what up YouTube Belton here. Uh, got a quick video for you today going over a recent mirror craft format of this video. Going to show you guys a couple clips here, some cool moments from the craft. Then I'm going to explain it in full detail, uh, give some uh reasons for uh different crafting choices, uh, let you guys hear from some of the people that helped me craft it, give you the breakdown on the numbers, and uh, just talk about the craft in general. Hope you enjoy the video. Feels a narcissist. Wow. Yes, yes, I hit it [__]. You, I'm the greatest of all time [__]. I couldn't hear a damn word 'cause your mic is just peeking over and over. Yeah, tell me I ain't the best, H belon [__]. Your [__] not starting to think, but I'm wondering if it would be better to go back to Rolling Grace. Determination 500 armor evasion. Oh my [__] God, I'm the greatest of.

timeo congratulations hello, hello, people of YouTube, and those of you watching live on Twitch. Uh, here to announce that we finally finished the amulet and the mirror crafting project that I've been working on along with a couple of guys from my guild. Uh, for the past several days. Uh, super proud about this one. Uh, was probably the first thing that I actually felt kind of motivated and uh, really interested in pursuing this league. Uh, not that I wouldn't say that I'm jaded, but a lot of the mirror crafts that I make are often kind of sort of a habituated thing just 'cause I know the market's there, but it's not really pushing my limits or testing me in any kind of way. And um, as I'm sure most of you know, rolling vultures and cray chicks and that stuff despite how much time I spend doing that is really not the most fun thing to do. So um, I kind of dispassionately uh, approached a lot of those crafts until I saw this amulet base which I made in a previous

video the double anointment. Uh, the fact that I could pursue something, not only anointment-wise, that had never been done before, but also go after a series of implicits that had never been so. Uh, two kind of world first there, and um, you know, not for like the feather and the cap sake, but um, doing stuff like that is, is you know, where I derive a lot of the passion and purpose I guess I get in the game. So uh, I was really looking forward to going after this. Uh, for those of you following uh, along with my community section on the YouTube um, you'll notice that I posted quite a few updates going through and uh, anyways here we are guys. Doom Scarab synthesized Jade amulet. We've got the T1 crit multi or T1 CR. Jesus, the T1 Mana reservation efficiency, which is a T0 rarity synth mod, one of the rarest actually, the rarest synth mod that you can get on amulets. Uh, Grace Aura effect, determination AA effect, champion of the

cause with Charisma, then we've got T1 es per uh plus one to all skills, plus one to lightning skills. We've got T1 Fire Res 35 doll attributes, and then plus one minimum frenzy charge with uh chance to gain frenzy charge on kill. Uh, I'm super, super happy with this. There is nothing that I would change. Um, give some brief uh uh explanations uh for this um, you know, in totality. We get plus two to gem levels. We get the resistances 35 to all attributes instead of just the T1 in uh because it does free up a lot of points that you can use for tattoos on your tree um, and if you have any um, you know, uh uh attribute requirements for gear or whatever that are lacking behind um, really can can uh, you know, fill out the way there. The minimum frenzy charge is always nice, means you've always got one uh, but the frenzy charge on kill actually can be um, a rather difficult thing to get at times, in particular if you're not uh using um Scion or

Unleashed to 33d of sale um unleash potential um you know there are alternative ways like you can put the points on the passive tree to get uh the mark uh uh the mark Mastery or you could use a influence chest um but it is rather difficult. There's also some megalomaniac mods and other things you can go but no real mainstream or mainstate weight to get those frenzy charges generated uh by putting just the minimum frenzy, which in of itself is already good, and the frenzy charge on kill. You take care of that problem there, nice and simple, and I certainly thought that that was better than say um you know adding all res or um you know int uh in that case. I mean you could have int I suppose instead of all attributes, one or the other uh but the minimum frenzy, fantastic there uh. You could also make the choice for endurance charge. As I'm playing a juggernaut, I decided to go with frenzy, and I do feel like there's quite a few alternative ways to uh generate uh urance charges when you're

in that need, but frenzies can be rather difficult. Um, and so that's why we made that choice there. Um, the Fire Res, obviously for the overcap. Uh, the es percent, just because it's incredibly efficient. Um, we have a lot of flat energy Shield this patch. And then the plus two plus one to all skills being because it applies to all auras. It's a no-brainer. And the plus one to lightning skills because that applies to both Smite and Wrath, which is uh, which are both great as they add um, a large portion of our damage since the uh, replica dream feathers scale up the uh, increased damage so much. Which means that for each additional point of damage that we get in particular lightning damage as we use Vol volatility, um, that gets obviously magnified to the nth degree. So uh, that's why we landed on each one of those individual uh, modifiers. Uh, what's really cool about this aside from the double anointments is this is actually the first time that this synth combo has ever been uh.

