Hi guys, will be playing again this league
anyone mind teaching me on the crafting system
until now I don't understand about crafting system for this game
and I've played awhile and watched the guides
BUT don't know why I just don't understand it

everytime I will be like okay I'm gonna craft
then ill be like eh??? how?

I'm no expert in this matter, cuz end-game crafting is frankly, quite out of reach for filthy casual like me due to the cost & rarity of exotic currencies, or just plain pain in the ass to grind to access it.
While there are some systematic crafting methods, in most cases it is just a slam of RNG lottery. Those systematic methods may just helps you to REDUCE then RNG-ness by cutting out unwanted results from the pool-of-potentials.
but at the least you need to be aware of crafting stuff you can access to make your own gear, instead of just buy everything from other people.

The first and foremost things you need to know is:
what mods do you want on a piece of gear?
Because different mods came from different sources, or different league content update. Know what you want to make is the first step.

Click the "Craft of Exile" link in my signature, that tool will help you to decide / know how to get the specific mod onto your item.



You will see something like above after picking a base item.
As you should already aware every [rare] item have 3 prefix & 3 suffix. And every of the mod have [ITEM LEVEL / iLvl] requirement.
If you want the best [T1] mod to appear on an item, of course, you want to use a base item of high iLvl over 80, typically came from red-tier-maps.

And then when you open the list of those [shaper], [elder], [redeemer], [crusader], [warlord], [hunter]... those are additional pool of mods provided by those [influenced] items.
An item must be [influenced] to roll these mods, these item have "special background" on their icon you probably seen some of them already.

[Incursion] mods only drop from inside Temple of Atzoalt - the Alva's busy work. Specifically from room's chest & boss.
Delve may also drop these on related rooms.

[Crafted] list is the whole damn syndicate [unveil] bullshit, aside from the various recipes you found while in story mode.

[Delve] mods are from specific fossil.

[Essence] & [Vaal] don't think I need to explain them... they are common enough.

//--

In most cases, filthy casual like me just Alc/Chaos slam an item and hope for the best. Alc/Chaos is plentiful enough it's not too big of an issue. Or Essence & Delve Fossil slam.
Then if hit a potentially good item, go patch it up on the crafting station. Maybe the [boot] have triple 40% resist but don't have move speed - you can craft 24% movespeed on the crafting station. And then maybe slam an Exalted Orb on it and hope for Life...

Or maybe I want to make a high-ES armor; the first step is to raise the quality of the base item by using related fossil (can go up to 40%).
Then slam the item with Alc/Chaos, or combination of Fossil to guarantee ES type mods.
After you got decently high tier of ES mods, then see if you patch it up in crafting station see if there mods to helps raise the ES further.

Before we go into it deeper
My first and foremost question is...

If we are required to have a decent eqs to farm for the currencies to craft eqs, how can we have decent eqs without currencies when currencies are required to craft eqs??

In a simplest form, what i meant to say is

Ok to craft you need lots of currencies. Chaos and exalt are scarce.
Wait for random drops? Not a chance.

So you must tackle higher and juiced up contents eg maps that are modded etc.

But to be able to encounter those juiced maps you need decent eqs that are capable to dish out damage and take in damage without dying again and again.

But then you cant have decent eqs to do it cause you have no currencies or a lot of currencies.

How do I get access to that. This is the first part i am confused.

You got what i mean?

Yep, the dilemma or chicken or egg question, or something like that.
You don't need expensive gears/builds to tackle red maps.
That is one thing everyone need to be aware about. You don't need 10~100 exalts to reach/run red maps.
Unless of course if you specifically picked a build that require exotic items.

For any 'regular' build, it should be functional with just a budget of 1ex, or 100-ish chaos.
Where do you get this "starter" currency? --> RNG, or Chaos Recipe.

