[@hakitoookami1980]

would it be possible to add timestamps for every item? :)

[@Sel_Er]

I understand correctly that with this crafts items there will be no 500+k dps ?

[@rstocker19]

Playing POE for the first time and all your resources have been crazy helpful for this newbie unfriendly game. I am sure I wouldnt be having such a good time without all this content you are putting out.

[@Oops-All-Ghosts]

Timestamps for my own benefit, to make it slightly easier to review individual steps: League progress showcase: 0:00 Gear shopping list: 4:00 Scepter: 4:48 Amulet: 7:09 Rings: 8:15 Belt: 9:08 (summary: just buy Immortal Flesh) Boots: 9:29 Gloves: 10:16 Helmet: 12:27 (summary: just buy one w/ +2 to socketed AoE gems; also an option with gloves if you want) Shield: 13:12 Body: 14:23 Eldritch Essence: 18:11

[@Moses10]

Thanks, I was going to make something like this for reference but this is perfect!

[@DJ-vx9gl]

This is exactly the video I was looking for thank you. Running rf jug following your guide, finished act10 for the second time in my life. And did kitava with no deaths. Thanks for all your help and your 3.21 leveling guide! Learning so much and really easing my journey

[@Tathamet]

Thanks for the video man! really hit the perfect timing with this video just got into maps myself with your build.

[@Shaz--]

Ty so much for the video, exactly my need right now as im starting mapping and im lost in all the stuff. God bless you Pohx, you're the helper among all

[@JaysWorld334]

thanks mate, this was absolutely necessary. I've become a super casual in gaming, i rly need this kind of step by step stuff

[@jacobthomas323]

Bro honestly I haven’t even watched the video yet and I have to thank you, I’ve been following alongside you this league as my first real league start, and this is exactly what I needed!

[@MrDuranis]

Thanks so much for all these guides. I have over 1k hours played in POE but mostly that is with Loooongs breaks in between so I have never really moved out of the "noob" phase as new mechanics basically reset my knowledge every time I start playing again. Was so helpful watching you play through the campaign and then videos like this that show the next steps, make it feel a lot more achievable for a casual player to do some more end game stuff.

[@ZaggaZye]

Many complain about the league mechanics while Pohx makes RF OP and continue to teach and guide us to be happy while we play a game. Still gets tons of views and support because the last thing I would want is to come home from a tuff day to then watch cringe videos about a game we all love and play for years. #Thank you Pohx.

[@blessingleet1]

Amazing video Pohx. Thank you.

[@victortimore341]

That's the most straightforward, no bullshit, no "just buy this 5div item" early gear video I've ever seen.

[@gasser5001]

I've played RF for as long as I can remember. I've only recently(maybe the last year) found your channel and content. I applaud you for the level of dedication you have for our glorious spell. Jugg RF has been my go-to for SO LONG, it just makes the game feel actually fun... I hate 1-shot mechanics. 10/10 on the content and dedication, you and Capt Lance are the only PoE channels I watch.

[@Tuggernutz50]

Excellent video. You should rename the tittle though because this video was a hidden gem lol. I wouldn't have clicked on it normally but i've been watching everything of yours lately but the advice you gave in this video is great for all new players regardless of build.

You couldn't of timed this video any better

[@playtoearngaming4858]

[@calvinwilson3617]

Hey pohx, I absolutely love your content! One suggestion for your website: On mobile, your wiki site doesn't show the FAQ/Craft/Home buttons, so there's no way to see/click unless you manually switch the site to desktop version (I didn't even know these links existed until i saw this video)

[@magicsmoke0]

What might be helpful is a tier list of mods to look for while we craft so we can more easily decide to keep rolling or move on.

[@xanscobe]

very neat video :) more of this style :) but put timestamps in it .. when esp when people need help with specific slots or need to rewatch it multiple times

[@djwork5807]

Hey thank you for your well explained guide, felt like you know what you are talking about :) I was wondering if on a amulet +1 level all fire skill gems VS % increased fire damage + damage over time multiplier is the best fit for mid mapping ? Thank you for your work

[@zeroskill6293]

Where is this lightning coming from? :D Great video! Thanks

[@gelm1r]

Hey pohx, im playing jugg myself and was wondering how / was the best way to craft that awesome body armour you have or thick armour piece w/ ress or other good mods? even without the mana reservation would be insane. Thanks for your videos.

[@brandonmorrison2379]

Oh boy, you laid it out great but my mind is still melting. Playing rf jug this season, got to maps, don't really know what I'm doing, traded foe the first time, 5 chaos for fractured life regen gloves with 50 dex, cold res and armor%, and I crafted minion damage on it for another 3 chaos. Hoping I didn't rip myself off. But I picked up a Devine on my first playthrough blind as a witch during the campaign so I'll have a lot of currency to blow on the starter stuff I suppose.

[@tonka85]

Where do I get the Oriath flask from? random drop? specific content? thanks!!

[@NunoGralha123]

Do you recommend using a shield instead of dual wielding even while leveling thru acts?

