If you're asking about the Graveyard Crafting then you should do it as you're progressing through the campaign to fill in or upgrade missing gear pieces. The corpses are based on the zone level you got them in and will make an item of an average level and item level dictates how high certain mods can roll so the insane KZbin crafting videos are using Corpses that are level 80 or higher.

I don't play on console, but after your bodies have been buried going near them should bring up a UI that shows what the craft is and what the body is. On PC there's a "Craft" button that you click to open up the menu that then asks what you're trying to craft. Select whether you want Armour, Weapons, Jewellery. Then the Base Item Stat Type, and then the Base Item. Then Exorcise. Hopefully any of that helps, I don't play on console. Last time I plugged a controller in the UI was just confusing so I really don't blame you for having issues.

The league mechanic stuff is pretty meh, even after the updates they made to make the crafting portion easier, but the endgame changes are kinda cool. I still have no idea how T17's are supposed to be the stepping stone for Ubers though.

There is alot of complexity but most of that comes from the game letting you have the ability to customize most everything. Because of that I find it hard to go to D4 and be locked into a class archetype.

right? it is really unfortunate and the only theory sounds kinda tinfoil hat but I'm guessing these are mods they're looking to implement into PoE 2 and need a wider group of people to test and that's why you can't opt in or out of the mechanic since a large majority of people don't interact with league mechanics in the campaign which is where they really want to test. Again, kinda tinfoil hat but I could see it being the case.

Is it even possible to explain ALL of PoE in 45 minutes?! lol

When you kill monsters sometimes one will have a button pop up that says "Collect" you click that, the Undertaker takes the body back to the Necropolis. When you're in the Necropolis and you click a grave you can bury that body but each body has a Crafting Modifier on it. So you want to bury bodies together that have crafting modifiers you want. Then you can click Craft and pick the piece of gear you want to craft. It consumes the bodies and spits out an item. If you have a body that didn't have a Crafting Modifier and instead has a name, then you have a Unique body and you have to collect the other bodies with the same last name and bury them together and it'll spit out a Unique Item. Apologies for the essay, they really didn't make the Unique Body thing very clear in game.

@@PoEInstitute Excellent! Thank you so much for the extremely helpful & detailed reply. Cheers!

When I bought the Gem and Flask tab I didn't think I'd get much use out of them but surprisingly I do fill it up. The fact the Flask Tab will take Unique Flasks is really nice and convenient as well.

I mainly play on standard got covid and recovered after 1 month and now all of my sextant and scarab are fcked how'd they managed to screw everything up lol.

Same. As someone who barely understands all the underlying systems of PoE I need an "everything you need to know" for the "everything you need to know" videos. I would also appreciate a league starter guide for league starter guides. These videos always start off fine then withing 20 seconds I have no idea wtf people are talking about.

@@Chris-zg7ty everytime someone explains the league mechanics, they dont explain anything.

‘Everything you need to know if you already know everything’

In the interviews Mark said it's unskippable but if it becomes enough of a problem for people, and most likely himself since he plays as well, that they'll do something to make to faster. I understand their purpose of trying to create suspense but I've only crafted 3 or 4 items and feel like it's a bit much.

you don't move the monsters, you move the modifiers. The first reason would be to make the zone harder by killing higher density/packsize monsters to encourage getting those Devoted Spirit Rewards in the next zone. (Again that is for campaign only), the other reason you'd do it is to make sure harder mobs don't get something that would make them more difficult, like Rhoas in the Mudflats, last thing you'd want to do is give them movement speed or increased damage.

The Poisonous Concoction Greenish one looks like the Huntsman Armour : www.pathofexile.com/shop/item/HuntsmanArmourPack?search=huntsman Unless you were asking on a different one?

@@PoEInstitute i forgot to tag the timestamp xD , around 5:25

@@relpis9304then I guessed perfect, yeah that's the Huntsman Armour Set and Shield

That really sucks, maybe you'll drop something juicy on Monday to catch you up.

@PoEInstitute yea here's hoping! I'll try and get a bit of a start on console but that'll only really be testing lol

they said they want to try something new and add league passives on the atlas. so presumably every every mechanic going forward will have those, but it doesn't mean it's instantly core.

@@maiwaifuisdead ah ok

I think it's something that helps them save time in the event that a league goes core they don't have to design Atlas Clusters but instead they can just balance them, but at the same time if it goes core and they keep the clusters, where would they put the next leagues?

yeah, if I recall right they also got rid of the Essence Duplication nodes on the Atlas Tree as well :\

Only early early essence farm was nerfed...once you start dropping essence scarabs, they're gonna be juicier than ever. Kinda fair that you are not able to do such currency strats in t1 maps

@@Nosleepums Im not sure what the drop rates for essence scarabs are though. Any idea on it?

essence farming got a biiiig boost with some of the new scarabs, there is one that makes every rare in a map into an essence monster!

@@Nosleepums Yea except non trash scarabs are rare af so they will be expensive af.

I still need to go to bed lol

2hours, 57minutes!

Cries in console Edit: woooot they launch at the same time? 😳

@@stealthstyle1 Im a console pkayer too! lol, crazy to find another one of us Chads on here, Im on Xbox but I also Have PS5, xbox client runs better for this game

@@stealthstyle1I was also amazed to see that. was like 4am when I went to bed trying to figure out what time start was and kept seeing Console and disregarding it lol

that is the most absolute bummer. my alternate characters I waited until the middle of Act 2 and would just keep resetting a zone until I eventually found them so 50 is probably possible. I do wish they popped up on the minimap from farther away or something at least to get you to them the first time.

So everything we've found out is you won't run into them until Act 2, around a level 20 zone. You can run into all 3 of the Wanderer's and it seems completely random but if you're targeting the purple guy you'll have better odds if you follow the purple trail, but do keep in mind the trails will change colors as you go follow them. I wish I had a better more definite answer for you but it is random.
