| 100% Unique Collection in SSF and how I broke the game in half to do it Posted: 03 Jan 2021 05:30 PM PST TL;DR If you just want to see reaction clips, my unique stash tab, or my currency tab, there you go. It took 5 months to collect all 1012 uniques. 379 exalts. 7737 Delve Depth. 2613 Blighted Maps. 7173 Metamorph Scarabs. 1012 Uniques. My name is IronVsWild, and I am an addict. There's nothing quite like getting a +1 and putting it in the unique tab, watching the number slowly climb higher. Recently, I ran out of +1s to get, so now I'm here telling my story. Across five months and thousands of hours, I've completely filled my unique tab in SSF - Including the hidden slots you might not know are there. How It Started I normally craft in trade league quite a bit. During Harvest, I got pretty burnt out of browsing discords and websites only to wait for other people to craft my items and hand them back. I decided to quite trade league early and play the last 5 weeks of Harvest in SSF, so that I could at the very least craft for myself. I'm not new to SSF and am generally a pretty efficient player. I've been collecting uniques loosely since the tab came out for the few weeks at a time I played SSF. It always felt like completing or beating a piece of content, which was cool. During Harvest, someone released the Unique Collection Ladder. Suddenly, SSF didn't seem so Solo anymore. Having an actual rank assigned to you made it seem like a competition, which was fun. So, instead of playing SSF normally and loosely collecting uniques, I started collecting uniques as my primary goal to see how far I could get during Harvest. Harvest was a great league for this, primarily because you could juice the garden full of T4 boss plots to an insane level and drop HUGE amounts of uniques. I ended Harvest with 870 uniques, ranked 3rd on the ladder. I probably could have gotten around 885 or 890, but I had some uniques in SSF Standard that I didn't want to waste time finding again. After Harvest merged and I ran the merged content/turned in div cards, I was at 930 uniques. Heist league didn't look too appealing to me, and I had geared up a deep delver during Harvest, so I figured I would just league start Heist late while trying to learn how to deep delve and run fractured maps. As most of us know, Heist didn't exactly have a flawless league start, or league month for that matter. I kept delaying til bugs were fixed and I kept getting more uniques than I thought I was going to. Three weeks into Heist I was at 983 uniques in SSF Standard. It was then that I made the decision to not play Heist at all and try to go for 100% uniques instead. But how can you get every unique without getting heist uniques? In my opinion, it is 100% impossible to ever collect all uniques while only playing in leagues. There's an absolutely absurd amount of ultra endgame grind that has to be done that just can't be done in leagues. I thought it would be fair to ignore a league and attempt to 100% by the end of that league cycle. If you don't manage it, then you have to go find all of that league's uniques before trying again. And thus the rules were born: Collecting every unique specifically means collecting every unique that is currently possible to obtain in SSF Standard without ripping from Hardcore trade. So replicas? Can't get those without actually heisting, so no. Global heist uniques? Well, it's tedious, but you can get them through time-lost incubators and similar, so yes. Fishing uniques? They're possible to get and go in the tab, so yes again. How It Went October 6th, 3.5 weeks into Heist, and I had 983/1012 uniques. There were only 29 left. October 28th, 7 weeks into Heist, I breached 1000 with Winds of Change, Izaro's Turmoil, Emperor's Wit, and Emperor's Mastery. I ended the day at 1003 uniques, a huge milestone. 9 left. October 30th, Vox dropped me a Divinarius in a map to finish Legion. 1004 uniques, 8 left. November 6th, I finished my 2nd set of The Vast and Ancient Orbed Reefbane to finish Fishing. 1005 uniques, 7 left. November 10th, I received a crazy double drop of The Damned card to finish Soul Ripper, completing Incursion. 1006 uniques, 6 left. November 11th, Cassia gave me a Cowl of the Cryophile and I hit 1007. Heist was being extended by a month, so I had two months to get 5 uniques. How bad could it be? Well, to give you some context, the final 5 uniques were:
Rigwald's Command was annoying, but was only really there because I could get it from content I'd yet to fully complete. The others... they were bad. November 24th I became the first person to reach depth 6000 in SSF, all in the pursuit of uniques. November 29th, Astral Projector from a Tane's Lab metamorph. 1008 uniques, 4 left. As December began, so did Blightcember, where I ran Blighted Maps every day that equaled the day of December, doubled. 2, then 4, then 6.... then 46, then 48.... and so on. December 4th, Blight dropped a Rigwald's Command from a talisman chest. 1009 uniques, 3 left. December 9th, Warrior's Legacy from a Tane's Lab metamorph, finishing Metamorph at long last. 1010 uniques, 2 left. December 25th, Eyes of the Greatwolf from a Ritualistic Jewelry chest inside a Vaal City at depth 7599 to finish Talisman. 1011 uniques, 1 left. January 2nd, Sporeguard from the last Blighted Map I will ever run. 1012 uniques, 0 left. For a full list of uniques from 950 onwards and tons of reaction clips, use this link. How? 7737 Delve Depth. 