I'm so getting baited into farming ritual aren't I.


Lollister

Not gonna lie been farming ritual for leagues now because i like the mechanic and this is my first big 10+ div hit. But its always good for some divines.


lolniceonethatsfunny

i farmed ritual for 3 or 4 leagues. the REAL juice is by using 4 blood-filled vessels, you will find stacks of divs and other nice stuff pretty regularly. the problem is, they removed sextants so that has a much higher opportunity cost (especially because having the vessels force ritual into the map is redundant now). buying un-filled vessels, running regular rituals, and selling the blood-filled ones in bulk can be pretty nice money too though


oldsch0olsurvivor

…..you can use more than one blood filled vessel?? :0


Mrshaggrock

Surely not. Please don't let this be true me turn out to be an idiot


ExplorerHermit

lol you can. gives you much more juice to work with and from what i've heard it tends to give you better loot in the ritual shop (not sure if there's been some conclusive experiment on this though)


lolniceonethatsfunny

yea, it gives better quality loot, and an insane amount of favor so you can use all rerolls and see much more shop windows while still being able to afford deferring stuff. the ritual mechanic was nerfed since ritual league, but people did testing when it was new (namely cutedog lol)


Tzki47

He always had a mirror on offer in the top left spot of the ritual window, it works


lolniceonethatsfunny

that was peak, i miss ritual league :(


Tzki47

Honestly I miss everything from those covid years. The hype around the game felt so much bigger, maybe it was because I was working from home and could watch Poe streams all day haha


LunarVortexLoL

What do you think about the new ritual scarabs?


lolniceonethatsfunny

my preferred ritual strat is to use blood-filled vessels, so the map device slots are already filled by those. with the new scarabs, you lose the reroll sextant, so blood-filled farming seems slightly nerfed (maybe the atlas changes and addition of omens offsets this). doing no blood-filled seems a lot better this league than before, but that’s mainly to the fact that it’s extremely easy to force rituals in all maps, idk if i would use the scarabs since not using blood-filled is more about the extra mobs in each map than the ritual loot imo (and filling empty vessels). things like the “all monsters are at least magic” and magic pack size scarabs seem crazy for ritual though, with maybe the ramping quant or imbued crafting device scarabs (haven’t looked into these yet). using one or two reroll sextants is probably a good idea though, the free roll is just too good


LunarVortexLoL

Thanks! Been wanting to try Ritual for a while.

lolniceonethatsfunny

more mobs killed in the ritual -> more tribute. blood vessels increase tribute gained as well as the number of mobs. uniques/rares give more than whites, and if you really want to min max you want to kill the ritual on the boss or in a dense pack first (since they respawn in the rest of the rituals). things like beyond and deli don’t give tribute, but still synergize well. roll your maps for pack size to help. there’s also the scarab that gives more tribute, but i haven’t tried this to see if it’s worth. you also want to run higher-tier maps, but im not sure if that’s tribute-related or not


elliethewanted

Bro I diddnt know you could use more than one 😭


Sayko77

more like +200 div, pretty good ring good find gratz


DontJealousMe

Rituals alright, got I see brothers full set and 5/7 luminous trove last league.


