yo just wanted to record a little video. I was doing some mths before I got my dishes done CU all my workers were out of gold. I knew they would be because I only farmed enough to get them working like six seven hours last night. So I popped on quick Farm my gold. But I just want to make a quick little update video. Talk about the league mechanic. Give you guys some tips. What currency I farm. How the build's going and all that. So and uh for all you other Auto zerkers there'll be some extra tips at the end just for you specifically. But as for how the build's going. It's been a lot of fun. I'm not going to lie man slams running through the campaign was totally free. You just Thunder all the way through pop a war cry you do crazy damage right like do a cur dude everything was just like getting one or two shot. I'm just running around and dude I'm just slamming and it was Heaven okay it was great going through the

atlas totally fine up to Red mths. You know, like, no problems. Uh, a little bit squishy, but that's kind of just like how I built it. Just to get a little bit faster, you know, just running around doing ground slam. I mean, I'm Earth shatter now. I'll talk about that. Uh, why exactly I did that. But it's been going great, and I actually had a lot of fun playing slams. I'm so glad the auto zering play style. Oo, I love it. Can't wait to make some more upgrades. I'm like planning my whole build out today. I was like, oh, I'm going to get this. I'm going to get an echo's creation today. Going to six-link the axe or maybe recommend a new one. We'll talk about that too. But, uh, yeah, I got some pretty decent slots. I got this. I need to roll this. This is just like I used it 'cause it had the 8 PDR and kept my res, and I had the implicits on it, right? Fizz shift all.

that but got a nice big axe. This was a pretty de pickup. I just like bought this from some dude uh on day one for 130 chaos. That's kind of crazy. That is actually kind of crazy uh but I got to upgrade this. I really don't like the karui chopper base. It's too slow even though I have T2 attack speed. Uh it's like dude it's it's real it's bad okay. I'd like a I'd like a better base just for extra attack speed right my leaf slams my ground slams especially when I'm getting to the point in the build where I'm going to have so much damage anyways. I'd rather get my clear speed up but the build's been going fantastic been farming it up just enjoying you know not having to do so many buttons just pressing and during cry. I even just added that yesterday pressing and during cry seismic cry and then just pop berserk vulnerability is going to get automated eventually soon as I get this six link probably today cuz you know

actually got the currency for it now after farming all them Essences, but let's talk about the league mechanic. Uh, because the build's going great obviously. I think everybody who's playing slams is enjoying slams. Um, yeah, I mean if you're not enjoying the zerker kind of play style, you can always swap the jugernaut, and if you want a little bit more damage and speed, you can always swap the zerker, right? It's an ascendency respect, and not too much else changes with the build. It's all going to be the same kind of generic points: you get war cry, you get life, you get ax nodes, you know, you get your max res, you get, right, like it's all kind of the same. Uh, a quick little jug versus zerker, I guess for those who care. Zerker gives attack speed and damage. Juggernaut doesn't die, that's simple as that. Uh, so if you want to damage in attack speed and you're a juggernaut, swap the zerker. If you wanted to not die more, swap the Jug.

um just understand what you're giving up which is attack speed and damage or dying a little bit more all right leak mechanic thoughts uh leak mechanics [ __ ] I love the leue mechanic okay this is really cool I love this stuff I haven't upgraded my people too much cuz I was farming um Essences and white Maps yesterday but this I love this stuff I love getting like all my ore I love like stacking the bars getting theric dust and all of this um as for like cute little tiffs I mean I can't just like sit here and like Circle Le mechanic right uh my stuff is like getting pretty high right Rank 10 smelting seven farming I kind of got stalled yesterday cuz I was doing Essences uh and I wasn't getting too much gold anymore but red Maps give like 5K plus depending on the red map uh which is really nice and it feels like anytime I need a little bit of gold like this morning I just popped in did I

think two random red maps and I've got enough gold to keep it running for two hours. You know, so I can do my dishes, get my breakfast, and not have to worry about anything. This is really cool though. So for shipping, for your shipments, here's a cute little tip that I learned. Things have G the shipments you want to do food, but more importantly, you want to fill out whatever their happiness meter is. Right? But the food gives currency, so they're going to say like, I don't want to check my shipment. I'm going to wait until the stream starts. I just, you know, like I feel like I'm going to scam them. So I'm not going to check the shipment now, but you give whatever they want, right? You give whatever they want, and then you give food, 'cause food gives currency. You give, I think it is, there's a Reddit post about this. I'll link down below, but you give a certain amount of dust. It's like 500 dust, I believe it is, and that will give you some multiplier.

