Full crafting process for my 2-mirror bow, since people keep asking
Alright, since like 40 people have DM’d me. It’s honestly not that complicated if you understand suffix pressure.
Vaal quality an exceptional ilvl 84+ base to 30%, but you HAVE to do it while the base is unidentified or the quality won’t carry lattice memory into the craft (bricked 9 bases before I figured this out). Then chaos spam with an Omen of Sinistral Recanting active so the chaos can only reroll prefixes that have never previously been suffixes. Once you hit T1 crit, do NOT divine it yet: divining before the fracture will collapse your tier bleed and you lose the lattice memory from the quality step.
Instead, scour-lock the crit with an Orb of Attrition, then desecrate at Tujen’s clandestine bench (the regular bench eats the attrition charge, learned that the hard way, twice). Fracture and pray. Failed this 11 times. On the 12th, the fracture held, so I refluxed the prefixes to left-align the affix table and opened up mod gravity on the phys rolls.
From there it’s simple: perfect exalt with an Omen of the Eighth Whisper socketed so slams inherit the weight of the last annulled mod. Whittle until T1 phys or hybrid. Slam. Whittle. Slam. If you ever see “of the Penitent” appear, walk away from the bench for 10 minutes: it means your suffix pressure inverted and slamming now will sublimate the fracture.
Finish by unveiling the accuracy at Ahuana’s Stay so the sanctification can’t witness the final mod. All in around 6.8k div. Honestly the hardest part is the discipline.
God I love this game
Edit: forgot to mention, you need the Rune of Provenance socketed BEFORE the reflux step or the prefixes right-align instead. This is not recoverable.
Edit 2: wrote that edit half asleep. I meant the Rune of Providence. Provenance is the one that eats your quality. Do not socket Provenance.
