Not this league though. Finally got my first Andvarius today.

Should pick up nicely the rest of the way now.

you just should ask sellers for adva prices, where b\o is not set. was lucky to buy my 1st for 20c 60%, while average is about exa.
if i had got exa drop 1st tday, i would have had mf setup by day 2 ofcourse.
but if you have to grind dl for that building up currency, it's whole another story

Yeah unfortunately this league I just had a bad run at the start, didn't drop anything valuable so I couldn't get in on the cheap action early.

It's fine, I'll catch up.

Gratz!

Yeah, in 2.0 the situation was the other way round, you had the RNG and I was 'behind', yet still able to get everything. It just took a while longer and competition for items intensifies as more and more ppl reach the map-threshold with their MF-builds.

Question Serleth, do we really need the 20% quant? i mean when rolling maps there's more quant that rarity given now, to that end wouldn't it be better to run more rarity and 0 quant?
Nope.

Map rolls are effectively multiplicative with your gear. Therefore the more quantity you have on gear, the more beneficial higher IIQ maps are to you.

If anything, it'd be more beneficial to sacrifice a bit of rarity to add more quantity.

But the point of this guide isn't to min-max MF; rather to provide a balance between solid MF, survivability, and damage.

btw, i dont think acro is somewhat viable for hc, and i hadnt even hit 70+ maps.
1 error\connect prob or misclick and hello std.

Plenty of HC builds take Acro, including many of my own successful (85+) HC characters.

It's just a playstyle adjustment.

with current hc talisman rates it goes about 8-10 c\hour at ~72 max maps. with 15iiq\260iir and 5l bow(7+ cloud dps, without selling drops)
also, clear speed without AOE sucks hard. about 2\3 of actually normal, so in this tearms faster you kill thing faster you get items item rarity or damage gem in bow is irrelevant. you can cull rares with ft irr etc
