Crafting guide
Helmet: Need a janus base, can be any helmet(better if it's dex or int base).
1) Annul until the janus mod (60% rarity) is the only suffix on the helmet.
2) Get your ideal base (ancient mask i84) and use screaming rage essence/annul until it's the only suffix
3) Recomb them, because of the way we set this up, the janus mod can never get removed. So keep recombing until it lands on the correct base (50/50)
4) When you transfer the mod, use a eldritch ember and fill prefixes with eldritch exalt, fracture for a 1/4
If the fracture fails you just recomb again, same 50/50 and same method (only 1 suffix on both helmets, with the base you wanting to use having str essence)
5) Once you have the fracture, you now want to finish the suffix - use the fossil combo hollow-opulent-sanctified until t1 rarity on suffix
6) Make sure you use a eldritch ember and now prefix is just crafted with Eldritch chaos, regular exalts and annuls. Just keep spamming till you hit life/rarity.
(eldritch chaos -> exalt till 3 mod > repeat. If you hit t1 rarity or t1 life, annul down to 1 mod, block mana and exalt slam.)
Gloves: Need Cold, fire or lightning temple mod (you can harvest swap these)
1) This is going to be the exact same method as the helmet above for transfering the base. Annul until the temple mod (cold res/inc dmg) is the only suffix on the gloves.
2) Get your ideal base (phantom mitts i84) and use screaming rage essence/annul until it's the only suffix
3) Recomb them, because of the way we set this up, the temple mod can never get removed. So keep recombing until it lands on the correct base (50/50)
4) When you transfer the mod, use a eldritch ember and fill prefixes with eldritch exalt, fracture for a 1/4
If the fracture fails you just recomb again, same 50/50 and same method (only 1 suffix on both gloves, with the base you wanting to use having str essence)
5) Once you have the fracture, you now want to finish the suffix - use the fossil combo hollow-shudderingt-sanctified until for t1 attack speed
Depending on fossil prices, it might be worth to also annul suffix until 1 empty suffix/abyss socket, craft "suffix cannot be changed" and reforge speed for t1 attack speed.
6) Make sure you use a eldritch ember and now prefix is just crafted with Eldritch chaos, regular exalts and annuls. Just keep spamming till you t1 life
(eldritch chaos -> exalt till 3 mod > repeat.)
7) Craft "suffix cannot be changed" and use a veiled exalt, it's a 50/50. Before unveiling you want to craft Fire conversion to block it.
You want to unveil lightning or cold conversion or projectile speed
As a cheaper option you can also just craft conversion and exalt a random prefix.
Boots: Get phantom boots (i84)
1) use hollowed fossil/fractured fossil on your boots to save cost (this will make 2 boots with 2 abyss sockets) - Fracture 1/4 (if theres more than 4 mods, use eldritch annul on prefix).
2) Scour the boots so they become magic, spam alts/aug until t1 life.
Any any point if you annul the t1 life, go back to step 2
3) Regal the boots, if they hit a prefix you annul. Craft "prefix cannot be changed" and use veiled chaos. If it adds another prefix, annul it off.
4) Block mana and hope to unveil movement speed/ms if not hit recently
5) Use an eldritch ichor and craft suffix now. You'll want to use eldritch chaos/exalt until t2 resist/t2 int or better.
6) craft your last prefix and your done.
Chest: Need a grasping mail with the esh mod "1-5 light dmg" (you can make these by vendoring synaptic rings, check poewiki)
1) You now need to transfer this mod with recombs onto any dex or int base, the base here doesn't matter, just make sure it's int, dex or int/dex hybrid.
Similiar to the gloves/helmet, you can always save the mod once its isolated on the prefix and off the grasping mail.
2) Start off by splitting the grasping mail with black morrigan beast, this will isolate the modifier onto a 2 mod chest.
Once you transfer and isolate the mod onto any dex or int base, now get your ideal base (i86 necrotic), use Screaming essence of dread on the necrotic and isolate the mod on prefix
Now at this point, you can never lose the modifier, as long as both mods are the only prefix. (armour prefix on necrotic with no other prefix and esh mod on other chest with no other prefix).
When you transfered the mod onto the necrotic, use eldritch ichor and eldritch exalt to fill, so you can 1/4 fracture.
If you fail the fracture, get another necrotic base and do the same as before. Isolate screaming essence of dread mod and recomb - Repeat until you win fracture.
3) Spam any resist essence until t1 spell suppression
4) craft "suffix cannot be changed" and veiled chaos - OR lock suffix and reforge chaos to settle on the easier t1 or t2 chaos suffix, this choice is up to you (veiled chaos unveil might take a while).
5) Make sure exarch is dominant on prefix (use greater eldritch ember) and craft prefix with eldritch chaos/exalt/annuls until t1-t2 hybrid %/hybrid flat
Quiver: Buy a fractured +1 arrow or T1 multi base, preferable on feathered arrow quiver. Needs to be at least ilvl 81, (ilvl 86 is ideal though)
1) Spam Torment essence until you hit T1 multi (or +1 arrow if you have a fractured multi base).
2) You now need 2 empty prefixes and 1 empty suffix. Annul if you need to, high chance to brick and if it does, back to step 1.
3) Craft cannot roll attack and use a combination of exalts/annuls until your desired life/increased damage with bow skills.
When you have "craft cannot roll attack" you wont be able to annul your +1 arrow, or multi or flat physical damage. And your only exalt outcomes are maximum life and increased damage with bows skills.
12 passive cluster: Need fractured attack speed if going for "Small add 10 life" or Fractured effect or res if going for 4% increase damage. Base has to be ilvl84 12p bow cluster
1) This is a long and annoying proccess, be warned.
2) Spam harvest reforge life if using fractured attack speed - Spam reforge speed if using fractured effect or fractured res.
3) When you hit 3/4 mods, you exalt/annul and hope to hit. You can also use "reforge more likely"
Explode Cluster: Fracture unspeakable gifts on a 8 passive chaos cluster
1) Use refracting fog to reroll the cluster into bow or two handed base (have to do this after the fracture)
2) Use harvest reforge phys to roll explode and exalt/annul a third noteable (you want the last noteable to be in the back, so you save 2 points).
Abyss jewels: Fracture "8% attack speed if you've dealt a crit recently" on a searching eye jewel ilvl 82
1) Use harvest reforge crit until global crit multi or spam until crit multi/high life (depends on prices)
2) Spam exalts/annul until ideal 4 mods.
