I'm incredibly unlucky or I am doing something wrong ? Should I do higher level maps ?

Check out the spoiler section of the initial post in this thread where Serleth goes into detail about how the exalts/hour calculation was made. As explained in the spoiler the exalts/hr figure is based on Standard league where 300 or so alts is worth an exalt. In new leagues, the currency values are much different and your exalts/hr will drop quite a bit.

Nevertheless, magic-find is really, really useful for wealth generation, especially in new leagues where the cost of gear is rock-bottom compared to Standard.

This. Please read the explanation Hank alluded to. I'll touch on it briefly here as well:

When I left Standard on December 11th, alts were about 360:1 in Standard, and are currently 960:1 in Talisman. Chaos to exalt ratios were roughly 45:1 (Std) to 70-75:1 presently in (Talisman).

And, believe it or not, that 40% IIR that you're missing makes a huge difference in your rate, too.

On the alt/chaos ratios alone, you should be looking at roughly 0.2-0.25ex per hour, at best, in Talisman. Keep in mind two things: that 0.3ex per hour listed in the explanation section was regarding ratios that were 15c and 10-15 fuse (per exalt) less than what Talisman SC is currently trading at. Secondly, keep in mind (generally speaking) that challenge league prices compensate for the exchange rate differences. Take for example Apep's Rage, which you aren't getting for any cheaper than 20c in Standard, and probably spending very close to an exalt on average.

You can get it right now for 2 chaos in Talisman.

Whatever difference you're seeing in not being at roughly 0.2ex/hr comes from the fact that you're missing about 40% IIR and whatever extra time that you're taking during vendor trips, whether you're a smoker, how often you alt-tab to check a stream or look something up, etc. One thing I forgot to include in that explanation is that it does assume you are efficient with your identification, vendoring, and sorting process.

If you go look at my Inventory & Stash Management video, you'll see exactly how long I take vendoring. It's a ridiculously short time frame.

The first vendor trip at ~9:25 is slow for me. I deliberately did it slowly to showcase and talk through the mental process that undergoes my vendor trips. Some people remarked on that timestamp that it was incredibly fast.

The trip at ~12:15 was closer to my normal speed, but still slow so people could quickly glimpse the rolls on items as I was talking through them.

Based on viewer feedback, I'm spending anywhere between five and forty seconds LESS than they are on vendor trips. I didn't realize initially how quickly I was doing them compared to others. Those seconds can add up and could also be a contributing factor in the difference.

I believe you that it works (area damage), but how can you be sure?

Looking at the Gear section of the original post, it looks like you didn't corrupt your 20/20 Increased AOE. Any reason in particular? Mine just hit 20/20 :)

"

I'm planning to kill Atziri soon but I don't know what to expect since I've never killed her before. Should the fight be doable with my setup?

"

I have a quick question: why spec into "Master of Arena"?

"

Any reason to run Carcass Jack over say Greed's Embrace Golden Plate?

Does the extra resi / life from CJ outweigh the IIR/IIQ of Greed's?

"

How do you feel about leech in this build? Would it be worth grabbing the new attack leech nodes next to IR for some extra tank or is it overkill?

I checked dps differences. Rapid Decay is better than empower +1 and I think it will be better as well from +2, but can't confirm it. As 6l maybe I would add slower projectiles instead of empower (+2 to gems different than CA won't change things much).

What would you do next with this bow?

Nothing.

It's done.

Other than the above discussion regarding how we discovered Empower only beats Rapid Decay (assuming vmoddin's calc is accurate) if Empower is level 4.

You wouldn't haku it then elreon? or just not enough value for the cost?

Re RD - unless it's a major difference, I am not re-chroming this again, i've spent too many already because i messed it up lol.

The difference between Empower 3 and RD isn't much, it's like 500dps, 1k with Wither stacks up (8).

It's more significant with Empower 2, but yeah I'm in the same boat as you. I spent like 1500 chromes on mine, so fuck it, I'm keeping it because I will eventually get Empower 4, which beats RD.

I guess you could scour the suffixes then multimod it yeah but that's unnecessary until you're running Carcass Jack or another unique chest, if you plan to.
