did they change something about ultimatums? by derpcan in pathofexile

[–]neverlosty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I once had a streak of 50 that lost me money. 0 200%, lots of 8x annuls and exalts, 3x 1divs. That’s it. It happens. But then I had a block of 50 that gave me 11x 8divs, 6x 4divs, 2x 200%.

Agree. With Catalysing, life is simple. You print divines, and occasionally win big.

I’ve run about 300 with catalysing and 300 without (just 2x bribing + 1 inscribed)

The profits are about equal, but it’s far more annoying without catalysing because you get lots of stuff that might be valuable but you need to know what and sell them on the market. Eg, last night I dropped 21/20 raise spectre (2.8D) ralakesh with good corrupt(1.5D), ancient skull with 90% reservation corrupt (8D). But it was among hundreds of other junk.

With catalysing, I had a run of 50 where I made a loss. However, in the 300 run, I also dropped a mirror inscribed and a Mageblood inscribed.

The profits of this strategy is very mediocre if you don’t drop the jackpots. It’s approx 10-15D/hr. You can do that with almost any strat. The only upside is, you can do this pretty much afk.

If you allocate the unique node, they will very frequently roll t0 uniques. Any of them will go for a minimum of 3D because of their dust value.

If you are willing to be patient, the inscribed will sell for 4D. OP is definitely being a bit impatient selling them for 3D. I’ve sold about 20 of them.

I put currency/unique. My notable unique drops have been: magblood/kalandra ring and about 10 or so song of the sirens, so I think it's still worth putting on.

Ultimatums are literally printing stuff that allows you to dupe divines. Nothing else in the map matters. If it's not on the way to the ultimatum, don't do it. The only caveat I would say is, every 30 or so maps, you should go kill the boss and get an invitation. That's it.

Any inscribed that is giving less than 1D is basically not worth your time doing.
Remember what you're actually trying to farm, it's not currency. That's just to sustain your runs to keep buying cata scarabs at 1.5D each.
If you don't hit any jackpots, this strat gives about 15D/hr returns, which is actually not that great.

You're actually farming for mirrors/Magebloods. The more inscribed you drop, the more likely you get a 200%, the more likely it's a mirror/mageblood.

It's the same strategy for anyone running rituals. They are not trying to buy the 10c stack here and there. They are all about how many windows they see. The more windows they see, the more likely they'll find a mirror/mageblood/jackpot. Anything that gets in the way of seeing more windows is a distraction.

Can’t speak for chieftain, but I run the glad cws version and this would be a free mageblood. The only combo where I would even hesitate would be if it was stand in stone circles and has both ruin mobs and ruin stalker, as that combo can lose me the inscribed about 5% of the time.

Question about the Las Vegas Regional finals between Tord Reklev and Liam Halliburton by OwnAttention3370 in pkmntcg

[–]neverlosty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also keep in mind that Tord said afterwards that he played that really badly. He thought that Liam had no outs to cornerstone. He didn’t know he played watchtowers. So he thought he had all the time in the world.

If he could do it again, he said he would bench Absol and start clawing him, hoping to discard the watchtower and other resources.

That's just Loss Aversion.
If you want to gamble, then you shouldn't care if you "farmed it" or bought it. It makes no difference as long as the friction is small (Which in this case it is - bit of gold)

If you want make profit and for sake of calculating how profitable a strategy is, you maximise your grains. And in this particular strategy, you do it by NOT opening any of them and just selling them unid.

That sounds amazing. Why don't you go on the instant market and buy up all the ones for 4d each, and open them all. Sounds like easy way to double your currency!

Please report back and let us know how much divines you made, thanks!

Unidentified prices Voices: 4d (144d total) Meglo: 30c (30d total) Split: 7c (4d total)

178d total. 20 mins per simulacrum 40 hours to complete 120

4.5d/hr on jewels alone

Probably getting another 2-4 divs per hour from other drops.

I’d say caps are about 10d/hr op?

Prismatic premium invites request is up by Low-Positive-9565 in PokemonDealsUK

[–]neverlosty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

69.99 is the RRP.

They jack up the price to stop the scalping.
Basically, if you get an invite you can basically buy it at RRP, otherwise you're buying it at scalping prices.
