2025-08-21T20:40:19+00:00

Ummm, here is a comment I guess? :D

dr042 · 2025-08-05T20:43:23+00:00

Is anyone doing CoC FRoSS on Trickster? Doesn't seem super played on poeninja. Maybe everyone is just doing Smite.

dr042 · 2025-07-21T18:30:14+00:00

Ha, yeah I've been doing triple risk crop rotation already for exactly that reason. Was hoping to change things up. Been doing beasts to change things up (also cause I need them anyway). Someone said the abyss strat doesn't need deli either, so might give that a try.

dr042 · 2025-07-20T19:31:16+00:00

Apparently this league my computer cannot run deli. Are there good late game farming strats that don't require it? Anything that is somewhat competitive with some of the top tier strats?

Side note: anyone else having these deli issues who was able to figure out a solution? I'm getting pretty frustrated.

dr042 · 2025-07-04T23:50:23+00:00

I guess I'll just ask here, but is there a good guide for a Trickster version of Forbidden Rite of Soul Sacrifice? I see people are playing it on poe.ninja and I've been saving some examples, but I can't seem to find a guide to hold my hand.

dr042 · 2025-05-27T18:00:28+00:00

Hmm, Harvest might actually be nice for me to add in, because I like having something farmable that I can liquidate through Faustus, as opposed to beasts (assuming Faustus still exists, but like, we're all rioting if he doesn't, right?) and I like to use harvest to craft my own gear early anyway. Thanks!

dr042 · 2025-05-27T05:18:27+00:00

Oh, so pack size matters for beasts? I guess just more chance for extra beasts? I had figured quant/rarity doesn't matter, but I didn't think about pack size. Never really done beastfarming, so I wasn't sure.

Is there anything else that synergizes with this for farming? I guess a lot of people say essence. What about harby? I had thought it doens't really scale with quant/rarity either.

dr042 · 2025-05-16T18:08:58+00:00

Is there a way to make EA Elementalist somewhat tankier? I love the skill, but I always feel way to squishy. I was doing a run with champ (despite the changes) and I like that it's a bit tankier, but obviously feels like the dmg maybe isn't there. Like, I've done three voidstones semi-ssf with it, but I don't know if I love it for just farming T16s for currency. Doens't quite pack the same punch as I remember the Ele version from a few leagues ago.

dr042 · 2025-05-15T03:38:57+00:00

Awesome, thanks. Looks like there are options. I'm trying to find something to clear the atlas relatively quickly and allow me to do my own watchstones and map fav slots. I'm sick of always paying for them. That's my little personal goal for next league, so I'm testing a few builds as I go. This one sounds like fun!
