My Experience with 6L Crafting
This game isnt for the casual player. You really have to wrap your head around the fact that its going to take a huge investment in hours to get currency rolling and 6linking items and whatnots. This is the most ruthless hardcore type game of its genre out there. Its a hugely polarizing game as u with either utterly fall in love with it or hate it and even if u utterly fall in love with it it easily turns to hate after some rng drops on u like wasting 1200 fusings.

Play HC and learn to accept your loses :-) I can assure you that they will be much more substantial then 1.2K fusings you just wasted. :-)
MY CHALLENGES ARE DONE ON HC, IT'S NOT SC GUYS!

Sorry total Noob question here: Wouldn't it be way cheaper to simply trade a 6L? Sure trading sucks, but I'm not sure if it sucks that much so that's it's worth wasting so much currency.

" Trading gives you control over the cost of 6l (to the extent that the price is known before purchase). But there's a reason why people calls "crafting" in this game "gambling". You're always just one lucky fuse away from it... It will convert your forum titles into decorative square badges that use the space next to your forum posts more economically so that you can show off an unlimited number of them at any one time. - GGG, 2018 (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3573673)

I just never 6 link items, I buy them 6 linked. If you ask me, I would implement fuse counter for every item so it becomes 100% 6 linked after 2k fuses.
Spending 3k fuses in smaller bunches make you feel really stupid. Alt Art items as League MTX - When?

" Ahh, the thrill of the gamble. I get it now, thanks. |

Trading for a 6L is not logical. Following basic logic you use what you collect for what it does.
Buying straight 6L isn't something worthy because at trading you want something that at least correlate with averages. For instance if you need a 6L chest no matter what just farm crypt with a tabula fishing for celestial justicar(it drops WELL) In Perandus, I 6Linked 2 torsos with less than 10 fuses. A shav in 2 fusing and a coil in 4-5. My first 6L was a white item 4 leagues ago, it was first try. I went also to the other side of the spectrum not getting a 5L after using 500+ fuses on a bow 1 year ago. Well yes it sux, linking should be pseudo random IMHO. Последняя редакция: galuf#4435.

" This assumes that something "costs" something. NOTHING in this game costs you anything. You could quit playing all together and get on with your life and lose NOTHING. The value of a 6L feel like it's something while you're playing, but try to pay your rent with it, or buy a meal. Not likely. In standard, items only leave the trade pool when people get bored with them and voluntarily remove them from the pool. There's far more 6Ls out there than there are people playing to use them. They're basically free... if you can find someone willing to waste their time transferring them to you. In HC, similar problem, but not quite as bad since items leave the pool if a character using it dies. This is the core reason that we can't have auto-trade. People who quit would just dump their items onto the market for free. The market wouldn't stand for it. Items would only be bought/sold for the cost of posting them. |

for almost all the builds, 5L is good enough for a long long time. so I always aim at 5L, and accumulate currency during leveling, buy another same item to fuse it, pray to get a 6L done by myself, but casually, 20 fusing everyday in average. if I am lucky in that league, and make good currency, then I will buy the 6L.
1 or 1.5 month in the any league, I normally always have 6L gear and more. |

You may not get the rng you're expecting to get but something will hit lucky eventually. For me this league I had an infernal mantle drop, took 1 jewellers to make it 6S and 2 fuse to make it 6L. I couldn't believe it.