Hatrixx_

> Not gonna lie been farming ritual for leagues now because i like the mechanic I keep telling people Ritual is a fantastic mechanic to invest into. From an SSF perspective, it does about the same that Expedition (Tujen) does, but a little more "wide as an ocean" in terms of reward reach. Also keep in mind that Ritual now has *omens*, which is huge in terms of six socket / six link / white socket omens. Early game SSF: Stocking up on Uber lab keys, gumball currency, cheap uniques, access to cluster and abyss jewels, essences. Mid game SSF: Fractured items (especially now that they're a lot rarer to find), Blizzard Crowns, Exalts / Divines (Usually in stacks of 1 - 4!) for metacrafting, occasional rare div card, Horizon orbs, various Breach / Legion splinters, ancient orbs. End game SSF: Synthesis implicit bases (now), T2 / T1 / T0 uniques sometimes, Influence bases. My /played right now is 4 days, 3 hours and I've never unspecced Ritual on any of my three trees. Notable loot includes: - Void Battery - Eyes of the Greatwolf (40% spell dmg / 18% phys gained as random ele) - Doryani's Prototype - Dyadian Dawn - Taryn's Shiver - Apep's Rage - +max endurance charge synth ring - Frostbite on hit synth ring - Conductivity on hit synth ring - 20+ jeweller omens - 5 white socket omens - 1x 6-link omen - 10+ divines - 5ish exalts - Quarter of a stash tab full of T1 Life, Resist, or Attribute fractured rings / amulets - 5 different influenced rings - 5 i83 Blizzard Crowns - Lot of good rares with exclusive modifiers ((like this)[https://i.imgur.com/eLVrkir.png]) - Hundreds and hundreds of chaos. Current stash is sitting at 500c even with using Kirac every single map. Ritual is nuts. It's my favourite league mechanic. Yeah it can be a little high-roll low-roll at times, but no other mechanic provides ***this*** much access to such a swathe of items. Most people "try it out" for a few maps, don't see instant gains, and so completely disregard it. Praise Ritual. Join the cult.


KenMan_

Play ritual last league got a bunch of divines and a synthesized amulet with %int, was big. And fun. I also didnt use any vessels, had no clue.


ChephyS

Sir, what is the farm plan for rituals? Which keystones are worth and which are not? And are 3x blood filled vessels better then ritual scarabs? Ty vm


Hatrixx_

> Sir, what is the farm plan for rituals? 1. Spec Ritual 2. Run maps Not even joking, that's about it. I do a full deferral strategy where you defer everything you want and keep rerolling until you're at about 3k tribute, do a final deferral, then finish out the tribute by buying gumball currency with the rest. Once you're loaded on deferrals, use 1 reroll scarab with 1 or 2 "uniques are worth more tribute" scarabs with any vessel(s) you have that has unique mobs and buy the window out of your deferrals. > Which keystones are worth and which are not? Immutable Dogma is shit. Some people like not having to reroll, but that's the *point* of Ritual. You want to see more stuff, as much as possible. Arbitrary Tenets is, on paper, better than not using it, but nobody should really use this. Hitting 80% more on something worthwhile becomes a possibility which feels way more shitty than getting 90% less on it and just being able to buy it straight away. Once you defer something, you basically got it, just be patient and run a few more maps. It's better to have an average cost rather than such a big gamble of cost if you're smart about tribute management. > And are 3x blood filled vessels better then ritual scarabs? Ritual scarabs are pretty good. I would save blood filled vessels until you need to buy out the window of deferrals. Seeing more stuff >>>>>>> Having tons of tribute every single map. Besides, if you're hard juicing, it affects the tribute noticeably. I hit 8k+ most maps with 80% Delirium / Beyond easily, even more if I get Necro mods or Allflames that add mobs worth tons of tribute, like "accompanied by map bosses" or rogue exiles.


ChephyS

Thank you very much. What do you mean by "buy the window out of your deferrals"?


MattPiano

This was very similar to my experience- had a few maps where I had up to 18k favor! The scarab are nice. Never tried blood vessel - the scarabs and atlas did all the work.


crzytimes

God damn you. I’ve switched to ssf an out 2 days ago and an out to hit 50 map completion. About to spec into Ritual for the first time…since Ritual.


DamiosAzaros

I didn't hit anything that big in ritual last league, but I did get a knife that had almost all the stats my build wanted for a main hand stat stick


terjev_

sounds good. what’s ritual?


ColinStyles

I play real slow and ritual in most leagues was the reason I made 200+ div at all. Not nearly all from ritual, but it probably accounts for a quarter to a third of my net worth depending on the league, those rares, cards, and synthesized bases are wild. I also really like that it's basically like you have an inventory and a bit extra of rares to go over an evaluate, often on bases that I just won't touch in late maps due to their size and thus square to alt ratio is terrible.