2613 Blighted Maps. 7173 Metamorph Scarabs. I know what you're thinking. These are trade league numbers. These are INSANE trade league numbers. So how the hell did I pull it off in SSF? Besides having great game knowledge, determination fueled by self-hatred, and grinding unholy hours, the answer is actually really simple: Fractured Fossils and Delirium Orbs. It's the same concept as doing it in trade league, except I did it for resources, not for profit. Once you reach depth 1500 or so, you can begin to sustain delving by fracturing a map with Scarab rewards. As you push deeper, you find more Fracs per sulphite, which frees them up to be spent on other maps. Incubators, to target league specific uniques or Legion, Prophecy, Harbinger, Talisman, Blight, and so on. I ran over 2500 fractured maps throughout this grind. They were my bread and butter. What other way can you get 7000 metamorph scarabs? 2600 blighted maps? Target things that need targeting? It just isn't feasible. The answer to the other How? question, as in "How did you have time to do this?" is COVID. I'm at high risk due to being diabetic, and was fortunate enough to be able to stay with my family while it's all been going down. Some things along the way deserve special attention for their role in this grind. Let's begin with... Harvest Harvest was nuts. In one month of playing SSF, I was able to fully gear out a deep delver capable of 6k and a 100% delirious mapper that could also reach insane speeds. While that is important, most people already know about Harvest gear. What made it so much better was the garden. When planting high tier seeds in a plot, they receive an enormous multiplicative bonus to both quantity and rarity. If you combine this with a zana map that makes quantity apply to rarity, unique watchstones, special sextants, player IIQ/IIR gear, and Winged Reliquary scarabs, you get game crashing explosions of thousands of uniques. This was so important because there are SO MANY base game uniques that are EXTREMELY rare, and have no way of being targeted besides just waiting for them to eventually drop. Even with garden juicing, it was still incredibly difficult to get all of them. But I did. I used the garden to get every base game unique along with every league specific unique that was available from the map device. This includes Headhunter, which I dropped 4 of. Unfortunately, 3 met their end at the corruption chamber. The final three base game uniques that I got in Harvest were Unnatural Instinct, Kitava's Feast, and Garukhan's Flight. Fishing Memes aside, this was rough even with my insane luck. I farmed two sets of The Vast to get Song of the Sirens and Reefbane, which took hundreds of Fractured Fossils with gilded div scarabs on a Reef map I set up. As far as anyone knows, I'm also the first SSF player to get my hands on an Angler's Plait. I got EXTREMELY lucky and got it after 1 day of wearing the appropriate gear to farm for it. Lab Yeah, this was hell. Upgraded offerings from Harvest took care of most of the lab uniques, but it took me about 150 full key uber lab runs for the last two. But what about the jewels? They have slots in the unique tab, so I had to get them. Issue is, the same people win the jewels every single day and always have. The jewels I got by levelling up a character in SSF Standard HC, where there isn't much competition, then ripping them back over to SSF Standard. Except Emperor's Mastery, the Uber Lab jewel. For that one... Continued in the comments below[link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| One of the best thing about Heist is smart loot from Grand Heist. Posted: 03 Jan 2021 11:42 PM PST It's genuinely the most positive thing I can takeaway from Heist mechanic amidst the qualms I have with it. Sure the alternate qualities gems, replicas and experimented bases are generally welcomed additions, I think I love the idea of rares actually rolling well as a drop (or in heist case, grab) the most. In flashback ssf, I found a mechalarm belt that rolled with 80+ life, bunch of resists and it got me happier than a freaking HH chancing in less than 10 ancient orbs, no joke. I hope the smart loot idea is also incorporated in 3.13 mechanic going forward. [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| League Launch Lunch for the upcoming league. - I’m sorry. Posted: 03 Jan 2021 03:37 PM PST if you don't know what the League Launch Lunch was, you can safely ignore this post. But normally leading up to a league launch, I arrange for food and snacks to be provided to the GGG staff that are working during launch day as a thank you from the community of players that can appreciate the hard work that launch day itself can impose on a team. The bottom line: I am under some financial hardship and I am unable to foot the upfront bill of the league launch lunch for the upcoming league launch lunch. Additionally my mental health is not in a great state, so the effort is a bit daunting. Normally I go through the work of planning the food provided as well as coordinate with the GGG office to receive the food prior to raising any funds to cover the costs. However right now I can't risk paying anything out of pocket. Additionally, while crowdfunding in advance is an option, I don't feel up to putting all the time and effort into the event when I'm currently in the middle of a bit of a crisis. While there's been some minor negative response to the previous two efforts the VAST majority of people were supportive of the effort. I