Finish your last lab so Bone Offering works on you. Unlink Determination from Generosity and swap out Steel Skin for Molten Shell. You'll barely die now.

Yeah the lab was a jerk. I could NOT find the last trail and I JUST got it late last night so I haven't run Uber yet to get the final ascendency. I even had the lab nodes in the Atlas and "Burning Rage" showed up EVERY DAMNED TIME. Molten shell, huh? I like the immunity to poison, but I guess that's what the flask is for too. I didn't even realize I had Determination linked to Generosity... damn it.

I didn't think RF would be remotely popular this league but look like it's the most common build this league, if I had known, would have gone with a different build. As it is now, I'm loving my build but really having a hard time getting the items I want without grinding for multiple days. This just might be the last league for me, I like the game but I'm not willing to grind this much to get the gear I want. Maybe I just picked the wrong build this league but I think I'm too casual for this game now.

I will say this too about currency - the BIGGEST lesson I learned in this game is to pro-actively sell your lower-tier currency. List everything you won't actively use (I keep, alch, carts, vaal, chaos etc)> I tend to slightly undercut prices too - or at least go the very bottom. I can't keep up with the incoming buy requests.

Bro.. I don't think you need to find all the trials anymore haha. You just use an offering to do uber lab.

You sure?

Still says
The final Labyrinth requires six trials, found through the map device, a minimum level of 60, as well as completion of the Merciless Labyrinth. Each run costs 1 Offering to the Goddess.

I'm sitting on a Gift to the Goddess too that I want to use

The game spits out currency but you have to be at end game. Every 28 maps you gets you 1ex with the invitations. The alters spit out Eldritch currency that go for 1c to 3c each for the tiers. They also spit out low tier currency so you don't ever run out. The Simulacrum was around 50c for one. Lvl 83 Expedition logbooks are 20c for the two lesser, 50c for Black and 80c for Knights. Along with the refresh currency for all of them worth 1c to 9c each. Harvest can net you tons of currency just by rolling clusters you found on the ground. If you wanted to sell on TFT then Betrayal and Harvest can make you lots of currency. Ritual spits out tons of normal currency and sometimes very nice items. You can make pretty decent passive currency by selling essences in bulk. You can bulk sell your scarabs that drop all over the place on TFT.

Thanks man I really appreciate your tips. I'm such a lazy trader... I need to sell my stuff. So far I've made only 4 exalts from selling some rares I crafted or found, logbooks, blueprints and some jewels. I didn't realize invitations were worth that much, not that I have any yet. I've got Maven's invitation - the atlasl; I think these are worth only a couple chaos.

I am specced into Kirac, strongboxes and Rogues and partial Ritual. I need to re-spec my tree into content I like.

Do you guys use any mods to check prices of things in-game? Having to go to the browser and type in whatever is cumbersome. I kind of depend on the filter to tell me what to pick up. Though sometimes I check the price afterwards and it's not worth much. I figured for one it was due to the items just being the base to craft with.

I use Awakened PoE Trade, I feel like it's pretty bad usually for rares unless you adjust your search parameters.

I just cheat. If something looks "decent" I'll throw it in my 1 chaos tab and if I get a bunch of messages on it quickly, then I know it's worth something and I will go back and manually price it out. Otherwise, I've found that outside of a few uniques, 99% of rare drops are pretty much worthless and not worth the time or effort

I haven't played in about a week or so either. Didn't get as far this leagure as last. While the Necro build is easier, I didn't find it as fun as other builds.

Going to be playing Rolling Magma with Kitava's Thirst/Volatile Dead on Necro. It's a bit different but seems interesting so I thought I'd give it a go. The changes in the manifesto cut out about 18% damage from it but no defenses. We'll see what the patches notes do to it in the end.

I gotta dig up some build to play... I'm open to suggestions I guess.
I guess for the sake of "not having used the class in forever", I want to find something in Duelist, Scion or Shadow.... maybe some sort of trap build?

Trap skills are pretty good right now. Seismic trap is probably the most meta skill in the game but Ice, Fire and Lightning traps are all good too. Champion is a good class and rather tanky. Its most popular builds are Lightning Strike, Corrupting Fever and Explosive Arrow.

Seismic looks fun/interesting. Lots of skill gems I've never used before either so that makes it interesting.

Give it a go if you think it looks interesting. Even if they tone it down in the patch notes, it's so ridiculous right now it'll still be on par with other trap skills.

Any suggestion for a build that's good for Delve? Want to try to get somewhat deep this league.

Like how deep are you talking. You can get 500-900 on quite a few builds. Cost of builds in the 600+ range are going to be higher and anything 900+ is going to be high.