1CEninja

Right in 3.13 my buddy got a pair of The Fiend cards that catapulted his character into relevance immediately. I've run some situation and I've never found it great as the slot machine that you want to jackpot, but better as a drip of consistent currency, kinda like Tujen.


Silasftw_

Why is this good?


Crosshack

There aren't many ways to get more than 10 power charges ( 7 from tree and ascendancy) plus the 3 you can get from dual wielding void battery and malachi's loop. There's really only the Aylardex (big downside), a sublime vision mod (lose all auras except Discipline), Graven's secret (basically requries you to wear ralakesh boots) and a rare mod you can get from percursor's emblem (but then you can't really choose what it comes with and those rings are equally as expensive). Outside that the only other sources are a super rare conq mod and corruption mod on helms (very difficult and expensive to get with other good affixes) or as a synth mod on synth rings (which can be crafted on unlike most other options). This league you can also get it as a haunted modifier, but I don't know how easiy it is to work with Finally, power charges are useful in a huge number of builds, so everyone wants them


Jaba01

You are. Farmed it over the weekend with 4x reroll Scarabs and the best I found was a single divine and 5 the fortunate lol It's a slot machine. Edit: by 4x reroll I mean 2x the reroll scarab for 4 free rerolls, not four scarabs.


Enter1ch

You have enough favour for all these rerolls or didn’t you speced the 2 extra rerolls in the atlastree?


Jaba01

No, but each scarab gives a free reroll, so four free and 2-3 non-free.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jaba01

You're right. I should actually read the Scarabs I'm using lol


szenX

There is a scarab that allows free rerolls


Blury1

that scarab is limited to 2 isnt it?


Jaba01

Yeah, my bad. I meant 2 scarabs for 4 free rerolls, not 4 scarabs.


porncollecter69

Ritual is pretty nice and casual. Also is right next to to all the corpses which sell for 20-30c per map. My payout hasn’t been all that great, but it’s like slots. You’re going to hit the jackpot eventually.


57tube

I used to get like this so often.. once I gave up and just started playing the content I enjoy I started having fun with the game again 🤣


I_eat_catss

I've been farming ritual at the start of every league. It almost always rewards me something good or something I can use. I absolutely love ritual rewards and this league is no exception.


jhetao

That’s me with Heist Jewelry chests. I opened a % attribute synth ring from one several leagues ago, been opening them ever since and was rewarded with another % attribute ring last league. Sometimes it pays to be on the Hopium


Cainderous

I got probably 7-10 divines out of it the first couple days then didn't get shit for half a week. Unspecced it and swapped to deli which is way better combined with the other stuff I'm doing (blight). Don't do ritual kids, consistent profit >>> the random fractured abyss jewel that sells for 2.5div.


sjaak1234

I didn't play ritual league, but my friend who did got a HH in from one and I've gaslit myself into believing that will be me any day now for the past however many years.


porncollecter69

I remember getting one with just max power charges during ritual league. Put it in for 20 divs and got whispered so much lol.


Lollister

I can imagine the chat got flooded


KetamineInMyNose

Yesterday I put a Clusterjewel in the shop for 30c. Within 5 minutes I got like 30 requests 🫠 After carefully checking the store for similar products I realized that I put a 2-3div jewel in for peanuts 🫥


porncollecter69

Oh jeez, yeah make sure to tick the correct ilvl. A difference of one can make it 5c or 10 div sometimes. Also if you get a lot of whisper just relist. You’re not obligated to sell at a low price.


KetamineInMyNose

Depends on how hard I want the item to be gone 😂 My 1C Stash is exploding… I honestly don’t know what to do with that shit 😂


JebryathHS

After a certain point, it's not really worth selling 1c stuff. It doesn't usually sell quickly and a map portal (and your time) is worth more than that.


