And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed;
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,
And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still

Maybe get a raise spectre gem and raise a mob that applies bleeds? I just did it with a bleed gladiator

e: knitted horrors from dried lake?

This might work. There's no way to grab those partway through a map, right? I'd need to bring them in and hope they survive while I rush to the boss? Or also slot a desecrate?

e: Sounds like buying a carry is by far the quickest, thanks.

lmao okay, I'll have to take your word for it because I guess you're running in different circles than I am.

You can also go on the reddit and find plenty of other people who only use exalts as currency, either because they're too valuable compared to what you can buy or it's still easier to just buy what you need instead of bothering gambling with them in the first place.

I would clear the map up to the boss, bring it down to cull %, then go get the spectre to have 5 shots at it living long enough for the bleed to coincide with the bone roil.

Lollin at the idea of a 6w 6 link explode chest for 2 ex :V

A 6l 6w 28/30q is about 50c because of beastcrafting. Crusader exalt is under 1ex, or random harvest add influence instead of crusader exalt. A couple essence to roll reflect phys and phys taken as lightning, and remove non phys add phys to guarantee explode. So you can buy these for under 2ex now.


None of this is changing with the announced harvest changes.

You can't harvest craft influenced items anymore, so that last step is very much changing.

Only 3 on crusader body. And with dual influence take phys as lightning blocks other take phys as element so you can still do it with hunter redeemer and shaper.

the only change to OWN infernal blow raider, the best build i ran this league and the most fun build i've run in a while, is that it'll be harder to craft/buy a good elemental weakness on hit ring. you can still craft GG cluster jewels and make 6 off color Wildwraps with harvest. people will likely still undervalue inspired learning. neither OWN nor raider seem likely to get nerfed and the build only runs 3 rares, so if you're looking for a second build of the league that can map pretty well it's a solid option.

If I'm a dodge/evasion-based assassin with 6500 EHP, and I get hit 100 times per second, and I regen 60000000 EHP per second, what are some easy things I can do to prevent being one-shot? Seems like I should spec out of dodge and get more life? Take Transcendence and head to Iron Reflexes?

Same. Fastest leveling I've ever experienced, but once I got up into red maps it was exploding if anything looked at it the wrong way and I couldn't see any real options to upgrade it that weren't astronomically expensive.

I greatly preferred OWN Ice Crash Raider to IB, because the freezing made it feel tanky as poo poo. But it was just inferior to General's Cry Zerker in basically every way; not a better bosser, mapper, and not really any easier to gear. Although it's probably true that it's a lot less likely to eat a nerf than GC Zerker.

The manifesto seems clear that this is incorrect. "Crafts that add mods of specific types (like Physical Modifiers, for example) to items can now only be applied to non-influenced items, except for the existing mod that applies an influenced mod to an influenced item." And honestly the part of that scenario that's broken isn't the harvest, it's the beast crafting.

All currency drops are replaced with tokens that buy you time at one of the Tiny's trial benches. Harvest is just an entire warehouse full of pre-loaded trial benches.

Wind dancer, kintsugi, mistwall are in the game for precisely that purpose. 6500 life is around the point where you're almost always better off getting something that acts as an EHP multiplier rather than just more raw life.

ehhh not an option I'm a Poison Assassin lol

Like I just did my first 100% Delirious map and it was fun but I used a bunch of portals. My Poisons ramp up in duration (and therefore DPS) as I inflict thousands of them to everything onscreen, all the huge HP mobs die eventually, but in the meantime I have like 100+ onscreen enemies chasing me in a hoard and casting spells for about 10 seconds before they die, so every few minutes I get nailed by a one-shot because of the sheer volume of incoming attacks and spells. I take no extra crit damage which I'm sure is the biggest help against one-shots, I'm just wondering if I'm missing some other mechanic and Transcendence is the only other thing that comes to mind. Kintsugi and Wind Dancer are usually great against oneshots but not when I'm being wailed on.

I'm surprised nothing has happened to beastcrafting really. And next league they will probably add some mechanic that is extra broken when combined with either imprints or split beasts then not patch it for two weeks.

The harvest manifesto is talking about augments and keeps comparing them to slamming an exalt, it isn't clear if this applies to remove non add x, they aren't really exalt equivalents.

At current fossil prices it is about 3ex to hit explode, around 60c for remove non phys add phys. They would be around twice as expensive but not really out of reach. Things like 8l minion helms, tailwind elusive boots, anything with life or ES and good resists made with an awakener orb will be much harder to craft.

I mean that quote I gave you is a direct quote from the "What are we doing" conclusion section of the manifesto, seems pretty cut and dry, still not sure where you're seeing anything muddy. No tag targeting crafts will be able to apply to influenced items. Remove non/add is a tag targeted craft, and therefore will not work on influenced items.

Definitely think beastcraft needs a rework.

I wonder if GGG would have been better off to announce these Harvest changes with the main 3.14 manifesto (or hell, maybe even just slip them in with the patch notes)? That way you at least get whatever "good" new stuff is coming down the pipe to soften the blow. I guess the hope of saying it now is that the outrage will have enough time to die down before next league start? Maybe they thought reddit would be more understanding (lol) if they isolated the news and tried to be as transparent as possible with their intentions.

I really hope they work on the performance issues next league. The vast majority of my deaths have been because I ran into some texture or animation that I haven't seen in a while and my screen completely locks up. My computer isn't exactly great, but none of the other games I play have this problem. It's really frustrating.
