I've watched almost all of your recent crafting videos and this one was definetely the most painful. I understand that crafting since the old days with traditional metacrafting we've come a long way, but this was still way too painful. Crafting in its current state even though it feels alot better since then but I hope next league GGG adresses some of the problems, we have all these methods but sometimes it still feels like you have no control over your item and you are just deleting currency. I hope some of the older horticrafts return to the game to make crafting more accessible and forgiving at top end.
Sir Lolcohol... I really REALLY appreciate you doing these crafting videos! I can understand that you don't want to release your own profit crafting strats, but i sometimes hear you worry about "ruining" the profit crafts of others... The thing is... you're literally talking about less than 1% of the player base whilst you are educating the other 99%. This is an obvious win for the poe community at large. The 1% that understand how to make currency really efficiently will be able to do so anyways, just not by the exact method you show. Don't feel sorry for em :) Sharing knowledge is caring, hoarding it is...not :D
@@Lolcohol Hmm.. Maybe you should feel bad. Im not taking about myself, rather my old self. Im sure there are lots of players that dont know how to make money EXCEPT a single profit craft and they keep repeating it. So yes, the experienced pro player base can as well find other methods but the noobies can/may get sad, which is the majority... This is Just a take from me, i am more experienced right now so im okay but it might be bad for many People UNLESS the craft requires atlas tens of divs to be deterministic (then it wont be profitable anymore but at that level, pro players can use other methods as well)
@@bedirhannahrideb6015 But here we enter the realm of "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime". If you already KNOW 1 craft, like you really know and understand how to do it and at what points to sell the "failed" project rather than rolling over them, but still for a profit and so on, then the bulk of the job is done. At that point you know how to fish and it takes very little research and/or additional knowledge to expand into profit crafts for each and every gear slot :)
I feel like Reforge/Keep is being saved to be introduced by a league down the line. It makes sense to have the interesting tools broken up across different content so there's a reason to engage with the different contents instead of keeping it all under one roof.
I have crafted even less this league i just farm for bases or just currency in general and sell it then use that currency to buy the best item i can. Its just a shame that a game that grew up based on crafting as lost its way like this. Hopefully POE2 brings its back to the older days or at least introduce more crafting ways to get us more deterministic results in crafting.
Hello Mr my favourite poe crafter. Just wanted to say, don't ever apologize anyone for the way you do your own things. Do what is the best and the most convenient for you, not for some random shit talkers from the web. You can even destroy 100 divines just because you feel like it and no one should give a fuck about your own business. A powerful video as always btw ❤
Nice one! GGs :)) Also again very weird perfect timing on upload. I just sat down to eat and then the bell hit. Are you stalking me? Not that i would complain tho ;p
Because in order to annul/scour he would have to do 2 divines again "suffixes cannot be changed" again, and slamming t1 es even after trash mod gives him extra chance to annul safely that trash mod and leave t1 es up after again locking suffixes and annul.
At least there won't be a synth base the league right after that complete kills the item... Edit: I also hate how demi left the game, it was really sad
I did Aura stacking this league, but different from others. I don't honestly think that helmet is worth it with a single T1 synth implicit. I mean, you are giving up two really nice implicit from eldritch. I just don't think 15% aura can replace two two eldritch implicits at 10x the cost. I don't think I would even switch to that helmet if it were comparably priced to a helmet with two desired eldritch implicit as it creates other deficits in the build. Just my opinion, but the DR (diminishing returns) on that helmet makes it probably the last upgrade on my list.
Also with fossils you cannot get the mana reservation mod from essence of loathing, glyphic fossil only gives a random corrupted essence mod ( essence of horror/delirium/hysteria/insanity)
Unpopular opinion: smite is overrated AF for the aura effect. Having to be in basically melee range playing spark is tedious and annoying. The uptime is terrible unless you invest into duration somehow, and that investment is way better spent on other things. Not to mention that if you’re playing an aura stacker that you really don’t need extra damage and cast speed, and just spamming spark more instead of getting close and worrying about smite uptime does the trick too. IMO just another thing that looks good in PoB but in practical use is more annoying than worth it.
You have no idea what you are talking about. I have over 1.5 billion legit dps smite armor stacker, killing ubers in 0.5 sec and tanking wave 30 simulacrum when i just put shield on and change 1 passive to glancing blows, im clearing entire screen in wave 30 simulacrum with 1 smite, you can check my latest video, and thats again with the shield where i have 3 + times less dmg...smite is insane my dude...no ramp up time, more tanky, no small hits, it pumps...you just probably played it incorrectly.