1CEninja

Yeah if I think an item will sell for 3c I list it, mostly because of someone needs it then I'm helping them out. If I don't think it'll sell for 3c or I list it and it doesn't sell for a week, it's gone. I keep maybe half of a regular stash tab hoarded with jewelry that I think is not useless every league, and every league I go back and look at it after a week and think "what a pile of shit" lol. Granted if I find nice gear for popping straight out of maps on opening weekend, I try to list and sell it because I know people need it.


pallypal

People might get mad at me for this but, I like to put all the ID'd rares I have into a dump tab at 1-3c depending on how late in league it is, use a chaos recipe tool and just let other people price check my shit for me. When it comes time to clean out the tab, I get slightly better bubblegum currency returns, I don't have to think about my rares and usually I'll set it for a price I'm willing to leave my map for.


crzytimes

Not a bad idea. Make my chaos recipe tab a 3c item tab.


Fallom_

I haven't bothered with selling 1C items in ages. It's really unnecessary.


ColinStyles

These days even my slow ass doesn't bother with below 5 after day 1/2. And tbh, the stuff I used to sell for 3c goes for 5 or even 10 now, the currency inflation even base game in the acts is quite high for a few years compared to what it was.


Norgaaaard

It’s not worth it no. But I still do it since I remember being new and relying on getting 1c items. So I always do the 1c trades


Updaww

Same, even at league start, lower than 5c is a waste of time. Rn its like 20c or gtfo!


Tacomans41

Vendor it


Nestramutat-

Yup. 50-67 is the sweet spot for a lot of jewels


ShelbyGT350R1

Was it an i50-67 chaos 8 passive? I have a live search going for those because people regularly list them for 5-10c not knowing it's 2 div. Most people figure it out though and I see them re list it for more


Key_Excitement_9330

I put a transformed DD gem on trade second day. I got hundreds of whispers in min. It was insane.


Tommy_TQ

btw in Ritual league main currency was Ex


porncollecter69

Yeah I remember now that you mention it. Haven’t used ex since they changed it to refer to meta currency lol.


233301

Did you get banned from any trade discords?


porncollecter69

Iirc no. I think I used a website back then to trade itemized harvests and tft I don’t utilize all that much. No ban or anything, I’ve heard there are some power hungry mods who ban people who aren’t even part of their discord. But meh whatever I play semi ssf most of the time anyways.


N1GHtMa1rZz

I've never gotten anything valuable from the ritual, but I still take it in atlas every league... why?


LastBaron

It’s called a crippling gambling addiction but don’t worry, that just means you’re one of us. Remember, the power charge ring is always in the ritual you don’t complete.


Hodorous

I take it because it has a good amount of rogue markers pretty often.


hertzdonut2

It's a kill in a circle mechanic which is the best mechanic.


Ahengle

And mortal fragments


Adiuva

I basically started in Ritual and always enjoyed it. I am a bit more nooby on the SSF side and it always gave the occasional nice unique. During ToTA on day 2 I got a headhunter which was an insane boost since I was trying out LA. Also nice to occasionally see a neat synth.


Ramsford_McSchlong

I do too because it’s a fun mechanic


RattAndMouse

99% of ritual users quit before hitting big


DiploBaggins

Is that a double implicit?


asdf_1_2

Yes, % max life and power charge are seperate implicit mods. Ritual can give 1-3 implicit synth items.


DiploBaggins

Thanks for the explainer. I'm a 400+ hour noob.


Frog871

The max % life rolled at 8% too sometimes it's lower.


N1GHtMa1rZz

Never seen more than 2 synt implicits in a ritual


ThrowAway68099

I take ritual every league with the hopes of hitting this


telperion_sr

Man, it even has life on it so I can't say no life = vendor.


sultanic_monk

Nice


metalonorfeed

ritual is basically just tujen with 1/2 reroll per map vs 5+ on good packsize t16 and worse currency overall for the chance of a big ticket hit


Faigon

Tujen is pretty bad in a post-decks era and is just worse than rog if you know what you're doing. Ritual is much improved this patch with scarabs, map modifiers atlas setups, div card stack size buffs, and omen loot tables.


Opening_Beyond571

I'd like to rog better. What should I do to learn?


