I might have missed something but did you gloss over "% increase" and "% more" and "local" or "global" multipliers?

@Colton Mathew instablaster ;)

[@coltonmathew6237]

@Mateo Leonardo thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@carsonlerner548]

The best crafting tutorial out there. Keep going mate!

[@Lolcohol]

Thanks, Carson! Episode 4 is waiting til Thursday to be released and I've got episodes up until 7 all ready to be recorded! I promise that I will complete this series :)

[@cvs_en]

All this can seem daunting at first, but having someone explain them in such neat and orderly fashion clearly puts you up to speed. Best of luck going forward.

[@Lolcohol]

:) thanks. I'm really hoping that by the end of this, everyone will understand things much better!

[@tcy362]

EXCELLENT tutorial mate! There are so many x hours long tutorials already on the web but I found yours are really easy to follow and tailor made for people that are not expert in crafting already. please keep up the great works! subbed instantly.!!

[@Lolcohol]

Thank you! So happy to hear that :) That's exactly what I'm going for - helping out new players and assuming no knowledge beforehand :)

Very good video I especially love how slow and thorough your lessons are!

[@Lolcohol]

:) Glad to hear it!

[@sebastianbetancourt52]

this series are so underrated, props to you! the painting analogy was not cheesy at all, it was very ilustrative. Perhaps mentioning it from the beginning and using it along the series would've been good. Anyways good videos, keep it up!

[@Lolcohol]

Thanks so much! Hopefully this series gains some traction in future. When I released it, I felt it did really well, but looking back, I feel like more people should see it. I'm glad you liked the painting analogy :)

[@JezzyHsu]

Excellent series please keep going! Using your painting analogy, I am the guy drawing stick figures by throwing crayons onto walls!

[@Lolcohol]

Hahah I love that last sentence so much. Brilliant. Probably my favourite comment on my channel to date. And episode 4 is scheduled for release on Thursday and episode 5 is half edited! Episode 6 and 7 are scripted and ready to be recorded! The series will go on! 😊😊

[@happyhippyhitlerpro-hatesa1247]

I exactly feeling the same , like a dumb kid with Finger paintings (thx God i kept most of my crafting stuff instead of "missusing" it, the only thing i reguallarly are doing is switching the Socket colour för sure ..)

[@austen594]

Lmfao, the song at the end and the google pronunciation took me out while I was playing and listening. I appreciate these even though I've been playing for awhile.

[@slamfistlord9242]

Just now working through this series, and while none of this info is technically "new" for me, it's like these videos are taking the tetris pieces and actually laying them flush together so it *works*, great vids and super helpful!

[@Lolcohol]

That's so great to hear! Tetris is a nice way of looking at it - instead of jumbled pieces, we're creating nice lines :)

[@Ghou1Lord]

This series is awesome! I'm quite new to POE and an uber noob in crafting. Thank you very much for this. GGG should pay you for this.

[@Lolcohol]

You're welcome! And I wish. They can pay me in MTX :D

[@ronboi123ful]

Best Crafting break down. I've been playing POE for weeks and had not crafted anything, because i didnt understand how to do it. I watched many other videos. But still didnt fully understand. Mostly because the other videos they are crafting with currency that i have not found yet. Nice videos!!!

[@Lolcohol]

Thank you! I noticed that a lot of generic crafting videos assumed a lot of knowledge and didn't go over the absolute basics so I wanted to do something that didn't assume any prior knowledge. I really want to remake this series since the later episodes are quite out of date, but crafting keeps changing so I don't want to put a massive amount of time into something that will become redundant in a matter of months :(

[@ramenboy7702]

Well made video, very informative! Please keep up the good work.

[@Lolcohol]

Thanks, Lester :) will do!

[@CreadyMan]

Finally someone who can make a proper guide to crafting

[@Lolcohol]

:) Glad you think so. Episode 4 will be out tomorrow

[@etiennest-arnaud7777]

New lvl 51 elementalist player here. Your vids help me so much understanding the game! They also help me prepare to craft my stuff for mid-late/game. I'm looking forward to watch your other tutorials:)

[@etiennest-arnaud7777]

Is there something usefull to do with unused gems?

[@Lolcohol]

Hey! I'm glad that the videos have been helping :) what do you mean by unused gems? Level 20 unused gems?

[@etiennest-arnaud7777]

Well just gems that I don't use lmao. They take a lot of place in my inventory. So my question is should I keep them for later in game or I can sell them

[@medoklintok]

I didn't ever pay attention to the tags system... Thanks ! Very helpful !

