Patch was released this reset, but as per usual release week is post season time so Korthia was the only thing released, which is open world content. Where the long term rep farm is for sockets and conduit uprades, which I really don't care about at this point.
However, I decided I want to craft my own legendaries and see if it's actually possible to get a profit on what is a horrible crafting system. And for that I need Korthite Crystals that you get in Korthia. But that is not easy on main, so the way I am doing it is to use my alts to generate enough. After one week I ended up with 55.
Considering I need 80 crystals just to learn the recipe for vestige of origins (unless it changes from the info I found some time ago), and 40 per vestige of origins craft, this will take a while to farm. If I level the armguards from rank 3 to rank 4 by doing rank 5 pieces, it will require no less than 600 crystals, which would be 11 weeks with the current number of alts. Having more alts to farm them with (but as I understand it obligatory maw is broken xp wise) or buy mats on AH are options.
But the question of how many people will buy rank 5 AND rank 6 pieces for what will be absurd prices, when they can just do a week or two more of torghast and just buy rank 6 is an open question. So perhaps I will only do half rank 5 and half rank 3, to get to rank 6 sooner since that is where the actual income will be I assume. That and rank 4 perhaps, for people that ship their soul ash from mains getting cinders, like I plan to do.
This week in m+
The ingame scoring system is here, and RIO for whatever reason seems to change to the same system for whatever reason. Guess having the addon will be pointless if they take out # of timed keys for different brackets and other useful information and just use the site instead if you wanna look people up.
Also postseason, so geared and with some dungeon/affix nerfs combined with easy affixes (Fortified - Bursting - Storming) made it a nice week for keys even if there's no rewards.
Keys with score
+15 Sanguine Depths (++)
[No proof]
+17 Halls of Atonement (+)
Had 0 deaths and just one cheat death proc due to eating two frontals, could have pulled more aggressive I suppose. 18 would have been timeable.
+17 Mists of Tirna Scithe (+)
Had a single death and one cheat death proc again, otherwise clean. Believe we were a bit lucky and pride for second boss. This was originally a +18 I asked to lower, but in hindsight I think Mists is timed if you get past first boss with no wipes on progress on fortified, and if pull 2 and 3 had been messed up could just have lowered then. Oh well, gonna have to remember that for prog later on.
This week in raids
Sanctum of Domination not yet open, so nothing of note here.
This week in soft goals
No progress on neither crafting nor learning to craft.
Renown 42, which is the max of the week.
No change in ilevel.
This week in alts
Alts mainly did the crystal farm, which is the weekly bar filling (which seems to always have one crystal) and dailies which had crystals as a reward. Neither Tormentors nor the Assaults had crystals either as quest rewards nor guaranteed drop from the reward boxes.
Some characters had almost enough valor to get the boxes of callous hides, so did some low keys to be able to spend it all before season end for some extra leather.
Stormlufser did a fair share of leather/herb farming, but have a lot more work up ahead to produce enough leather for crafting; just picking herbs while doing the skinning seems to cover the herb demand for combat and health potions.
Dominator was the one lucky alt that didn't just funnel Wutteät, but unlocked the archivist guys and got sent some of those catchup gear boxes. Which pushed up the ilevel some.
Not sure how I feel about the boxes. It's nice to not have that armor specific BoA system from drops, but since it's mostly a buy from vendor thing getting duplicates was not fun, especially after a certain point where you have most pieces.
Goals for next time
Raid will have opened, so 1-2 raids will be done, hopefully knocking down most bosses.
1000 ingame m+ score
48 Renown
228 iLevel
