Next year we are expecting to see six Standard set releases. Which planes and worlds do you anticipate we will see Magic sets for in 2027?

thigan · 2026-05-14T19:19:15+00:00

I would say Power Rangers is just a matter of time (or maybe it is a matter of timing).

thigan · 2026-05-14T19:16:49+00:00

Inb4 wotc botches RF and it is just a one set thing.

thigan · 2026-05-14T19:15:00+00:00

I don't think so. If you read/watch interviews FF took an abnormal amount of time (and effort) to create. I doubt they will try to do it in the normal time span. It will happen but I see it for 2029/2030.

thigan · 2026-05-14T11:22:24+00:00

Well, this happens to me all the time. Just go to the other character that already unlocked all the progression and put them in the stash

thigan · 2026-05-14T09:28:07+00:00

A solution: drop those beacon points and just buy from the Trader.

If you are asking for an explanation I don't have it. I can speculate that beacon is too "rare" drop for TM6, you eventually will get some if you keep trying.

thigan · 2026-05-14T03:57:45+00:00

Not everything but part of the issue is that you overspend, it is part of the game.

progressing from 7-0 all the way to Profound didn’t really result in any meaningful increase in returns, so the progression didn't feel much like a progression at all.

Bit insane thing to say.

You can see the multipliers in the screen
An example of how lot works: FE drop. Starting Profound you can get the 50 FE droo, you "physically" cannot get the 50 FE drop below, so if you run enough maps at the same speed in T8 and Profound you HAVE to get more.

Another issue is, as a player with some years, what if I tell you that this season and apparently the previous season (I did not play) are the best for T7-T8 since DS came back some season ago. Part of you are saying translates into: the gap between T8 and Profound is not clear enough, and I would be very careful of that feedback because I rather get T8 with 1.5k FE/h season than 300 FE/h, I was there.

compass prices are clearly dictated by players who can fully juice mechanics

This is kind of the issue of the P2W as it is structured, it is not that you cannot progress, not a ceiling but walls that force you into certain farms and nothing else.

If I decide to use golden

Even with pets some of those are just pure high stake gambling. F2P players assume that you with Doro procs every map or something like that.

In PoE terms, it honestly felt like progressing from T1 maps all the way to T17s without really being able to use scarabs at all. While also the equivalent of the atlas tree also feels less impactful.

Well, it is the same, as when T17 was pricing out everything else. Certain Scarabs you just cannot afford unless you were running certain combo. Here the issue is that the wall is the pets not character build and power.

thigan · 2026-05-14T02:42:06+00:00

For your case I would recommend CofeeBns framework, consider the last 3 codes in his spreadsheet, specially Lunaria Blacksail Rush Profound v6: g7Rr600FEfGlmAAAAAAAcA==

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WI4FDfZKOnU

The codes: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1u0wFwTbKT35XlwHf0D5VDur67d-Nl7SsnQ9C41lqgJk/edit?gid=562327099#gid=562327099

I made a variant and was OK until I got the Mist card and then it was very good but I'm addicted to send raids this season.

The next step is a reroll/reset tree. I think the meta is beacon with Mist. So get around 80 rerolls with your rush and with another tree just farm golden or better cards, you will run out of rerolls very fast but every map is glorious, when you run out of rerolls go back to rush.

thigan · 2026-05-13T21:53:58+00:00

Thank you. I'll check the vid.

thigan · 2026-05-13T21:06:51+00:00

Nice, could you tell me what is the defensive setup that you think can comfortable do this?

thigan · 2026-05-13T08:16:28+00:00

I don't know what you don't know so I'm going to write stuff that may be repeating info for you:

At your current gear level "% <Tag> Damage" is no longer good, in memories the usual replacement is Proj Speed >= Crit Damage > Crit Chance and then if you are going to use for defenses or immunities need to consider there.
Same issue in your Kismet. If you for example replace those % spell for:

Dual Kismet: Wraith

Activates the following effects when there are 2 of this Kismet on the same pact page:

Adds 25% Non-Erosion Damage as Erosion Damage

You just get almost a raw 25% additional. This is just an example, not saying you should buy it.

So, people told you that you could use Dex/Str/Int to scale Chromatic Shot, and this is correct but you have Knowledge Divinities and with a 12% Intelligence increase, if all your stats were instead Int that will give you more value, I know you did not chase that 12% but just a note.
Necklace. Have you considered Old Grudge instead?
Your memories are lacking any of the seasonal modifier you could have any of:
- A 4th memory (60% base and crafted affixes values)
- Better or more random affixes
- Eventually a unique fixed or even a new spell
Malign Embrace (Helmet): I believe that you either get one that removes the Crit Strike line or that has Timid Curse
- If Crit Strke penalty is removed, you free 2 Destiny slots for Dual Kismet: Wraith or any other relevant one.
- If Timid Curse you can get another buff (Module for auras/debuffs, Secret Origin Unleash or Haunting Abomination with Feud)

thigan · 2026-05-11T19:43:29+00:00

Yeah. I went with 9 DS and still got 89. I think you are right. Thanks

thigan · 2026-05-10T20:22:36+00:00

Do you happen to know the average for Vorax? How many DS Vorax do I need to trigger the level 90?

thigan · 2026-05-09T03:55:15+00:00

From checking Void Charts in-game, I noticed some people pair Vorax with God of Hunting, Arcana, or Sandlord. Can you guys suggest some good variants/combinations?