[@Lolcohol]

You're welcome! It's a very important system to know about :)

[@JaredLearnsToHuman]

[@dukenguyen3424]

I think the best analogy for 'what is the paint brush' would be exalts, lots of exalts 😂

[@Lolcohol]

Haha. That's the Jackson Pollock method - not a very good one :D

[@maxxpower9916]

These crafting tutoris have been a godsend, thankyou so much for making an easily digestible guide! I might even be able to give crafting a go now without too much fear 😅

[@Lolcohol]

You're very welcome! I'll be covering a way you can craft for free to practice soon (hint: Craft of Exile)

Thanks! I'm glad you appreciated it :)

[@Neurolytic76]

Great content. So helpful. Thanks

[@Lolcohol]

[@watermelon58]

Brilliant! Doesnt assume anything but also explains thoroughly, one tiny critique just emphasize the advanced tooltips god knows why that isnt the default

[@Lolcohol]

Haha I mentioned it twice in this one and once in the last one hoping it would stick. And yeah - why the hell is that not default? Although, I remember when I first encountered it, it was kinda overwhelming, especially when comparing items. But that quickly goes away and you have so much more info

silly question, but what skill is that at the start of the video that looks like the sun in the middle of space/galaxy?

[@adrianbiro2600]

I loved your tutorials so far, but I have to ask, do you have an item filter for the go-to craft bases? I'd love to use it if you do!

[@Lolcohol]

Thanks! I actually don't have a loot filter :( But I like using Neversink's filter - his one always highlights good bases when you set it to Strict :)

[@muhammadazri3750]

nice..are we doing basic crafting next episode?

[@Lolcohol]

Yes! Well, it's not as basic as I was hoping, but I go slowly and explain everything, so it will make sense, especially if you watched the first three episodes :)

Great videos so far

[@Lolcohol]

Thanks, Jose :)

[@handsomejohnjohn]

This is a great video, thank you. Question: How can you tell the mod is hybrid? Tempest mantle armor you showed has flat ES and % ES, and you said that is a hybrid mod. How can you tell? I am assuming you are talking about the %ES. There is no clue it is hybrid or regular % ES.

[@Lolcohol]

Hey! Glad you enjoyed the video. So in game, it will be obvious if a mod is a hybrid mod if you press alt with advanced mod descriptions turned on, but on the trade site, you'll see little blue and red numbers and letters to the left of the mod - P2, P2 + P4, P2, S5 etc. The first letter is telling you whether it is a prefix or a suffix and the number is the tier. So I knew that that 106% energy shield was hybrid because it shows P2 + P4, meaning that that 106 is made up of a % mod and a hybrid % mod Another way is to learn the second half of the hybrid, if that makes sense. I can generally tell when I've rolled a hybrid ES, even without pressing Alt, because I see the "increased stun and block recovery" mod - that's another indicator that it's a hybrid modifier. Let me know if that answered your question!

[@handsomejohnjohn]

@@Lolcohol awesome. thanks

[@happyhippyhitlerpro-hatesa1247]

@@Lolcohol i had the same question and yes, totally got it now

[@martinmystery4610]

what's the difference between "% increased X" and "% increased maximum X"?

[@Lolcohol]

Some modifiers, like resistances, have a natural maximum amount. For example, resistances are capped at 75%. If you get something that says "+3% maximum lightning resistance", you're able to get your lightning res to 78% (provided you have enough resistance to meet that cap) In terms of things like life/ES - I'm not sure why it's often worded as "to maximum life". Maybe there's a reason for it but I've never thought about it!

[@aska221]

What does a modifier do? Lets say it says 50% increased phys damage on my weapon. It applies to my weapons physical damage. Makes sense But what if it says 10% increased fire damage on my weapon. But I don't have any flat fire damage rolled on it? Does the increased fire damage do nothing? What if it says increased damage on my necklace? Does it apply to my weapon, my spells, my attacks, or nothing at all?

[@Thomas-ic7me]

[@mcshwami9009]

I see you didn't even bother trying to pronounce Citaquqlwpdjenalnw

[@Lolcohol]

Haha I did, and then realised I said "KITA KOTTLE" instead of how the Google lady said it

[@hamzahussain7794]

So if a rare item can have 3 prefix and 3 suffix, where do the hybrid mods go. Does the hybrid mod take up a prefix slot or a suffix slot? Or is it a seperate slot altogether and you can have 3 prefix and 3 suffix along with it. Sorry for basic question, maybe I am overthinking this.

[@Lolcohol]

Don't apologise for asking a question A hybrid mod only takes up ONE mod slot. So hybrid armour/life is a prefix that adds flat life and armour, but it's only one mod :) It's not a separate mod so you CAN'T have 3 prefixes 3 suffixes AND 7th mod that's a hybrid - hybrids still fall under prefixes and suffixes. Let me know if that makes sense!
