I have never had a high dps seige axe sell for more than an exalt or two. I should have looked at it better. I put questionable stuff into a 10ex sell tab, then drop it to my 5ex and so on. I had it drop last night and didn't get any hits. Shortly after I log in I get a buyer. After I completed the trade I had a 20ex offer--had I typed sold before hitting accept...

How much did it sell for? I had something like that happen to me a couple leagues ago with a siege axe. I had it listed for whatever for like a week with not a single tell, dropped the price some, sold it, within a minute or two of selling it I get a whisper offering like triple what I had it originally listed for that never got me a tell and the guy spent like 15 minutes sending me messages about how the guy was a flipper and I scammed myself and if I divined it to perfect it would've had like 12 more dps and blah blah.

Shaper 2H sword with CoC affix.

CwC is generally garbage. It procs one spell every 0.35s. CoC procs a spell and then puts a 0.15s cool down on it. This means with multiple spells and enough attack speed, CoC easily outperforms CwC. There are some intangibles you must consider like CwC doesn't require enemy contact. But cycloning an entire map, yuck.

Corpse spells don't need as much scaling because they require corpses. My starter VD build has 5m single target.

What do you use as a starter for that?

10ex. it was t2 flat and t1 %phys. with open affixes... Had I not been distracted I would have price checked it better---the 10ex similar was a price fixer.

Guess I need to start researching builds. I started and only made it to act 3 and got busy. Probably just restart.

Can anyone suggest a guide site or YT video explaining the league mechanics from previous leagues? I haven't played PoE since prophecy and kind of at a lost with some of the added mechanics.

This one is decent for all but Betrayal and Blight. You'll have to watch league specific videos for those, but I completely ignore Betrayal missions as I couldn't stand that league.

There are a few items that aren't strictly day 1 starter worthy, but if you've built up ~30c of currency, you can switch to this built. I went from spectres to this after one weekend of casual play.

Thanks. I didn’t play past two nights due to family. Hitting it hard. Already have a sword. Coloring it is going to be annoying. And linking.

You need spell cascade to generate corpses and generate balls. It's a bigger damage boost than combustion, especially you can get the fire resist part from Armageddon Brand.

Assassin likely works for VD but you'll have to invest in aps. For DD, you definitely won't be able to hit the aps needed to keep three spells on 0.15s cool down in single target. That's why I didn't consider anyone but necro since DD is my end target. You cannot do spirit offering with VD, not enough corpses.

Elusive based VD assassin might be good, but I haven't properly investigated it. I'm more interested in the sustain from spirit offering.

Kythik and I ran the VD assassin last league. It’s easy and super powerful. Easiest UE kills I’ve had ever.

Note that the starter is for VD. I haven't vetted the more advanced DD build as I'm not there yet for currency.

That's one method. I'm personally not a fan of spamming alts, too boring. But finding one with just a CoC affix might not exist this league, so I might have to.

I have done this

Little mental lapses like this are the reason my HC strategy for success involves never playing for more than 5 hours straight.

I got a non linked xoph's nurture at league start, but it was playing hard to get so i bought a 6link one. Up to just now i've kept on throwing every fusing i got at my 1st one because i could use a weapon swap. In the end it took me 2.5k fusings. I've had some 100 fusing links before, so overall i can't complain but this is stupid lol.

I've only ever 6linked one item and it was for the achievement last league, I always just buy the 6L, fuck if I have to pay a "premium" on the "average" fusing costs, that shit's too RNG for me I don't want to be spending several days converting all the currency I loot into fusing to pop a few more rolls. On top of that I hate having to try to find a hillock to get the quality(plus if it's an expensive chest who knows if you're not gonna get scammed too), I could in theory put hillock right away in the right spot but that shit takes a while to setup since it's not research/intervention.

Can just sell jewellers/fusings too after that so you get the money back more or less anyway.
