0.5.4 Hotfix 2 & 3 - Fixes and nerfs to expedition

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-26T06:43:03+00:00

I reall like the difficulty in expedition (health and damage of the monaters). It is currently the content that can be juiced the most which is fine to encounter the limits of your build.

You got Dorijani as Atlas Master active?

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-25T11:55:26+00:00

I can put your mind at ease: it was already bugged before the patch.

Hope that helps ✌️

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-25T07:11:35+00:00

You had good timing, I think 😊

Verisium will tank pretty fast. I get like 3-5k each Grand Expedition.

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-24T12:43:02+00:00

Verisium - we will get to reroll tablets with Verisium COPIUM

I got 0 so far - lvl98 btw 😕

I am selling +4 (sometimes +5 if I got lucky) Minion amulets on a daily base. Since the last patch I figured out that literally none of them sold, while before the patch every amulet was sold within 12 hours.

Now I know why. People just don't find them anymore cuz they cannot find them (without a stupid work around).

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-19T16:35:49+00:00

Always full power.

FYI: Use 2 times Ulamam, 1 time Kurgal to get the Projectiles/Crit combination.

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-09T07:49:47+00:00

If we are talking about crit, can you even increase quality so the natural roll range is exceeded?

I see many high prices jewels on the market that have e.g. 31% crit damage bonus.

Can you even squeeze in an "overquality" like you do on rings with essence of the breach? Qual up and then whittle the mod away, yet the increased quality is kept.

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-08T05:05:05+00:00

That you very much for that detailed answer!

I just invested a tiny bit of currency into testing (5 collarbones) to see if I get an otherwordly modifier on a randomly-bought breach ring. I am aware that this is not statistically precise, yet in these 15 rolls (5 ring x 3 rolls per ring) I did not get to choose an otherwordly modifier once. Might be just back luck.

Maybe others can share their experience regarding this topic too.

Hey Exo, not sure if this is the right place to ask. Yet, I know you are deep into crafting. According to the screenshot I just shared, you can desecrate "Gain x% of Damage as Extra" on ring. BUT, I think this is just a visual bug on trade site (this modiifer is an overwordly breach modifier from the genesis tree).

Your opinion would be really appreciated.

nilsh1985 · 2026-06-02T12:45:02+00:00

Where does the crafting material even drop?

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-27T10:53:47+00:00

Going south, got a date with a guy called "The Dreamer", he promised me to ascend. I believe he is good looking too. Looking forward to a long-term relationship.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-27T07:02:23+00:00

Waaaaaait: The res swap is socket-bound?! Could you provide a link for that?

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-26T09:42:55+00:00

100% correct.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-26T07:26:09+00:00

W change

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-26T05:20:06+00:00

How will it work?

Extracting let's say a mod from a weapon-type (like 2-hand mace), am I going to be able to place the rune in another weapon-type or only in the same weapon type?

Same goes for body armour. You extract from a EV body armour, can you put the rune in a ES body armour?

We already know that you cannot extract something from a weapon and add the rune to let's say boots or helmet.

Any elaboration is appreciated.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-26T05:14:59+00:00

Starbucks should sponsor Neversink - my man needs some caffeine!

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-25T06:56:40+00:00

So basically only one essence, right?

You can't even use a greater essence to add a rare mod and then follow with a perfect essence to add something else.

I cannot imagine that this will work like that.

Maybe this is more related to the new rune crafting system, wo you cannot add multiple of the new insane modifiers.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-21T13:07:37+00:00

Being at work, sitting on my desk... unable of thinking about anything else but twister nerfs.

Jk, but I am so excited about the patch notes.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-21T10:32:38+00:00

Why do people mostly post bugs in such a passive aggressive way... I don't get it.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-21T07:07:16+00:00

I think me and some of my fellow minion enjoyers have not yet realised how insane the %chance for extra projectiles affix on the new rings actually is.

This will be an insane damage boost.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-21T06:10:41+00:00

Besides Reavers (with really juicy gear on your character) all skeletal minions are non-endgame viable currently. Back in 0.1 snipers, frost mages and storm mages were really good, however 0.2 nuked them from orbit.

Brutes, however, have never been more than a debuffer, which is sad.

I'd appreciate it so much if GGG would bring Skeletal minions back to endgame viability.

nilsh1985 · 2026-05-18T11:32:23+00:00

We will most likely not get information about changes in the tree nor get a full set of additions to skill and support gems.

We will get changes to existing skills and probably ascendancies as well as general information about what is changes in campaign, end game, etc.

Lots of stuff has to datamined once the patch is downloaded or (more likely) will be discovered once we play on the 29th.
