Crafted my first +9 Skill Wand
Nice bro. It could be our wand. We can just keep it at my house.
Shared custody you say, hmm
Haha. Yeah. We go m w f, every other weekend
Just get married with op at that point :p
Haha right.
Wanted to make a new wand for my Grim Pillars Totem char. (Shout out to Palsteron for showing off the skill and the subsequent videos with useful information)
Preface: I am not sure this is the best way to do it, but it’s what I did. First league since launch that I actually play, so still learning all the crafting methods etc. :)
Had some people ask for steps in global 10 so perhaps others are interested in how it was crafted!
Rule 10:
Cost: ~200-300+d
Items we use
Steps
If I get enough currency to make another or maybe hinekora, I might sanctify it.
Hopefully it was helpful for anyone going for a feisty +9 wand.
This is a work of art holy shit
Ty :) very happy with it!
Sheesh well done
Get Base, Magic, 2 sock, +5 skill wand. Buy or try to make it (I gave up after about 10 white bases and bought one).
What did you do with the white bases that you used 10?
If someone didn’t know that: you can use annul on magic items aswell. Annul + aug would be the same as chaos slamming but keeping it a magic item
White bases are cheaper than annuls so not the best option :P
How much did you pay for those 2 sock white bases on lvl78 Dueling Wand? Right now they go for 20 divs. On thursday they used to be 6divs up.
You don’t need dueling wand, you just need any wand that can roll the +5 you need, which for cold would be ilvl 81+ Attuned Wand Siphoning Wand Acrid Wand Torture Wand Critical Wand Dueling Wand Runemastered Runic Fork Runic Fork Twisted Wand
Currently 20ex on trade, saw some for 15 earlier.
That’s a whole different story if you used ANY 2 sock white base wand.
But that makes it clear now. It just confused me why you are trashing 20 div bases.
Oh no that’d be crazy :D Bases are cheap but the process is… less than fun :‘)
Damn thats cool
very nice.
Players: “We need less +levels on gear, it’s making other damage mods and uniques in these slots basically obsolete.” GGG:
You know what’s next
On my next wand ;)
I’m guessing lock sanctify over vaal here?
I mean, lock and check both results lol take whatever is best
Worth a hinekora’s lock, doens’t it?
I’ll consider it.. when I have currency again :‘)
No balls
level nerfs for melee, meanwhile spells keep getting more.
i am on board w level nerfs on melee if they move the damage to the skill instead to make the few sources of +level more meaningful.
i dont like hunting for +level on every build, every class, every slot you can get it. its boring.
💯
Level has always been how you scale spells since poe1
Not to the same amount, not even close. Maximum you can get from 1 item in poe 1 is +8 but that craft will take multiple mirrors and also only give you +8 for amulet slot, after that maximum is usually +2 on weapons.
Different balance between both games so you can’t expect exact numbers. The point was that level has been how you scale spells (alongside add flat to spell). For an attack build in poe1 skill level would not be on my top 10 list of things to look out for. Also poe1 level scaling has diminishing returns past 30, while in poe2 it’s the complete opposite.
Maximum is +2 on one-handed caster weapons
Reddit: “I hope they remove +skill from gear” GGG: “Here you go, +9 wand for you”
You guys are playing a different game than me
Come join us :)
Honestly the main thing I don’t understand is where ahh the currency comes from. I’ve been grinding pretty hard this league and I don’t think I fully understand how to actually make the big money lol. I’ve probably made like 100 div total, mostly from abyss drops and rogue exiles
wtf is this sorcery, i though i was balling out of control with my +6 skills 2hand STAFF, wtf
Time to reduce +to melee skills obviously.

Where is the additional + 3 coming from, I know 1 can be desecration, one corruption and then a rune? Are you saying that’s what happened?
3 from runes, +1 and +2 (aldurs, ~100d)
5 suffix
1 alloy prefix mana & skill
It is not corrupted.
There’s a rune that gives +2….and not limited to one per item?
Edit: massive congrats tho that’s a cool craft just didn’t know you could get +9 on a wand
It’s a mod from Lifesprig (unique wand). The rune pulls a unique mod from the unique item and you are able to socket it. The rune is only 100d…it’s not meant for people like us
Aldurs has a limit of 1 yeah, you can only have one rune on your char
Truly beautiful, mate. GG
gg wand
Wtf.
just classic 7 wand with aldur and double socket. For anyone looking to skip 2 level, you can make that for fairly cheap
…
Nice Craft! But I can’t believe you put a 125 divine rune into a wand without spell damage, and with T2 gains XD
T1 spell dmg is ~3.5% dmg diff to the T2 cold gain :P And I like the light gain due to good shocks. And T1 spell damage is a 0,6% hit compared to 6% on the gain (50 vs 500 weights). If you wanna spend the entire league rolling for that, go ahead :D Currently not a single boss lives for more than 2s.
Nothing about the rune says you can’t craft prefixes more if you really want to, only thing that is wasted is the Astrid.
Lol fair enough
How do you get the +1 level all spell and +3 level all spell?
If only everything was in the first comment explaining the craft :S
He’s want the tldr not reading the essay
Dont even need to read, you can skim the text for 10 seconds and see all the +skill mentions easy :P
Less effort to solve the question yourself than to ask it :D