rolled before um previously uh the only mirror amulet for this was crafted by Misha, who is uh, as I'm sure any of you that are familiar with armor stacker, know who Misha is, probably one of the most gifted players of that archetype in the game um, and this is just a one-to-one Improvement upon what he had last league for this. So, he had Grace, determination, uh, 10% DS, and then the double uh, or sorry, the single anointment of course um, and then he was using a double overcap chest. So, his suffixes, he had fire, cold uh, fire and cold res, and then fire and cold, the crafted mod as well. So, some different suffixes there, prefix is the same though um. Many of you are probably thinking or uh, are curious what the difference is between this and the um, newly available plus eight amulets um. As you guys know, I'm not a huge poob guy. I also don't think that there's a universal answer to everything um. But the basics of it would be that the plus

eight amulet would is about 50 to 60% more damage, which is obviously incredibly substantial. But there is a ton of utility and a ton of defenses on this, and so it really will boil down to what you want to, I suppose, mid-max or where you want to prioritize for yourself. It should go without saying too that if you were actually to mirror this amulet, it would still probably only cost you 1/5 or 1/16th as much as that. Obviously, to get the plus eight is no small feat, but just to lay it out for you on a plus eight amulet, you get plus 4 to all skills gems, plus 4 to lightning skill gems, so it's really plus 4 to everything, and then your Smite and your wrath are getting an additional plus 4 there. But again, as I mentioned a minute ago, that is where a substantial portion of your damage is going to come from, but it doesn't apply to things like determination or Grace or discipline or

whatever the plus4 does, but not the second plus4 to bring it to the plus eight. Um, and that's it. That's the entirety. And they would be Anointed with charisma. Uh, on the other hand for ours, we have a total of uh 824, 36% reservation efficiency, 32% Grace Aura effect, 32% determination Aura effect, 12% to all Aura effect, uh, 40% uh increased energy Shield, 35 strength, uh, 35 int, 35 decks, 48 fire resistance, uh, frenzy charge generation including a minimum frenzy charge plus two, um, or plus one one, um, and we also have uh as a bare minimum you will save eight points on the tree, and you also have an additional allowance for a aura. You can run an additional Aura by using this because of the um extra allotted uh RMR that it provides, or alternatively if you have RMR let's say on a chest using like the essence of I believe it's loathing, uh, or on a helmet that could free up uh free

up something there or potentially some points on the tree, but uh, champion of the cause is right here. Um, so you know, assuming that you have the iron reflexes and uh, most cases people will have this uh, Jewel node here, uh, you're going to be looking at at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 uh, in some cases or if you uh, are going from Iron reflexes directly and you're not using the um, what's that Jewel called uh, not impossible Escape uh, people on Discord help me out here, the uh, um uh, Crimson Jewel threat of hope, the large threat of hope that uh, has become pretty common place this league um, that that's going to be eight points at least and uh, this this node here, this cluster is uh, 12% or effect and 8% RMR. So it's quite strong and then of course Charisma is the main state. So when comparing the two things um, obviously there's upsides to both uh, if you're

just looking for pure damage, of course. Naturally, the plus eight is going to be better. However, again, it is going to be significantly more expensive, and you are going to be foregoing a lot of additional elements. My thoughts on it, personally for myself, knowing that, especially because we're dual-wielding this league, right? You know, in past League, we used Dawnbreaker, but because we're dual-wielding the replica dream feathers, we effectively double our increased damage, right? That we're getting from the effect of the replica dream feather. I don't really think that damage is going to be an issue, and from people that I've been listening to and to whom or for whom I have a due level of respect for their abilities and understanding of the build. The one chief complaint that I've seen is that it's a lot significantly more squishy than it was previously. I've looked through some PBS, and the high-end, like the single hit, is about 20% of it was last League. I remember my

um single hit uh lowest single hit that I had last league on pob was I think 900,000 or a million with fizz being about 1.3 or 1.4 million. And I believe this league it's around 200 to 250k um again. I don't really think damage is going to be too much of an issue in particular dual wielding replica dream feathers. However, with the removal of fiz taken as and the removal of transcendence um and just the overall adjustment to uh you know flasks as well as uh you know the other uh uh you know mid maxing or or build adjustments that have uh happened um along with uh the new patch and the uh changes with grace and the changes with the bass types and whatnot um I I I do think that uh for myself personally at least taking the more well-rounded route where you have the utility and the functionality of things like the frenzy charts um as well as getting you know the Fire Res which is a main stay for any overcap build the

