One thing I have to say about starter builds, I should always err on the side of armor/life and not shield. I know how to build and play on the left and bottom of the tree. I know how to gear. I fall badly when it comes to the top and right of the tree. My kinetic blast necro is such a glass cannon that the dying suddenly is frustrating me. I know I just need more gear, but dying more than usual gets annoying.

Basically, old man has no patience.........

Asynch trading and small strats like Corrupted 6 mod jewels is just so easy. I've casually hit 10 or more 20c+ abyss jewels that way.

Combined with Harvest and I'm at about 12 div.

Then today the genesis tree spat out a max spell suppression 110 life set of gloves that sold for 12 div. Oh, and one crazy abyss jewel went for a div.

Got my build going, clearing the atlas, zero worthwile drops in maps in 4 hours of mapping.

I'm done. Not a crafter enjoyer, I want the Tinks in maps to stay interested. Mechanics was nice but the loot is not there for me.

Anno 117 soon!
Right there with you and I didn't even finish my atlas. Just dropped a few red maps but still have some yellows to finish but I said fuck this.

I feel like there's a lot of people that are going to do the same thing as soon as they make it to mapping.

I should have also chose a better build but it's decent enough for the maps I'm in I just don't like spending a few hours and getting nothing for it.

Edit: I know I can get lucky with decent drops, but not hearing the tink sound like EVER is enough to make me throw in the towel. Sorry, I'm juvenile, just isn't the same without it. 🤣

This genesis tree might not be the most GG item printer they've ever introduced, but its by far the best "progressive" item printer they've ever made. It is so ridiculously easy to get good items to get into end game that its almost sinful.

Graft me daddy.

It's true, I haven't been able to play much this league but every single armour piece + my weapon in this build was created directly from the graft tree (none of the jewelry was, that's too RNG since bases matter and can't be targeted)


And was all created in less than 30 hours total time played. And a lot of that stuff replaced other GG stuff and I have some GG fractured items in my stash from the tree awaiting proper crafting currency.

EDIT: Example, if my current armour wasn't 6linked and I had a bit more crafting currency I'd craft on this and then 6l it over my current armour (also spit out by the tree)

Has anyone tried using the shards in graft currencies? I'm wondering if its kind of like harbinger where I'll get higher chances for annuls and gg drops of fractures? Would be a nice way to target those currencies instead of doing harbinger, which I hate.

EDIT: To clarify I don't mean the graft currencies you use on grafts. I meant the genesis tree currency branch. I worded that horribly.

Its probably the only way to get the tree to drop fracturing shards and possibly mirror shards, and if you get lucky with the full stack node... welp. Yea basically harbinger.

TL:DR Breach rares give more loot
Some more foulborn uniques in
Looking at Breach fucking up loot stuff
Looking to increase loot for juicers

I easily completed a T16 Hive today and it dropped a stupid amount of maps and other loot. Adding all those additonal clickables makes it a fun little mini game since you know you have a chance now!
