    475% Max AOE Doryani's Touch Build

    100 Simulacrums Final Report,is it THAT worth ? and general feedback if you are planning to run them.

    Posted: 22 Apr 2020 04:11 AM PDT

    TL:DR for whoever doesn't want to go through the whole thread HERE.

    After hitting 99 i figured i wanted to combine something both useful and profitable (xp and currency-wise) to smooth out the process and make it somewhat tolerable compared to juicing up maps.
    Eventually i picked up Simulacrums as they give a pretty hefty amount of XP,a reasonable profit and,most importantly,they don't require managing outside of dumping the loot into stashes.
    I initially planned to run a bigger sample but after realizing the whole process was starting to lobotomize me doing some math i figured i'd run 100 in total.

    How to get started.

    What i mainly did was trying to get bulk Sims for an average price instead of premium and snipe any Sim below 120c;
    I usually did this while taking a break from the actual gameplay and clearing quad tabs/managing my other trades to minimize downtime (took me around 1 hour and a half to get 100).

    Selective loot.

    Initially i used NeverSink's lootfilter but soon realized it was showing way too much stuff comparing to what i was planning to pick up (as an example sacrifice fragments,low tier incubators,talismans etc.) but decided to go ahead and run the first 50 Sims with it.
    Results :

    • Runs were taking around 2 to 3 minutes more compared to the following ones (meaning a potential 5 hours waste in the full run for a very small profit).
    • Overall strain forced me to take small 5-10 minutes breaks to stretch out a bit every couple runs (which i still suggest doing even if you don't ache or feel pain).
    • Last but not least the amount of Sac frags and low tier incubators was taking up half of my quads slots.
      So all in all worthless for the small margin you make on these (both sac frags and low tier incubators).

    My personal advice is to get the latest NeverSink's lootfilter version (stricter one) and modify it through filterblade to hide the low tier incubators (i hid cartographer/abyssal/decadent/fragmented/primal).

    Layering,pricing and trading.

    First of all,this most likely won't be the most efficient way to layer,price and trade but it worked out fine for me so if you want to give it a try here's what i did.

    • During Simulacrums i just looted everything (after fixing the lootfilter) and as soon as i had a full inventory dropped everything into quad tabs.
    • Whenever i had all the quad tabs full (i suggest having at the very least 2) i would just selectively filter out the stuff i wanted to move into each corresponding tab (like typing ''Ess'' to show all essences, ''Curr'' to show all currency related items etc.).
    • As for pricing most of it will be bulk selling so you can sell for a premium on fossils/incubators/frags and so on,the only stuff i selectively priced were Sims Jewels (Megalomaniac/Split personality/Voices) Pure Breachstones and the most valuable Div cards,Gems and Clusters.
    • The way i priced Incubators and bulk items was to price a single one and keep it in a full quad tab of incubators/specific tab,that way all items gets listed for the same price even if they are not in the same tab but in different public tabs.
    • Keep in mind you should always layer the items whenever emptying your tabs but saving the entirety of trade for later once you are done with your runs to minimize downtime.

    Exceptions and off-set setup.

    I made some exceptions for apparently worthless stuff that could turn into a good profit like unique jewels that could give 1% mana reserved or corrupted blood and could fit in the meta builds or cobalt es% jewels following the same rule.

    Another thing i highly suggest doing and you should never skip is leveling gems in your off-set (weapon swap),if you are uncertain what to level here are the rules i usually followed :

    • You can either keep two 3 socketed weapons,a 6 socketed bow or invest 4.5ex to get Maloney's Mechanism and level 9 gems at once (this is what i suggest if you can afford it).
    • I checked what gems to level daily by analyzing poe.ninja swings.
    • I started out with 9 x awakened gems (since you need to swap them out less oftenly) and subsequentially started leveling a mix of hatred and wrath (with no quality,just level them to 20 and try hitting 21 on the corruption),now there's probably something more profitable so always make sure to check out price swings.

    Total investment and total profit (finally aye).

    First of all,it roughly took me 5 DAYS to run the simulacrums,layer/price the items and sell a solid 90% of the whole loot.
    The total investment for 100 Sims and off-set gems was 128ex.
    The total return was 1 Mirror and 131ex (381ex).
    The total profit was 253ex.
    This is the Album of the post layering stashes and final return.

    DISCLAIMER : the profit could have been higher but i decided to sell with a cheaper price to get rid of the bulk stuff faster,you can take it slow and get a bigger profit than i did,some of the cluster cheaper jewels and megalomaniac are also pretty hard to sell so i suggest taking your time trying to price them and see if someone makes an offer.

    Final report and overall feedback.

    If you are looking to make the best profit juiced up maps are most likely still the way to go as they give an overall better return ratio/hour on AVERAGE.
    If you want to make a steady profit and don't want to get tangled in managing sextants,rolling maps,prophecies,unique watchstones and trading for all of the above plus delirium orbs i guess Simulacrums might be a good alternative for you since they require close to no preparation at all.

    extra FAQ

    Here are some of the questions i received :

    What build did you use to run Simulacrums ?

    I ran an Herald EK Ascendant,Yes i know where the door is,Yes i'll show myself out,no but jokes aside i ran simulacrums smoothly previously on Hiero Storm Brand and Trickster ED even tho i have to admit double boss at wave 20 on ED was a bit of a pain but a total walk in the park with Storm Brand Archmage.

