Fate of the Vaal was a major learning experience for me. 10/10 enjoyed this league.

Very grateful for temple this league. I learned about negative rarity farming, made a rarity / negative rarity bot and didn’t realize how much fun I’d have playing a support character that literally didn’t have any attacks other than an unslotted fireball I used to verify my rarity stat.
Exceptional farming and lock farming allowed me to learn a lot this league about deterministic crafting as well as some other mechanics to get the most out of uniques that drop.
First big project was an amulet from a YouTube video I followed, then I moved on to some Vile robes and then sekhemas sandals. Finally decided to do a big craft when I had some currency and followed Fubguns mirror bow craft. Pulled off a fourth socket and sold it for enough money to do another and try and sanctify.
Was aiming big hoping for all overrolls (didn’t realize how low the odds of that are and probably missed my shot for a good sanctify and ended up with another fourth socket, the blurry picture was from playing on the steamdeck) but I’ve got two more I’m working on to try again.
Since, I’ve managed to craft an insane evasion chest piece and some dagger foot boots from temple drops. Tip, don’t craft if you’ve stayed up past 4am.. you’ll see my first mess up where I forgot to quality before corrupting, then the next two corruptions missed until the fourth pair turned into a solid pair of boots.
Continuing to learn about sanctification after my entry into this mechanic with the bows I decided to settle on the two +4 all spell amulets I crafted.
Additionally managed to pull off some great corruptions on Ventors and Andavarius, as well as Ingenuity and now have a -106% immortal build as well as a Adorned res capped 680% build on my ritualistic which only ever attacked anything in act three of the campaign while my guilty was rushing me through it to get to temple to start the negative rarity farm. Finished campaign and hit lvl 95 in two temple runs in a total of four hours.
If you read all this, enjoy some pictures of the crafts and corruptions I’m proud of this league.