40% is which is very good because of so much flat the plus two you're still getting that damage from there and then being able to get so much RMR and so much Aura effect uh for me personally this is really everything that I want um but you know maybe at some point that'll change and I want to go for a Max DPS version uh but uh I saw quite a few people leaving those comments on the YouTube as I was uh on the YouTube Community section as as progressively updating the craft so um obviously my thoughts on these are just my own people are going to have their own opinions on this um when I looked on poob for both like the setup that I had currently as well as with like uh you know the Max and sort of uh typical setup with the mid blood nimus you know the aura effect uh 92 RMR plus1 Aura plus six helmet blah blah blah the the you know Mainstay features that you would have for the build um it was yeah somewhere between 50 to 65% more damage to use the Plus 8.

um, but again, there's a plethora of downsides that each of you know. None individually seemed that grand, but you know, little things like having 35 strength means that you know you can turn three strengths, uh, small passives into 18 Fire Res, right, using three tattoos. There's little things like that that you can't directly account for, um, but uh, hopefully, yeah, that overview provides enough insight. Uh, I would encourage you, if you're curious about it, to, of course, um, you know, based on your preferences, play style compatibility, other gear, and what your goals are within the game, to, uh, to make a decision that, um, you know, is contextually right for you. There's, there's never going to be a universal answer, but I'm certainly not going to sit here and say that there's no merit to the plus eights. Naturally, there is, um, but uh, yeah, uh, you leave the decisions up to people individually, as I have, and uh, whether or not you land on the decision that this is better for you.

no problem, but uh I noticed when I was posting this, there were rather uh some rather uh animosity-filled comments amongst people kind of arguing back and forth, completely unnecessary. Um, I don't think that there's, you know, two cool things can exist simultaneously without having to um, you know, be in uh conflict with one another. Uh, and so, you know, if you decide to go the other route, godspeed, no problem, but um, yeah, so that's the craft, that's what it looks like right now, super proud of it. Um, in total, I can give you guys a little quick overview here what the costs were. It was amulet, and it's gone. I can tell you uh, more or less from the top of my head, it's about 1450 vultures, I believe. It was about 680 CR chimeral. Uh, the base itself was five mirrors. Um, rolling the prefixes was about 604. No, it wasn't 60, about 40 div. Um, rolling the suffixes, that's where a lot of actually the

majority of the cost, believe it or not, was incurred. Uh, we ended up having to use, I believe, uh, 27 or 28 hinor locks at around 64 div divines a piece, or approximately eight to one mirror. Uh, the locks in of themselves cost about three and a half or four mirrors in a rather tight span. Uh, in fact, there were some kind viewers on uh, Twitch that uh, and from my Discord that offered to uh, to loan some of those locks in the short term, so thank you to those guys. Do appreciate that. Um, and uh, we would have been able to finish the craft without them. As I said, we do have a team of a couple other people, but um, it certainly uh, makes more sense to get it done quicker. You get services in faster and um, you know, you can buy the material cost. Uh, the material costs are always lower earlier on in the league. So, for those of you, if uh, if any of you watching were one of them, you are appreciated and uh, thank you very much.

guys um yeah I feel like I've covered everything. Everything there is for this uh amulet. Dope wearing it on myself um I put together a little mirror shop thread last night um. There was an earlier version of this amulet where the suffixes were a little bit wonkier and um. So in that in that situation there. I haven't really promoted this in any way. I don't have a a command set up for it yet but as you can see here. Belton's mirror shop uh. We'll get the uh the amulet linked up in there now uh. The fee uh for the moment's 160 divin so about um uh. You know about 20 25 25 30% of a mirror um. There's a few people we have to pay back and there's also a few guys on the team um. Hopefully I can I might uh try selling this base that we have here just to expedite that process but um. The the amulet in total by the way sorry I didn't give a

summarizing cost was just under 11 mirrors, 11 to 12 mirrors, uh, but it also took over a week of time. Uh, on my end, it probably took 30 to 40 hours of rolling beasts and collecting rare beasts and all of that. And for the, uh, you know, three to four other guys that were, um, you know, contributing to the project in a variety of different capacities, um, many of them were running memories and, um, you know, asking questions that drove me crazy throughout. Shout out to, to Amish. Amish, you here? Yep, there's Amish. YouTube Amish is a special one [__] Amish. But no, it was, it was a pretty fun craft. Uh, did you guys, I know the guys that I was crafting with, uh, they're actually in the, the Discord with me right now. Do you guys have anything you want to add, any good memories, bad memories? Yeah, sorry, what's up? I, I remember getting PTSD saying, Hey, we're gonna need some locks from last