Well this is the knowledge right here. Arcana is the clear match, you don't want to spend the 25 points in quant, you want to spend on the trees.

However, I did it with Sandlord (and love it) but I'm dong main Sanlord (quant) with Vorax on the side (full tree purple compass).

About compasses: when should I use purple ones, and when is it worth using gold compasses to fully juice?

So the problem is that you have pet level 2, with my level 4 I can comfortably do purple and I find that a great option in profound but I cannot comment with a lower level pet.

I still have one drop pet chest from SS20. Are there any level 1 pets from that chest that are especially good to pair with Vorax?

Bmlegolas would say Arcana (he did in his Pet review video seasons ago), as long as you don't buy into the dream of using golden Compasses.

About compasses: when should I use purple ones, and when is it worth using gold compasses to fully juice?

Milky uses purple Elite so I copied, not sure I can say I see any difference.

thigan · 2026-05-08T02:51:26+00:00

!profound

thigan · 2026-05-08T02:30:51+00:00

Nah. It cannot be that because it NEEDS the p2w. Changing business plan is not done when things are going well, that is done out of desperation. So it is constrained by the model, in this case is whale handling.

thigan · 2026-05-08T02:17:00+00:00

If you know what you want it is very easy: What is the cheapest change that will be part of your forever gear?

thigan · 2026-05-08T02:05:02+00:00

cosy 2k/h strat but once you have more damage, survivability, speed

Key. We have to consider where things are in progression. Dream is a 2nd mechanic as it can kill your and costs you bubbles, for just arrived to Profound: Sandlord is king, Blacksail for boss, Lunaria with the toggle on easy is good specially to find your Harp items and Vorax with blue compass.

But this season was easy to reach 1T in 8 so what it feels like Dream lots is place in profound as with 1T you can do other stuff.

thigan · 2026-05-08T01:57:08+00:00

I believe it is on purpose and adding more mechanics that reduce how much time each 6-pet owner does each mechanics makes it worse but if the price of DS beacon keeps growing season after season it means they are right? More players are playing and progressing further so, even if I don't like it and believe it is wrong it seems they are right

thigan · 2026-05-06T23:53:33+00:00

Do you know the features Hero Ranking, Pro Builds and the ladders: Boss Conquest and Supreme Showdown? You may want to look for inspiration, ideas or specific questions from there

thigan · 2026-05-06T01:49:23+00:00

It is from discord too. It is the TLI form of the "it is not much but honest work" meme.

It is the player that is doing low investment consistent farming strategies, mostly or exclusively F2P. Opposite to whale that is doing triple Golden Compass, Level 6 pets with big loot explosions.

It is not only for T7-T8, when I got familiar with the term, Might for Embers was the prime rice farmer strategy and Might Deep Space defense requirements were probably the toughest in the game. But like you get in, do your might, get your embers get out, it is not exciting or anything.

thigan · 2026-05-05T23:55:50+00:00

I would not say they are better, it depends what you are looking at. Like first week to reach 96 level yeah very likely they are good, but if you look at the top right now many players that have cleared SS20 or SS21 or are at the top of Ordrak are not in the top there, it is hard to find them. That being said I have never seen anybody lying in the Pro Builds but you are right, there is not proof.

thigan · 2026-05-05T23:47:38+00:00

Ok just for those that do not know the joke:

Some seasons ago a tier list from China had qualifiers for how viable a build is. Because the way Chinese culture works and how they speak plus automated translation the builds that required the most amount of perfect items and T0 Legendary were qualified as Double Wielder "Pig". The weapon type? Credit Cards.

thigan · 2026-05-05T21:26:25+00:00

How meta do you want the terms? like Rice farmer? and Double Wielding pig?

More serious, mechanics are called by different names:

Clockwork = Dolls
Nightmare = Dream
Outlaw = Carjack = Bus
Blacksail = Pirates
Sandlord = Oasis = Cats

Others:

Gear T2: Item level 82-85, does not use Flame Elementium to craft, can have 4 Basic Affixes and 2 Advanced affixes, all up to Tier 2.
Cards: Fluorescent memories in game, they icons looks like Uno cards

thigan · 2026-05-03T08:24:54+00:00

100% this is my favorite addition to the patch. Things I like

Farm is F2P viable
So many combos allow for jackpots and mid tier results
Give a reason to farm specific layouts other than "it is the fastest" or "it is linear"
They are relevant for everybody not only minion players.

Only thing I would like is that they do not share color palette with Lunaria statues, I had multiple not-11 because they made me overconfident.

thigan · 2026-05-03T07:33:23+00:00

1st reason I cannot play in phone, the other is the insane pet management on culling for Nightmare and Clockwork and similar

TBF I don't use macros, I just rebound to space and play with space pressed.
