Also I just learned a bit about the Doryani’s Institute Lens. Apparently you can get a level 19 gem to level 21, and a level 2 enlighten/empower to level 4 which would be huge. You can get +2 levels, you just can’t go past 21 or 4. So all those times I didn’t put a level 20 gem in I could have taken a chance with a 19 which I do frequently have sitting around thanks to the dying anguish divination cards.
Researched it a bit and there’s plenty of conflicting opinions which makes sense given that fairly common outcomes will be things like +1 level and -1 level appearing to do nothing etc. There are enough reports of the same outcome happening twice though that it seems to be correct. I wouldn’t waste a level 19 gem you wanted to use on it, but if you’ve got extra 19s around and nothing better to put in there it might be worth a shot.

thanks for the implicit suggestion! I did cursed lab to get bone sculptor and then it was indeed pretty quick (1 heal pot) to burn her down. What is likely to be the next difficult step?
If you are having problems with the rogue gods the one in A8 can be a bit tricksy. I also sometimes have problems with the end act boss (although not with either form individually).
Pricing suggestions for this one? I don’t see many comps searching online. I found 3 rings listed that are 3, 10, and 25c. All unfortunately several days old. I The big difference are those have speciifc resistances and this got the weird “traded crit chance for Resist all corruption” and rolled resist all on top of it. 60% resists on a ring is not unusual, but it’s weird that it’s resist all.
kind of feel like this is deceptively mediocre, but I’d love to get ~10c for it.
I feel it is a good early late game gap filling ring, but not end game material. 5c maybe.

You’re looking at 81 resists, 51 life and 6-11 phys to attacks. Put that into poe.trade and you’ll get a realistic price. This is worth a couple chaos, tops.

I cant decide which conqueror jewel would be best for my Necro. I already have some flask augmenting nodes so that one seems good as does the Dodge. I only have one Aura right now, in part because I’m running mom, but if I took the aura Jewel I could get some more auras. Any thoughts?

So Who do I need to talk to to get in the QT3 guild? I think PoE is going to stick for awhile…
Post your current toon’s name and your POE account name so we can send you an invite. I’m an officer so I think I can invite you, otherwise I think @ineffablebob is the current admin.
I pretty much always do Efficiency, auras or not, if I’m actually using the jewel. (On many toons I’ve already got something better by then and don’t use it at all.) Even if you have no auras the other two mods aren’t bad.
@sharaleo is correct, just let us know who you are! Feel free to message ineffablebob in-game, too, though unfortunately that’ll only work if I happen to be online.

Thanks! Do you think assassin’s hastewould be better? That’s the only real contender I have right now. Or I could use the skill point on more armor…
Absolutely, I often use Assassin’s Haste until a better jewel is available. All the mods are useful until your other nodes or gear have covered those areas.
Sorry, but I thought that was clear?
Anyway it sold for 10c, pretty quickly.
I’m running a physical skeleton summoner, and it’s going well. And by well I mean I’ve just started mapping; didn’t have any real issues getting there. My character is MotherBones. At the risk of sounding whiny, the build feels lacking in a way that I find difficult to put my finger on. It kill stuff, but it’s certainly not what I’d call fast (I have trouble completing Incursions and fissures in time). She’s only died twice, but I feel like I get hit a lot. Are these characteristics just the playstyle when you’re using skeletons and zombies?
Regardless, she gets the job done, though it’s a bit unsatisfying.
The skeleton summoner definitely takes more damage than the spectre/zombie version. You’re regularly resummoning them, which means more standing still. And the skeletons don’t soak up as much area damage as the zombies do by simply being in the way of stuff, although that may not apply to you since I see you have both. Plus I see you’re not using a shield. Queen’s Decree or Femurs of the Saints have nice benefits, but you lose quite a bit of defense without the block/life/resists that a shield give you. I’m still using wand/shield on CharmingOssifier.
As for damage, I’m running into similar issues in tier 10+ maps. I can stay alive or I can clear incursions, but not both. It’s gotten to the point where I’ll do a few lower-level maps to build up temple connections, because I can pretty easily clear through incursions up to about tier 8. Then once I’ve got most of the rooms connected, I’ll do my higher level maps and just try to kill an architect in the last few incursions, which usually (though not always) can be done even if you don’t clear things insanely fast.
I have 3 “The Risk” div cards, which will exchange for a Ventor’s Gamble. This all feels super meta.
8c a piece, but I think I’ll take my chances on the ring instead.
ooooh, 2% lit res and -6% quantity but the rest of the rolls were very good (59 life, to boot). Oh Ventor’s Gamble, you tease so.

That you had a generic ring with plenty of other rings available to compare to.
I don’t even know what you are doing or trying to say right now. I’ll just take it from the top.
I came here with a ring, and said I hadn’t found much to compare it to online which I would have hoped would be understood to mean_I had searched on trade sites for similar items_. You either failed to read that part of my post or failed to parse it or I don’t even know what, and immediately followed up with the classic “try searching online”. I explained that I in fact did that.
My “generic” ring sold for 10c. It’s certainly possible I lucked into the worst POE player of all time who still happened to have 10c, but I sort of doubt it. Anyway it’s more than I was expecting (I thought it would probably wind up selling around @sharaleo’s guess) . But it’s not really hard to see why the search you just posted isn’t applicable to my ring. It’s been my experience that people will place value on both IIR and all-res, neither of which you factored into your search. You didn’t even put a minimum on the phys damage (which alters your search noticeably).