did not want to make a public post about the problems I'm going through right now, but as I'd committed to continuing this tradition, I felt like the community deserved an explanation. I also tend to get a lot of people reaching out around this time asking about the LLL so I'm hoping to nip that in the bud. My financial situation is due to a combination of things happening outside of my control as well as some poor decisions on my part as well. I should be fine in the long run, but right now I'm even jumping on eBay to catch up. [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| First time I'm very and deeply sad after PoE Experience :/ Long story Posted: 04 Jan 2021 01:26 PM PST So today i thought its good time to test last build this league. I had only 50 ex but i had hope that's going to be enough for TR Trickster. Unfortunately, prices went up by a lot and I knew that's going to be problem, but anyway i started to buy carefully stuff. My second item was Maloney's Mechanism ~ 20 ex so i decide that i can pay this price but it's going to be tight after that. So i bought corrupted one and i thought that you can change colours of socket with bench like always but i couldn't do this with quiver. So, I was little sad and started chatting on global that maybe someone can lend me one for few days or smth (exchange for corrupted one etc) And one guy whispered me that he can change colours - no problem. Well usually I'm very careful but atm i don't care at all i just wanted to test this build out. So i gave him mine item and started nice and long conversation about PoE, build, etc. He told me that he played TR and he had a lot of stuff for this and he can give me. I was so happy, that first time i met guy like other guys from the posts (nice and helpful). He told me that he can even upgrade my bow (i already had red light in my head because he didn't give me my Maloney, but after 1 h conversation I didn't care at all). I wanted to be nice guy also and I told him that i can give him some currency on standard if he cares. He said sure if I don't need. I never play standard and i played few years already so i gave him about 500 ex and hh. After that he told me that my build is finish but we still talked after that about 20 minutes more. Finally he said that lets go back to heist and he will give me TR stuff. After reconnect he block me and that's almost end of story. I was little disappointed but i decided that i want to tell him that's ok and i can even give him more stuff if he really need. His answer was that he thinks that i have more currency on standard and i didn't want to give him :/ I said that i gave him all (its true I never play standard and i was giving away stuff for other people) but if this is his decision i wished him good luck next League. His answer was „You Too". Tldr After 2 hours of nice conversation someone still scammed me (500 ex 30 ex items and HH) and it makes me really sad that You can't trust random guys in PoE community. Sorry for my English but I wanted to fast write this and feel little relief :/ Anyway PoE is still my favourite game, so see You next leagues Exiles.

| Why are there not way more Uber boss fights in PoE? Posted: 03 Jan 2021 09:18 PM PST I was rewatching ExileCon - preparing my mind and body for any juicy news on Thursday - and one of the best parts of the whole thing was hearing Neon talk. He seemed so sad when the full time PoE streamers would talk about how they kill his precious creations in under a second. In the balance segment he acknowledges that the Uber fights are popular and not that resource intensive to implement. With all talk about power creep in PoE, I really think there are some easy way to test some of the meta builds in the game. Why isn't there more progressive difficulty to bosses? Why does Sirius only have 8 tiers? The main reason I think delve and delirium had the highest retention for me was because we at least had a way of pushing our characters all the way they could possibly go. Even though I loved harvest, after I had amazing rare items, I didn't have much to pit it against. I think we would all love to see hyper difficult totally optional boss fights with some actually good (chase) unique items that are super cool and not goofy like HH. I almost feel as thought PoE is missing an entire tier of content. We need to raise the ceiling, not lower the floor.

| Regarding Movement for Bleeding: Ensnaring Arrow vs Knockback Posted: 04 Jan 2021 02:19 PM PST 1) Ensnaring Arrow works on all bosses. Great ability for Bow users 2) Knockback does not work on major bosses. Crappy for Melee users Why cant we have knockback work on all bosses. With the major bosses moving very little but they are moving....I don't understand the immunity part..... Can someone explain, why? this is a thing?

| How to not disconnect from %100 delirous maps ? Advices please. Posted: 04 Jan 2021 01:46 PM PST Hello. I have Nvidia Geforce GTX 1080 graphic card, AMD Ryzen 5 2600-x six core processor and 8gb ram. Normally i dont disconnect a lot but playing 100% delirious maps pretty impossible for me. In Heist i try to play aura bot with my friend and every single %100 delirious map I disconnect a lot. However my friend did not disconnect a lot and his pc specs are worse than me. Any advice for not getting dc in %100 delirous maps. I heard that closing vulkan helps but it did not effect that much for me. Btw i have shit internet like 16 mbps right now. [link] [comments]  |