[@ALEXFVHS]

is his other flasks reset themselfs like oriaths end? or only oriath does that

[@APD0620]

[@TheSqoud]

Hey Pohx, should we play RF or FT in the 6 link armour? I see both, but i´m not sure what should be the better option...

[@koreczkowo]

@Pohx Kappa how you get those atointments for passive skills near glorious vanity jewel? I have ritual of flesh, you have automaton studies etc... im quite new in it :D thx !

[@samueldufour888]

Can you help me with my scaling damage, when i change a piece of gear i dont know what to check if this piece upgrade my dps or not, plz :)

[@ChessDoctorsOrigins]

this was a great video, maybe make another update for lets say level 90, you in red maps and you have 5 - 20 divines to spend? whats next?

[@Alexandru_Iacobescu]

How do you use essence on a magic or rear item?

[@JoseBurle91]

Thanks for the hand holding, some of us don't have the time to study everything POE has to offer.

[@seanyshaman6760]

I’ve been using your path of building link but I don’t remember seeing anything on the pathing section about turning minion damage scaling into RF scaling. Is there an updated version for the Inquisitor build? Also, with the new scaling added, is the old 3 crafted mods strat still the end game scepter?

[@PohxKappa]

inq doesn't use minion damage since it has a lot of damage compared to jugg. Metamod sceptre can still be endgame especially if you get double DoT multi with +1. Inq is in a difficult spot for sceptres

[@TheArtisticAlchemist]

how do I beat the shaper because I am stuck at level 94 following this guide and yet I can't beat it I have tried over 9 times now

[@romanwalat122]

Hey Pohx, I'm lvl90 now and my single target is crap unfortunately. 1. Is there any good way to improve the single target? 2. How did you get so big area for RF? 3. Why we're not using The Brass Dome? Thanks a lot in advance, RF rocks as always!

[@lugomoss]

i'm playing as inquisitor so the sceptre part with minion dmg doesnt seem correct to me..

[@saskiawillems9435]

Greetings and thank you for your content. You suggest a 3rd red socket in the body armour and suggest a gem, but I did not catch which one. I thought I heard 'laceration' but I can't find a gem with this name. Thank you for clarifying the gem setup in case of 3R-2B-1G. Kind regards

[@Melquitos1]

The Red Gem is "Less Duration Support". Its only works if you have the "Lifetap Suport" because it give the duration tag likewise it enable the "Swift Affliction" Green gem

[@trahanddarkeyes5329]

I would really appreciate some advice on which atlas passives to invest for early progression as a RF jugg SSF character. Im new to the game and i find that SSF really pushes me to learn it. Last season i tried focusing on essences and strongboxes early but i dont know If its the optimal choice. Im starting late this season so i would appreciate some advice on that.

[@PohxKappa]

should be able to follow my atlas guide for this league, it applies to SSF as well

[@gabrielhawk]

Hi Pox, I am following your guide for RF Inquisitor, and you did not spec for minion damage there, (Spiritual Aid node, as you mentioned at 5:51 ) so Essence of Fear is useless for me I guess. Which one should I use instead? Thanks for all the help to us newbies.

[@PohxKappa]

for inq rf you can use the other sceptre craft method found here www.pohx.net/Crafts | You can also buy a fractured sceptre and try using scorch fossils, although i'm not too sure how well it will work

[@gabrielhawk]

@@PohxKappa Thanks a lot man, I'm a total newbie to crafting but I will give it a try :) stay safe!

[@Mrsinister25]

how do you 1 click 100% league mechanic?

[@ReadySetMoses]

How is his RF ring blue?

[@Skittles1062]

How come when i look for a sceptre with burning damage in trade, then go to trade for it, it does not show the burning damage anymore?

[@lenandov]

Is possible that the burning damage exists on an older model of the item. Soul Mantle for example, used to have +1 totem. If a buyer was in a hurry, might accept the modern version which doesn't have it :( Seller could "grab the wrong one by mistake." Seller could intentionally try to pass it unscrupulously. Also, I think burning damage is the same as fire damage over time. Fire dot is also called burning damage with ignite. Look for that mod instead. What else?

[@MrSuperbarrage]

Templar has no Spiritual Aid in the tree so what should I aim for with the essence?

[@PohxKappa]

not too sure, I never found a cheap method of crafting the sceptre without minion dmg. The only exception is the +1 recipe into multi mod which you can find www.pohx.net/Crafts (it's kinda annoying to do though)

[@teitonii]

this gear was a little low on res, but he also didnt use as many essences as you normally would because hes just doing it as an example, also be aware that you can change ele res to any other ele res for very cheap with harvest

[@LiliumCruorem]

So I may have found something cool I will have to look up the exact name. But I found a unique amulet that seems to allow RF to leech life. Which has helped a lot with my build cause I just kinda lack enough life regen to guarantee that I don’t die in silly ways. But the ammy says that all fire damage you deal now also leeches life as long as you are ignited. It also has another affix that pretty much guarantees you will ignite yourself. I dunno maybe I am tripping. But after slapping it on my build feels a lot better. Probably won’t be viable in t16. But I was able to clear a t12 today with it!

