So I did a T15 Vaal City with +2 monster levels and cleared the map, only to go to the Viper boss and get glitched behind the guards with her at like 25%, health.
No option to restart at checkpoint, and relogging just places me in the same spot. Is there anything I can do? If I wait out the instance reset will I be good?
Not really worried about the boss loot or whatever, but this shit sucks......have logged off for 10 mins and went back in but I guess it wasnt long enough. I think I hate this boss more in maps than I did initially in the campaign!!!!

There's no instance reset for maps. And no way to fix glitched boss arenas either that I know of. Won't help you now, but they've been slowly fixing them, last patch took care of Blooming Field and Razed Fields but I guess there's still more buggy ones.

I believe there's a way in character select to teleport character to town. The old way to do this was hold control on selecting a character (I think?) but because of this specific boss arena type bug they added a fix a few weeks ago.
"Added a button to the character selection screen to have your character be logged into town/hideout instead of the last area. This is identical to the existing behaviour where you can Ctrl + Click on the login button."
I'll have to check for that next time......instance reset finally and I just had to re-clear without a boss to pass the map. Shit was gay though.
Ziz talked about that a few streams ago, showed his map and several nodes where the map is bugged. The "road" goes under nodes sometimes, so it looks like they are connected, but are not. It's a known issue he hopes they will get to soon

So I decided to use up some of the thousands of breach splinters I've been amassing, and this dropped...
Thoughts on how to finish it for max value? Really sucks that it hit fire and cold rather than lightning, but it's still worth a shitload if the last two affixes hit high tier resists.
Homogenizing won't work, the attack tags could cause it to hit leech. I'm thinking the best option would be to catalyze it to 40% using fire or cold, them slam it with a perfect exalt orb using catalyzing+greater exaltation omens. In theory that should force it to roll fire/cold res for the first one and then all that's left is all res for the second.
The only other alternative I can think of is to catalyze with chaos then use a perfect exalt with just catalyzing exaltation, no greater. Then desecrate it with a ulaman omen to hopefully guarantee a lightning+chaos res roll within two tries. Downsides here are that I have no idea if 40% catalyst is enough to make a chaos res roll a sure thing, and even if it does work a perfect exalt can still hit as low as 16% chaos res. A ring with 40% chaos res and ~16% lightning res would be worth a lot; not sure about one that only hits, say, 30% chaos and 13% lightning.

Ahhhhh crafting! I still haven't maxxed my resistances at level 79!!! If only I had the energy to research crafting! Ell o ell!

Check the reddit thread, they put together some decent craft guides. I found a craft guide for rings that got me T1 res T1 all res and then a res/chaos and it only cost me a div in materials

All I can say is, Catalyzing omen is a fucking lie. I put 40% fire mods on that ring and slammed it with a perfect exalt + greater exaltation and it hit cold res and dex. Streamers are all like "it hits every time" in their guides... yeah, like hell it does.
I also suspect that greater exaltation is a trap too, because this is not the first time (more like fourth or fifth) that the second roll from it has behaved like it was totally random. I am very skeptical about the claims that it uses other omens twice too. I knew I should have just slammed it once and then done the lightning + chaos desecration, which actually IS a sure thing.

I'm playing this, high DPS, good screen clear, and good tank/sustain
I tweaked the passive tree a little and stayed on the left side instead of going right for the extra crit just cuz I like being a little tankier
Been doing the chaotic rarity / desecrate to 5 mod maps and been consistently getting 125+ rarity maps, and loot still feels real bad.
Aside from a very occasional div / annul, the tiered rares always have the worst mods on the sought after ones, and basically all exceptional bases are garbage.
Seems like crafting is where it's at, but I lack both the currency as well as the knowledge, but I will absolutely try and emulate some videos if I ever land a decent drop.

I think it all comes down to the inability to get T16 maps. They are way too goddamn rare when you corrupt your waystones. Not to mention that for every 1 you get it seems like you ruin 7-8 maps by either knocking them down to T14 or by rerolling all the affixes to garbage. It's so bad I've given up on vaaling any myself. When I have three tower, high iiq maps to do I just search for +monster elemental resists and not chilled ground, -ES recovery, or marked for death. In the long run it's cheaper and easier because I know it's going to be cleared with little/no risk of dying.
Plus for every small cluster of maps that are really worth doing fully juiced like that you have to clear dozens of garbage maps trying to find the next spot (and setting up the towers now costs about a divine each). Beating a dead horse on that one though; everyone's been saying the same thing about the atlas/tower slog since 0.1.

I do about 50 T15/T16 juiced maps in a session with 100+ waystone rarity, 100+ rarity on gear and as much quant as I can get. I'd say it feels like I average 1/2-1 div a map, but then I get a banger like 1-20 or so where I get 5-10 div drops in currency through omens mostly. I don't pick up much of anything though unless I know it is already worth money without identifying and maybe small uniques for chance shards. I'd rather blast than ID rares.

With you 100% on that one. It really frustrating how much filterblade fights you when you want to delete all rare and most magic drops regardless of the stupid tier system. The only thing I care about seeing are the really valuable i82 white bases (and all white heavy belts).

Yeah I guess it isnt terrible once you're all setup with a decent tower overlap and a bunch of high rarity T16s, but getting there is a pita. Hoping to get to a point where I can just buy the maps and play the game, but I still have a ton of work to do on my gear.

Endless atlas and towers just suck. Especially after experiencing the endgame of POE1. I just want to set up a strategy and run the maps I like to farm for currency or drops. Everything about the endgame is tedious. I got one nice drop that sold for 12 div and the rest has been a slog. Map layouts arent helping either.
