How to craft the gear in this PoB
IMPORTANT: Start picking up the bases you need in maps. It's stupidly expensive to buy them and multiple drop every map, just adjust your filter and run some maps.
ilvl 84 is fine for virtually everthing, you don't need T1 Suppress on your chest to get started.
Crafting the Helmet:
-Gather 3-4 Lich Circlets from the ground
-Go to A9/A10 vendor and buy hats ilvl 68-70
-Recomb a Lich's Circlet to ilvl 75-79 (this is important, dont skip this)
-Essence of Spite until One decent ES roll, either flat or %increased and maybe a low roll of res as a suffix
-Bench the other ES prefix, you should have FILLED prefixes at this point and an OPEN suffix
-Hunter's Exalted Orb to slam %Intelligence guaranteed
Estimated costs 3-4div at current prices
Crafting the Chest Piece:
I made a 3-mod Necrotic. Pick up 10-12 of these off the ground for this craft.
-Alt spam them in a tab for T1 Hybrid Eva/ES, Suppress OR Int (your choice), T1 Eva/Es + Stun recovery
-Use this regex sm|mm|nul|bj|iu
-If you have more than one mod on an item, Orb of Annul down to JUST the mod we want
-Gather all of the PREFIX bases and bench +fire res on them. This step is important as it will half your recombination costs
-Recombinate (unpredictable) a 2-prefix base with Hybrid Eva/ES and Eva/Es+Stun recovery (see the item equipped for an example)
-Remove the crafted mod from the suffix of the resulting base with the crafting bench
-Recombinate (unpredictable) the 2-prefix base you just made with a 1-suffix base. It's roughly a 1/8 to hit all 3 mods together. I find this
method better than combining 2x 2-mod bases because the alteration spam and base requirements are much lower.
-Multi-mod, %Increased Evasion/Energy Shield, and %Attributes to finish
-See item equipped for example
Crafting the Shield:
I made a 3-mod shield.
-Acquire 10 or so Titanium Spirit Shields with Shaper influence. You can buy them, or Shaper slam some off the ground, whatever is cheapest
-Alt spam them in a tab for T2/T1 block chance, T1 %Increased energy shield, and Recover 3-5% ES on Block. If it has 2 mods on it, annul down to only 1.
-Use this regex: una|unf|end|yi|ld w
-Recombinate a 2-mod item with PREFIXES only using the unpredictable version of recombs. Make sure you bench +fire res or another suffix to save dust costs
-Remove the crafted mod from the 2-prefix base
-Recombinate a 2-prefix NO CRAFTED MOD base with the Recover 3-5% ES on Block base. It's about a 1/8 to hit all 3 mods together.
-Multi-mod, +2 Socketed Support Gems, DD while Focused (or whatever 3rd mod).
-USE ENERGY BLADE IN THIS ITEM, +2 Socketed Support Gems is BIG for Enhance and your total ES.
Alternative (a bit more expensive) for Shield:
-Recombinate a 2-prefix shield as above on a non-influenced base, then Lock Prefixes --> Reforge Defense. It's a 1/6 to get Recover %ES on Block
Crafting the Boots:
Buy a fractured Warlock base with some res on it:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Mercenaries/w608kBrFb
-Essence of Spite until a 2nd resistance of any type
-Wild Bristle Matron to get a cheaper Suffix Cannot Change
-Veiled Chaos Orb
-Bench Life
-Unveiled Movement Speed (I think this is 99% guaranteed, I can't recall a time it has ever failed so long as life was benched)
-Bench %Increased ES to finish
Crafting the Gloves:
-Buy 3-4 pairs of gloves with the Infamous mod on it, Ideally with %inc armour, %increased evasion, or any of the mods that cannot naturally roll
on a Warlock pair of gloves to make the recomb easier
-Split the 3-suffix gloves to try and isolate the Infamous mod and make transfer easier
-Alt spam a handful of Warlock gloves for T1 ES or T1 %Inc ES, make sure thats the only mod on the glove
-Recombinate (unpredictable) the Warlock base with the Infamous base. If you had %Armour/%evasion, etc as the only prefix on the infamous donor
base you will be guaranteed to ALSO have T1 ES on the resulting Warlock base, which will give you a decent ES pool to start with
-Eldritch Exarch + Eldritch Exalted Orb to fill prefixes and try and hit a second ES mod
-Bench Intelligence (or whatever you need)
Crafting the Belt:
Buy a 13-15% Intelligence Synth belt:

-Bench something decent like WED (see equipped belt for an example)
Crafting 12-p / 8-p Cluster(s):
Option 1 is buy it off trade, they are usually 1-3div. If for some reason you can't get a +3-4 max res, +Int cluster jewel, use 1-socket resonators with Prismatic
fossils to roll those two mods together. Getting %increased effect as a 3rd mod is usually a bit more than just buying it off trade because most int stackers
don't care about that mod, however, it greatly reduces the suffix pressure in the build and this is a min budget setup.
Crafting RMR Cluster:
Same process as above, Ideally you'd get a nice Res roll here or Sublime Form (+10% all res + Grace) along with an Int roll to make gearing and res cap
easy.
Crafting the Amulet:
-Get a Lapis or Turquise Amulet (I used Turqoise because I needed the Dex) with 1% Increased Dmg Per Int
-Buy any amulet with the %Increased Intelligence Crusader mod
-Awakener Orb them together
-Bench non-channelling mana costs as a prefix
If you want some level of guarantee for this, you can spend an extra ~2div per attempt to black morrigan lock it
Amulet Alternative:
Eyes of the Greatwolf with %Increased Attributes and %Increased Global Defenses. Note that you'll need the clarity watcher's mod OR Inspiration in your links
to do this:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Mercenaries/8M7OZEnFV
Crafting the Rings:
Do these last to see what stats / res you need. They are easiest to flip.
-Buy an All Attributes ring fracture for a few chaos:
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Mercenaries/8D6kkoVUV
-Essence of Spite until you get a 3rd stat you want and an open Prefix
-Bench reduced cost of non-challening skills
-Attribute Catalyst
Estimated costs 3-4div at current prices
ALTERNATIVE RING: It's really cheap to buy a reflected mist Int ring right now with 1 other res and one or two negative stats you dont' care about. If you have
a clarity watcher's with reduced cost you can do this easily, just check mana costs.
Budget at time of recording the video.
IMPORTANT: This changes ALL THE TIME, however since it's self-crafted the prices should be more resistant to price fixers