[@donkeykrong5255]

[@Felipelck]

[@ericparra2027]

What about sockets?

[@stevolam182]

@phox kappa hey bro do we have a final version what our passive tree should be looking like? I feel like we’re jumping all over the place with passives this league

[@PohxKappa]

the PoB should cover everything. My current skill tree is similar to the 96+ one in PoB. It looks slightly different due to how Glorious vanity works. (it corrupts everything so I changed 2 passive points to make better use of my jewel)

[@Skittles1062]

What if we end up with an empty prefix instead of suffix? Are we screwed?

[@Skittles1062]

[@bestfragments]

Hello. I installed the cluster and the glorious vanity stone but I did NOT install the Stormshroud stone. I have 80+ resists and 2200 regen, but when I turn on the RF I burn out quickly. Why is that? Is it because of the lack of Stormshroud?

[@maxhax367]

Do you have ALL resists at 80? Even chaos?

[@bestfragments]

@@maxhax367 chaos at 0. Is it all about him?

[@maxhax367]

How come we're not doing hex touch support/frostblink/flammability anymore?

[@runeyap9812]

I remember 3.21 or 3.20 has changed how curses work from manual cast and linked with hextouch. Something along the lines of hextouch nerfs the curse's effects abit too much, that now its better to manual cast.

[@TeeBeeOhh]

@@runeyap9812 yeah, hex touch really isn't worth it and if you want to press fewer Buttons you are better of using arcanist brand

Appreciate the video. But man I'm level 86 doing yellow maps ok and I have 7c. I don't know how you get all this currency. Definitely doing something wrong

[@adammay6663]

Yellow maps are still pretty early, but make sure you’re doing Delves (vaal areas and currency nodes can drop great chaos), and doing some occasional heists and things other than maps. Not only has it earned me a good bit of currency but when I was stuck in mid yellow maps a delve actually gave me my first red map

[@roberthree]

Chaos recipe is good for the initial 30-40 chaos. Sell all 6 sockets for jewelers and trade the fusings for chaos. Make sure you sell all the stuff you find.

[@rhye_guy7717]

Biggest tip for new players, don't expect to craft your gear with one click like Pohx does as he poops horseshoes and quite frankly makes me sic with how lucky he can be.

[@Morganaplays]

Fractured burning damage is 50 chaos now

[@jordanminnick4386]

After watching this video, I actively watched poe trade this morning as the reasonably priced recommended 6 links sold out and a bunch more flooded in with predatory pricing 🙃 Just another layer of inaccessibility to newer players who aren't quick enough to utilize knowledge provided by content like this

[@oyungr]

You know this is a safe tanky build after running a map for a few minutes and feeling laggy realizing you forgot to turn on RF but it's still all good. 👷

[@rycegaming]

5 end charge, 80+ max res, 90% phy reduce, 1500 life regen, mobs in PoE still hits like a truck. PoE in a nutshell.

[@KVenturi]

My problem now as 78 rf is im lacking dex

[@m4rcus791]

A really great build! BUT young is expensive and especially in the current league. As an example, play the Titan Gauntlets (Fractured) with 16% Increased Life Regen 1div, the Elder Helm as you did it in the jet goat league stream 3c not a thing but these horror essences Holly Shit... Yes, your crafting guides are really great , but the prices my face.

[@PohxKappa]

you need some wiggle room in crafting. For example try getting a different fracture on your gloves but still aim for the same outcome. No matter how cheap a build is once someone starts talking about specific pieces the player driven economy just scoops it all up

[@Ataelson]

I can not for the life of me figure out why I poe trade has 0 shields with +1 level to all fire skill gems

[@earlgrey2130]

This is a bit out of touch with reality tough.. "early maps" and he's running a 6-link has already found the required uniques and has an empower gem? 😂 Yeah.. endgame stuff most SSF players never find in the entire league. And yes you could use trading, but even then.. i've hit maps with rougly 23 chaos orbs (and thats being very lucky with drops). This gear is not achievable on early maps. Even id you'd sacrifice the ssf league and downgrade to trade league.

[@PohxKappa]

6 links run for 15 chaos even on early league starts. You just buy a base and throw a couple of essences on it. You can check out my SSF progress videos as well

[@aarong3340]

LOL! That message killed me. Dearest Pohx. I am loving your build and site. I have been doing RF for the first time this league and am at lvl 91. I have done most of your beginner entry crafts and have some decent gear. I feel like im a bit slow in red maps though and am curious if there is a section of your wiki that goes over transition from early gear to mid tier gear or mid tier to end game etc. I always find I have this problem in every league where I'll get to maps, slowly improve my gear, and then hit a wall as I never know when or how to transition gear. Thankyou.

[@youngdrgn]

The PoB for the build has different gear sets based on level breakpoints that you can use as a reference. The wiki under the craft section also has info on how to craft beginning and endgame pieces of gear.