That last Exalt slam/Annul/Slam was amaizing!
It reminded me of Demmi... The good old times maaaaan I rly miss that guy.
how is your comment 10 days old the video just came out
@@aliosmankocakaplan2250 unlisted at first
I know where that helm is going :)
I miss him too. I watched all of his videos and seeing one of his videos pop up on my feed made my day :)
The relief when you hit that hybrid was big ^^

It's true! I shouldn't feel bad about it - skilled profit crafters will always find a new niche as metas shift and change

Some where in the world Chris is smiling, at how you crafted this
Damn, your annuls were REALLY on point with this
So many lucky ones :o
"Crafting is in good state. Everything is 50-50. You either get it or you don't." -Chris Wilson 😏
Good 50 50 🤣
Sporting both CoC and balls, Palsteron got Lolcohol heavily invested.
Sorry if you have answered this before, but why are all instances of double ff, like in Efficiency, missing on your items?
I downloaded the PoE font for a thumbnail a while ago and it broke my FFs in game haha
Haha I was gonna ask the same thing

Was this before the add remove was available in horticraft thinking you could save some divs to get t1 resistance
Dont you DARE tell me you used Aisling for this after I asked so many times. I'm gonna watch this when I'm back!
Haha I didn't 😅 and I recorded this almost two weeks ago!

Thank you! That's a very nice message ❤
Yes, wasting currency is one of the best parts of PoE imo
How come in all his videos the ff in suffixes is blacked out?
Nice one! GGs :))
Also again very weird perfect timing on upload. I just sat down to eat and then the bell hit. Are you stalking me?
Not that i would complain tho ;p
I'm upset about you using "Suffixes cannot be change" instead of the wild matron! :troll:
Genuinely curious: When you block mana and slam two exalts, why do you slam the second one when the first hits a trash mod?
Because in order to annul/scour he would have to do 2 divines again "suffixes cannot be changed" again, and slamming t1 es even after trash mod gives him extra chance to annul safely that trash mod and leave t1 es up after again locking suffixes and annul.
Yup! Exactly
Holy shit. That craft was painful
How are there comments sent 10 days ago? tf
I give Patrons early access to new videos so some of them watched and commented when I uploaded this last week :)
@@Lolcohol wtf damn. Love your video mister alcohol
I kinda liked old-school crafting (especially watching metacrafting videos) but it was really depressing having spent 200ex and get nothing.
Getting Painbane flashbacks. RIP Demigodking ('s poe streaming.)
Pain Bane was like this except 1000x worse haha. But I loved every one of those videos
At least there won't be a synth base the league right after that complete kills the item...
Edit: I also hate how demi left the game, it was really sad
Ah no wonder your RNG isn't as good as it should be. You guys TOUCH wood for luck there... Try knocking on wood instead, it's better for luck

as a fellow multi mirror stacker, wholeheartedly agree.
Is it not better to use dense fossils over harvest craft defense or am i missing something
fossils don't respect metamods
Fossils do not respect metamods, so that would override the suffixes cannot be changed.
Also with fossils you cannot get the mana reservation mod from essence of loathing, glyphic fossil only gives a random corrupted essence mod ( essence of horror/delirium/hysteria/insanity)
lucky annuls
Lolcohol, you have to accept that reforge keep prefixes/suffixes were removed intentionally: GGG wants you to occasionally have to yolo annul.
cool but it's still unfun
I know. I accept it but still hate it haha
Hooooows it lolcohol, this is first (4/4 for the algorythm)

@@doomzx8284 thanks for the long write up but I was referring to spark aura stacker, not smite armor stacker.