right. And the more dust you give, the huge diminishing returns are received in return. So you really just do, I think it's like 50 to 500, it's like 2 to 2.5. And then what hitting three becomes like some large number of thousands of dust, right? So it doesn't really take much. It might even be 50 dust. It might even be as low as that. Just a little bit and you get a huge multiplier on that. So you do the dust every time, right, without fail. And then you should also only do bars. Only do bars. The bars are worth four times as much for like the happiness. Like thank you for giving the supplies we want. Thing worth four times as much. And it only takes one ore to make one bar, right? Yeah, yeah. It's just like it's free, right? You should never do ores. And now I feel stupid 'cause I gave them. I gave ores before. But the bars are just four times more and it's a one to

one so it's not like you're losing anything so it sucks you know the smelters get your smelting up uh cuz I have such a surplus of ore it is insane. I have so so many ores my smelters are so far behind but I have so many bars so whatever you know croppers are doing good and all that uh but it seems like the limiting resource for all this is gold. 40K gold to upgrade to rank 11 12,000 gold here right like all I'm missing to get more upgrading and all this 33 gold for my farming it's always gold and so that's my focus today is going to be farming gold uh and another great way to waste gold is on these white map Farmers okay this stuff sucks do not get baited you should probably do this last unless you're going to try to be that lucky reditor that gets a mirror okay check this out okay two people died I had I these are level five they're level five mappers okay I spent thousands of gold on these okay I will

reveal this cuz I know it's going to be nothing. All right, we get boom boom for like a few thousand gold. I'm just going to give this to rock to disenchant. Boom, we got that, and wow, that was great. Okay, that was literally probably 8,000 gold right there. Not worth it. I'd rather have that for the auction house. I'd rather have that to upgrade my recombinator or whatever. And speaking of Recombinating, it seems like according to some testing standard, some anecdotal evidence from other Redditor comments, recommending has been changed and you cannot carry over mods that can't be found onto others. So you can't carry Global defense on a grass fil onto another base, and it seems like you also cannot carry an Essence mod onto an item that has an Essence mod on it as well. So they're a little bit more strict, I should say, not a little really a lot more strict with the rec combinators. Also, the chances are much lower at carrying over high-tier mods until this becomes much higher.

tier Rank, and it kind of makes sense that you don't get the full power of recombinator for, you know, like 2,000 gold or something. It kind of makes sense. It kind of sucks, but you know, it is what it is. As long as when we upgrade this, it gets a lot better, maybe, you know, a fraction of that old Power would be nice. But just keep in mind, Rec comoda, it's going to be a little bit rough unless you're doing some really basic stuff on the low levels. Uh, so you know, you're going to need that gold, which means you're going to need to run them red maps. And yeah, skip the map device. I think that about covers all this. Yeah, just make sure you're like hiring the right people. You got to fire them right, kick them out. Uh, they don't level up, you just kick them out, kill them or something, and get the new people. And that about covers most of it. The shipments, oh, another thing. A lot of people are sleeping on it, the shipments.