Yes yes I can already hear those 0.1% shouting "don't do the chaos recipe it's a waste of time!"... already.
No. The recipe is there for a reason. I'm no player that plays with over9000% efficiency clearing maps at 15sec/map rate;; chaos recipe is actually big part of my income.
You can do this recipe from Act9~Act10 already, so make sure you do them to pile up some chaos to afford you some gear later.
Make sure you setup your loot filter to not show too many junks, in most cases for chaos-recipe purpose only permanently show the accessories cuz they are the rarer ones.
- pick up accessory > identify or not > if it is a [base type] I need, identified it; if it isn't, then it goes to the chaos recipe.

Getting from Act10 -> Mapping is often a big struggle especially for builds that depends on gear. Make sure you have some currencies available to trade or just basic crafting needs.
Also, latest league content always drop the best loots. So make sure you are not ignoring them.
For example in Heist if you struggle while in story, being poor and all that -- just go do Heist missions, even the low level ones... few hour later you might find yourself decently wealthy...

//--

For new league start : don't pick a build require expensive or very specific gear. Or at least pick those easier to start, but can be polished overtime with more expensive gears.
Pick something generic or easy to build, like summoner, totem or generic spell caster...

Last i played was the gardening league.

Do you have the filter only for chaos recipe pls
Ok i will try to farm act9 and 10 then

no need just a t 9 or 10, go to white n yellow maps straight, collect unidentified rate item i64 above. i use flterblade filter set normal strict, most shit i pick , besides chaos recipe i sell for alternation, this orb can trade later.

Ok today i will start to play it again
Will post in game name also

u better find choosen, he got mirrors very league

if your build can handle it of course... unless I'm playing playing summoner, so often after finishing Act 10 (about lv60) feels like complete crap.
2k life, barely cap resist, shit weapon/dps and all that problems preventing a smooth map run... if dying every 3 minutes loosing exp that is just pointless.
Act10 area can do up to lv70 no problem, there's nothing wrong of taking the time to overhaul the build a bit before going map.

Who??
Maybe can ask him for help.
Pls tag him

if you are on softcore trade just buy them if you the currency

high end crafting are for end game and late game

most of the time you just need to craft stats or resistances

no need panic

what build you are playing ?

my main problem is that usually i dont have the currencies and i rely so much on random drops

i cant go through mapping and will stuck eventually on white or yellow map only because i will die again and again unable to continue
because I dont have currencies = i dont have eqs

i want to learn also about crafting because i thought if i know how then i will be able to get the currencies once i have the eqs

like i explained above on previous posts.

my main concerns in this game are 1. unable to make currencies 2. unable to have good eqs to get currencies 3. unable to move forward without currencies and eqs


i dont have a one build i use for every league actually,
i will look at youtube and choose any league starter
for now I will pick one build from YOUTUBE called ESORO

but usually i will come to a point where even after i using the build i am unable to continue BECAUSE builds USE RARES!!!!!!! WITH ALL THE CRAFTING MODS I DONT KNOW HOW TO GET!!!

every league i choose get a good starter build

a good starter build will get you thru act 10 easily and maybe red maps maps, maybe not end game but at least till yellow maps

a good starter build doesn't require much gear, mostly 4 links (farming tabula rasa act 9 blood aqueduct is not viable anymore)

thru your journey to act 10 remember to pick up rares that will help your resistance and some life

there are also some crafting recipe that will help your journey

most items have open '' suffix or prefix '' that you can craft stats and resistance on the missing suffix
this is why people always buy for example a ring with 70 life 40 fire resistance and 1 open suffix (there is one missing suffix on it ) so that you can craft additional 30 of any resistances for 1 alchemy orb , these items are sold like 1- 2c

i wouldn't say Esoro is a good channel for starter build, the build are complicated and mostly require 6 link which you are not going to get and playing it on 4 link is nearly impossible for new players

here are some of my choices for 3.13 which i hand picked for you, ill be playing dominating blow btw

very very boring

i went for the second build you gave here
but I'm not sure what the notes mean.



seems complicated
