Anyone have advice on this?

I just beat Atziri but the animation of her being consumed by the beast doesn't play and the medallion doesn't drop. I'm stuck in the boss room with no way out either. :(

Help me understand how to farm temple. I did every room, including the naked lady boss, and the best loot I got was chaos orbs. I was expecting piles of divine orbs. What am I doing wrong? I am level 88.

I just got my first spirit gem, bought the herald of ice, and cracked the skull so I have 30 spirit . On my character sheet I have 30 spirit but when I try toggle it on it goes red and I can't seem to equip it. Any reasons why this is happening?

I've been working on a CoC Elemental Weakness Archmage build but I feel like progress has kind of stalled because any upgrades I could grab would be ludicrously expensive. (Close to or well over 1000 divines). Here is my current build - I can easily clear most content, T16 juiced maps can occasionally be scary if they have bad modifiers, but in particular I'm trying to solve two main issues (for a reasonable price) currently:

  1. My bossing is abysmal - I can't kill Citadel bosses on 6 mod most of the time and that bothers me. Many citadel bosses can still basically one-shot me if not mostly so, and even if I do live, the build requires me to move in riskily to fish for more mana remnants on bosses that again, tend to one shot me.
  2. Maps with a "players have +% reduced life regeneration" seem to debuff my leech, which leaves me starving for both life and mana. I don't love having to read every single waypoint's prefixes just for this one modifier, if there was a way to tolerate it better so I could just look at the stats I care about, that would be great.

Some examples of suggested upgrades that aren't really viable for me:

  • Idle Hands with % max mana corrupt specifically
  • Alpha's Howl with +116 minimum spirit itself (currently amulet needs spirit which limits me)
  • Tecrod's Gaze
  • Atziri's Splendour
  • Against the Darkness +12 spirit to transition to Vertex head

Does splinter totem trigger fissures aftershocks multiple times? as in 1, 2, 4 times? Cant really see since they all attack at the same time.

Why can I only turn on CoC if my quarterstaff is in weapon slot 1?

If I move the quarterstaff to weapon slot 2 it will not turn on. Trying to use Rigwald's

Has this whole 'enemies jump at you, you kill them, repeat with next group' loop that I remember from launch improved?