they're like currency. I didn't get a Divine bars gives gear. It kind of sucks. Oh, the gear might actually disenchant for extra dust. I noticed that and some of my Chatters did too that it was giving like much more dust uh from rag but it might just be cu the gear was like a little bit more well-rolled and it totally could just be that but you know either way you know you get gear just like put it in there. Uh, it's an easy way to not have rares on your filter that you pick up anymore and you just like feed over to Rong. You just turn your bars into it cuz what else are you going to do with them. Um, but let's go on to how the essence Farm went cuz lean sick you know what else is there to say got a little bit more to learn with oh no no the shipments. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry the ruins okay you should do shipment for ruins. We're still a little bit uh questioning where the runes

specifically come from. If certain ports give certain runes, it seems like that way for some, but we're going to need so much more ship upgrades, and you know, so much more time into it to see where the runes exactly come from, but that is an important thing too, right? It's not just currency, not just gear, you also want to get those runes 'cause the runes are really valuable, and they unlock some really powerful enchants, so that's something to keep in mind as well. All right, so Essence farming, um, pretty much impossible in red maps without, like, some nutty gear, uh, and I say that because I was running Crystal resonance, but even without Crystal resonance, man, like, I don't know if it's the toughness changes or if I forgot how crazy Essences are, but like I'm running around, I did my Maven, I did my Uber Elder last night, uh, you know, I died, you know, the Maven was rough CU, I was tilted, but Uber Elder, I, you know, I died once, I just like ate some random

thing like whatever um, but like, man, dude, these Essences are just brutal. Like, they have more HP than whatever boss, they have more damage. Like, it's just, it's so nuts. If you take the remnant of Corruptions out, they get a lot easier, but even then in red Maps, it was whatever, uh, so I just did them in yellow Maps, blasted and made some currency, which is nice. I still have some stuff to sell, some Essences to flip over, um, but it's so easy now to farm a bunch of Essences. You can just buy the scarabs on the marketplace, sell them on the marketplace, and all your random ones you can upgrade and flip with the Harvest bench. You just instant buy some blue juice, flip your Essences over. These were crazy money. I thought they have crashed so much faster than they did, but you had things like deafening rths selling for like 8 chos each, U defining contempt still five or six C each, defining greed 3.5, like some of these shrieking hatred.

you know two to three, uh, that's pretty baller, man. This is some good money. Oopsies, this is some really good money for not really requiring much at all, especially with this on the map device. If you can't even buy the scarabs, you've just got Essence for six chaos, and you get a bunch of them. It's pretty nice, dude. Look at this right here: six chaos for four Essences in your map. It's just free money, so that's an easy way to get some currency in yellow Maps if you can handle them. You do still kind of need a powerful build even for the yellow map ones, even in like normal or blue Maps. Uh, some of them can still get really rough if you're doing and what I was doing, which also made them really rough, was I was using the four scarabs of essence, right? You just add them in there, and then I was doing a sense. I was I had to buy these individually, but it was really worth it. You buy the ascent, and then it upgrades the tier and

so the map boss I was doing had, like, you know, seven deafening and a few shrieking Essences in it, 'cause every map I had was like 10 or 11 Essences in the map, but that was good currency, man. Um, but it sucks I missed out on all that gold. That is a downside, and that is why today I plan on doing an ambush plus blue juice Farm. It's going to be this one right here. I got this off of milky's sheet. Go check him out, milky BK Pue. He's got this Google sheet with a bunch of links and whatnot. Um, but this seems a lot of fun. Blue juice sells for pretty good, and I need to farm some to be able to do my maps, and you just get boxes. You're just going to add boxes. You just go in there. You're going to farm some gold, farm some of this. I might add like some extra map boss chance, uh, just so I can go ahead and, uh, you know, farm some extra whatever, but I don't know Guardians are worth you

know kind of kind of stinky, so I probably won't do that actually. But yeah, you just farm blue alars. It's going to be pretty free. Whatever I get, I should be able to sell easily in the auction house. You know, you block some stuff, you get some scarabs, you block other things. I'll get some t17 maps, I'll do some of those. And the plan today for me, at least, is to get Echo for creation. Uber shaper right now costs about 100 chaos to run, and Echo sells for four div. So that's pretty good, you know, that's pretty good. It's a 50% drop, so you know, you really just like make the money back pretty easy. If you get the ties of Time belt, you get six div. So I'll probably do some upgrades, and maybe we'll have our hand like doing a couple of those to get the helmet. Superber shaper is not not too difficult, or I'll just buy it. I don't know, Uber shaper, he might pen me.

