Starts out this video with the feels. Swapped from wands to this and having a much better time. Tanky as fuck.
Guess you're right, probably just not used to being back in POE1 mode and forgot how strong the atlas can be......still have a lot of points in kirac missons and +map drops as well.spend your few chaos on gear that has HP+resists.If you're capped out on those you spend money on whatever is your biggest DPS upgrade - bow, wand, weapon, 6 link chest, etc.
You can do red maps on 20 chaos of resist gear with nearly any build.
The main thing you want to do is fill out your atlas, those nodes juicing the league content are what will ultimately pay off currency-wise. there's no way you can't get 50 atlas points for the second atlas tree.
Rush to the +20 atlas points node on your first tree if you need maps, or if you feel you're good on sustain and need some money just to get those basic upgrades, swap the second tree to something like harvest, expedition, blight, or something else with consistent drops instead of fewer, bigger drops (like harbinger, Delirium, and to some extent ritual).
get your first 4-way maven invitation to unlock the 5th map device slot, and if you need to, buy a carry for the 6th slot or ask in guildchat for someone to invite you. once you have 6 map slots you can do stacked deck farming if your build can handle absolutely nothing else - that's a divine every 2-3 maps.
Since when did they change (or has it always been like this) you can't reforge a prefix cannot be changed meta mod with an essence? Just wasted 2 divs
This was my logic behind it too. I've crafted stuff locked behind meta mods on harvest and veiled orbs before. I don't know why essences (and I guess fossils) are different. 2 divine isn't a whole lot but its enough that it stings at this point in my progression.Not a crafter, double check everything I say essences and fossils ignore can't be changed meta crafts. Harvest does not. Veiled Chaos Orbs also are fine.

I had planned to get Deaf Torment on here for the shock avoidance, give it searing for 100% shock and call it a day. Anyway to salvage this?

Concur, Darkness Enthroned is great for capping out some avoidance. I have a 92% one you can haveNo way to get the avoid shock on there no, not without using recombinators and a lot of luck.
Best bet is craft a thing you want then use foulborn exalt to hit a big res
You can hit 100% shock avoid on a belt though if you need to with stygian + essences and a big roll on an abyssal jewel
Appreciate it but was trying to do it with boots so I could use tides of time. But regular stygian plus jewel is probably the cheaper option for now. Might try to slam a crusader on there and see if I can hit that shock but that leaves me without the ability to get it from searing influence (but would be more). I very much doubt I can stack crafted shock/chill on there if I miraculously am able to get crusaders avoid shock? Would be pretty hilarious.Concur, Darkness Enthroned is great for capping out some avoidance. I have a 92% one you can havePenance if you want to go that route.
Flask charge on crit is about all you got left.What are my options for gaining utility flask charges ? Im using tides of time but end up losing a lot of power in my belt slot for it . I can’t replace my kaoms chest and I can’t use a balbala gem. And I’m not a pathfinder. Is there anything else or am I screwed