    Are 100% Delirium maps better than Simulacrums ?

    I vaguely explained above the difference,i don't feel as they are better or worse,most likely better for returns but you need to invest more time into managing a random number of things that i usually don't have the patience for.

    You just posted a 120ex+ investment but my build is 2ex and i have 40c in the bank,what do you suggest doing for profit ? and please don't say maps !

    Maps,no but honestly,if you have such a small budget you should really just be focusing on mapping fast and efficiently,farming sims splinters and selling in bulk,i understand your build might not be the ''best suited one'' to speed farm maps but there are hiero SB builds on an 8ex+ budget that smashes delirium/conquerors/sirus and Simulacrums.

    How come the mods lets you post with that extremelybadlyanduncomfortable formatting ?

    I have no idea,shoutout to the mods,if they feel like changing the formatting to make it more user friendly i'll carry your bosses in game for free,i read some guides on formatting,read the reddit helper but i am just that bad at it,sorry.

    Are Delve/Betrayal/Incursion/Blighted Maps/Beastfarming worth atm ?

    Delve is profitable in my personal experience,but you have to reach a decent depth (i'd say 500+ if you really want to start gaining a stable income).

    Betrayal has always been profitable and i remember recently there's been a guide posted on here which was extremely detailed,same goes for incursion.

    As for blighted maps you are definetly making a great return comparing to what you are investing but oils prices slowly dropped below the ground and i don't feel like it's the best option to farm them at all unless you got an afk build that can farm them.

    That's pretty much it,if you reached the end of the thread kudos,i could barely do it as i was writing it,hope the formatting didn't turn out completely terrible.

    Since so many incubators drop this league, can we get a visual indicator of incubators in our gear?

    It might not be a good idea to add quality to 20% on your Ryslatha's coil

    Posted: 22 Apr 2020 09:27 AM PDT

    At 19% quality, my Ryslatha's Coil has 45% more max damage, and 35% less minimum.

    But at 20% quality, the minimum damage drops to 36% less, while the max damage stays at 45%

    So that extra 1% quality actually gives you 1% LESS minimum damage, with no added max.

    Do u like levelling/running acts?

    Posted: 22 Apr 2020 08:06 AM PDT

    Hello PoE-players, I wanna create discussion about levelling and running acts. Lets go, and first of all: sorry for my bad english, I gonna try my best. Anyway, lets go.

    So, my question is: Do u like running acts and levelling new characters, if yes, do u have some "basic" things which u doing BEFORE u start levelling/running? Heres what I doing:

    1. Trying buy all items which my new build gonna need (jewels, weapons, belts etc.) and if theres not required unique items like belts etc, I buy normal rare items with resistances and life. Basic stuff.
    2. I buy all skill gems ready, and grab them to my inventory already (same with portal scrolls etc.) I try to visit the towns as infrequently as possible. (Only when skill point book or things like it). I too take all items which going be on my end-game gear too if those have low level requirement (like 20 astramentis etc).
    3. I "rush" acts and doing sidequests with passives when I have killed Kitava A10). If my build uses items which need level 68 or so (like Kaom's Heart), I maybe stop levelling some levels on A9 BA and continue story when can equip those items.

    Then.. about acts, those are my opinions:

    Acts 1-4 are veery boring to me, tbh I dont know why, but feels like its too repeative (I looking u, act2).

    Acts 5-7 are okish, maybe act6 is little too long for me. But it's pretty straightforward so it speeds up rushing.

    Act8-10 are fine, A9-10 feel so short when you first run act6-7, lol.

    ​

    Overall, I like levelling. I normally use twink gear (ofc not on league start) like Tabula, wanderlust etc. I change those to my main end-game items around lv50-55 when I can get better items.

    ​

    I apologize for the long post and hope to read your preferences and above all your opinions, thank you for your effort and apologies for my poor language skills again.

    Stash Tab Icons

    What are peoples thoughts on having stash tab icons like in the drop down bar? I personally use letters, but having icons would be much easier. Excuse my crude paint-job

    Loot from 100 Sirus kills

    Posted: 22 Apr 2020 06:34 AM PDT

    I got a bit interested in knowing more about Sirus' drop rates, so I took note of all drops during 100 runs. Posting it here just in case it's interesting to anyone else.

    Number of tries (A8): 104

    Helmet: 52

    Gloves: 36

    Sword: 4

    Crimson Jewel: 11

    Good Watchstone (stones worth more than 20c): 23

    Bad Watchstone: 16

    1ex + Gem: 7

    Bad gem: 14

    Awakener orb: 21

    Good gems:

    Cold pen: 3.5 ex

    cold pen: 3.5 ex

    Curse on hit: 8.5 ex

    Curse on hit: 8.5 ex

    Controlled destruction: 9.5 ex

    multiple proj: 15 ex

    area of effect: 1.5 ex

    added cold: 2.5 ex

    Generosity: 1 ex

    All in all, I feel like I might have gotten a bit unlucky (feels like gem/awaken orb might be 1/3), except with the swords which probably was above average.

    Why isn't Sin at the Karui Shores in the Epilogue??

    Posted: 22 Apr 2020 09:13 AM PDT

    Once you beat Sirus for the first time & progress past Oriath in the Epilogue you have to go to another act to find sin every time you collect another soul for your Pantheon.

    OR why not make it so you can invite Sin to your Hideout?