but uh you know, I got decent all res. Going to get more later too. I don't even think I no. I do have it on the tree. Oh, and there's Jewels. We can get so many jewels, guys. Dude, there's so many ways to get so tanky so easily right now. It's so nice. I think I bought one last night. Did I put it in? Where did I put that? I had a jewel that I got. Did I just not even equip it? Might just be in my tab. Uh, I bought one. You can get them. Oh, right here. Plus two Max fires. Plus One Max lightning. That's so crazy. I might just get like a couple of these. Like, I'm over it, dude. I'll miss out on a little bit of damage, a little bit of life to, uh, to cap my Max res out like that. Is so cool. I still can get one to two on this body armor once this is all finished. Get some on my boots. My helmet's going to get swapped. I think I could get one on my my

glove too we'll see on that though. I might just want the exerted attack damage and attack speed depending on which one is there. But yeah, so many upgrades, so much exciting stuff to look forward to. Um, okay, but now we've got some problems to fix with the build. Uh, a lot of people leveling slams might have noticed they cost a lot of Mana. It's not too hard to fix that. This is for the auto zerkers section of the video. It's not too hard to fix Mana. What I did was I picked this right here while I was leveling. Gives attack speed leech. And then you take the 100% recovery Mastery. And then you can kind of just life tap your main attack skill like even in act two act three. And that made it just absolutely free, right? No more worry. All you have to do is press your Mana flask for your leap slam. And if you want, I took this to reduced attack, uh, this thing. And then the 10 damage, excuse me, the 10 reduced Mana.

cost, and then you can take the life Mastery for another skills. Cost 15%, and so if you do this like this, pretty much covers it. If your main skill is life tapped, and I pretty much kept that on life tap until I got Elon minus Mana jewelry. And once you have that, all you need is the reservation this, and you should be pretty good. I have reduced cost on my helmet, but you know, I have 90 Mana, it just makes it more comfortable. And I hit this, you know, just like rolling random ones, I wouldn't even keep that in the end anyways. And it's not built with this in mind, um, but yeah, man, it's pretty pretty easy to solve Mana. I was surprised, you just keep like a little Mana flask on you if you're uncomfortable, but it really is just mainly life tapping it until you get Elon jewelry, and it's simple as that. As for survival, the survival is not so bad as long as you're not doing Essences. It gets really bad if you're

trying to farm Essences but as soon as you get like fizz shift implicit on your helmet, Fizz shift on your body armor with some physical damage reduction, you get some armor pieces and the minimum of power war cry. Plus warning call which gives you armor per war cry recently and then your war cries are popping all the time. You know I'm getting like seismic cry so I get more armor from that too. So like flast up I'm more crying I would more cry more in another Zone but it's like 30k. It'll be more like with my auto exerts popping off and all of that. Cuz I can't press these fast enough and thank God they don't pop in your hideout anymore spamming your eardrums. Um but it's prettyy comfy you know with some fish shift with whatever with whatever else I'll get it a little bit more comfy but for now it's pretty good until I get like the higher Giger armor bases and all of that as

far as for Earth shatter ground slam and all of that uh honestly I'm probably going back to ground slam today uh just because I'm farming jungle Valley and I don't need to try to kill Essences really quickly uh before they kill me. It's really annoying so I needed the single Target right this it's a huge cone right it's really hard to beat this while you're mapping especially with seismic cry AOE. Really hard to beat that much coverage um but the thing is with Earth shatter you do a couple attacks and when you war cry spikes explode you can kind of see the circle there and so this is very nice for setting up a bunch of damage and with your auto war cry is also popping them you know you can do a little bit of manual here with your enduring and whatever while around cool down your auto cries will pop off uh so let's just like show that in like blood Aqueduct or something uh but it really is just like ground slam for see we got my auto war cry and one

more thing you'll do uh I forgot to mention is General cry because it has a lower cool down. You'll use this instead of like battle mage cry uh until you get the six-link, and then you probably use it instead of uh infernal cry uh once you have like the link setup here um. But yeah, General cry has a lower cool down, so it just pops the spikes faster. That's literally all it does. Otherwise, you can pop them manually with your seismic pop them manually with your enduring. It just does more single Target damage. I really only did that for essences for Uber Elder and for Maven. If you're just farming, it is probably just going to be so much more comfortable just do this, and you don't have to pop anything, right? You just pop your size M boom, and it's big. Uh, I was pretty simple, pretty easy, and you know doesn't need much thought. I know some people like to stick Su you could totally do that just any slam skill as long as you're exerting it, you know it's a pretty.

