People who say this kinda RNG scares people off have never seen how many people play the lottery.

Playing the lottery consists of laying a 5 spot on the counter and grabbing a ticket and heading home to wait for the drawing to see if you won.

Playing the "ability layout" lottery in POE consists of massive amounts of farming and ridiculous amounts of clicking orb/item.

sooooooooo i have heard people say 30 or 40 fusings are an exalted orb. For 1k you could have gotten a 6 link for MUCH cheaper. Man, math is so hard....

a 6L without the stats you want, or no stats at all.

abour 400 jewels ( and 57 fusings ) chest is ilvl 77

i wil not use any more fusings till i have @ least 500 of them :P

to make sure i can 5 link it egain b4 i run out of fusings :)

I got lucky with fuse but unlucky with exalt today:


The exalt was the crappy %armor/stun recovery mod. If it had rolled a flat % armor mod of 100% or more, it would have been one of the best chests on the server imo. C'est la vie. At least it didn't roll reflect ^^

After that I decided it wasn't worth trying to 6l. Took about 80 jorbs and exactly 14 fuses to get the 6s 5l, and it will do just fine until I find something special for end game.

Im the big noob who rolled a 6l last week and accidentally jewler orbed it when i meant to chrom.

It was a 6 sock lvl 53 maj armor that i used 6 fusing on.

The prefixes/sufixes is where the RNG should be. The ability to use or not use skills should not be RNG.

It´s there. The argument of skill/gem and appropriate color/links is a killer phrase. People with this argument most times implying that you´re not able to progress or do end game content without a 5L-6L. This is a untrue statement, proofed by experienced players.

And 4L is for everybody easily obtainable. Some people even argue that 5L is fairly easy to obtain.

It would cost me an exalted, maybe two to buy a 5-link. It has cost me over 10 exalteds to fuse one and I still haven't got it.

And to the point of "is not necessary": I killed Merciless Piety on HC in level 40 gear, does that mean level 50+ gear should be nigh impossible to get "because it's not necessary to complete the game"?

I'll join this club. 450 fusings down, no 6L yet

Just passed 550 myself. However, I did finally get the socket colors I wanted:



P.S. Not bitching about fusing mechanics

EDIT: Although I may just have more patience than others, because I'm already using

450 fusing orb burned , not a single 5L
