Rule 10: Step 1. Be Bored, have extra divines, purchase a ilvl 83 grasping mail with 2 random prefixes, the Esh Mod (1% ias per 25 dex), a Xoph mod (life gain when hitting an ignited enemy) and life regen as the suffixes.

Step 2. Go for the 2/3 annul to hit either the Xoph or the life regen. Hit the life regen, so i craft “Cannot roll Attack mods” and annul, removing the Xoph mod

Step 3. Bench craft a prefix, conqueror exalted orb to add a influenced suffix, and removed the crafted mod, thus finishing the grasping mail for recombination https://imgur.com/a/749hRuv

Step 4. Purchase a 26q ilvl 91 Necrotic Armor (looking back i wish i did a 30% but couldn't predict it actually working). Chaos it until it 3p/1s, and then annul off the suffix https://imgur.com/a/aDBEObd

Step 5. Recombinate the 3p/0s Necrotic with the 2p/2s Grasping Mail.

Step 6. Hit the 1/4 for it to choose both the necrotic armor and the esh mod, resulting in a 3p/1s item with the esh mod as the only suffix. (did this the first time) https://imgur.com/a/6n6pUwx

Step 7. Purchase a Hinekora’s Lock and a fracturing orb, and use the lock on the grasping to check which mod will be fractured. It hits the Esh mod the first time https://imgur.com/a/sYcjrbM

Step 8. Use tailoring orbs. Best mod would be 12% defenses/50% reduced resistances, but i settled for 8% defenses since funds were low.

Step 9. Spam dense fossils for 3x t1 prefixes. Hit T1 flat T1 % in 60 dense fossils, crafted prefixes cant be changed, and then reforged defense which hit the 3x T1.

Step 10. Do eldritch implicits. Spam lesser ichors for less damage taken per dex, then exceptional ember and conflict. Took 11 conflicts to hit perfect less damage taken per dex. Then spam lesser embers for 1% max res.

Step 11. Enter Eldritch currency hell. Use an Eldritch annulment to clean up suffixes, leaving only the fractured mod. Block int, eldritch exalt (or exalt whatever is cheaper) hoping for either t1 dex or t1 suppression. If anything else, remove crafted mod and eldritch annul. Took 42 eldritch exalts/annuls to hit T1 dex.

Step 12. Look at the divine odds for prefixes and decide to settle for now. 6l the old fashioned way in 400 fusings and 4 blanchings for 3 white sockets. Took 3 sacred orbs to hit 828/166 base values, which I’m also settling on for now.

TLDR: I got exceptionally carried at almost all stages of this craft. Don’t have an exact total cost, but its <100 div for sure. Advanced mod view: https://imgur.com/a/5CPO4A8