decent base core setup here. So, you just, you know, whatever you want to play, man. I just recommend go slam, and then swapping General cry out, right, or Earth shatter. Swapping General cry into pop the spikes. It's pretty easy. It doesn't have to be too comfortable, uncomfortable, but anyways. I'll see you guys in the live stream gearing out Echo. Maybe some Uber bosses, definitely clicking boxes, and no longer dying to shrines, and getting some gold. Anyways, like, sub. I'll see you guys later. Bye.

Simple Settler Tips + Auto-Exertion Berserker Updates

Tripolar Bear

Update on Auto Zerker's Earthshatter Build in Path of Exile

The speaker shares their experience with the Earthshatter build, expressing the ease of running through the campaign and atlas, despite some squishiness.

They discuss their current gear and plans for upgrades, emphasizing the need for a better axe base for increased attack speed.

The speaker also mentions the enjoyment of the auto zerking play style and their excitement for future build improvements.

Optimizing Character Builds and League Mechanics in the Game

Players can easily switch between the zerker and juggernaut play styles for different benefits in attack speed, damage, and survivability.

The league mechanic, focused on upgrading people, stacking bars, and gathering resources, is highly enjoyable for the player, providing a steady income of gold for in-game activities.

A tip for optimizing shipments in the game is to prioritize filling out the happiness meter and providing food, as it gives currency and a multiplier, ultimately maximizing the benefits.

Maximizing Resource Efficiency in the Game

Consistently using a small amount of dust yields a high multiplier, making it a crucial resource.

Crafting bars instead of ores is more efficient, as bars are worth four times as much for happiness and have a one-to-one conversion from ore.

Gold emerges as the limiting resource for upgrades, while spending on white map Farmers is not recommended due to low returns.

The recent changes in recombinating make it more strict, with lower chances of carrying over high-tier mods.

Challenges and Strategies in Recomodator Gameplay

Recomodator's power is limited at lower levels, requiring gold and red maps for upgrades.

It's essential to prioritize the use of shipments for valuable runes and enchants.

Essence farming in red maps is difficult without strong gear and may require additional strategies or adjustments.

Efficient Ways to Farm Essences in Path of Exile

Farming Essences in yellow Maps can be a lucrative way to make currency, especially by using scarabs and the Harvest bench to upgrade and flip them.

Buying scarabs on the marketplace and selling the essences can result in significant profits.

It's important to have a powerful build to handle the tough bosses that come with using multiple essences in a map.

Strategies for Efficient Gaming and Currency Making in Path of Exile

Farming blue alars and selling items in the auction house is a lucrative strategy.

Running Uber shaper for Echo and investing in Ties of Time belt can result in significant profits.

Prioritizing upgrades for maximum resistance and using jewels to increase tankiness is highly beneficial for the build.

Efficient Mana and Survival Strategies for Gaming

Managing mana can be efficiently done by life tapping until obtaining Elon minus Mana jewelry, and using a Mana flask for extra comfort.

Survival during gaming, especially when farming Essences, can be improved by obtaining fizz shift implicit on your helmet and body armor, as well as incorporating war cry skills for additional armor.

Ground slam is recommended for single-target attacks while farming, offering a wide coverage, especially when combined with seismic cry AOE, while Earth shatter is useful for setting up a high amount of damage with auto war cries popping off.

Optimizing Cry Usage for Increased Damage

General cry should be used for its lower cooldown, providing faster spike pops, especially before obtaining a six-link.

It is most beneficial for single target damage during encounters like essences, Uber Elder, and Maven.

This optimized setup offers a more comfortable farming experience, requiring less manual pop-ups, and allowing for the use of any slam skill.
