Someone told me that if you have %gold find in your tablets it reduces your %magic find and other factors like xp so you should avoid it. The same for the Abyssal Atlas node that says increased magic monsters means you will get fewer rares. Is there any truth to any of this?

Is farming rituals worth it?

Assuming that the tablet set up for 10 maps is around 80 divs you would have to pull out at least 3 of the expensive omens for that to make sense. From my experience you get an expensive omens per 180 rerolls so that like 15 maps.

So my question is how the fk people are making money farming rituals?

I'm having trouble with the Azmerian Ranges boss fight for some reason. Most T15 boss fights are pretty trivial, but I struggle with this one! I tried to get them low enough to be possessed by 3 spirits (I'm assuming there is better loot from that?) but once they have 2-3 spirits, I keep getting one-shotted by a spear-throw attack.

  • This happened to me several times with a variety of map mods, so I don't think those are the culprit.

  • I died with 2k life + 2k ES, 60% chaos res. I have 15k-ish evasion (and armor from Invoker) and deflection, but I'm assuming whenever I die to this it's because I didn't deflect or evade, I understand there's some RNG going on.

I feel confused because the rest of the boss' attacks are fine, but this one wrecks me! I recorded a clip of me trying to get the boss possessed by 3 spirits and dying in the process. It doesn't look like the spear directly hit me either! Am I missing something about this boss, or is there a defense I'm neglecting? Thanks!

I'm trying out going with crossbows as both my primary and secondary weapons. I have Permafrost Bolts loaded and fired by my first crossbow to freeze enemies, and Fragmentation Rounds from my second one to explode frozen enemies. This saves me the time of having to manually switch between the two types of rounds, and switching weapons is instantaneous and switching ammo types are not.

Is this a common strategy for crossbows and/or bows to avoid having to constantly change ammo types?

Is there any way to know how many support sockets an item based skill like molten crash can have?

I have an item level 81 tali but I can only add 4 supports. There's nothing on the trade site that shows how many they have either.

So I’m starting quite late on the league and working on Milkybk’s easy temple. Can I modify that temple to also farm atziri every second run?  Saw it was possible to slightly modify his hard temple to do this.

I'm looking to get Crystalization Omens in SSF, I've read that they drop 75-79, so no reason to run higher level maps as the drop pool get's polluted. Is it the same for King in the mists? Does Tier1 actually gives you the best chance?