League, yes. I was just hoping that we were not going to have to need 78 locks. Yeah, last League, last League was, uh, I mean, last League, it ended up being, uh, I had 78, and we needed 107, uh, and then we ended up using 320. So, it was instead of needing 30, we needed, uh, 180 or something like that. Anyways, this is neither here nor there, and I suppose this is going to drag the video out a little bit longer. Apologies for other thing is, uh, calling you a narcissist and then hitting the mod and then getting yelled at. Well, I mean, that right there, that's just Poetic Justice. I mean, that's right, that's right. You never know, you never go hungry when you're full of yourself. Okay, it's not narcissism, all right? I have a deficit disorder. I require attention. It's medical. Don't ask questions. Um, but thank you, free-for-all. Did anyone else have any insights or comments? Uh, yeah, I guess so. This is my

first time doing anything like this ever and kind of that feeling when you finally get what you were trying to get. It's something that I haven't felt in any other games. It was a really enjoyable experience no matter how much I had to deal with Belon. He sucks um but but but yeah that's kind of all I have to say about it. Well aside from the clear defamation smearing and lies that have been coming out of the CNN of Crafters over here we can progress no. It was a pleasure this league. I know a lot of the times when I make these videos uh for YouTube uh you know people bring up the fact there's some people in Guild blah blah blah often you guys refer to them as [ __ ] boys or little servants. So you guys are aware everyone that does these uh has like an equal stake or has an equitable stake in what they're doing uh they are REM REM remu renumerated. Oh my God I can never say that word. They get

Equity based on what they put in, and then we all contribute our time equally. We're always on voice chat with one another. We work on it together. It's not something where there's, um, uh, you know, a dictatorial mandate on their part. Uh, it's always voluntary, and everyone's informed at every stage. Um, obviously, sometimes if you watch on stream, taking a quarterbacking position, I have to, um, you know, sometimes get people to, um, you know, take a harsher tone when things are, you know, falling to the Wayside. Um, but, uh, at the end of the day, we are, you know, collaborating on this and this league. Um, you know, my, uh, my father, unfortunately, was, uh, going through, uh, heart surgery at the beginning of the league, so I missed probably 10 days of league, uh, including the first 24 hours, multiple days at a time. So, um, even though I'm very excited for the league, I had to take somewhat of a step back, I suppose, compared to the, um, fervor and, uh, excitement I would take, uh, in a

typical league start scenario. So, um, having a smaller group of guys, you know, three or four of us, um, it has been actually quite a treat, uh, despite the fact that, you know, occasionally I question my sanity, um, and public school education systems from where they come from. I think that, uh, it's all in good faith, and it's been, uh, it's been much more of a joy. So, um, hopefully, hearing from those guys can provide some more insight into that, 'cause people seem to always be, uh, confused about that and ask questions. If you have any more, uh, let me know in the comments below, and, uh, I'm sure those guys would be happy to answer and perhaps can do a more fleshed-out interview and explain that, uh, if people are confused. Uh, you know, really the TL;DR is that we use the totality, or the idea, is to make the totality greater than the sum of its parts, right? Um, if I'm crafting something, especially when I'm doing vultures, uh, in the Menagerie.

naturally, I can't be, you know, out running maps or making currency or, you know, buying beasts or things like that simultaneously. And the only exhaustible resource in POE life, to a greater extent, is time, right? And, uh, obviously, you can play 20 hours a day or 24 hours a day, but the more things that you can get done in a finite amount of time, in particular when you have a zero-sum competitive market like mirror crafting often is, um, the better off you're going to be. And, uh, when you get multiple people working together with a shared goal, a shared vision, um, that each have, like, a task specialization or that are from different time zones that can kind of pick up the weight, um, it, uh, it can really make the process a whole lot smoother, um, especially because, uh, the mirror markets tend to be, uh, dominated by, uh, in, like, groups of people, right? Very rarely do you see somebody acting, um, um, as, like, a sole proprietorship, so to speak. But, um, damn, I feel like I've

been talking a lot longer than I meant to on this, and a lot of this probably doesn't have to do with the craft in of itself, but um, it's been a little bit of a while since I've had a winding diet tribe video like this. Uh, I hope you guys enjoyed watching The Craft and getting the updates over the past week or so in the community section. Uh, for those of you who are interested, I will link the uh mirror craft, or sorry, the mirror craft, the mirror thread below in the description as well as in the pinned comments. And uh, yeah, I hope that you guys have been having a good League, hope you've been uh, getting some good luck, some good success, many mirrors to follow your way as I would like to extract them from you. Kappa, not Kappa. Um, and uh, yeah, we had some good luck today as well. If you haven't seen my earlier YouTube video, we ended up hitting the rarest synth base in the game, but that is a question for another day. Uh, but lots on

the horizon. So, uh, if you're new to the channel, thanks for stopping by. Throw a like and sub and all that YouTube stuff if you enjoyed it. Lots more to come. Hope you guys are doing well. God bless. Stay safe. Take care. See you next time. Cheers, Lads. Hello. Welcome to the credits. This little button above me is to sub. Hit it. Do it. Over here will be a playlist of some of the videos I recommend. If this is your first time watching, some of the most useful stuff for a beginner. And over here is another video I think you'll like. Cheers, lads.