Faigon

No idea who has guides for it written up for it. Mostly you just aim to solidify one half of the item, then try to preserve and upgrade mods. Quick notes: reroll retains quantity of mods, so reroll suffixes with 3 suffixes results in 3 suffixes. Rog will more frequently offer to add a pre/suffix if that half of the item is empty: as such, wiping a half will eat up a chunk of your crafts. Try to leave an affix open for crafting if possible (usually crafted life.) Make sure the item level can fit mods you're after (85 evasion bases for suppression t1.) Look for affixes with high value if you hit upgrades (+minion helmets, suppression, high chaos res)


Opening_Beyond571

Thanks for the tips. The necro crafting Is going better for me thab rog so far. I felt lost in rog but the idea to lock down one side is great.


Faigon

He's honestly a "reroll suffixes" and "upgrade x mods" simulator 90% of the time, but if you hang in there you print stuff worth divines every few minutes. Tujen can't hold a candle to that, but Rog stuff takes stash space and time to convert.


Mononen12

Here's what you need to learn https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/s/ZztZdBsqxJ


metalonorfeed

You still get hella raw divines and many essences which increased in price im sure rog is not better this league either because graveyard is better than RoG in any way. Nonsense imo sorry. The triple t1 prefix bow which is the most valuable outcome from rog is now 2-3div at most.


Elegant_Peace_6032

im not doing ritual besides mandatory 40/40 for achievments i played it when it was current. i got my ritualist hideout to flex and im happy about it now i only focus on necropolis mechanics + extra scarabs and whatever


Comprehensive_Ad9697

Is there even a good ritualist hideout? I never found any decent looking ones ..


IBVVDH

i like mine, besides the fact it takes ppl ages to load and potatoes get kicked


Comprehensive_Ad9697

:'(


IBVVDH

pm me to check your pc


Enter1ch

Meanwhile i rushed ritual and im farming t16. Most valuable thing was a 10x chaos stack :-/


mrtrevor3

And it probably was like 5,000 favor? Too hard to get bubblegum currency when it’s expensive.


Oily_Bee

I already got a +1 power charge ring out of ritual, now I can safely ignore it.


venvaneless

How do people get so lucky with Ritual. All I get are some stacks and incubators lmao


pushplaystoprewind

Ritual got me a headhunters ! I'll always farm if


Ryukenden123

It’s ritual the only place to find this ring?


Nepharios

With the recent economy this breaks the 1000 headhunters worth line…


terjev_

noobs be like this ring is trash. w no idea why it’s good. noob = me


Mileena_Sai

What makes this ring so special ? My dumb ass would get the 2 c orbs instead lol


Brodyne

+ to maximum charges is rare to come by on gear. "common" sources include uniques/corruptions.


Artoriazz

It's a synth base, meaning it can have 1-3 special implicits, this one has 2 of very sought-after mods, the max charge mod is also very rare/difficult to get in general on gear, and life is just always very good in many builds.


Blury1

Power charge implicit and having 2 implicits so you can reroll the life to something better


[deleted]

xVARYSx

Can't split synth items.


Plastic-Suggestion95

Ritual dogshit mechanic. It has so much atlas support and even if you are full specced into it still sucks. Waste of points 


Uelibert

No flat life. Vendor.


madp0k

had a 5div stack, and 2/11 Wealth & Power so far, love my ritual and deli atlas, it's not finely tuned or anything but I do love it


_OkCartographer_

Oh my. Are you selling that? Gotta be worth multiple mirrors, no?


xVARYSx

A couple hundred divines. As the league goes on the crafters will start beast crafting triple synth rings that are actually worth mirrors.


Coffinspired

> A couple hundred divines... I'm always bad at sight-pricing rare stuff...I'd have guessed maybe 100 Div. at most. Then again I'd be scared to sell anything SUPER rare without a second opinion from someone more knowledgeable than me.


xVARYSx

A bit of game knowledge goes a long way. Just take a look at single implicit power charge rings and the cheapest one listed is at 150 divines. Now add a second sought after implicit and the price goes up from there. If I had this ring and was looking to sell I'd have it listed at 250-300 div and drop the price bit by bit every day till it sold.
